Abode Café brings a Fresh Brew to Ballyclare Main Street

Abode Café, a new, vibrant coffee destination has recently opened its doors on Ballyclare’s Main Street.  Owned and run by William Newell and his family, Abode Café is set to bring a new offering to the town’s café scene, serving amazing coffee, delicious breakfast, tasty lunch options and everything in between. 

The interior design of Abode combines modern, stylish aesthetics with a cosy atmosphere, providing the perfect spot for brunch-goers and coffee aficionados alike.  The café’s Banana Toast is already proving a hit with local residents!

The Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey, Councillor Mark Cooper, congratulated the owners on the café’s opening, taking the opportunity to meet the café’s wider team and sample a coffee created by one of Abode’s talented baristas.

Mayor, Councillor Cooper commented,

“We’re delighted to see the opening of another independent small businesses in Ballyclare town.  Local businesses like Abode are vital to the character and make-up of our towns and commercial areas.  In Ballyclare, over 80% of businesses in the town centre are small or independent businesses, emphasising their significance in town.  I’d like to take the opportunity to wish William and his family every success with their new venture.”

The Council’s Economic Development Team offer support and assistance to businesses of all size, scale and sector across the Borough.
