A fixture of Paragon Avenue since 1951, this family butcher has outlasted generations of Macleay Valley shopfronts and grown into something closer to a food hall than a meat counter. The house cattle graze on a stud at Clybucca and return as Arakoon Beef; local oysters are shucked daily and the sausages have collected their share of ribbons. Alongside the glass cases sits a providore wall of marinades, rubs, chutneys, deli lines, pasta and platter supplies, plus a small cafe, Marnie's, for those who would rather have the beef cooked than carried home. It reads as the town's larder, the place visitors are sent when they ask a local where the good meat and seafood come from. Open seven days, with the counter busiest through summer when the caravan parks fill and the barbecue trade picks up.
