About Us

Welcome to Byrne Dairy & Deli!

Dairy products and eggs on a table.

Byrne Dairy & Deli is a third-generation, family-owned company that has been in the dairy business since 1933. With a focus on homegrown quality, we started out bottling and delivering milk to New York families by horse-drawn wagons. In the late 1970s, we expanded our product line to include our own line of ice cream. Today, families throughout the Northeast and all along the East Coast enjoy Byrne Dairy milk, ice cream, and other products for their freshness and flavor.

In addition to producing an array of quality products, Byrne Dairy & Deli also operates over 80 convenience stores throughout Upstate New York, the first of which opened in Central Square, NY, in 1954.

Throughout the years, Byrne Dairy & Deli convenience stores have grown in size and product offerings. Many stores now include pizza, ice cream shops, and gas pumps. We’ve also introduced our own deli, serving fresh sandwiches, salads, pizza, wings, hamburgers, and more. Shelby's Donuts is another Byrne Dairy & Deli creation, with many stores now carrying donuts and cookies, fresh from our own bakery, located in Syracuse!
