QUIRKY FARM BISTRO
FOOD MADE AND SERVED WITH LOVE
The Quirky Farm Bistro is a small independent Bistro run by myself, Lise, and my business partner Fabrizio.
We opened the Quirky Farm Bistro on November 2018, i ran a restaurant for 15 years in Antigua and decided to move to the UK to continue doing what i love.
We both have different backgrounds, Fabrizio is Italian who was blessed with a mother that loved to cook and was brought up with good home cooking (he makes a good Bolognese sauce and arancini just like mama).
I am from Antigua, my grandmother was from Cheshire and was a fantastic cook, my mother owns a restaurant in Antigua and Barbuda for over 30 years, so I am blessed with the influence from the Caribbean and the North of England.
Our food is made with love and a lot of passion. Food is a big part of our lives.
We want you to enjoy your experience with us.
We cook and serve from our hearts and souls and want all our customers to feel welcomed, relaxed, and leave happy.
Our Quirky Bistro is different and unique, as well as our menu.
We are your personal chef and servers.
Your food is made from our hearts from this kitchen to your table served with love.
