🇮🇹 About Us

Rooted in Sicily, reinvented in Manchester.

At Sicilian NQ, everything begins with a love for the island – its flavours, its stories, its way of gathering people around a table. Our mission is simple: to bring the warmth and authenticity of Sicily into the heart of Manchester.

We are a restaurant, a pasticceria, a shop, and an experience – all in one.

🍋 A celebration of Sicilian culture

From the crispy arancini and creamy pistachio desserts to our vegan-friendly caponata, every dish is inspired by traditional recipes passed down through generations. But we don’t just serve food – we share a way of life that values community, simplicity, and joy.

🛍️ A Sicilian market, online and in-store

We also offer a curated selection of handmade products and experiences through our shop:

  • 🎂 Custom celebration cakes (including vegan & gluten-free options)
  • 🎁 Gift vouchers for meals, masterclasses or sweet moments
  • 🍸 Cocktail boxes with signature recipes to enjoy at home
  • 🍝 Artisanal sauces and pestos, prepared in-house with natural ingredients

Everything we sell is vegetarian or vegan, and made with care – just like we would prepare it at home in Sicily.

🍷 Experiences that bring people together

Sicilian NQ is also the home of our Wine & Cocktail School, where we host interactive events: tasting dinners, cocktail workshops, and team-building nights. Whether you’re a local or visiting, you’ll find a little piece of the island waiting for you here.


💛 More than a restaurant

Sicilian NQ is a space where food, tradition, and innovation meet.

Whether you’re here for a pistachio dessert, a vegan dinner, or a gift that tells a story, we welcome you with open arms – and full plates.
