Hello, I’m Vicky North.
I founded Bird on the back of my experience, running a cafe and cooking around the clock. We cooked from scratch and sourced with care. It takes skill and intuition to create a beautiful dish from humble ingredients. I wanted Bird to celebrate these precious culinary skills, used every day by women cooking at home, cooking professionally - cooking for the sheer love of it.

More than anything, Bird is about the female experience. Cooking from a female perspective. After the cafe closed, I spent a year working on a Women in Food interview series. I spoke to women across the UK who loved to cook. Many cooked for their families. Some ran supper clubs, Michelin restaurants, market stalls, bakeries. All were united by their love for real food. And I came to learn that women bring a unique perspective to food. A style that lacks ego and focuses on flavour and real ingredients.

Bird is here to celebrate real food and serve the women who make it, with strong design and a whole lot of love.
