Fresh, raw and cooked meals, delivered from our kitchen to yours.
Because they’re part of the family, they deserve to eat real food too. Processed dog food has the same effect on dogs as junk food has on humans. What if your dog could eat delicious meals that fulfil their natural dietary requirements? Here are just some of the benefits you will see after feeding natural fresh food.
Never wonder what’s in your dog food again – see whole ingredients, that are 100% fresh, and feel comfortable knowing that no artificial ingredients, preservatives, chemicals, or fillers are in your dog’s bowl. Goodbye, mysterious balls of kibble.
Popeye was right; eating Spinach helps build strong muscles and promotes better health. Your dog can’t scarf canned Spinach like the Sailor Man, but a fresh diet produces the same benefits.
Switching to fresh, highly digestible, human-grade food results in fewer and smaller stools. Food is digested properly, nutrients are directly absorbed, and you get poop bags for days.
Fresh, nutrient-rich diets with essential fatty acids (usually a combination of omega 3, 6 and 9) improves skin and hydrate coats, leaving dogs coats so soft you’ll never want to kick them out of bed.
Dogs with chronic conditions such as allergies, skin irritation, or sensitive tummies also find relief on a fresh dog diet (free of the artificial additives that cause these conditions) and report fewer costly vet visits. Think of all the squeaky balls you could buy with the money you’ll save!
Switching your dog to a fresh food diet helps maintain a healthy body weight, which has been linked to a 20% longer lifespan. Just like human diets, we know that better nutrition is the clearest path to a longer life!
“Raw food has shown in millions of cases to make our pets obviously and measurably healthier”

✨ Customer Spotlight ✨
Meet Ivan 💛 This handsome boy is usually a very picky eater with a sensitive tummy. Mealtimes were often a challenge… until his pawrent Charlotte tried our JUST Beef Tripe Mince Raw Dog Food.
Here’s what she had to say:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“He was excited by the smell as soon as it arrived. He has eaten 2kg of it within the last 16 hours and hasn’t had any tummy issues. A few weeks on, he’s still eating consistently, asks for his food every day, and licks his bowl clean.”
We’re so happy to see Ivan thriving on his new meals 🐾💚

What a kind review from Tiernan and his lovely cats Jasper & Willow, this made our day! 😌
“I came across barkinBISTRO when looking for raw cat food suppliers in Northern Ireland. When I saw their price point and clearly defined focus on nutrition and quality, I took the leap and ordered the minimum quantity. I am so glad that I did!
I have two young cats, Jasper and Willow. As a kitten Jasper had great difficulty digesting his food and even on prescription diets he had an upset stomach consistently. This left him dehydrated and a little small for his age. I found some forums and posts singing raw food’s praises and how it helped their cats turn a corner. I was uncertain, but there was no other choice as everything else had failed. When we first got the food my cats were a little hesitant, as all cats are with new things, but they quickly have grown to love it. Even by only using raw food 50% of the time, the difference has been amazing. Jasper has gained weight and his fur is no longer strewn with dandruff. Willow has never been happier, if she had her way it would only be barkinBISTRO!
The change has been amazing and now the stomach issues have vanished. Both cats have better stools: firm, less odour and much less frequent. As indoor cats, this has greatly improved their owner’s lives too ☺️ If you can relate to any of the what I have written above I would definitely recommend trying this out, it may work for your cats too!
Also the service from barkinBISTRO has been stellar, the delivery time is extremely quick and they will call directly if there are any issues - one of the benefits of supporting local family businesses! Their products are well packaged and I would advise getting the smaller 400g packets in the chicken flavour as it seems to go down best. An adult cat needs around 2/3% of body weight per day in raw food so usually around 100g-125g per cat per day on full time raw diet. Also, for storage I would advise transferring to a plastic container for storage in the fridge.
Overall I would recommend barkinBISTRO, as would Jasper and Willow!” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
