"At Carlisi, our customers are our friends and our staff are our family. We want to do everything we can to make them happy."
If you’ve never visited Carlisi on Dale Street, it’s safe to say you’re missing out on some of the best Italian food and drink in the city. Brothers Alessio and Federico started their business back in 2018 with the dream of bringing authentic Italian food, drinks and service to the people of Liverpool. Known for their exceptional service, the brothers go above and beyond to ensure that every customer has an experience to remember, whether they’re calling in for a quick coffee or spending an evening indulging in a deli platter and a bottle of the finest Italian wine.
Authenticity is also important to the Carlisi brothers. “We import a lot of our products directly from suppliers around Italy and we’re proud of our heritage. Our arancini are handmade in Sicily by a member of the Carlisi family, and we import the finest cheese, wine and meat from the best Italian suppliers.”
Carlisi recently decided to bring their own slice of Sicily to the UK – Agrigento Gin, named after their hometown. Every batch is hand-prepared by a member of the Carlisi family using authentic Italian ingredients and distilled locally using traditional methods. The aroma of fresh Sicilian lemons and hints of zesty orange combine with a pinch of sea salt, taking us on a journey from the mountains to the Mediterranean.
“When you’re young you long to see the world, but as you get older you yearn for the taste of home. At Carlisi we blend our proud Sicilian heritage with our presence here in Liverpool. We’ve been sharing flavours of our hometown through our food for years, and now we want a reminder on every shelf!”
