Background and history of Park Bistro, Linlithgow
The Park Bistro & Restaurant was born on 8th June 2005, after a lot of time, expense, effort, thought & sleepless nights! Long history with the Park Farm The Waddell family have farmed at the Park Farm in Linlithgow since 1924. Back then it was a very mixed farm with cattle, sheep, tatties, barley, oats, turnips, sugar beet and wheat. Local farm produce forms a large part of the ingredients in the restaurant and every opportunity is made to use seasonally available meats and vegetables from surrounding farms. Converted cattle shed became The Park Bistro & Restaurant The shed which now houses 'The Park Bistro' was originally built as a cattle shed some 200 years ago. It was then converted into a hay and straw store in the 1950's. The last use of the shed in 2004 was as a store for our friend Arnaud, who is a genuine 'Onion Johnny' - as a store of his French onions, shallots and garlic which he then sold onto the restaurants and delis of Scotland.
