Our Story

Faino is a Ukrainian word for something good, beautiful, or done just right. It’s the feeling you get when a meal is made with care, the company is warm, and you want to stay a little longer. That feeling is what we hope to share.

Faino began with a simple idea: to bring people together through food, culture, and art. We imagined a place where you could come for a meal and find more than something to eat. You might discover a new dish, meet someone, or spend an evening painting with a glass of wine in hand.

Our crêpes were the first way we brought that idea to the table. We took inspiration from Ukrainian food and combined it with flavours from across Europe, giving familiar dishes a new way to be enjoyed. It’s our invitation to be curious: order something you know, then discover it in a way you haven’t tasted before.

A crêpe was just one way to share our love of food. We also wanted to bring more of Ukraine to the table: the dishes we grew up with, the flavours we missed, and the joy of sitting down to a generous meal together. That’s why, when evening comes, Faino becomes a restaurant serving traditional Ukrainian food.

We wanted that same care to reach beyond our tables, too. Our ready-to-eat meals bring Faino into your home on the days when cooking feels like one thing too many. All you need to do is heat them, sit down, and enjoy.

Come in for a crêpe, stay for dinner, or take a little Faino home. However you get to know us, we’d love to share what we make with you.

Our Philosophy 

Faino is built on the idea that the best things in life are created together.

It’s not about competition — it’s about connection.

We don’t try to be better than others.

We try to be better than we were yesterday.

With our community, we shape everything — from food to art to experiences.

Our guests are not just visitors — they are part of the creation.

Together, we create something meaningful:

better food, better moments, a better everyday life.
