Pircio

Pircio is a restaurant in Market Square, Bishop’s Stortford, with a menu that draws on Italian, Turkish, Greek and wider Mediterranean cooking. It is the sort of place people talk about for its size and setting as much as for the food: a large converted church with distinctive Turkish decor, giving the dining room plenty of character. The menu runs from pasta and grilled meats to seafood, with brunch, lunch and dinner all served. There are cocktails, coffee and desserts, plus vegetarian options, and it’s set up for different kinds of visit, from family meals to larger groups. Live sport is shown too, so it can be a lively place to eat and watch the game. The restaurant also takes bookings, offers delivery and takeaway, and has a children’s menu. Outdoor seating adds another option in warmer weather, and the venue is wheelchair accessible. If you’re planning a meal in Bishop’s Stortford, Pircio suits those after a sit-down dinner, a daytime bite or something to collect on the move.
