The story of Caribou Poutine started when Michael and Lizzie met on a ski instructors course when living in Mont Tremblant, Quebec back in 2013. After discovering poutine for the first time, they became obsessed with it!

Upon returning home, two years later Michael and Elizabeth would still discuss the amazingness of poutine and could not believe how difficult it was to find here in the UK. From there they decided to start Caribou Poutine. The name 'Caribou' was chosen after the local bar where they met in Mont Tremblant! From then on, it became their mission to introduce poutine to the UK.
They started the business whilst studying at the University of Birmingham, planning throughout the winter of 2014/15 alongside their studies up until their first event in May 2015, one week after their exams finished!
Their first year was spent trading part-time in Birmingham as well as further afield in Manchester, Leeds and Oxford. Since going full time they have also bought their poutine to London, Sheffield and Cambridge.
The reaction to poutine was nothing short of incredible!

Lizzie, born and raised in Liverpool, knew the city was just screaming for poutine even if they did not know it yet! After two years of street food trading, the couple brought their business to Liverpool to set up their permanent restaurant and bring poutine to the North!
