Ma Boyle’s Alehouse and Eatery and Nova Scotia have revealed their mouthwatering Christmas 2024 menus.
At both locations three courses of fabulous festive feasting are back, featuring a selection of classic choices which are perfect for sharing Christmas with family, friends and colleagues. Favourites like a classic prawn cocktail and pigs in blankets star alongside pan-friend seabass, turkey crown, slow roasted beef brisket and a lentil and winter vegetable roast. And don’t forget four mouth-watering desserts, too. Ma Boyle’s and Nova Scotia can host intimate get-togethers to bigger group bookings this Christmas.
Iain Hoskins, Ma Pub Group’s director, says: “We’re back with our festive menu for Ma Boyle’s and Nova Scotia. Myself and the team are incredibly proud of this year’s offering, packed full of tantalising choices to make the festive season special. We’re all about affordable quality this Christmas, so three courses for £35 feels like the sweet-spot for our fantastic food.”
Tucked away off Water Street and nestled by the beautiful St Nick’s church gardens, Ma Boyle’s has seen the city change all around it whilst staying true to its historic maritime roots. In January 2024 Iain and the team celebrated 50 years of Ma’s in Tower Gardens; it’s a place which always embraces the magic of the festive season. Ma’s is also perfect to catch up with friends at lunch through to listening to the latest jazz sounds over the weekend, through to fabulous Sunday roasts, cocktails and delicious hearty food day and night. Indeed, Ma’s roasts legendary in Liverpool and widely regarded as one of the city’s finest. Ma Boyle’s Christmas menu is available from Monday 25 November to Monday 23 December.
And set over in the stunning Mann Island building in the shadow of the Museum of Liverpool and the spectacular Three Graces, Nova Scotia captures the city’s maritime past on Liverpool’s iconic waterfront. Nova will welcome guests this Christmas to their bustling dockside location, which also offers brilliant breakfasts, delicious lunches, small plates, hearty mains and deserts with a wide range of drinks and signature cocktails. Nova Scotia’s festive menu is available from Monday 18 December to Sunday 22 December.
