Maray in Liverpool

45 min wait for starters (a single plate of dips when we ordered for four portions!) and then all small plates came out with huge gaps of up to half an hour. Was advised to order 2 small plates each but in most case one plate was eaten long before the second plate arrived leaving us eating braised carrots or disco cauliflower on its own. Ordered lager and got pale ale. But there was lager on the menu. 1 sharer starter was knocked off bill to compensate for the wait but still not a great experience. Food was good when it eventually arrived.

We went to have our lunch for Bank Holiday Monday. It was a long time since we have been, but to say we were pleased was an understatement. The food was outstanding, cannot pick a best as it was all lovely. The staff member was so attentive, so sorry we did not get her name. I would recommend anyone visits to enjoy Maray

We had a wonderful time at Maray. The food was completely delicious - especially the cauliflower - and we will certainly be returning.

All we can say is… Wow! What a meal! Honestly it was perfect from start to finish. Lovely friendly staff too. The food was incredible, the cauliflower of course, but also we had the whipped Goats cheese, the mushroom dish and the sea bass… oh my goodness me the flavours with the sea bass. Delicious wine too. Next time we are in Liverpool we will definitely be coming back here. Thank you Team Maray!

A delicious dinner with friendly, knowledgable service. Excellent!

Attentive staff, nice relaxed atmosphere. Plenty of vegetarian/ vegan options. We shared hummus/ pitta / sweet potato/ disco cauliflower. Medjool date bread and butter pudding. All excellent and would definitely recommend and return.

Superb food, service and atmosphere. Always enjoy the taste combinations you deliver so well 👏🏻

Fabulous food, friendly, knowledgeable service and buzzing atmosphere. The flavours of all our dishes were knock out, in particular the cauliflower and so colourful. If you havent been and you love food you need to go.

As ever a great meal at Maray Bold Street.

La mejor cena que tuvimos en Liverpool / Manchester y nos alojamos por una semana! Todo era tan sabroso y fresco. El personal era muy amable e hizo que toda la experiencia fuera completa. Muy recomendable!

Great mezze plates here - a good mix of options and all really delicious. Would recommend the falafel sharer!

Yet another wonderful meal at Maray Bold Street. We were early diners but already a crowd in. New summer menu is a choice fest... All absolutely delicious.. Came home with doggy bags.. So the joy goes on. Thanks Maray team 👍

Funky, intimate restaurant, serving excellent adventurous, Lebanese-influenced food. The wine list includes a large, inspired and inventive selection of wines by the glass. Friendly, professional service.

This was my first time trying a Mediterranean restaurant, and Maray didn’t disappoint! Not only was the food delicious, but the coffee was surprisingly good too. I didn’t get a chance to try the desserts, but based on everything else, I’m sure they’re great as well. The menu features lots of flavorful vegetable-based dishes, along with a few meat and fish options. I especially enjoyed the goat cheese with crispy fish and cauliflower—such a tasty combo! Mixing and matching the dishes was part of the fun. The staff were warm and helpful, making the whole experience even better. If you’re looking to explore Mediterranean cuisine, I highly recommend giving this place a try.

Tuvimos un tiempo encantador visitando a nuestra hija en la universidad y tener una comida con ella. Tenía un plato para compartir y era suficiente para una comida si no te gustan los platos pequeños. Pero al marido y a la hija les encantaba compartirlas. Los cócteles eran fantásticos. El pequeño restaurante era acogedor y tenía un interior cálido, nuestro servidor era encantador y no podría haber sido mejor!

The small plates in this restaurant are sensational, really packed full of flavour and well thought out. The whole ambience of the place was relaxed with warm lighting, we were sat at a bar table seat as there were no table seats left when I made the booking. We really enjoyed sitting at the bar right beside the kitchen, being able to see the food being made and the cocktails being served. The highlight of the whole meal was the carrot with tahini and bitter grapes, sharp, creamy, earthy and delicious. Everything was cooked really well and looked great on the plate. The only thing we didn't like at all was the baklava cheesecake, the raspberry was too sharp on top and full of seeds, the cake itself was not sweet enough to balance this. All being said we can't wait to go back.

Good food good value good service But I feel if I’m spending a decent amount of money to be asked to vacate table after 75 minutes is actually insulting. That’s more than £1/minute. At least give a two hour slot guys otherwise it’s just greedy.

Great visit to Maray Bold Street

One of THE best places to eat in Liverpool. Intimate but with a sociable vibe. Fantastic, friendly but professional service. Food is creative and the flavours are to die for !

A small plates place, which is itself small. Need to book! Populated by an adoring crowd who know the menu which is good because the lighting is of low wattage. Food is OK, service is OK. It’s an OK place.

Fantastic place to eat Tasty food Lunch menu had excellent choices and the servings are generous Our server was lovely and recommended the perfect wine to drink on a sunny day We will return

Excellent food choices (for 2 veggies) all our choices were outstanding - highly recommend disco cauliflower and whipped goat cheese. Staff really friendly and knowledgeable about the food and we thought great value for money. Highly recommend Maray - please visit

Fabulous food and looked after by the amazing Erin.

Another visit to Maray. Food, cocktails, wine : all delicious. We dined pre-theatre at 1630 and the atmosphere was great, not too loud but nicely buzzing. The staff were lovely.

Wonderful food, great service . Good choice for vegetarians . Delicious . Highly recommend .

Great food, service and cocktails.

Nice place for a good quality meal. Staff are very helpful if you've not eaten here before with advice on the menu.

Delicious, high-quality food! Everything was super well seasoned!

What the actual… The flavours, my good god, the flavours! Everything was exceptional. The staff super helpful and knowledgeable. Go hungry, you will not be disappointed

Gorgeous! The food was amazing, the inside was cute, great service, and the atmosphere was very nice. Don’t miss the cauliflower & the lamb, definitely the highlights for me.

One of my favourite restaurants, best one in the chain. My daughter introduced us to the place a few years ago and every time we visit Liverpool it’s our must go to restaurant. Food 10/10 and staff relations amazing 🤩 lady has been there 5 years, friendly, welcoming and knows everything about the wine list.

Just delicious food and great service in a relaxed setting and big shout out to our great waitress (red bob) she really helped us navigate through the menu and wine. An absolute must if you are in Liverpool!

Very nice spot to eat healthy !! Go there closed eyes !

Amazing place. Small plates take some time to get used to to be fair but food is always fresh, great choice with specials.

Sinceramente, nos ha encantado Maray desde que abrió y nunca ha disminuido. Solo necesito decir, el shawarma de hongos - ¡guau! No pensé que nada podría superar a los famosos culi disco, pero este es un contendiente, delicioso! Estábamos felices de sentarnos al final de la larga mesa que tuvo una gran fiesta en el otro extremo en nuestra visita más reciente, el ambiente siempre es genial. El personal trae la comida a la mesa con orgullo, y con razón! Como vegetariano y comedor de carne, este es nuestro lugar favorito en Liverpool para una comida informal de platos pequeños y buen vino, ¡muy recomendable!

Great food and a good atmosphere. Our table was too dark to read the menu and the waitress, though civil, did leave us feeling she disliked us. We would return and recommend though.

Buena comida, pero ten cuidado de comprobar los precios de la garrafa. Redujeron el precio después de que hice una pregunta.

Amazing food and staff, as always! One of our favourite places to eat in Liverpool!

Love plants? You’ll get plenty here in one sitting with superb flavour combos. Disco cauliflower is a must.

This place was incredible: we thought it was the best meal we have ever had at this price point. Great service and a lovely atmosphere. But, most importantly, truly outstanding food. Every dish was absolutely delicious and memorable. Worth travelling to Liverpool just to eat at Maray.

The 4 stars for the food would have been 5 star only for the Goats cheese which wasn't very nice, however the rest of our food was absolutely delicious. The service is amazing, the staff are very attentative and know their menu. The atmosphere is good. My only criticism, which is the reason why I won't return on an evening, is that the long table in the middle of the room is far too cosy, leaving you sitting far to close to people you don't know. It is a little to intimate and made us feel a little uncomfortable throughout our meal. Luckily the couple at the end of our table left and nobody else was booked in so we were able to move along slightly creating a bit of space to relax. The Albert Dock restaurant has much better seating arrangements.

Delicious food and a really enjoyable evening. The open line booking is really simple too, thanks for making life easy.

really lovely food and vibes- would definitely go back !

In the heart of Liverpool's bustling Bold St, Maray is a cosy restaurant with fantastic food. We loved the mezze platter and the disco cauliflower. Great service too

Cenamos temprano aquí esta noche. Servicio estupendo, comida excelente, carta de vinos interesante y gran ambiente. Recomendaría el Falafel Sharer, y el vino tinto de Macedonia del Norte. El Dopiaza de Garbanzos estaba muy bien condimentado, la manzana encurtida en medio del queso de cabra batido le dio otro nivel. La pitta tiene un hermoso borde carbonizado / ahumado. Toda la comida era fresca y muy bien presentado. El pudín de pan y dátiles también vale la pena, y el vino de postre libanés fue una buena manera de terminar. Consíguete reservar, no te arrepentirás. 125 libras por 4 con vino.

Fantastic meal at this cosy restaurant. Every dish was delicious. We had the mezze sharing dish, 2 vegetarian dishes and 2 meat dishes. Wonderful place and staff were so attentive and friendly. Great cocktails too!

Delicious meal and really nice staff. Great Middle Easter flavours.

Fui aquí con mi hermana y dos sobrinas ya que era uno de sus cumpleaños. Es un poco 'escupido y aserroso' para mi gusto habitual y podría haber sido un poco más cálido, pero he dado 5 estrellas porque la comida era increíble! Mi sobrina pidió, como lo había hecho antes y los platos pequeños me dejan confundida ya que algunos siempre son mucho más pequeños que otros, así que necesitas saberlo! Todo lo que teníamos era delicioso... Me encantó y sin duda volvería. El vino Malbec también estaba muy bien. Servicio excelente.

Absolutely delicious food, I was so sad when I started to get full as I really wanted to keep going! The service was great as well. My absolute favourite restaurant in Liverpool!!

This was a lovely atmosphere, and although we only had a few small plates it was beautiful. Xx

was taken well care of friendly staff

The cod,carrots, and cauliflower wre outstanding.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Favorite meal of my trip to Liverpool. Cauliflower should not be this good!

Best place for vegetarian and vegan food. Tried many dishes and everything was awesome 👍🏽

Had never been before, but will definitely come back. Food and atmosphere was fabulous. Staff were so helpful. Amazing.

We found this place on Google Maps and booked in for lunch the next day. They had a special offer for January, all vegan dishes were 50% off. We tried all of the vegan small plates and thoroughly enjoyed everything. The cocktails were fab too! Very helpful staff and great atmosphere. Loved it 🥰

Fab food and lovely place to visit, never disappoints

Absolutely love this place. Service amazing, food incredible

Great restaurant - interesting selection of food and cocktails. Based on last visit would particularly recommend lamb arayes and the redbush old fashioned. Also is a good restaurant for those with vegan requirements with plenty of choice in that area. Service great. Ambience great. We had a great Friday night there.

Excellent - only drawback was the time limit - we could easily have stayed all night!

Love this restaurant. Great food , great staff.

We booked a large table on Sunday for a special birthday and they did not disappoint. The food was incredible as was the wine , service and general atmosphere. Thank you Maray for making the day so enjoyable

Good food and service! Everything I've tried was really good! I've been to the one in Bold Steet twice this month. I just found out there is one closer to me which is in the Albert Dock so I will go there bext time as it seems they also have a more extensive menu on weekend. My favorite is the crispy sea bass!! Bhadji is also very good. Ox cheek is gokd but portuon is too small. Falafels are very good too. For one person, 2 plates seem enough. I have tried the baklava cheese cake but it doesn't stand out to me. I'd stick to the savoury ones. It was always easy to grab a table but probably the one in Albert Dock would need booking ahead.

. As a party of four we joined forces and tried most things on the vegetarian menu.

Great food and lovely atmosphere 👌

Nice enough place. Relaxed atmosphere and service good. It’s small plate Middle Eastern food. Everything I had was nice. Would I say it was outstanding, no. I would probably suggest having perhaps 2 mains and 1 side each and you can do a bit of sharing.

Food was nice but they charge for tap water! Outrageous and not sure how they can get away with it as they serve alcohol and so are legally required to provide tap water free of charge. My friend and I attended to take advantage of the half price on veggie food deal which is on throughout January. It came to £30 in total for two (including £3 for a 750ml bottle of tap water...) so if paying normal price it would definitely be out of a normal or even reasonable range for vegetarian food as it was almost all plant-based with just one cheese-based dish. Also, they try and advertise themselves as a plant-based venue but they do serve meat and fish products. The staff member who served us was not terribly friendly either. Although it was tasty food, I wouldn't pay £60 for it. And won't be going back after the tap water charge.

Lovely tasty meal, lunchtime menu, 3 small plates each, more than enough with a shared pudding. Goats cheese and pitta bread, cauliflower bhajis, disco Cauliflower (outstanding) sea bass, fried chicken, sweet potatoes, baklava cheesecake! Friendly staff, great atmosphere! What else can I say!

Genuinely one of the best places I've had lunch in a long time. Fast and friendly service, gorgeous atmosphere and superior food at a reasonable price. I'm a veggie a.d my partner isn't. We botb loved the food options and are looking forward to visiting the Manchester branch soon.

Always a great, delicious meal at Maray!

We had our first visit to Maray on Monday 30th December and absolutely loved it! All dishes were amazing but the Disco Cauli, Whipped Goats Cheese and Oyster Mushrooms topped the charts for us both! Will definitely be returning :)

Definitely my ‘go to’ restaurant in Liverpool. Never let’s you down. Food delicious. Great drinks. Friendly, attentive staff. Recommended

We went to maray after watching a YouTube review and it did not disappoint. We was greeted by Melanie who was a superb host, helping us with our choices of small plates to share and choosing delicious cocktails. We needed help as it all looked so good . The goats cheese and flatbread was incredible, I would gladly eat it everyday , I could not describe how good. The rest of the dishes were equally good, especially the cauliflower bhaji. A lovely atmosphere,great bar area with cocktails as good as I have had anywhere. The quality of everything we received on the day was so good we will definitely go again the next time we are in Liverpool. Probably more than once as we need to try all the delicious vegetarian options on the menu , and a few more cocktails of course. If I could give more than 5 stars I would . A must go to place in a great city

A great spot at the top of Bold Street, a cosy place with a relaxed feel, great service and even greater food. The whipped goats cheese with pickled apple and herb oil has a creamy texture and an earthy flavour. The braised carrots with black garlic tahini and sour grapes are delicious and tender, and the halloumi with puy lentil salsa is salty and rich. These small plates are small masterpieces of flavour, texture and presentation, you want to savour every mouthful of each one. The service is chilled but attentive and helpful, adding to the pleasure of the experience. And a great selection of drinks too. Marat is definitely 10 out of 10 on all counts.

Lovely restaurant, great atmosphere, friendly staff and vegan menu. The disco cauliflower is awesome.

A fabulous evening here! The food was all so tasty and different - we all loved it! The service was also fantastic - really attentive and friendly. We will be trying the Manchester one soon!

Hi, Lovely time at Maray Bold Street yesterday, best meal of the Christmas going out season! Beautiful food - so many vegetarian choices - and charming service from staff. Will be back soon.

First time lunch booking, group of 7, some with special dietary requirements. All agreed the food was fantastic and the service was faultless. Will definitely book again, thanks

Tasty food and good service, recommend the mezze sharer, lamb, cod, rice and lentils and cauliflower. I personally found the food slightly salty but my boyfriend said it was fine and it's because I don't season my food lol.. The bread and butter pudding was really nice, probs my fav item.

Fantastic food yet again at Maray bold st Liverpool.Best food ever!

Everything from when we walked in and recieving a warm friendly greeting the staff were so inviting. The service I couldn't fault and the spicy margarita I had was best i have tasted. The food was incredible and every dish was delicious. Thank you for a great night, il definitely be back.

Fabulous smiley staff and great service. All achieved with a sense of humour.

Lunch deal is great value for money. Everything was really tasty.

Had an amazing meal here. Vegetables take the centre stage and everything is bursting with flavour. Bright, sweet, tangy, rich, herby, and roasty, so much going on! Particularly recommend the aubegine za-alak (think it was called). Intensely rich and savoury. If you want to eat more healthy/sustainable, plant based food but don't want to compromise in taste, this is the place.

Fantastic experience here this week. Staff were brilliant, music was great, perfect vibe, and most importantly fantastic food and drink. Everything was absolutely spot on, and can't wait to come back again soon.

I am never, ever disappointed when I visit Maray! I visited Maray Bold Street, recently, for my birthday and felt very spoilt! I used the 'birthday gift card' link I had been sent, so my bill was reduced significantly, there was a birthday card on the table from Maray and I was brought a free dessert with a candle in it! I just wish I could remember the name of the member of staff who served us, she was attentive, professional and friendly. I would recommend any of the Maray restaurants to anyone!

What an amazing restaurant. The food was fresh and tasted amazing. The cocktails were excellent and the service staff provided was top notch. My only critique would be I wish the time at table was 2 hours not 1 hour 30 mins.

The disco cauliflower is a must!! If you have room left for dessert you have to try the bread and butter pudding!

Out of this world food. Lovely atmosphere. Amazing amazing amazing. Beautiful dessert as well best I’ve ever tasted.

Exquisite food. Wonderful staff who felt like they wanted us to enjoy our visit and went above and beyond. For example, a waitress offered to rinse the plate we bought for my toddler before we put it in the bag to go home. The staff were excellent about allergens. The chef interacted with my toddler who wanted to watch him cooking. So impressed with the food and enjoyed our meal. Wish we lived in Liverpool to keep going back!

Cosy and warm, great service, fantastic food

First visit here, food off the scale! Amazing! And beautiful venue with great atmosphere!

Fantastic food, staff and atmosphere. Highly recommend and quite honestly doesn’t get much better than this!!

Maray is a new find for me and so pleased I have come across this great restaurant. Enjoyed mezze at Bold St, Liverpool and Sunday roast in Manchester. Food is so tasty with lovely flavours. Great choice. Roast dinner was very good quality, and a generous portion Serving staff in both were really helpful and friendly. Would recommend and will return myself.

Ate here with friends. It was our first visit to this restaurant but certainly won't be our last. We were all very impressed with the food, drinks, service and the atmosphere of the place. The staff were lovely and attentive. Couldn't fault it at all. 10 out of 10. Thank you

While since I've been. Was not disappointed. Food still excellent. Especially the Disco Cauliflower.

Lovely dining experience. We had the falafel sharing platter and fries with hummus. The flavours were delicious. Our waitress was great at advising about the different plates and was attentive and pleasant. Will definitely be back.

We finished our meal and sat with empty plates for 10 min, kept being ignored. We had to eventually walk to the bar to pay

Unfailingly excellent. Fabulous flavours and a relaxed ambience. Friendly, knowledgeable staff treat everyone - lone diners through to large gatherings - as special guests. Recommend highly

The food was gorgeous and the portions were very generous. We felt we got value for money and enjoyed every course.
