Maray Bold Street is the original Maray restaurant, located at 91 Bold Street in central Liverpool. Inspired by the cultural energy of Paris’s Le Marais district, it serves Mediterranean and Middle Eastern small plates in a warm, relaxed room. Walk ins are welcome, while a small private dining room can accommodate special occasions.
The menu is designed for sharing, with vegetables, grains, cheese, seafood and meat arranged into contrasting plates. Disco cauliflower with tahini and pomegranate has become a signature, joined by falafel, halloumi, braised carrots, oyster mushroom shawarma, lentil mejadara, sea bass and fried chicken. Warm pitta and dips help tie a selection together.
A large portion of the menu is plant based, and most dishes are gluten free or can be adapted. That balance makes the restaurant particularly useful for mixed groups without treating dietary choices as a separate experience. Allergies should still be discussed with the team because the sharing format and kitchen preparation create opportunities for cross contact.
Cocktails use fruit, herbs and spices that echo the food, while a carefully chosen wine list supports a longer meal. A weekday lunch menu offers a concise introduction to the same style. Maray Bold Street combines generous Liverpool hospitality with a menu whose identity comes from vegetables, bold seasoning and the pleasure of passing plates around the table.
