Tempest on Tithebarn has announced the return of its Small Plates Big Christmas feasting for the festive season in 2023 in Liverpool.
The menu has been enriched with some brand-new choices, including coconut prawns, salt and pepper chicken bites, and mushroom pate, with classics like Pigs in Blankets, Halloumi Winter Logs, and Brussels sprouts (with optional bacon) returning. The menu is available to book from Monday, November 6th, all the way to Wednesday, December 20th, 2023.
Iain Hoskins, Ma Pub Group’s director, says:
“We’re all very excited at Tempest to approach our third Christmas and welcome back our small plates menu for the festive season. As always, we’re focused on affordable quality and for Christmas we feel we’ve got the perfect choice for big and small groups alike to share and indulge with us. Liverpool really comes alive like no other place I know during Christmas, and we feel the magic is really coming back in a big way. So for friends, families and colleagues, we’re got you more than covered this Xmas. And paired with our fabulous food, we’ve got a range of craft beers, cracking cocktails and plenty of wine and fizz too, along with our great soft drinks and mocktails.”
Tempest is also hosting two Christmas Bottomless Brunches on Saturday, December 2nd and Saturday, December 16th. The venue can be booked for a variety of festive events in the Kol Box, Atrium, Main Bar, and Library, or any combination together depending on the date.
Launched in in May 2021, Tempest on Tithebarn pays homage loving to New York’s meatpacking district eateries, with stone walls and bare wood with lots of natural lighting in the ground-floor open plan restaurant and bar. There’s an intimate subterranean club space with huge potential for parties, to one of the city’s best roof-top views – 7 storeys high – which looks out across Liverpool with incredible views on sunny days. Tempest even has its own colony of bees, whose honey is used in the restaurant.
