Located within the stylish Mannin Hotel in Douglas, Liberties Restaurant & Lounge offers a refined yet relaxed dining experience in a modern open-plan setting. Drawing inspiration from Archibald Knox — one of the Isle of Man’s most celebrated artists and the creative force behind Liberty’s iconic Art Nouveau style — the restaurant’s name and décor pay homage to his legacy, with subtle design touches that create a space both artistic and welcoming.
Overlooking Broadway and the Villa Marina, Liberties offers a light-filled, spacious environment that effortlessly transitions from day to night. Whether you're enjoying a quiet breakfast, a leisurely lunch, or an intimate evening meal, the setting is designed to put you at ease. Comfortable and contemporary, it’s a perfect spot for both hotel guests and local diners looking for quality food, good service, and a calm, stylish atmosphere.
The menu at Liberties focuses on Manx-sourced ingredients, with dishes that reflect the best of the island’s natural larder. Think perfectly cooked steaks, fresh seafood, rich desserts, and the ever-popular Sunday Roast, all prepared with care by a skilled kitchen team. The à la carte menu is available daily, while set menus are offered on special occasions and during events, providing something unique for returning guests and seasonal visitors.
Whether you're stopping in for a pre-theatre bite, celebrating a special evening, or just looking for a dependable go-to for great food in Douglas, Liberties delivers consistently high-quality cuisine with an emphasis on freshness, flavour, and local sourcing.
In addition to the main restaurant, the Liberties Lounge Bar offers a more informal setting — ideal for relaxing with a cocktail, catching up with friends over coffee, or enjoying light bites throughout the day. The drinks list includes a well-chosen selection of wines, spirits, beers, and cocktails, all served in a laid-back space that’s as suitable for socialising as it is for unwinding after a busy day.
Open to both hotel residents and the general public, Liberties Restaurant & Lounge is more than just a hotel dining option — it’s a vibrant part of the local food scene. With its central location, stylish setting, and focus on quality, it’s the perfect choice for everything from casual catch-ups to memorable meals.
Whether you’re in for breakfast, a working lunch, pre-show drinks, or a romantic dinner, Liberties invites you to take your time, enjoy the view, and savour the very best of Manx hospitality in a modern, artistic space inspired by the island’s rich heritage.
