A cinematic experience wouldn’t be complete without a selection of refreshments, with each of the Dock restaurants taking it in turn each day to provide front row treats. Guests will be able to enjoy everything from Fish & Chips in cones from Panam, and Mojitos & Burritos from Revolucion de Cuba, to Pizza from Gusto, along with more from the likes of Maray, Tate Liverpool and Rosa’s Thai Cafe. Cocktails, wine, beer and soft drinks will also be on offer from the pop-up bar located at the back of the pontoon to keep thirsts quenched throughout the film.
