an independent

bar & eatery

on liverpool’s waterfront

WELCOME TO NOVA SCOTIA

We are an independent bar and atery that celebrates Liverpool’s forgotten Nova Scotia district that was an integral part of Liverpool’s maritime history.

The area now known as Mann Island, was until the early part of the 20th Century a shanty town and dock, known as Nova Scotia due to its twinning with the Canadian district. Canada traded with Liverpool in timber used for the huge amount of shipbuilding here at this dock. As part of this twinning, there's even a Liverpool, Mann Island and River Mersey in Nova Scotia, Canada.

Liverpool's Nova Scotia gradually got replaced as the docks developed and shipbuilding moved to Birkenhead with the district largely forgotten ...until now.
