The former Royal Daffodil has undergone a £3.5m renovation
A multi-million pound renovation of a historic Mersey Ferry into a floating restaurant and bar space is to officially open to the public next month. For more than six decades, the MV Royal Daffodil took thousands of passengers across the river connecting Liverpool and the Wirral before being decommissioned and falling into disrepair. Renamed Daffodil, the £3.5m project is being fronted by directors Josh Boyd and Philip Borg-Olivier, the former Brookside actor.
Mr Boyd said: “We’re thrilled to announce that Daffodil will be ready to welcome guests in December. We’ve poured our hearts into restoring this iconic vessel and can’t wait to introduce it to the people of Liverpool and visitors from around the world.” Bookings are now open to dine on the Daffodil, with the 126-cover restaurant offering located on the main deck of the ship.
