Thanksgiving

To celebrate Thanksgiving this year, we’ll be serving a special menu for $115 per person (half price for kids) from 1pm – 8pm. Expect the likes of our signature biscuits, turkey and gravy, Col. Newsom’s ham, cranberry relish and pumpkin pie.

We’ll have some festive additions to the menu over the holiday period, and we’ll be bringing back our biscuit kits – stay tuned for more details! Reservations will open soon, but you can inquire now for larger groups for thanksgiving and the holiday season.

Holiday Punch Bowls

This holiday season, Manuela is thrilled to introduce our 2026 punch bowls, a festive way to bring everyone together. Each bowl serves 12 to 16 guests, making it the perfect centerpiece for gathering family, colleagues, or friends. Choose from four seasonal creations, like a tropical blend of aged rum, pineapple, and passionfruit, or a wintry gin bowl with fresh cranberry and citrus oleo. You can also create a custom bowl with your choice of selected ingredients.

Each punch bowl is $250. Please inquire about custom requests or substitutions, and let us help you share some Christmas spirit at Manuela.
