Topic: Bars/Clubs in town

[Sir Afghan]

Bad list that,some half decent pubs and one or two belters but generally shit

Not sure about that. The following are all good places for a pint in my opinion:

The Dispensary - Renshaw Street
The Belvedere - Sugnall Street, Liverpool 
Ye Cracke - Rice Street, Liverpool
The Caledonia - Catharine Street
The Pilgrim - Pilgrim Street
The Fly In The Loaf - Hardman Street
The Ship & Mitre - Dale Street
Baltic Fleet - 33A Wapping
Peter Kavanagh’s - Egerton Street
Bier - Newington Temple
The Roscoe Head - Roscoe St
The Excelsior - Dale St
Ma Egerton's - Pudsey St
Thomas Rigby's - Dale St
Ye Hole In The Wall - Hackins Hey

And a good number of those i've not listed above i've not drank in so i can't say. Of those i have drank in i'd only say the following two aren't the best:

The Grapes -  Mathew Street
The Albert Hotel - Lark Lane

[Mad Max]

No Kozys on the list?

[gregor]

No idea why the Matthew Street Grapes is on the list.

I've drank in 21 of those 24 - and one of the ones I haven't is in Birkenhead and therefore has no business being on the list.

History more than anything I guess.

[youll never walk alone it]

Wall to wall milf in there innit?

[Sir Afghan]

Yeah grab-a-granny in there.

[red_Mark1980]

Unusually for me there is a home game, I'm in Liverpool but not at the game.

Where's a good spot for the game (thinking somewhere reasonably quiet possibly with a guest ale or two).

I.e. like the Vernon, but with better screen visibility

[Sir Afghan]

Fly in the loaf got a few screens and good beer.

Might be an option. I'd be perfectly happy in the Vernon if I could control how many others came in and where they stood

Cross Keys is not far from Vernon.

[red_Mark1980]

Cross Keys is not far from Vernon.

Less about the location to be honest. Always found the cross keys a bit like a chain pub if I'm honest.

Forgive me, but does Rigbys or Ye Hole have a screen? Never been in when a game is on.

Thanks!

[diaspora]

Rigby will have Sky games so Villa is ok. Gets busy though so viewing might be just like Vernon. Excelsior is also worth a shout

[gregor]

Yeah the Excelsior never seems to get as busy as other pubs round there, probably a good shout. Plenty of screens too.

Cheers fella

[GiorgosCarraGoonies]

I second the Fly in the Loaf shout.

Just a boss pub.



Side note, anyone know what the deal is with Dawson's old music shop across from Central station?  Looks like they've put a bar in there now.

Yeah, I saw that new bar there too and was a bit worried Dawsons had shut down until someone told me that Dawsons has just moved to Williamson Street.

[Jonathan Hall ☆☆☆☆☆☆]

That new bar looks shite.

The Lion on Moorfields is decent for ale and the game.

[SamAteTheRedAcid]

It's decent that new Dawsons. Lots of cool toys to try out.

[Robotforaday]

The Lion on Moorfields is decent for ale and the game.

The Lion is a fine pub, always enjoyed it there. Go there quite regularly because there's a folk music thing there once a month. But for some reason never really saw it as a pub where you could watch the match.

[Jonathan Hall ☆☆☆☆☆☆]

The normal dodgy satellite with two tellies in bar and one in the back room on Tithebarn St side.

Not mention the awesome pork pies...in fact probably the last pub in Liverpool you can get a 'pie and a pint'...check our the glass domed ceiling in the back room...

[Jonathan Hall ☆☆☆☆☆☆]

It also has a lantern that they haven't put back up since the upside down xmas tree came down.

[Lee J]

We went to the Razz for the first time in years on Saturday night, bloody hell it's changed!  No stinking smelly carpet to stick to anymore and very very cheap ale.  Nice queue waiting to get in when we were leaving at 3:30am, think it must be open until 5?  I would have prefered to pop into Salt Dog Slims but we were a big group.

Given the above information, you wont be suprised to find that I really like the Grapes on Mathew Street; load of characters in there and FUN to be had with others other than in your own group.

On the subject - the Belvedere does a boss pork pie.

[Sir Afghan]

Didn't know the Belvedere did pork pies. I will be partaking in a pie next time i'm in there.

[gregor]

Be warned - they're massive. Defo one to share.

[Sir Afghan]

I like a challenge!

We should make it a regular night out, better than sitting in the KC all night. Plus we get to see you and Tom dancing!

My first thought as well. 

Maybe he's doing a double shift behind the bar, or sticking flyers through doors.

Disappointed he hasn't been in yet.  He's slipping

The good ole' days. 70p for a nice warm pint in the Raz when we used to go of a Monday about 4-5 years ago

Ha yeah i was going about the same time. I enjoyed JMU night as well - think that was on a Tuesday. Basically every night was fun time in the Raz.
