Pub Crawl in Liverpool - suggestions please!
« on: October 11, 2023, 11:42:49 pm »
Right, so my partner’s sister and her boyfriend are coming up to Liverpool this weekend to stay with us. We are going to bottomless brunch on Saturday in town, and they would then like to continue on and sample some of the many pubs in our city centre. They want us to decide on where we go because we’re the locals, but besides the Dispensary and the Grapes (Roscoe Street), I very rarely drink in town nowadays. Any suggestions? Was going to take them the Monro but just read it closes for good on Friday?!

If you're going up to the Grapes way, the Cracke is always interesting for out-of-towners, and Peter Kav's and the Phil are worth a look.

And the new Queen of Hope Street sounds good, the Anfield Wrap did their show there last week

I always enjoy popping into The Cambridge when I’m around that way.

Add the Belvedere to those close to the Phil.

If you're up there, may as well pop in the Caledonian as well.

There is another option. Mr Ferguson organises the fixtures in his office and sends it to us and everyone will know and cannot complain. That is simple.

Good pick. Went in the Blackburne Arms years ago and wasn’t impressed but it may have improved since.

That place makes me laugh, brand new building (student apartments I think?), but then put some old-style boards on the fascade, paint them dark green, an claim you're an old pub.

Blackburne Arms is good for food, but if you're just going for a drink you're much better off elsewhere. Also, the standard of the Blackburne Arms live music is pretty piss poor (by which I mean guy on a guitar doing Oasis covers).

Peter K's will always be the best pub for me. I think Ye Cracke and the Grapes are the next best. Caledonia, Belvedere, The Cambridge, Roscoe Head, and yes even the little sweaty mosher/student den known as the Pilgrim, are also good options.

I've never been that taken by the Phil.

Shenanigans is worth the trip even if it means jumping a taxi from the other end of town.

Thank you for all of the suggestions everyone. I really appreciate it. I'm just very excited to introduce a new set of people to our city. They are going to have a great day and night.

Can’t remember how to insert a quote but this is the best Liverpool pub crawl I’ve been on. The knowledge quarter one is up there too (if you google knowledge quarter pub crawl you’ll get the route)

We went to Bridewell, the Red Lion and then the Grapes on Roscoe Street, but one of our visiting party couldn’t keep up and so we ended up home for before 22:00. Disappointing to say the least.

Thanks again everyone!
