Liverpool bars / clubs / pubs

[halewood pete]

Anyone been to Tom Halls? Opened by the Liver building, lovely pub, loads and of sports stuff in there and plenty of TVs for footy and that. Nice beer in here too. It also passes the litmus test of having a lovely clean toilet which is where I'm posting this from now.

Last port of call before pier head and the 78 bus home for a young pete in the late seventies on his way home from his £17 a week shipping office job.

Seven quid to my lovely mum and a tenner for me,and unbelievably it seemed to go quite far in those days!

Will have to check it out next week when I'm in town.

Paulie Gualtier recommended me Mojo, a few of us went and had a ball.

 

We also went to Red Door, Aloha, and Salt Dog Slims... All of them real fun. Aloha played the best music, good dance floor. Red Door perhaps had the hottest toots. Mojo when I went was full of uni students... Still loads of fun.

 

None of the above are particularly 'edgy' if that's what you're looking for.. but we had a real good night out, they're all close to one another.

[Harry Squatter]

Wasn't impressed with the Red Door when I went. I've been the area Door in West Kirkby a few times which was good but they closed it shortly before opening the Berry Street bar. They only serve Schooners of beer rather than pints and it's a bit pretentious in there.

 

Frederick's on Hope Street next to the Philharmonic is good. The 23 club underneath the Clove Hitchwas good but they got rid of the back room which was great. Still has good beers and bourbons though

[Tyler Durden]

I love Mojos. Although I haven't been for about 12 months. One of the few bars where people aren't up their own arse

[Total Longo]

You can't beat a night in the Wild Rose in Bootle, followed by the Jawbone or The Merton and then £2 to get in the Cat & Fiddle.

 

i imagine this is how i will be spending this evening. Winner.  

[easytoslip]

Is that Cat and Fiddle the one under the high rise on Stanley rd ?

Not been to a club for years due to age and being a lightweight , well out of touch with that scene. When I get home I always have pint in the Globe and the.Richmond.

I do like a walk round though , so I'llbe.trying a few more out. Other than that I call in to the Salt Box and Red Lion to see old faces but ots preferably town for meas I usually stay in town. Smokey Mo's looks like it should be avoided though

Yeah mate it is, it's about as grim as it gets and they've got the cheek to charge you after 11 because its the really the only nightclub in the area. 

[tokyojoe]

Which one? Slaughterhouse is being done up at the minute. Will have to check out Tom Halls.

The Slaughterhouse brings back memories. Used to be a regular port of call before a game in the '70s.

[Furmedge]

Just been that roof terrace by the liver building. Oh me oh my it's called. Great view, but £3.80 for a 330ml can of estrella? Almost threw the barman over the side. Lager wise they sell pints of coors for £4, 330 ml cans for £3.80. It's okay though, they give you a fancy plastic cup to drink it out of.

cans?  Fucking hell.  Absolutely typical that.

Yep, cans. Not even cold.

[cloggypop]

You wouldn't get given cans in the squat bars here.

 

[Sugar Ape]

Has it almost literally just opened? I drive along the Strand last Thursday morning and I'm sure they were still putting the sign up.

 

Yeah that's the one, there were still some workmen in there finishing some bits and pieces off.

Definitely give it a go mate. Good for a few games of pool and some decent beer on tap. Some nice tunes on as well, Otis Redding, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye etc..

[Harry Squatter]

The Cross Keys off Old Hall Street closed about a month ago as well as the Lion Tavern by Moorfields.

 

The Exchange bar opposite the Old Hall Street entrance to Moorfields closed down earlier on in the year. Was supposed to be taken over by Marks and Spencer yet nothing has happened. Pity as a decent bar there could make a lot of money.

Walked past it before with my missus. Asked her if she fancied a drink there. The boarded up upper windows put her off.

 

Prude.

Is the Lion still closed ?

 

Thought there was some dispute with Owners and the Tennants that was getting sorted

Be a real loss if it closes for good. Great beers and still has the original Victorian bar

[Harry Squatter]

Yep. Walked past last night and it's all closed up.

[tokyojoe]

Is the Eagle near Lime Street still there? Used to be the HQ of the Liverpool branch of the Eddie Waring impersonation society, or so I was told.

I think they're trying to get a conversion on it.

[Harry Squatter]

The Cornmarket is great for lunchtime food.

[Mook]

What's the verdict on Newington Temple?

 

I was in when it was Bier and it was pretty good but they look like they've got the best jukebox of all time in there now.

I work in the building next door to that. Never been in but heard its decent.

It"ll be a bit further down mate on the same side more facing James st station was reading they had bought the building and are putting a new pub there, I like the slaughter house it's a decent little boozer.
