    Lark Lane - One Of The Best Parts Of Liverpool. It's A Well-Kept Secret.

    I Know Liverpool Quite Well, But I'd Never Been To Lark Lane Until Last Week.

    It's no secret ? I just jump on an 82 bus and I am there in minutes. At the top of Lark lane is Linnet lane and then the park.

    Now there are some great pubs and restaurants in this area.

    We went down there last Sat. night for the first time in 5-7 years. It was as lively as ever, though we did not get into The Masonic(I'm not going to call it by it's new name ever!). The new(?) Turkish BBQ place looked good. Our biggest shock was crossing Aigburth Road to go to The Belgrave, I knew they had done it up and cleaned the outside but what a change from an honest working men/womens pub into a brown and mushroom coloured, fizzy larger drinking emporium

    I like Lark Lane. It's a shame the road isn't wider!

    Widening the road would ruin its character.

    I was going to take pics In Lark Lane today but got put off by the amount of road work being done there.

    So many roads In the city are getting work done to them but are leaving the roads that need them?

    When we got married - 1978 - we lived on Rutland Avenue, off Ullet Road. It was a short walk across the park to Lark Lane. It was only starting to develop then and I remember Keith's Food & Wine opening. Lots of bottles sunk and meals consumed there. Is it still going?



    Sorry - just looked at the earlier link and see that Keith's is indeed still there. We used to look through the window when it was being prepared for opening - seeing Keith and his mates busy with paint brushes. The main memory of the opening night was the smell of paint!

    Prior to him opening, I used to go in the Albert a lot with my mates.

    Is Marranto's a bar as well now? Where you can just drop in for a drink? It was just a restaurant (mainly steak) initially. Still is steakish from their web site.

    Keiths originally only had the corner. He has bought the place next door and extended. When did that happen?
