Pubs of Liverpool and Merseyside

Great photos Joe. Am I right in saying the Lord Napier closed down a few years ago, and has now reopened.

Great photos as ever Joe. Hope you don't have to drink in every one you snap


My sunday afternoon impromtu little pub crawl a couple of weeks ago started off in Moorfields at the railway and the lion, purely for nostalgia purposes as they used to feature heavily - too heavily in our regular crawls when I could drink. Hic.

Great photos Ged, I go in there a lot. did you have one of their famous pies? Next time you go in there, check out the prices on the Scotch. Expensive yes, but pure heaven sliding down. Does any other pub in liverpool have a better selection of Scotch?

Then ended up on Dale Street.


Rigby's bogs. A strange place for a picture. Now, had it been the lfc squad i'd have made a play for who can pee the highest







The Vernon bar.....





And the lounge.






I must admit to preferring the gold embossed on maroon felt wallpaper of the 80s than this cold looking blue. Also, the original black and white floor tiles have been revealed when the carpet was taken up but I deffo preferred the carpet, maybe not that one, but a carpet.

Great photos. Love these pubs.

J.P. Merryweathers is one of the few on the High Street I haven't been in.

The interior of the Midland oppsite Central Station, camera balanced on a pint of Theakstons as a tripod
Ged did you chase all the people out in your interior pics? or were they all smokers

Great pic Joe. When I first started going in the Midland, the bar was the other way around, and as usual it had a bar and lounge.

Yep, another pub bites the dust.
Here's the CoppleHouse off Longmoor Lane

Zap, another one indeed bites the dust. It used to be a good pub that. I never knew it was closed. Probably only a matter of time before someone sets it on fire.

Joe, it was a rainy sunday afternoon at the wrong end of town Rigby's had a few in but they were all eating sunday lunch in the Nelson room so I didn't bother photographing in there. No one in the Lion at all except us and only about 3 in the Vernon bar. This sunday I was down at the Grapes in Mathew St, the Croc and the Liverpool and all were chocker.

Yeah,it was once a good pub until some scallies took over.

Last time I was in there it was a really friendly pub. How did the scallies take it over?

[julieoapw]

Must agree - went in there only the other day. Lots of pictures of Gerrard Gardens on the wall.

Only went in there a week last Sunday night after a night at the theatre, what what.

You only had to see the the lads who went in and it was pretty easy to figure it out. Plus I know a few scraps occured there. Last time I passed there and it was open I thought, "I'm glad I'm not a boozer".
Mind you, it's the same thing I suppose as the Crown pub which I thought was great, many would disagree.
