Hand pump
The Hub was more of a posh restaurant, but with a comfortable bar area for drinkers.
It's been re-done with a German bierhalle vibe, and very well done in my opinion. Although not big on real ale they do have a couple of handpumps and I had an excellent pint. The menu looks good.

All Bar One (Queens) (Goose at the Queens)

Hand pump
The Queens, also known as Goose at the Queens, was a pleasant Wetherspoon-style pub on two floors, serving very nice ale.
It became All Bar One in September 2010, and I enjoyed a good pint of the only real ale available in comfortable up-market surroundings with stylish modern wooden furniture. They are mainly interested in food, and the posh menu seems reasonably priced.

The decor is mainly bare brick inside this peculiarly shaped building with a pleasant lounge in the bullnose. The top notch beers used to include specials from the nearby Passageway Brewery, but when that closed they bought the kit and set up their own Wapping Brewery in the cellar which provided excellent ales until they ceased brewing here in 2017.
Located on the wrong side of the road for the Albert Dock grockles (Great news if you want a quiet drink and a read of the paper), who consequently have to make do with the Pump House.
In 2014 the layout in the main room was altered.
In 2023 a new open staircase was added leading up to a refurbished first floor.

Berry and Rye (Saint George) Saint George in 1999: A plain one roomed corridor bar. The customers were friendly but the parrot wouldn't talk to us (A sign warned that he bites!) It was tarted up with graffiti all over the front in 2000, presumably to appeal to a younger market.
Now a hidden bar specialising in whisky and cocktails.

Rather good understated decor (Some might say plain.) in this large cellar in which white painted ceiling, columns and walls are enlivened with the occasional mirror, TV or brewery sign. Somewhat lacking in atmosphere on a wet Monday afternoon but I bet it's lively on Friday night. Bierkeller style benches one side and some comfortable-looking booths on the other. A good range of bottled beers from all over the world, as well as a couple of real ales on hand pump.

A major refurbishment in 2006 has left this pub with a very nice traditional interior, with a wood and stone floor and a nice wooden bar front - All totally fake. When I visited in 2006 they had about seven real ales available, and the Adnams Bitter was top notch. Revisiting in 2008 I found new management and there was less choice of real ales, but still in good nick. In 2013 and more recently quality real ale continues.

Blarney Stone (Newington House) (Renshaw's)
PicPic
Hand pump
My notes on Renshaw's said: Appears slightly scruffy from the outside, but the interior is well cared for when you get past the bouncers. In the evenings this lively popular bar is always busy, noisy and great fun, and often has a live singer or karaoke. At less busy times it's good for a quiet pint. Licence to 02.00 on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Noted closed and To Let in 2015, and then re-opened as Blarney Stone in 2016. On re-visiting I found a cheerful friendly place where they've resisted the temptation to go over the top with the Irish decor, making for a pleasant interior. The few remaining Victorian features, ceiling border plaster and an arch, have been well kept.

Originally opened in the late 1800s, this small beautifully kept pub is the only survivor of eight on this street. Outside, the pub has a splendid ceramic frontage in a row of boring modern shop fronts. Inside, the well preserved traditional interior includes a wood-panelled back room. Excellent beers and friendly service.
Refurbishment in 2008 has taken away most of the external tiles, I'm afraid, but it's still a very pleasant pub, the only fault being its popularity which means I usually end up standing.

4 hand pumps - 3 off, one pure vinegar was what I found in the Rat 'n' Parrot in 1998. Returning to visit Yates's twelve years later I found three hand pumps but no real ale "because the cooler is broken". The decor had an almost sixties feel to it, with dark wood floor and panelling, plus purple carpets.
In 2015 it became the Crafty Chandler, with a small selection of real ales in good nick available, as well as a few craft beers. There are some LSTVs for sports but they're not obtrusive. The menu of standard pub fare looks good and good value.

Fine beer with six or more real ales. After many years of selling Cask Tetley Bitter at £1 a pint the price finally went up in 2007. In early 2008 an interior refurbishment provided new carpets and made a very good job of tidying up the ceiling.

Scruffy Murphy's was a tiny one roomed "Irish" bar, much cosier and slightly cheaper than O'Neill's across the road, in which bitter was not available when I visited. I never tried Bar.com. The latest incarnation, once again called the Empire, is a pleasant and well cared for boozer with a friendly atmosphere.

In 1999 I described this as a rather scruffy old knocked through pub with a two-sided bar with friendly staff serving well cared for beer. Revisited in 2002 it seemed to have lost the scruffiness while retaining the friendly staff and top notch ales.
It re-opened in December 2010 after a period of closure having had a good refurbishment and now offers an increased selection of real ales always in good nick, and the food is good too.
I noted the building boarded up during the first lockdown, so I was pleased to find it back in operation in July 2020.

Hand pump
I understand Kirklands was a bar/club with no draught beer. It has now been taken over by Okell's Brewery and re-launched as a quality pub. The interior is nicely decorated with mosaic and parquet flooring and wood panelled walls with some church style features. The excellent ales include Okell's and guests, and there is a fine range of bottles from around the world.
The odd name comes from the original use of the building, as Kirkland's Bakery.
Unusually for this guide, a purely personal comment: There is something about this pub I don't like but I can't work out what it is. The beer is superb, the staff friendly, and the interior pleasant and always spotless; and yet there's something wrong with the atmosphere. Check it out and let me know what you think.

The Grapes in 1999: It is hard to tell how much is faked in the fine antique interior which includes a nice wooden and tiled floor. This purported to be a "Porters Ale House" and had plenty of hand pumps, but only plastic Tetley was available when I visited.
In May 2000 it was taken over by new management who renamed it Sick Lizard and concentrated on live music.
More recently, however, the Grapes name has returned and in 2011 I found a choice of no less than nine real ales, both national and local brews, including three from Liverpool Organic, and a friendly, if somewhat quiet, atmosphere in this small traditional boozer.
More recently they've knocked through into next door and done a great job of tidying up the interior, while maintaining the excellent ale quality.

Hand pump
Visiting the Old Monk on a Sunday afternoon in 1999 I was disappointed to find that none of the twelve hand pumps were on - or was it just that the barmaid (The till said her name was Barbie) found the plastic easier to serve? An impressive interior with a wooden floor and high ceilings. Having missed its Barracuda and then Varsity phases, I returned in 2010 to find the Abbey. The interior was still excellent and the place was packed with a Liverpool home game on the big screens. The real ale was spot on and they were doing a good trade in pub food. Revisiting in 2013 I found a ten percent discount for CAMRA members, and quality real ale once again. The menu ("Smith and Jones" chain) looks good.
In 2017 this became part of Cameron's Head of Steam chain. A major refurbishment has completely changed the interior, with the bar moving to an island in the middle. The decor is now bare air conditioning ducts, corrugated iron ceiling, and the industrial-style lighting that everywhere has to have nowadays. A selection of unusual real ales is matched by a menu of imported bottles from around the world.

In 1999 the Brunswick Vaults had a pleasant and friendly bar side with a high ceiling and some rather nice stained glass and wood panelled partitions. The comfortable looking lounge side, served only from a small hatch, was completely deserted when I visited. Soon after, it would appear to have been substantially remodelled and gained an LSTV along with a change of name to the Brunswick Bar.
In 2009 an even greater change produced the James Monro, a New York themed bar / restaurant with pleasant up market decor, which was run by the same people as the Monro on Duke Street. One thing was very unlike New York: You could get a decent pint of real ale!

The Old Ropewalk was a bog standard nicely decorated knocked through pub with one bar and some side areas, and served only keg beer.
In 2011 it was re-launched as Bier, concentrating on real ale from six handpumps, some continental lagers on tap, and a long list of bottled beers. The unusual interior decor is a combination of plain grey paintwork and white tiling.
In its most recent guise, the range of real ales has reduced but the quality remains high.

Pleasant enough decor looking a little worn in places. This place doesn't keep to the opening hours on the sign, but keep trying and eventually you'll be rewarded with some excellent ales.
Sadly, by 2002 the real ale had disappeared. So had most of the customers, as the place was deserted, unlike the Blind Tiger next door.

After spending a period closed in July 2002 this re-opened under its old name Queens. The beer bottle collection had gone but otherwise the interior style looked pretty similar to me. The real ale was delivered by a traditional hand pump. Surprisingly quiet on a Friday evening.

An impressive selection of excellent ales is always available along with a wide range of imported beers on draught and in bottles, and the occasional festivals are well worth a visit. The inside is very nicely decorated and well looked after, but sadly the real gas lamps in the back room are now electric. There is also a splendid Art Deco wood-panelled "cocktail bar" upstairs, used as a function room. The nicknames came from the scruffy flaking paintwork on the exterior, and are no longer appropriate.
My only complaint about this pub is that it's always busy and it is often difficult to find a seat or hold a conversation.

Opened in May 2010, Shipping Forecast has quirky decor in which the now traditional bare air ducts and ceiling joists mix with odd bits of radio equipment and old illuminated signs. Plenty of bare brick and a wooden floor complete the excellent effect. The chunky speakers suggest a lively evening atmosphere but it was very peaceful and comfortable when I visited on a Thursday afternoon.

Sketch (Lord Warden)
PicPicPic
Lord Warden: This nice small traditional one-bar city centre boozer had a wide range of clientele, from 18 to 80, and was popular with racing fans on Saturday afternoon.
After a period of intermittent beer quality, a new licensee in late 2007 brought excellent real ale. This disappeared in 2009, and shortly afterwards came a temporary period of closure.
Open again under new management in 2010, the interior had been remodelled and redecorated. The real ale seemed to be back on, I had some excellent pints of Timothy Taylor's and others. Moving on to 2019, the real ale had disappeared.
Sir Winston Churchill, depicted in caricature on the pub's sign, was appointed Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports in 1941, one of the higher honours bestowed by the sovereign. Wellington, whose column is nearby, also held this title.

Sketch: 2021 brought a total change of style, with brightly coloured paintwork inside and out.

Swan Now closed and demolished. When I visited in 1999 I wrote: The 1950s style interior has seen better days, although it's not as rough as the "toilet wall" tiled exterior would suggest. A large bar and lounge plus a small front room served from a hatch. An unusual feature of this pub was that it had doors on three streets.

This basic back street pub has been very nicely refurbished. The excellent beer and the excellent rock jukebox remain, I'm pleased to report.

1999: A scruffy exterior and rather nice half timbered interior with wood beams and bare bricks in this two-sided pub. A little run down and slightly tatty in places.
2003: Having been taken over by Okells, the pub has been very well re-done while retaining some nice original-looking features, including leaded glass in the bar front, the old Rigby's sign displayed above the bar, and the ancient wood panelling in the back room. In addition to the main space there are a number of side areas and separate rooms. The excellent beers include Okells seasonal brews and guests, and a good range of bottled beers from around the world.
Nelson is reputed to have met with Lady Hamilton in the back room, at which time it was a coffee house.

A confusingly sloped wooden floor and a high ceiling. The counter itself is dead level, but your table slopes with the floor. The excellent ales include a wide range of guests, with six available when I visited. After being closed for five years, they re-opened in April 2009 with almost no changes apart from a good redecorating job. The food, basic pub fare, looks good.
Having noted the place boarded up during the first lockdown I was pleased to find it open again in July 2020.

Its more recent manifestation as the Victoria Cross has scrapped all the Australian stuff, and has pleasant modern understated decor, very well done.
One handpump was operational on my most recent visit, providing quality ale.

The interior, especially the spectacular back room, is in my opinion easily a match for the more well known Philharmonic(qv). Make sure you take a look at the beaten fire surround, wood carving, plasterwork panels and semi-booth seating in the end lounge. The exterior is also impressive.
The Grade II* listed building was looking more neglected as time passed until at last, in 2023, an excellent refurbishment has restored the glory of the interior. And they've added real ale.

A large hotel bar in the famous Adelphi Hotel. In 2013 it was very busy on a Thursday afternoon with most of the customers being pensioners. The wise-cracking barman kept them entertained.
Returning in 2022 I found it a lot quieter, with just a few pensioners keeping the place ticking over.

Wetherspoon's Fall Well (Cunarder)

Opened in July 2002, this is a stylish up-market bar carrying Wetherspoon's Lloyds No. 1 brand, built by joining the former Cunarder and City Pets next door. Unlike the standard 'spoons locations it has TV screens and music. I re-visited here late on a Friday evening, and Wetherspoon's are to be congratulated, I think, for providing youth oriented loud music, DJ and flashing lights and yet still managing to serve excellent real ale.

I first attempted a visit on a Saturday afternoon but they were closed due a power failure.
A subsequent attempt found a range of quality real ales on sale at very low prices in this Lloyds No. 1 variety of the Wetherspoon chain.
A large two floor pub with rather strange decor in which the wood panelling and stylish, rather twee, lampshades contrast with enormous metal heating ducts. Very quiet on a weekday lunchtime. The prices here are significantly cheaper than the other branches in Liverpool.

This place appeared on a Wetherspoon's list of pubs to be closed but I gather they have purchased the lease and reprieved it, thank goodness.

Wetherspoon's North Western
Hand pump
The Head of Steam opened in Autumn 2000. Three bars and a "diner" downstairs plus more on the balcony. The three downstairs bars were very different: Studio 58 was a trendy plastic beer bar, the display bar contained a nice collection of railway signs and models, and the third bar was the best of all - Traditional decor and a dozen hand pumps with an impressive range of real ales, both common and unusual. In 2006 I found half the bars were closed and the real ale quality was very poor. Returning in 2011 I found the real ale choice was down to three, but the one I sampled was in excellent nick. As time went on the choice of ales got smaller and the quality lower.
On 7 July 2015 Wetherspoon's revealed a very impressive refurbishment, two million pounds worth, which has created an excellent addition to the chain. Amazingly, they even managed to squeeze in an outdoor area.

The White Star never changes, thank goodness. This compact one bar gem is possibly my favourite Liverpool pub, especially for a quiet lunchtime read of the paper.

Hog's Head: The music was a little loud in this otherwise pleasant modern bar with one main room plus more tables on a balcony. My notes from 1998 recorded a large selection of excellent hand pulled ales; by 2004 they were down to a choice of only two, but the Fuller's London Pride was very nice, so no complaints. Unusually, waitress service was provided.
More recently, renamed but pretty much unchanged.

X in the City (Baraka) When I visited in 1999, Baraka was a trendily styled but a little tatty one room pub/club. I got the impression that being trendy and up market had not paid well, as the message on the umpteen TV screens was "Home-made scouse and red cabbage £1 a bowl", and a big sign at the door advertised cheap beer.
I haven't been back since it was re-launched as X in the City.
