The Gents has a screen to stop splashback from the urinal. This gives me as much pleasure as the ornate glass dome.

Beautiful old pub, worth a visit just to see the interior and always seems to have a decent pint available. A must visit for us each time we visit Liverpool and really handy for Moorfields station. Excellent.

Oops,it would seem that I have hit a raw nerve with Wirral-Realalian. Yes, I do work there, it's hardly a state secret. No has complained to myself or any other staff memeber about the temperature of our beers, if they were to do so we would do our utmost to rectify any short-fallings there and then, rather that wait for anonymity of web-page to make sweeping generalisations.

As a passing punter had a lovely pint of Endeavour that I still rave on about. Only downside, the tall table in the front bar was wobbly and I spilled about 15ml - gutted!
Hope to visit again.

With reference to 'DNADave' comment. I presume he is the Landlord or employee to be able to know when Casque Mark visited and to say 'we' when refering to the pub. If so why not say so, to enable readers to form an unbiased opinion. I am aware that many people are finding beer 'chilled' recently and hoped that you would have prefered to hear everyones views. The views of all those 'experts' that are customers and choose where to drink.

One of Liverpool's finest oubs, excellent beers, excellent staff, eccentric boss. May I humbly point out to Wirral-alian that we had a visit from Casque Mark in the same week that they visited and guess what? Our cellar temperatures were absolutley spot on. Please leave it to the experts!

Fantastic interior and good range of beers. Definately a must when in Liverpool!

Another fine traditional Liverpool City Centre pub, close to Moorfields station.
Note the splendidly ornate glass dome and the tiled bar and the unusual bar layout. This pub is pictured on the cover of the CAMRA National Inventory of Unspoilt Interiors guide.
I enjoyed a good pint of Hawkshead IPA recently which I tried in preference to either Banks, Youngs and several others which I forgot to note down.
This pub serves baguettes and cheease toasties at lunch time, also Southport potted shrimps.
If walking to the pub from Moorfields, do notice the unusual revolving windows in the building virtually opposite the station - its " modern art" apparently as one of the unimpressed locals confided in me.
You should try and do this pub if at all possible when in Liverpool.

This is a marvellous place, well worth seeking out. The beer was on top form, and the pork pies are unbelievably good.
|
Revisited recently. Still love the pub but disappointingly found the cask marque beers a bit over chilled. I do hope it's not a permanent thing.
|
Great pub. Large bar fills about half of the room as it also serves through the Victorian wood and cut glass screen into the corridor and 2 rooms behind. Similar in layout to The Stork in Birkenhead. Good selection of real ales, usually well kept, speciality lagers and malts. Serves food but remains a good old traditional pub. Didn't try the food but might be tempted by one of their cheeses. Even on Monday night there is a pleasant buzz.
|
Stunning interior and bery friendly staff. Decent range of beers on that are always well-kept. A little of the beaten track as well so it doesn't get too crowded. the only downside is that due to the impressive size and scope of the bar, standing in a group of more than about 4 can be bit of a pain.

What a lovely pub for friendliness, beer choice and quality, and decor. It is so easy just to stay in the front bar, but the back has to be seen. There are serving hatches through the fantastic glass that forms the back of the bar, and a large dome in one of the back rooms too. The large pork pies went down well with the beer.
|
This place is a real gem! The Victorian interior is stunning and the range of beers on offer is great. They also have home made cheeses!
|
Probably my favourite pub now, great food and an ideal place to go for a pint or few of Deuchars, friendly regulars from different backgrounds and great staff
|
Wonderful interior, superbly preserved. Hugely helpful and welcoming staff. Excellent beer, chatty , friendly atmosphere, everything a proper pub should be.
|
Very good. Splendid interior, with ale and food to match.
|
This is a class pub, ornate and a really impressive interior. Good beer and decent food, i`d say it is definately in the top 5 pubs in our city!
|
Consistently goof beers here. The Yates' and Black Sheep were in excellent form last night - oh and the jackpot is up to £70 now!
|
Raise your glass to The Lion. A great pint of Youngs is to be had here and the 'lady behind the bar' in no way resembles the legendary Annie Walker! Well worth a visit
|
a pub to be cherished - and i though i was the only one to spot annie walker. eclectic and erractic. a jewell.
|
Fantastic interior with bar and sitting rooms on the back side of the bar. Reasonable ale selection. Supervising landlady? who looked a spit for Annie walker from Coronation Street (for all you aged persons) All good so far but a couple of reservations:-
bit scruffy and very smoky. Worth a visit though.
|
It's a couple of years since I was there, but SJC's description is spot on. As I recall, the landlord had a particular interest in local history.
|
Decent selection of beers, and an superb interior. Perfect environment for a quietish pint.
|
