| Not a bad pub.It's starting to look run down and maybe its time for a full refurbishment but the ale is not bad, you get served fast and the food is excellent. It's the best pub on Dale Street and it's close to the train station so i like it. As some have commented it is quiet an expensive pub and it is better then the Ship & Mitre. tinkydrinker - 25 Oct 2011 16:05 |
| Whenever I've been there, the staff don't look too happy but I have been served in a prompt and timely manner. I had dinner there once and the poor bar guy kept tripping and dropped a condiment tray. There were sachets everywhere. It's very spartan. It's all hard wooden stairs, floors and tables. No-one ever smiles. You can get away from the tormented staff by going into Rigby's beer garden. It's quite a magical experience, as suddenly you notice there are two other pubs sharing the same space. Overall, it feels a bit like a train station but the garden makes up for it. Nowhere to escape to in winter though. . Water_Into_Wine - 10 Oct 2011 21:38 |
| There are quite a lot of pubs like this in Liverpool. Not really my taste as you feel like you are at Butlins but they had a wide choice of ales and ciders.Obviously an employee isn't going to spend much time on public relations,so a very impersonal place. As others have commented there are better places only minutes away shouldersarms - 27 Apr 2011 17:11 |
| Long bar to the right as you go in with dining area the other side of it and a few rooms to the back. Was quite busy when we went in. Tried the Okells IPA which was drinkable but nothing brilliant. the place has a thorughother feel to it and not somewhere to linger really. Snarling_Mallard - 3 Jan 2011 15:48 |
| Rigby's is still very much an essential part of any crawl of the Dale Street area. But I feel it has gone ever so slightly downhill over the past year. The atmosphere yesterday was a little muted, with far fewer customers than on recent visits. Beers on were Blackwater Boogie Woogie, Grafton Jazz, Teignworthy Levitation & Bristol's Ale, Holdens Mild and Okells Bitter & IPA. Westons Traditional Scrumpy was the real cider. A wide range of bottles is still available. Everton items can still be seen behind the bar, giving a clue to where allegiances may lie. I'm sure I'll be back. But there's definitely several better pubs in Liverpool. blue_scrumpy - 18 Oct 2010 22:31 |
