| Take my advice as a native of Liverpool, by all means pay a visit to the Cavern just for tourist value, stop and have a drink and if a singer is on, take in a song or two. BUT..... Dont stay too long, its dark, it smells, the prices are borderline robbery and the barstaff can be slow. You get the impression the Cavern is clinging on to the whole Beatles reputation by the skin of their teeth, because if this place was anywhere else it would be empty.

| Ok for tourists I suppose. I remember going to the original Cavern in the 60s, heaving, sweaty, full of now iconic bands, and a happening place to be! Not so now, as the other revuers say expensive crap drinks and 3rd class pretenders on stage. The original Cavern was moved when the offices where built on that site (next door in the Lucy in the Sky cafe ) as it was not deemed strong enough to support it, and the bricks were saved to re-create the Cavern as it is now. A bit of history of the place for you! How thing change eh? Enjoy. noggin46 - 20 Feb 2012 19:49 |
| Friendly staff and nice music do not make up for the shortfalls on this pub. The patrons were rude and aggressive and the whole place smelt like a urinal. The stairs to and from are lethally steep and the bar prices are stupid. Include it on your sightseeing tour by all means. But I wouldn't stay long. miffy4boys - 6 Jan 2011 17:00 |
| It's only the Cavern by name - too touristy and frequented by tourists who think it's the original Cavern. If you're lucky you'll see a guy on the stage with an acoustic guitar singing Beatles covers in the afternoon. Sadly, and has been mentioned before, expensive drinks in plastic pint containers have put me off this tourist trap. mattbeer - 17 Jun 2010 03:19 |
| I love both The Grapes (It's THE GEAR!) and The Cavern I cannot really add too much more I am a bit of a 'culture vulture' I suppose. abizwemmer - 27 Jan 2009 13:18 |
