Peter Kavanaghs, Liverpool

Victorian/Edwardian interior with an eclectic collection of miscellany, a little like drinking in a junk shop. Many people rave about the interior and the beer. The cask beers, from Greene King (Abbot) and various microbreweries are usually good to fair, the interior is interesting but there just seems something missing. There are several small rooms plus a larger split level affair with lots of seating, more stuff, some interesting photos, posters etc and a piano. It is a bit of a local’s pub, with over exuberant regulars congregating round the bar but they are friendly enough. It is a fair walk from some of the better pubs but for the curious it could be combined with a trip to the Philharmonic and Belvedere.

a very characteristic pub well worth seeking out
