The Denbigh Castle, Liverpool

Comprising one large room at street level and a cellar bar downstairs, this is a fairly average bar with no real surprises, the attraction of the place coming from the customers, the music and the events. There is a pool table in an alcove by the front door and the bar counter runs across the back wall, naturally there are the usual big screeens and machines. The walls are plain white, it is carpeted throughout and there’s rather too much furniture. I didn't try the bar downstairs. The bar counter is supplied with a bland range of keg beers and lagers, although Dortmunder Pils is centre stage. Reputedly a gay bar, the only hint I noticed was a small photo of Audrey Hepburn and a couple of ladies who fitted the Lesbian stereotype, there are some fairy lights but only in the front window.
