Will Larter left this review about The Monro
This pub has the longest display of hand pumps I think I have seen in a pub. I made my choice from a line of 10 - I went for Northern Monk Sup, a 3.4% easy drinking, slightly fruity pale (NBSS 3.5, £2.15 for a half) - and as I turned away to find somewhere to sit, I saw five more. Admittedly one of them was a cider, but it's still 14 cask beers. This is a large pub with many different rooms, changes of level and also of environment, as it's easy to drift into a semi-enclosed courtyard, with screens showing football. The main bar has girders and pillars, so I think it's part of a building made using the modern techniques that are seen in a lot of Liverpool's business areas, built around the turn of the 20th century: the forerunners of skyscrapers. It seems to be popular with people of student age, as well as people approaching my age. I don't know what it's like at busier times - there are plenty of staff so they must get busier than at 7pm Tuesday - but at this time of day it's pretty comfortable.

This pub has a stunning looking bar area and it was fab to see it in its full glory, when the pub was quiet. The interior has lots of features such as ornate cast iron balustrades and herringbone patterned block flooring. The staff in here were friendly and chatty and this pub is also a good outlet for Locale.
On handpump TT Golden Best, Salopian Lemon Dream, Beartown Lit, Black Lodge Brewery A Better Land and Shake Hand, Brimstage Trappers Hat, Bass, Theakston Quencher, Titanic Plum Porter Weetwood Cheshire Cat, Northern Monk Sup and two from Neptune Aries and Pacu.

Even the unheralded pubs of Liverpool have something to offer. This has a ruin bar kind of feel. All distressed plasterwork and things hanging from the ceilings. I did like the ship busts standing either side of the bar.
Friendly service - with the bar staff asking how my day had been before serving a lovely Neptune Aries.
