Will Larter left this review about Doctor Duncans

Like several other pubs on my visit to Liverpool this week, this is one I've been in before, on a Pubs Galore crawl and with some of my Luton Town mates, both several years ago, but haven't written a review. So I'm here to make up for those lapses. I was more aware of the steps down to the bar counter than previously, having hurt my ankle in a slip on some ice last weekend, but I survived. There are five hand pumps, and Beartown beers are always on, in particular the bitter on the left and a pale on the right, according to the barman. In between is a version of their Creme Bearlee, this one with ginger. The sole interloper was a "tropical, juicy" pale from local Neptune, so I went for the Beartown Best, which was pretty decent (NBSS 3.5, £4.40/pint). I'm glad to have called back here, particularly as I was able to look around a bit more than previously (see photos).

Doctor Duncans is a large pub with a narrow bar area to the right of the entrance where the serving counter faces high tables across the large front windows. Premium and Craft keg were available alongside Carlsberg and the five hand pumps were drawing Bear Town Brewery’s Indoctrination, Best and Crème Bearlee alongside Neptune Brewery’s Spring Tide and Odyssey.
Split level seating with green panelled walls runs up the left hand side of the pub and part way across the rear. To the right of the bar is a very impressive room with green and brown tiling around the walls and up a thin supporting pillar. It’s worth visiting this pub just to have a look in here. In the right rear is more seating with a bit more tiling, including a fire place which is situated next to a dumb waiter and lots of eating utensils. The service was very friendly and I liked the surroundings so I don’t see why I wouldn’t pop back in again if passing.

A large multi-roomed pub with some nice tiling and mosaic on the floor, there were a couple of cask from Beartown plus Titanic Black Ice. A decent enough pub worthy of a visit.
