Roscoe Head, Liverpool

Was pleased to include this on a recent Liverpool crawl. Six hand pulls at the bar with a chalk board listing the available beers. This is a multi roomed pub and the only one we went in all night where we didn't manage to get a seat at all. I had the Ernie's Milk Stout (Settle Brewery) and my drinking accomplice had the Fault Line (Salopian) and both were very good beers. This is a pub I would be very happy to return to.

My first visit for many years. I was the first customer Saturday lunch before noon. My pint of Dark Side of the Moose was in perfect condition. I could see that this cosy heritage pub was very well maintained. I thought the campaign a year or two ago had saved the pub but I was sad to hear that it is under a constant threat from developers. Losing this place would be a total disaster.

Alongside the usual TT Landlord and Tetley Bitter, Salopian Oracle, Peerless Brewery Langton Spin, Tweed Black Shire Stout and Faith Hope and Charity from the Rock the Boat Brewery were available on the other four. We bagged a table in the back room and went through the four guests, all of which were in excellent nick. Totally agree, the Roscoe Head is a Liverpool gem that is sadly under threat from Development. The people of Liverpool will be all the poorer if they lose this one to another student accommodation block.

Simply had to come, when in Liverpool. Back Street boozer with very friendly clientele. Instantly engaged in conversation and it was a struggle to get away. Even with four missed calls from the Mrs. Landlord chosen from the beer board. In good nick. Would love to come back. Photos at my blog - http://bit.ly/2csv7Qs

This pub has, at the moment, been taken over by New River Retail and is under threat. Your support would be very much appreciated.

This is another traditional pub on CAMRA's Regional Inventory of pubs with historic interiors. I'm afraid the "Magnificent Seven" is now reduced to the "Famous Five", but this is one of the five ever present pubs in the GBG. It's well described below, and I'm happy to report that when I was in there a little over a week ago it was unchanged, and remains the very special boozer it always has been. There were four ales on - Hawkshead 5 Hop, George Wright Brewing Co Mild, Tetley, and Timothy Taylor Landlord. The young lady behind the bar was kind enough to make Mrs R a cup of tea, and I'm told it was of a high standard. There was sign inside that said that as they weren't a free house there would be no free tasters as the pubco wouldn't allow it. A dig at the pubco is probably justified. This pub is under threat, and in my experience when a pub is threatened there's usually a pubco (invariably in league with a rapacious developer or supermarket chain) behind it. This is a lovely pub. I'd be delighted to have this one as my local.
