The Saddle, Liverpool

can't compete with the pubs next door to it but it's still a decent enough Dale Street boozer. nice enough inside with different styles of seating in a virtually open plan layout. I was surprised to find two real ales on the bar to be honest, Doom Bar and Cumberland today. the latter was drinkable, just. had a nice chat to some German communists, maybe this pub is famous there!

I walked in to this pub last week, observed the empty handpulls, turned round and walked back out, seemingly unnoticed by the barman despite the pub being very quiet. I guess as Ray says below they are used to ale drinkers doing this, so used in fact that they no longer notice it at all.

Very busy pub Called twice while in Liverpool it was gay pride week end and all the pubs in this areawere buzzing
