Victoria Cross, Liverpool

Corner pub on busy cross roads and GBG 2014 listed. As the name suggests there is an heroic theme, decor is mainly regimental badges, military drums and a list of VC winners from Liverpool. The list is headed by Captain Noel Chavasse VC and Bar, who's father the Bishop of Liverpool gave a park to the city in his memory, it's now under Liverpool One. Six pulls of decently kept local and national ales, plus 2 T-bars of national keg brands. A single room with big windows and furnished with leather captain style chairs, armchairs and sofas at cast iron tables. Middle aged but cheerful male customers in the main during my lunchtime visit. It handily links the Cavern quarter pubs with the Dale St ones.

Nice and friendly place there was football on and most were Everton supporters watching the game and yes it was Everton that was on had a good pint of Timothy Taylors will call back

An average pub as far as the interior goes. The pub does source some good local ales and is worth a look in for that alone. The majority of time you will see a beer from George Wright or Southport Brewery. I was very lucky on this visit and both were on, George Wright Blonde Moment, Southport Brewery Dark Night and Carousel.
