ROB Camra left this review about The Slaughter House

Called in on a Monday afternoon when it was fairly quiet, although by no means dead. It's an Irish bar but not an O'Neills in your face kind of place. As you enter you go up a flight of stairs to the bar area. Downstairs is a comedy club called Laughter House. They were doing a good food trade during our visit. No real ale, so I had a pint of Estrella and Ms CAMRA a half of cider. They were playing a fairly middle of the road selection of music with the odd rock or indie track, so it gets an extra point for not playing that Abba crap. :-))

maybe it helped that it wasn't cramped today but I thought this place was okay. pleasant dimly lit Irish bar with friendly staff. also was playing ABBA for the entirety of my visit so extra point for the good taste.

For some reason this is a pub I just can't take to. Its nearly always packed and therefore cramped whenever I've been, especially at weekends. Usually has an overloud band/singer blasting out standard pub music. There is a downstairs that's used for music too and is even louder. Faux Irish fixtures and fittings. No real ale so its standard lager-a-likes on tap. It being in a part of town I don't particularly like also puts a downer on it.

Old Boots left this review about The Slaughter House

One of Liverpool’s Orish pubs, over two floors although the lower one was closed so I used the bar upstairs. Bare floorboards, rough plastered and painted brick walls, dark wainscotting and old wooden adverts from Ireland along with some interesting little nooks and cranies give the place an interesting atmosphere, the massive old ceiling beams do look authentic for the building and are used to hang eathernware jugs etc. The manikin of famous Irishman Elvis Prestley is perhaps less authentic but probably relates to the music side of the pub. The modern world has its screens and machines here too. There are a few tables and chairs, an open booth affair but mainly the space is devoted to vertical drinking. Several Guinness taps of course plus Magners cider with Tetleys Smooth, and various lagers. There is a line up of clocks behind the bar all showing different times but I couldn’t see the labels so I’m none the wiser what they mean. There is live music here very frequently including “didley didley” (Irish) music every Wednesday.
