Customer Review Summary
Guinness is the most repeated draw, with reviewers calling the pint great and one placing it among the best in Liverpool. Close behind are the good music, the friendly staff and a cosy, warm Irish feel that holds up even though the pub is big, always busy and has TVs for football and rugby. One reviewer mentions a good selection of Irish whiskey, another recommends the Baby Guinness, and another praises a bar worker who stayed patient and funny while run off her feet. Visitors describe it as welcoming for either a night out or a quiet daytime beer. The most serious complaints come from two reviewers. One reports that bouncers knocked a drink from a friend's hand, punched a man in the face and knocked the reviewer's phone to the floor, leaving it smashed. Another describes a baby snail feeding on mould on the toilet walls. Still, most reviews end where they begin, with a simple note of great Guinness.

“The bouncers took a drink from my friend, but then SLAPPED a drink out my female friends hands. She felt scared so her boyfriend obviously kicked off. The security then PUNCHED HIM IN THE FACE AND MADE HIM BLEED. When I went to video who assulted my friend they knocked my phone on the floor and pretended they didn’t. My phone is now SMASHED. I only have my phone because a kind stranger found it. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR I FEEL UNSAFE!!!!!!”

“Absolutely incredible not only sated my appetite for cruzcampo and rugby but also cured my hangover a mere 15 minutes walk from my place of residence not sure about the schools in the area but it would have been a 5 star review had Wales not lost 54 points to 12 against France.”

“Quite a big place, has TVs to watch the footy and is always busy, but this place still pulls off that cosy small pub atmosphere. Gives off them warm Irish vibes and the Guinness in here is up there with the best in Liverpool.”
