                <description><![CDATA[A music venue in the popular drinking area that is Concert Square. Go past all the awful chain bars and two-for-one drinking venues and escape to Korova just up Fleet Street. Wicked venue, illustrations and graphics cover the walls and there are booths in the bar to relax in. During the day there's good food and drink, of an evening you can catch a band or go to one of the club nights. Usually has something going on most evenings.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Cosy, underground cellars form the three rooms of the bistro. Below ground level, the bistro is a great pre-play venue or meeting place for friends.  <br><br>When I go home to see my parents we go to the Everyman after I get in to Lime Street. It's really relaxed and although pretty basic, the menu is consistently varied, tasty and fantastic value.<br><br>Without exception, my dad orders the delicious tortilla with salads, and the desserts are highly recommended.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Circo just opened on the Albert Dock- it's a bar and restaurant with a really eccentric circus/freakshow theme - they have life-sized horse lamps and trapeze! <br><br>You can hire the private dining room for a night of karaoke- lots of fun!  Try the Candyfloss Martini at the bar too...]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Albert Dock is the heart and soul of Liverpool's waterfront, with so many cool bars and restaurants, PanAm, Blue, Est Est Est and Baby Cream. New places to eat like Vinea and Circo add to the already vibrant places to eat. <br><br>Tate Liverpool, the Site Gallery and many smaller art galleries offer the perfect mix of culture, right next door to the new Arena &amp; Convention Centre. Now the famous Duck Tour and Shiverpool tours are great fun for a day out. <br><br>Albert Dock has seen Liverpool grow up in the last 20 years and will remain my favourite place to hang out on a sunny day on the quayside.]]></description>

It is a small, traditional pub, little bigger than the terraced houses which surround it.<br><br>It's a hidden gem - there is no jukebox or music playing, worth a visit if going to see the Iron Men on Crosby beach.]]></description>

Cosy, underground, with framed newspapers carrying stories about Liverpool from around the world on the walls - The Titanic, Liverpool and Everton Football Clubs, Derek Hatton, The Beatles, Boris Johnson etc. A beer called, 'The Echo' is brewed on site and is delicious. The visitor's book is well worth a look too. Unpretentious and a real gem.]]></description>
