Our tour operator stopped in Liverpool and took us to this gem of supping-hole. A historic venue located on the docks of the city, it is perfect venue on a hot summer's day when you can sit outside and enjoy a drink.

The Dispensary on Renshaw Street, like all Cains pubs, sells excellent beer. It is small and welcoming with a very diverse clientele.

Try the other Cains pubs - the Brewery Tap or the Baltic Fleet as well.

87 Renshaw Street, near Lime St railway station.

The Volunteer is a pub hidden down a back street near the sea front in Waterloo not far from the railway station. It is a small, traditional pub, little bigger than the terraced houses which surround it.

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.

A tiny pub with a brilliant atmosphere. 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.

On the corner of Blenheim Road and Russell Road, which is just off Penny Lane. L18. There is stone gull on the door.

A cool bar and nightclub. I sought it out because it always seemed to have good DJs and music and I wasn't dissapointed. What a fantastic design. The decor is very retro and it's not one of these glass and chrome places. It's got a great feel and funky customers.

The Monro i think is famous for its weird food like ostrich, welsh buffalo but they now have a Pudding Club which is held every Monday! ]

The Monro is famous for weird food, such as ostrich and Welsh buffalo, but they now have a Pudding Club which is held every Monday.

The head chef and his team create the most amazing puddings I've ever seen and you get a light main course plus three desserts for just a tenner.

You've got to try it as it’s such a laugh - the restaurant atmosphere is superb as you can feel the anticipation as each pud is brought to your table.

It's so cool and I'm glad I joined it.

The Monro does amazing food that is in my opinion better than some of the top restaurants in the city. Featuring rabbit, wild boar and Welsh buffalo they create really special dishes at great prices.

Also don't be fooled by their bar snacks blackboard on the way in. This is more memorable food that's ingenious and cheap.

The cheapest pub in town, full of Victorian grandeur. Why have trendy overpriced places when beer here is just over a pound a pint?
