Ye Hole In Ye Wall

Apparently the oldest pub in the city is also one of the best. Lots of bars in the area seem to focus on live music at night (even on Sundays), except this bar which is your basic watering hole.

Place itself is small but familiar. Easy going bartender chats up the patrons and makes snarky comments as you figure out what you want. Ordered two pints of a stout they have on tap and comes out to £3 each. Amazing value; easily being the cheapest bar I had visited on my trip. Was able to snag a corner booth to lounge and drink a couple more pints without it getting much more crowded.

Again, service is great and the seating is comfortable. Grab a drink and relax.

Absolutely brilliant. Amazing atmosphere, best service, great drinks. People who work here have the best personality. Favorite bar I've visited in the UK

This was a busy olde pub (the oldest in Liverpool
apparently dating back to 1726) with only one person serving not enough to
cope with the demand for booze.

My beer was pretty nice though. Norwich Duck Soup Opened its doors to women in 1977.

A snug, timeworn hideaway of wood panelling and brass, Ye Hole in Ye Wall reputedly dates back to 1726, giving it a strong claim as Liverpool's oldest pub. Ducking in, you tend to forget that grotty buccaneers are not still clattering their way along the cobbles outside, feeding their parrots crackers and telling people to shiver their timbers. There's a fruit machine and a telly, but overall not much has changed.

This is the perfect nook to squirrel yourself away in and ponder the mysteries of the universe or plot a mutiny. A Spanish seaman was said to have met his grisly end here after refusing the King's shilling from the press gang. Also, it was the last pub to open its doors to women, following the sex discrimination act of 1975. Nowadays the pub is less cluttered with ghostly Spaniards and a blunt refusal to roll into equality but by the time you blink your way back into daylight you may find yourself struggling to remember what year you live in.

Located in one of the Liverpool's medieval streets, you can find the city's oldest public house, datin from the early of 1700.


The interior is more modern, but the pub preserves this traditional climate, with very elegant details. It contains small rooms, where you can chat among friends, with privacy and a telephone cubicle has a brass-studded door makin' it look like the door to a padded cell!!


A place that has could age as the good wine, preserving the essence of the past.


Next to the pub, is the Carvarvon Castle on Tarleton Street, in the central shoppin' area. Other survivors, with a fab ceramic details at the frontage, with a traditional interior with wood.

One of the great old Liverpool pubs that visitors should see but rarely do. Try and make time for a visit, get a drink, sit or stand and chat to one of the regulars. Enjoy the atmosphere and the craic - and the ale isn't bad either!
