Dale Street, Tithebarn Street and more
If you’re looking for a “proper” Liverpool pub experience, you’ve found it. This area is a fascinating mix of historic ale houses, high-energy party spots, and sleek modern hangouts. From the legendary Ship & Mitre to the after work pints on Tithebarn Street, this area bridges the gap between the city’s business district and traditional pubs known to all.
Traditional Pubs and Beer lovers Paradise
You can’t talk about this area without starting at The Ship & Mitre. A true Liverpool institution, it’s famous for having arguably the largest selection of draught and bottled beers in the city. It’s an unpretentious, art deco-fronted “proper” pub where the beer is always the star of the show.
Just down the road, you hit a cluster of gems:
-
The Excelsior: A beautifully restored spot that manages to feel both fresh and traditional, perfect for a pint before catching a train from Moorfields.
-
The Dead Crafty Beer Co: For those who want the cutting edge of the craft scene, this is the modern anchor of the street.
-
The Lady of Mann & Thomas Rigby’s: Sharing a famous courtyard (one of the best spots in the city when the sun is out), these two offer a classic “dual” experience—Rigby’s for the old-world pub feel and the Lady for a slightly more open, social vibe.
This area’s group of streets are close to the Moorfields train station and sits between the busier streets like Mathew Street and the edge of the city.
