About This Pub

Ah, the Market Tavern in Liverpool – it's one of those places that really splits opinions, isn't it? On the upside, when it's buzzing with live acts, the energy is infectious; you can picture folks dancing and laughing the night away, just like Jayne mentioned in her rave review. The staff sound like a friendly bunch, and with prices that won't sting your wallet, it's a solid choice for a casual catch-up over a pint. But, crikey, it's not all rosy – a few have said it's gone downhill, with no food on offer anymore, which is gutting if you're peckish. Then there's the grubby side of things; sticky floors and that lingering smell make it feel a bit neglected, and the locals can be a handful, shouting or even kicking off, as one chap noted. All in all, if you're up for a cheap laugh and can overlook the rough edges, it might be a fun spot, but if you're after something cleaner and more chilled, you might want to look elsewhere, mate.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The atmosphere is absolutely buzzing, especially with live entertainment like Herbie Graham – it's full of laughter and dancing, making for a right good night out.
  • Staff are friendly and welcoming, and it's not expensive at all, so you can enjoy a pint without breaking the bank.
Cons
  • They've stopped serving food, which is a real shame if you're hoping for a bite to eat with your drink.
  • The place can be a bit of a state – think sticky carpets and a whiff of something unpleasant, like it's not been cleaned properly.
  • Some of the crowd can be a bit rowdy, with reports of shouting and even scuffles, which might put you off if you're after a relaxed vibe.

Food is not served here anymore. Place is filthy, a proper dive. Shame, it used to be a lovely family pub, definitely not anymore though!

Well what can I say, the Market Tavern is a great place, full of atmosphere, it's electric. Especially when the entertainment, Herbie Graham, came on and then with his partner. The place was bouncing with laughter and dancing. Awesome. Thank you Maggie x

The pub itself is OK. Staff are nice enough, it's not expensive. It would be a great spot, but it's let down, unfortunately, by the locals. It seems all the local inbreds go there and sit out front shouting at passers by. The last time I went past a group of lads from this pub, they beat up a taxi driver and then went back into the pub. When your mum is your sister, it leads to this kind of activity. I feel sorry for the pub owners.

Sticky carpets, toilet miles away but still a distinct smell of cat piss. Still won't stop me coming though as there's fook all else in the towny.
