About This Pub
Oh, let me tell you about Tonight Josephine in Liverpool – it's this gem of a cocktail bar on Hanover Street that's just brimming with energy and sparkle, especially if you're up for celebrating something special like a hen party or a birthday bash. From what I've gathered from the reviews, the staff are absolute stars; they're quick with a smile, spot-on with cocktail recommendations, and really make the place feel welcoming, which is why it's racked up such a high rating overall. The drinks are spot on too, with happy hours and creative activities like painting tote bags while enjoying bottomless brunches – it's all about that mix of cocktails and creativity that keeps things fresh and exciting. But, to be fair, it's not all perfect; there was that one review where things went south for a group, with service not living up to expectations, so it might not be everyone's cup of tea on a packed night. Still, for a good time with mates, it's worth a go – just keep an eye on the booking to avoid any hiccups, and you'll likely have a brilliant evening full of laughs and memories.

We went for a hen party and being dead honest we thought it would be a gimmicky and we would be begging for drinks for the 2hours we were there ! We didn’t have to beg for drinks at all our server Sarav looked after us all night and let the drinks keep flowing … food was exactly what we expected and you get what it says in the tin .. we had an absolute ball and would highly recommend for any group nights out hens birthdays etc when you have a range of ages and need to keep everyone happy.
As soon as I went inside the staff was super friendly and suggested yes amazing cocktails.
Maria and Keelan was very sweet and suggested cocktails according to our flavour liking. Definitely a place I'm visiting again. Loved the interior as well, it was fab!!

Avoid at All Costs – Extremely Disappointing Experience
We booked and paid in full for a booth with a drinks package at Tonight Josephine in Liverpool for a hen party, as the venue claims to be “hen party friendly.” Unfortunately, our experience was anything but.
Upon arrival, only half of our group were allowed in. Two separate booths had been set up with glasses, which would have split our party — completely defeating the point of booking a private space. Ironically, a nearby booth that could have accommodated all of us remained empty.
Even worse, the bride-to-be was refused entry because she had walked up to the club barefoot (having taken her shoes off briefly), and the bouncers seemed to take pride in turning her away — smirking and being unnecessarily rude. When we asked to speak to a manager, we were met with complete indifference and zero willingness to help.
We waited 40 minutes at our table and did not receive a single drink from the package we had paid for. When we raised this, we were told to contact Hangover Events (the third-party booking platform), we were told the venue would “tell Hangover Events whatever they needed to” to make sure we didn’t get one , even though we hadn’t yet contacted them to complain.
This place is a ripoff with terrible service and staff who clearly don’t care. It was meant to be a special night for the bride, and it was completely ruined. Overall, this was a deeply disappointing, poorly managed experience. The atmosphere inside the club was also far from enjoyable, with a moody vibe and visibly intoxicated guests creating a negative environment.
This place takes your money and offers nothing in return. Do not book here especially for a special occasion. Total scam.
