- I walk around Toxteth in Liverpool in search of a dingy pub. I get down the rough back streets where there are rows of terraced houses with metal doors and windows along with littered streets!

Mate you walked right past the cans of Monster!
Google Bernard Knutsen Liverpool Echo and you'll find out why.
There's a few Sam Smith's pubs like that. Commercial hotel in Huddersfield being one
The amazing thing is, toxteth is actually alright. It’s not picturesque but it’s not a dangerous place and not even the worst area in the city. The reputation from the 80s just follows it
Very true mate,i was born there..Completely different to the 80's.
I agree mate where would u say the worst is now?
@@Fightnightnw Norris Green?
Very true, play 5-a-side around there as a wool and never have any issues.

Love your videos, honest places I live in northern California retired disabled garbageman watches a lot of UA-cam love your channel new subscriber for life. Thank you for your hard work. I also love England never been there, but love watching videos at Blackpool East Anglia, London, Scotland. I love it. Thank you my friend for your videos🙏💯🇺🇸💙
Wish i lived in California mate. Cheers pal, really appreciate it 👍
I have a friend from UK who lived in California for 3 years and she said it took about 6 months for her to stop instinctively saying "nice sunny day!" to people when making small talk, since most days in the year are like that! @@honestplaces
Love this comment 😊 England would welcome you if you ever came mate 😊👍🏻
@@honestplaces I left California and the whole F'in Country 30 years ago. I've been to Liverpool, in 2023 round penny lane. Much nicer place than America. Howdy from Ireland.
@@foreigncorrespondent5140 Why did you leave the US? I live in Ireland, Northern Ireland to be specific, but would much rather live in the US. I wanna visit it atleast once before I die. That country has everything you want except free healthcare.
Stayed in Toxteth last year, never had a problem there, yes it's a bit rundown in parts but the people are friendly enough.
In my experience people declaring such and such a neighbourhood to be violent and dangerous have seldom been there.
The only areas I've ever had trouble in around Liverpool is behind Lime Street Station and the London Road region.
Yeh right, try going out to the rough bars there on a Friday or Saturday night by yourself or with the fit misses, lol. Unless you are well known around there, will get jumped. Every time I go Toxteth I see someone getting head kicked in by a gang.
Back in the day when Britain actually built stuff, all these rundown areas of Britain were proud working communities,the streets would have been tidy and a bustling community going about their day. Shame.
UK government sent all the jobs to China.
Full of middle easterners and Africans now, and brits trying to act like Africans.
The community needs to be held accountable for the litter, it’s laziness and disgusting.
Guarantee when these places were 100% white native brits, they were proud and clean places.
Maggie Thatcher destroyed community amongst the working class .
I was born in 72 in a predominant English/Irish area and a few Asian but we all got on .all the doors where open as kids we would run into alot of them (parents homes )and who ever we where at at dinner time would just open the door and shout "such and such is at mine eating " or when time to go home just here that you need to go home threw the community grapevine
At Christmas the English and Irish would give presents to the Muslim kids on Eid the Muslims would give food to the Irish and English.This at a time when the riots happened.It breaks my heart what's happening in the UK and it's nothing to do with immigration.
Ok Poland and Hungary have 0 immigration but what have they ever done?
America, France, Canada The UK built on immigration and they or on the fore front of alot.sports , technology, science.
Hate only breeds hate it will never win it has never won
I used to go out with a girl from Toxteth in the 90’s. When I first went there to see her I was a bit on edge because of the area. It turned out to be a really friendly welcoming place. Great video btw👍
Everwhere has it's people who bring it down i suppose. Cheers pal
I went out with a girl from Toxteth too. She had LOVE tattooed on the one hand and HAT on the other hand. She lost her pinkie in a fight

Best city/culture in the world by far 🇮🇪
That area is friendly and safe. It's not wealthy, but the people are nice and even the ones who have problems are harmless enough.
All the cities in the UK have so much potential but the local councils block the majority of investment.

@@onionsyesyeah that Liverpool Tory Council are bad mings
So it's not all the scrubbers from incompatable cultures then?

Good to see a place that won’t accept cards, we must keep cash going!

Yep, absolutely mate. Reject CBDCs

Wow
You went to a pub during the day!

Love these type of videos mate. Proper rough and ready boozers but I hate seeing boarded up houses lying empty for years when we've got so many people homeless and living on the Streets grrr...
Yeh i know mate.....so much space in thoses houses. Cheers pal, appreciate it
I’ve been to Liverpool one time. The taxi driver took me to my location then said this is what you owe me. He then drove me around the city and showed me the city for free. I defo tipped him well. Met some amazing people there. Great city. I quick drinking booze this year. I can’t handle it. I’ve been drinking Guinness 0 which has been wonderful. Great vid dude.
Ace taxi driver! Yeh those 0% arent too bad init!
@@honestplaces....yeah true Scousers are the salt of the Earth....(but slowly/quickly getting squeezed out of the City)....
Funny you say that. The exact thing happened to a Nigerian mate of mine. He took a short cab ride and ended up having a free guided tour around the city 😂 Scousers are real down to earth, friendly people. Liverpool is most likely the best UK city for pubs hands down. A great laugh. Reminds me of Ireland. Not surprising given the Irish heritage there. Beautiful city with great sights. Oh yeah and those zero Guinesses are the best alcohol free beer out there!
“Is there a minimum spend on card?”
“No it’s ok boss I’ve got all your details now anyway.”
🤣 probs
@@honestplaces 😂 just kiddin’ liking the content mate. 👍
as long as you and all the viewers understand not all of Liverpool is like this and Toxteth has changed a lot over the years! there are some very wealthy areas in Liverpool as well. like every big city it has rough areas and clean areas! the city centre is booming and has the best nightlife in the UK
@@majesticjkr9521 what area? i'm sick of Liverpool getting a bad press it doesn't deserve
No, this place has and always will be a shithole
No you're spot on Northern posh boys nowadays.
I regularly hear the oldens banging on about how hard Liverpool is. Lmfao.
Bunch of ponces with multiple houses and job opportunities up the wazhoo.
Scouse girls are disgusting, so scouse central definitely does not have the best nightlife in the UK
Nowhere near the best night out in England,not even the best night out in the north🤣. Having loads of pubs and clubs and mouthy, drunken ,half dressed slags everywhere you look,don't make a citys nightlife great. Give me Manchester and Sheffield for atmosphere on a weekend night out any time.
Been in much rougher pubs than that one, it didn't look to bad imo. Try a pub in Rochdale town center during the week, that's a real toilet of a place.
Always driving init. Do need to get a train somewhere and do a crawl
Back about 2006/7 used to drink in some Rochdale pubs. And there was a buzz there back then but no doubt pints were a lot cheaper so more people could afford to use them. It was a bit rough and ready but didn’t feel unsafe
I'm a scouser but currently up in Rochdale, what is the boozer called you are on about kid ? I probably walk past it every day on the way to the JD gym
True
That's just a bog standard average pub in Liverpool nowadays its not known for being rough! the Rob Roy pub that was not too far from this pub was rough, remember a copper getting stabbed in there and a fella knifed to death over a lap top! and the weighing machine pub lots of knife crime 4 teenagers stabbed one night and fella shot dead! same goes on in most cities up and down the country.
Should be using cash anyway... Cash is king and convenience (laziness?) is trying to kill it!
Thing just hates spending money.full stop.
Cash or cashless.
Despicable human being.
Cashless society, all part of the big plan....tin foil hat? I hear people say, I think not. The control is real folks!
The government wants cash abolished.. Harder to avoid the tax man! Especially with Banks now legally obliged to spy on their customers.. OK, if we mean terrorism or drug dealing but it will your uncle bob window cleaners who will be the main catch... 😮
Liverpool is excellent , no matter where you go. Great people, salt of the earth.
JeeZ, looks like the hood around Toxteth. I visited Liverpool for a 5 day trip last summer & did the tourist thing & had a great time, the locals were lovely
Just cos it looks rough doesn’t mean the people are rough , Liverpool people are friendly and helpful
Great to see you in Liverpool finally!
👍
Liverpool people will help anyone who needs help.
💯% lad🙏🏻👍🏻
@Joe-said To be fair if you look at the history of the rivalry between LFC and UTD fans in the 70's/80's a lot of it revolved around UTD fans being famed for being the best shoplifters, then who could nick the best clothes became a big competition between the rival fans, then when LFC were doing much better in Europe they were turning up with designer clobber they were nicking abroad, but back in the day clothes shops around Old Trafford were basically controlled by UTD fans like the mafia, they'd go in and openly shoplift knowing the shopkeepers were too scared to stop them, and then it turned into a protection racket, so anyway when the scousers eventually won the shoplifting war they were stuck with the reputation of being the best tea leaves.
@Joe-said funny that mate
Exactly, best people so down to earth
Indeed, a couple of scousers gave me a helping hand at a festival by nicking me weed and sprinting off. Lovely people 😂
There are some lovely parts of Toxteth or there used to be especially around Upper Parliament Street. I left the city 38 years ago (L19) but you can't take Liverpool out of the girl! You'll never walk alone. Great video it was just like going back home!🙂❤👍
This is really interesting, thank you. Looks like a pretty decent down to earth pub there
Window cleaner round there has a sander.
🤣🤣🤣
lol
😂
Window frame cleaning luv ?
I saw a rainbow in toxteth once,unfortunately it was in black and white.
I went there many years ago to buy a Guitar off a lad called Joey
i had to stop & ring him cos every street sign was gone & i couldnt find his road . Soon as the Council put a sign up - concrete posts for ballast , wood burnt & tin sign rolled up & sold for scrap
impossible to Navigate Toxteth & Croccy in the 80s
🤣🤣 still got the guitar?
Boswells?
You're talking broken biscuits.
Toxteth is next to the city centre.
Croxteth is on the outskirts of Liverpool.
Nice try.
No cigar, dickhead.
Chances are the guitar was nicked.
Mcfcg, with the street signs, that happened a lot in northern Ireland aswell in the 70s etc, and the street lights used to be shot out, aswell.
Would be good to see some places in Salford. Good video. Insightful. Not many people would venture into these pubs.
that Norris green, Croxteth area is the one. For it being rough. Toxteth is just run down. and owned by slum landlords.
Yet the people are utterly lovely and a treat to be around.
Lovely people smashing every window and trashing every single thing they see!
imagine when all those houses were full of Liverpudlians,they were definitely better days,just watch videos from the 50’s 60’s 70’s
True but what next for these areas? Can't live in ruins remembering 70 years ago unless you work in a museum.
Joe owens talking sense
Proper scousers lived in Toxteth then like my family now it's f ucked
@@pjl8119...what next?...it’s only going to get worse!...
Looking forward to your next one mate, ALL your videos are very interesting, especially the obligatory pint in the local boozer. Off to my local in an hour so I'll raise on for you!!!. Keep up the good work fella ☮☮☮
Cheers pal! Nearly weekend so get them in early 👍🍺
Hi - I have lived in Toxteth all my life - the impression I get us that you’re trying to poke fun at Toxteth because there’s some poverty and lack of investment there - you have also only shown one part of Toxteth which is a huge area in Liverpool - I know many non-Scousers who love Liverpool including Toxteth! Best wishes! Daniel
I live about 2 miles away. I don't think he's poking fun at all. He's calling it as he sees it.
It's not his fault people throw shite all over the floor where they live.
He wasn't poking fun though was he.
He's showing the shit hole for the shit hole it is
You only live in toxteth if you failed at life let's be honest it's a dump
I live in Toxteth - I have attended a number of universities - I have a doctorate and amongst my degrees I have a double-first - I don’t regard myself as a failure nor do I regard my various family members as failures! Best wishes! Daniel
Every city has a toxteth m8 nice vid
Very true...cheers pal
Cash is King....you don't use it we're going to lose it.
I applaud any business preferring cash over card , we rely too much on electronic transfers and when it crashes everyone's fooked 🤣
Love your vlogs mate 👍
ATM is electric 😂
@@KippaxInThailand You don't pay using a fcking ATM though, do you?
wait till you hear about cryptocurrency. the person telling you about it will probably present it to you as "freedom".
You're deffo not in the roughest part mate.🤨
There's good&bad everywhere and I walk around Smithdown Rd,Lodge Lane,Grandby St etc,where you walked,all the time and I've never had any bother.People are close,good natured and get by the best they can.Talk to us and you'll be reassured and pleasantly surprised how helpful,approachable and just nice we are.We're always happy to help.Plus,the Tory government(who despise the North),have cut our council budget by almost 2 Billion since they've been in power.
Good video,but realise why we have tons of litter,boarded up houses,overgrowth,etc.
Scousers are sound I always have good craic with them Mancs, Geordies etc, you just need to be on your toes a little bit more in some areas.
this green and pleasant land.........🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It is when you get away from mit all I know what you mean 😂😂😂 I cycle and walk into the countryside and it is a green and present land the relief when you get out there like a weight lifted
Bet all the local Councillors don't live there or like that 💷🏠🍾💷😎 ....
Something tells me they dont
@@honestplaces And you would be spot on.
Why would they emoji xD emoji litty emoji tiktok emoji.........?
Steve Mumby the best councillor in the city and a man of the people very much lives in the area. What he does for local kids and people is amazing. 😀
To think that this part of Liverpool was the pride of Liverpool back in the day lots of listed buildings etc
This video only shows one side of Toxteth. There are million pounds houses in other parts and many fantastic buildings.
Nice pint of guinness mate, that street with the bay windows would look better without all the wheelie bins stuck out there!
Yeh mate....odd with all those bins!
The council put them in every terraced street to make it easier for bin collection coz it was just black bags but bad bad idea coz I constantly see the local kebab shops fly tipping into them
@@Richard-pu5nq I can believe it but where we used to live the wheelie bins went in the back alleys which made the fronts uncluttered!
Just recently subscribed to your videos mate. Love them 👍👍
I live there and its not that bad at all, despite how it looks.
I used to live in Walton .had some cheeky kids always trying it on but sxousers are great people got nothing but love for them(and I'm a Brummie)
Walks past two notices on the door saying "Sorry, we do not take card payments" walks up to the bar and asks "do you take card?" Lol.

You are definitely the only grown male in that area that is drinking a soft drink in the street 😂 fair play. Good video.
🤣🤣 cheers pal
Looks like a good old British pub,bet Friday night uts bouncing
6:01 Cash is king.
lived there for years, the streets were clean of litter , 40 years ago, in the bad days of the Labour council v. Thatcher. Granby street, never to be forgotten.
Spilling both pints bothered me 😂 great vid 👍🏻
Holmes street that was a really lively vibrant community with people sat out on their steps having a beer and we all got on together everyone knew everyone ….until the council ruined it and Eastern European young girls offering their services in those streets. It certainly didn’t look like how it looks now nine years ago. This is just sad to see what it is like now it looks now like a run down street in America.
Not the Europeans that's wrecking it
these videos are sick brother! keep it up man, much love from the outback 🤍
Cheers pal.....appreciate it! Bet there are some right pubs in the outback
@@honestplacesaccording to Ronnie Barker's description of an outback pub - a corrugated lunatic asylum
I won't have anyone call Scousers, worked with them for over 4 years. Heart in the right place. Good and bad everywhere!
Liverpool best place on the planet. Most areas have a run down part
Liverpool people are decent. Rather be with them than posh punters from the south.
Same
Aye good laugh in Liverpool. Great straight forward people to be around. I have friends that are related to Curtis Warren and I’m not Liverpool so never met him but they said that he’s a cool guy to talk to, really intelligent
Great video again mate, really enjoy these....👍👍
Cheers pal. Appreciate it 👍
brilliant videos these, keep em coming !!!
Toxteth is no way near as bad as it was in the 80’s, north Liverpool is where its rough now…norris green, anfield, bootle etc
Agree
Norris Green isn’t that bad these days. I grew up there from late 80’s until I moved to America a few years back. Was really rough at one point but actually became an ok place to live and a lot cleaner for the most part. Tuebrook went completely the other way that’s as bad as it gets now days.
@@ir1041 ive lived in norris green for the past 4 years, the streets and houses are bad but they dont look as bad as these ones in toxteth, however the people there are some of the most backwards people ive ever seen in my life. smackheads everywhere, horrible kids, bad parents, drug dealers etc. I keep seeing people saying norris green isnt all that bad anymore, whilst it may have improved, it is honestly a shithole and i say that as someone who used to live in walton. Id move back there in a heartbeat
Norris greens west
@@ir1041 norris green was awful up until mid 2010’s due to the gang war with croxteth which was pretty brutal.

I recently found a cost of living comparisons website and it directly compared average wages and average rents as well as average food prices and bills etc in two countries head to head. And in countries like Denmark average wages were a lot higher. Average rents were a lot lower. And overall more food was cheaper and bills were typically less.

I love your content it’s interesting and real keep it up 👍
Cheers pal, appreciate it 👍
The litter everywhere is just plain lazy. My local council let the community down with its litter picking. So the people of the community started doing it for themselves. Every morning groups go out and pick litter just because they have pride in where they live. Simples
Yeh it's shocking. Just scruffy people. Nowt worse
that street with the litter is where Roma now live, the tinned up houses are the locals moving out.
I bet you dont have Roma in your community.
hate to break it to you and spoil the scruffy scouser illusion for you but ive lived here 45 years and i was shocked at that street. never seen litter like it here b4. possibly derelict street almost so council send sweepers elsewhere. not sure
Some of those houses looked like they were once lovely back in the day. Such a shame to see them boarded up. Like most UK inner city areas, scruffy, no pride, "local" population not local (if you know what I mean). No wonder good folk stay away.
Wink wink nudge nudge old boy 😂
That's a decent pub and looked clean and looked after
I was talking to a fella from Myrtle Gardens, he asked where about in Toxy I'd lived, I went, Princes Av', an he goes, 'ooph It's rough round there innit.' - Ohhh we had a riot. The Chaplin is cool though, I like that they don't do cards as well, because it isn't half annoying when places don't accept cash.
great video. I like this kind of content.

Lovely pub
Oh I so miss those rough British streets lol. Reminds me of childhood.
Tocky is a boss place boss people it's not rough there's worse the riots in 81 gave it s bad name happy bevvying
I'm from there and it's the strangest place ever. My birds from Sale and she couldn't get her head around it when we first got together. Everyone there is either a very violent drug dealer, a bouncer or a student from some random toff place like Bath or something. It's just strange seeing some posh southerner in skinny jeans and blue hair walking past some scouse lad in a black down jacket with a pitbull and neither of them bother the other. It's simultaneously rough as fuck but safe as fuck as well.
Seeing those houses I think I'd feel safer on the streets tbh.massive fan of Ur channel
🤣 true. Cheers pal, appreciate it
check out the toxthet mansion houses 2 min from were he was
An old mining area , town run down and one of the poorest parts of the county, check it out online !
Nice to see you didn’t turn up with any negative preconceptions!
In a lot of these places there aren't many people around and it's not as if most of them are at work, so I wonder what they must be doing and when do they venture out?
True
type in toxteth mansion houses there is plenty of wealth around there as well,doctors solicitors plus the uni is not far and very busy some houses well over the million mark

The houses have metal on doors because they are empty, the copper and lead piping will get nicked if not
My Dads side of the family used to live in an area close by to this back in the 60s and 70s. There would have been loads of kids out on the street playing back in those days. Completely gone down the toilet since then. Still, people from Liverpool are the most friendly you'll meet. They really would give you their last £10 without a thought.
Not as rough as it used to be
Shame! 🤣

True
Honest question, does anywhere you see make you feel more or less "ropey"?
I'm from Liverpool and it's great place still. Most things happening in town now but still the pub you can get a good pint.
Never heard of that pub but some pubs in and around the city were infamous. Eagle and Child in Huyton was one place that outsiders would give a wide birth. Fortunately most pubs in Liverpool are fine and the people will do you a good turn rather than a bad one.
