The AD was priceless!
Must cost a lot too get too these places
The Swan is and always will be the best pub for metalheads in Liverpool. Best jukebox going, decent pints, the landlady is an absolute star and the regulars are friendly af. Looks a bit rough but you can make fast and honest friends in there. Lost my keys in there once and went back only to find a bunch of bikers had handed them in and were still there drinking, ended up having a beer with them. Lovely fellas.
Yeh proper joint. Could easily stay there till 2am!
Brilliant 👏 my wife asked a bouncer from Dr Congo in Glasgow Where's a jukie he flung her out 😂😂😂😂😂 juke box prop pubs

Liverpool is a great night out.
Was up there for footy n went out on the friday night (night before the game) and lost my phone. Couldn't contact anyone. Was in Hotel Tia for Jamie Webster saturday early afternoon n someone tapped me on the shoulder and said "Is this your phone laa". Admittedly it was via a friend of a friend of a friend who'd passed it down the line as the person who initially found it put 2 n 2 together, knew whos phone it was and knew Id be there on the saturday. It passed through several hands before getting to me and any of them could've kept it.
Like any city (or town), if you want trouble, its easily found but on the whole, ive been numerous times, never had an issue, never felt worried, only ever experienced a friendly welcome and a great night out!!
Thanks bud means a lot that 😉👍
Of all the places you've visited, Liverpool seems the most fun (and... alive!). Well done.
The suitcases sculpture is nothing to do with the Beatles. It refers to the huge number of immigrants who came to and through Liverpool on their way to the Americas. Tens of millions of them. Some stayed here. That area used to host tons of emigre hotels used by people waiting to sort out their passage.
Is rite Tony everydays a school day thanks for the info👍😉
but one of the cases is a tribute to the BEATLE Paul McCartney ...his Hofner base guitar...so that fella was right in a way...👍🏻
@@frankhornby6873 In a way! :)
That first pub doesn't look dingy at all, looks bloody lovely!
It's a great pub, friendly and had many a good time there. You can see a little room as he goes in which is nice if there's a group of you, Certainly wasn't what I expected to see named as one of Liverpool's dingiest pubs. There's a few other good ones close by including the Phil, Pilgrim, Cali, Belvedere, good start point for a pub crawl.
The Beatles drank there as well...🍻Cheers...
Ye Cracke is where John Lennon drank as a student.
No Shit Sherlock....................................
Liverpool is an awesome place I lived there for 4 years can't beat it or the people who live there ❤👊
Its changing Fast , see - Joe Owens Talks Sense
@@georgebenson6330 like everywhere is changing at such pace it's hard to keep up
@@BigMadMonster NHPUK Have live chat every tuesday night 8pm on these topics
4 years lol , been on a Bender in Town longer than that Yer Sausage🤭🤭🤭
@@georgebenson6330 Agreed............................................
The Swan Inn.... original stained glass front window and the best juke box in liverpool. Upstairs opens of an evening and on match days....ask for a "pint of shi7e" and the bar staff know to give you a pint of carling.
if you go the swan a pint of wobbly bob is a must.
You won't really get any dodgy pubs in the city centre tbf. Some boss boozers but the actual city centre is safe as houses contrary to what people expect. Mainly pubs around Tuebrook, Anfield, Kirkdale, Kensington, Toxteth, Stockbridge, Huyton, Kirkby ect. In terms of specific pubs I couldn't say because I've lived in my birds gaff in Manni for years so half of what I'm thinking of probably got shut down by the plod
Manni sounds exotic...
And places don't get "shut down by plod". Licencing do that when trouble causing local subspecies get feral and the police have to get them out and sort out the mess left at scene.
No rough pubs in Liverpool City center. Some crazy ones but you won't get trouble. I'm from Liverpool and drink around all the pubs at the weekend. Ive never had a issue.
@@pataleno some rough ones to be fair, there's a couple on London Road that are grim
@@TC8787-yq7og I’m talking about town not London road. Not that many pubs in London road apart from the Bully bar or whatever it’s called now.
Funny enough I grew up off London road so know most of them. I’d have no issue waking in there. 😂
@@pataleno fair enough 😂 I haven’t been in Liverpool for years, what was that mad boozer at the town end, the one facing the couch shop,
It was rough in there.
As someone who'd love to move to Liverpool one day, love these. Thank you!
Proper sesh liverpool
Can’t beat a proper drinking pub instead of the food pubs that are popping up all over 🍺 🍻
You know it!
100%
I live in NY, and always wanted to go to Liverpool - I feel like this is as close as I'll get. Love your videos man, thanks for creating these.
I had to Google wh at "split the G" means. The pubs over there in Britain are so cozy. The weather outside is almost always grey and cloudy. I went to England for a holiday in 2004 and enjoyed it. Would love to go back one day, but will have to live vicariously through your videos for now. Good video. Cheers from Oz.
Go on a Saturday and you will see a totally different pub and atmosphere. On a Saturday it's absolutely packed most of these bars. End up with the crowds in Matthew Street. Cracking weekend.
Scouse and proud. Love my city never gets boring for a night out plenty of places to drink. You need to visit Lark Lane mate in the south end of the city
Never a dull moment on the lane! Lived there for many years before moving a little back toward Aigburth vale.
You're meant to have an Aussie Whites at the Blob Shop. Love the comedy adverts. Very funny.👌😂😂🍺🍺🍺
Never heard of it 😬😬
@@honestplaces it's a Yate's Wine Lodge..there's one on Portland Street in Mcr.
Used to be one on the old precinct in Urmston. Those wine blobs they serve used to be lethal looney juice
@@honestplaces Australian White Wine Dohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
the best drink in the world.
The Swann used to be pretty busy on a weekend when the Krazy House was still open as it was sort of the pre club warm up bar. It was packed full of goths and metal fans.
Sound like my joint!
Used to love the Krazy House. Brick floors, 2-4-1 drinks, everyone walking round with full hands!
Whoever played at the Krazy on a Tuesday, like as not played Buckley Tivoli the next night. Also loved secret gigs at Planet X❤
@@michaelroberts7374 me too I used to go love going there on a weekend. I went to a few of the Kraft all nighters back in the day. It smelt a bit funky in there though I won’t lie. You could smell it as soon as you got up the big metal staircase especially near the cloak room near all the pool and air hockey tables 🤣
First two boozers looked like they had some good beers on, long time since I’ve been drinking in Liverpool, great city, will have to return, loving the sponsored ads!
Liverpool looks great, nice pub tour!
Shame the Old Penny Farthing near Lime Street station is gone now - that was one of the grimmest looking pubs I've ever seen. Whenever I was in town I never had the bottle to go in. Seems it was renowned as being a rum place & it would probably have been a good one for you to have visited. Really enjoy your videos, keep up the good work.
Sounds mint that pub. Shame it's gone! Cheers pal 👍🍺
@@honestplaces I went in the Penny Farthing once around 1997 I think it was, I was lucky to finally escape the place 2 years later, got locked in the bogs, probably a good thing its gone now.
Penny Farthing was harmless, just full of proper pissheads
Was known as the "Star Wars" bar, some dodgy looking yet salt of the earth characters in there...
Punch and Judy by Lime Street as well - pound a pint. Burnt down a few years ago
Pubs in the swan, anfield, Kensington etc are something. The town centre is easy going by comparison
I used to call the Blob The memorial gardens cos they had benches with plaques saying In Loving Memory of.
Ye cracks is great, love it. John Lennon used to frequent it back in the day
The Swan used to serve a notorious ale in the 90's called Wobbly Bob. We would start there before going to the rock club The Crazy House
Other dingy Liverpool centre pub suggestions: Sweeneys on Williamson Square, The Grapes on Mathew Street. Irish American Bar on Lime Street (huge omission as it's the area you were drinking - proper dive)
Some good pub suggestions: Baltic Fleet, Lion Tavern, Excelsior, The Pilgrim and Grapes (by Ye Cracke), Peter Kavanagh's, Carnarvon Castle, Dr Duncans, The Red Lion
Some good shouts there.
Another belting video mate the content is getting better with each video keep it up 🎉🎉
Whenever you go into a Pub called the Swan,...
You must remember too "Wind ya Neck In..!!"
*to
@@jamesarmitage8399 Brilliant. I blame AI. !!
That first boozer looks banging, definitely be visiting that one when i'm next in Liverpool
Dream on
@@pip208Jog on..
7:57 WTF reps trying to pull you into a bar the last time I saw this was in magaluf
There used to be a Blob Shop pub in Glasgow, about thirty years. It had wooden floors and swinging wild west saloon doors. I used to drink in there, because the drink was nice and cheap, but it was full of nutters. I nearly always got into a fight with someone in there.
I`d be right at home at `The Blob Shop` with my grey hair! Having said that the `Swan Inn` would be my first choice though, really good to see Liverpool with a thriving pub scene. Keep-up with the enjoyable content matey!!
Deffo swan....looks like a place where you get no idiots! Cheers pal
The blob used to be rough years ago, was my dad’s favourite pub, he had many a stories, seems much more pleasant now haha
Yates Wine Lodge 🤔🤔🤔
Got to get myself to Liverpool - some quality pubs in this instalment.
Get it done man 👍🍺
@@honestplaces Will do! I used to live there, but missed out on these at the time.
here's where you hit up if you like proper boozers
All close walk in this order Georgian Quarter pub crawl
Do this on a Sunday, thank me later:
-Peter Kavanaghs
-The Caledonia
-The Belvedere
-Ye Cracke
-The grapes (Roscoe street) Finish the night here live latin jazz, top atmosphere
Honourable mentions that end of town
-the pilgrim
-the philharmonic
-The dispensary
@@peterg7257 Great - I'll check them out. I used to go to The Beehive on Paradise Street, but I've heard that it's recently been revamped and modernised.
Right up my street this channel and content. Keep on keeping on. It is what it is 😂
Cheers pal 🤣
Your content is brilliant, and visiting a lot of different pubs 🍻👍
Keep up the good work
Flanigans on Mathew St use to be the best place for a Guinness, years since I've been drinking in town but been to most of those pubs and they're great boozers
Been in Coopers in December and it was rammed, literally shoulder to shoulder. Too small for me. Roughest Liverpool pub I've been in was years ago opposite Sephton General Hospital on Smithdown Road, it looks to be called the Willow Bank Tavern now and looks decent but can a local inform me if that the one and has it been gentrified?
Willow Bank rough? You do surprise me as gone in there for years and never seen a hint of bother
It might not have been the willow bank. It was opposite the main hospital entrance in the 70s. I thought it had a maritime name, baltic or Atlantic something or orher. I commented to the barman about the sawdust on the floor and he said it was the furniture from the night before, that's how rough it was.
There hasn't been a hospital there since the 80s 😂. You may be surprised to hear that things have changed round there in the last 40 years.
@@shaunw8360 I'm well aware, I've been past it many times since then. I think there is still some sort of health centre on the site. Can anyone confirm whether this would be the same pub, or has the one in my description above been knocked down.
@briwire138 yes it's the willow bank, it's a nice pub now.
Ye Cracke is a superb pub. You'll find the full range of pubs in Liverpool, no kidding ;-)
Is what it is! 🤣...another enjoyable vid mate...never been to Liverpool, must give it visit soon, looks alright
what you waiting for Duncan? get yourself there!
Go to Liverpool city centre on a Saturday night when its banging its all kicking off then. That street you walked down with the girls handing drink offers is rammed
Agree totally different vibe on a Saturday. packed out in most bars.
In Liverpool City centre its friendly and very little trouble unless you are looking for it.
As others have said the outskirts are a bit more shady.
Liverpool looks like a decent night out
It's brilliant day and night
It really is.
Alright that part of Liverpool. Around Hope Street near the LIPA. Quite trendy. A far cry from Breck Road or Scotland Road.
It wouldn't have been where I'd have sent him if he'd asked for a dingy pub.
It was what it was, very entertaining, my kind of afternoon out. Cheers for the upload.
Cheers pal 👍🍺
Mate this channel is sick, that advert was banging
Liverpool looks really good!
Is bangin!
looks like you had a good time, nice to see not all pubs are dying , i would buy you a pint if i saw you on your travels, good to see all the different places. 😎
Liverpool's dingiest pubs?
What a load of shite.
3 Out of the 6 are student pubs, 2 others are old man's afternoon boozers and FitzGeralds is for everyone who's barred from the first 5.
You need to get out more, mate.
never goes in rough houses
Did same in Glasgow they were city centre pubs 😂
Great stuff danny I love Liverpool boozers fell out of many lol after the football matches at anfield cracking vlog 👍😎🥃🥃
Lad holding cards was gone but harmless 😂
Whoever suggested that Ye Cracke was anywhere on the dingy scale needs to give their head a wobble
The lap dancing bar you Fellas walked past on Wood Street, that's my Younger Brother Mark,s Old venue called Sloanes in the late 1980,s 👍👍👍👍later the Krazy House
The Liverpool FILM , Dancin Thru the Dark had scenes filmed in their 1989 🤔🤔🤔
"Looks like there's only four people in there"
"No, they're all outside"
Hahahahaha
🤣🤣
@@honestplaces at least he was honest hahaha, proper cracked me up that. Always rely on a good laugh with a scouser
Awesome. Glad you got to the swan. 🎉
0:39 Nice seeing Derek Acorah still giving mediumship demonstrations in Liverpool.
Great video again buddy. The longer videos are awesome.
Cheers pal 🍺
John Lennon used to drink in Ye Cracke. The Swan is great on a Saturday evening when they open all 3 floors.
“Google it and when you find out, let me know.” 😂
😫😫
Phoenix is heywood brewery
Always a good night out in Liverpool, if you can stay for the weekend its a good look..
100%
The Swan is so good. Used to go there and listen to metal and then go on to the Krazy House and listen to more metal. Had some good nights in a place called the Jacaranda as well. There was a place across the road called Slaters that always seemed to have a lot of trouble at the time, we'd sit upstairs in the Jac and just watch it kick off outside from a safe vantage point, haha.
Yeh mate. Could deffo stay there all night!
Slaters toilets were a disgrace 😂...
70 goths in a conga line to calypso music on a Saturday night. The Krazyhouse was the best!
@@grahamcammack479 been part of that conga line a few times. Especially when they played Nelly the Elephant, lol
@@davegonnaway6007 but the Quad vods were some drink
You went to the wrong side of the city centre, you should of went to Dale Street, (Vernon Arms) (Rigbys) (Ye hole in the wall) some of the oldest pubs in Liverpool, good video though👍
Will be back deffo. Bangin liverpool. Cheers pal
@@honestplaces Lion Tavern/Ship and Mitre/Excelsior are good down that end.
Vernon Arms SHIT, Rigbys SHIT Ye hole in the wall (Steve,s gaff) Excellent
One outta 3 aint bad lol ...................................
That sponsor transition was amazing!
These wee adverts that your actually in, great idea. I like them. Never seen that. 🙏👻
Not dingy. Just real pubs. Try Ship and Mitre too.
I love heading off to a town/ city I don't know and go around for afew pints. Always mad to do as well after watching these vids.
Been in all them pubs, The Swan is a rock pub. Great video
Tell you what, Somersby on tap everywhere. Fan of that!
Most dangerous pub in Liverpool is The Privileged Twerp on Allerton Road.
Are you visiting Londonderry? City centre pubs are fine but pubs down the Bogside might be a challenge. Only place I've visited where car parking charges are in Pounds and Euros.
Really! How odd! 🤣
Weird seeing you in Ye Cracke and The Swan my old haunts from the 80's and 90's
I always go weatherspoons on Lime ST Station, its only because i pass it when i go Southport on train.
I've watched a number of these videos and it seems to me that Honest Places needs to get better advice on what pubs are "dodgy" or "seedy" or whatever. He's probably listening to what young folk say, but many young folk nowadays don't like traditional pubs. They want glass-and-chrome shitholes where they can drink wine and cocktails, with little plastic umbrellas sticking out of their glasses, not proper pubs serving pints of ale and stout. They see the latter as being old men's places and, by extension, "dodgy" and "seedy". But just about everywhere Honest Places goes looks to me to be perfectly all right. I'd happily drink in those pubs any day. Honest Places needs to ask for advice from people who drink in proper pubs. They'll point out the really dodgy ones. Cafe bar and wine bar cocktail and wine drinkers don't know about real pubs so can't make judgments about them. But then, as Honest Places would say (repeatedly), it is what it is.
The Irish House some of the best guinness in town & right over from station. Usually do the glasses, odd here mate
Swann inn looks absolutely banging bud great 👍 video as always
It is what it is. This is officially my new motto for life.
ye cracke is a proper boozer. i remember being a kid and my dad would get me a cheeky mackie n vimto and a bag of crisps if i was good. crackin little place that.
fair play, mucka!
🍺👍
nice bit of Rory G on the jukeboxin the swann n all
🎵🎵
It's cool that you were on Mount Street by The Art college where John Lennon went and the Liverpool Institue now LIPA were Paul and George went. I also went there. The surrounding area sure has changed.
These aint dodgy pubs haha. Ye Cracke does a superb pint of Guinness. You need to be going places like The Flat Iron in Anfield, Western Approaches in Croxteth, Johnny Todd in Kirkby.
Mint video mate, should pop about Grimsby at some point if you find yourself that way on, The Barge and Old Lloyds are mega
In the works pal. Cheers mate 👍
@@honestplacesIf you want rough pubs head for Freeman Street.
Lots of places like this here in Notts. Once proud working class communities decimated and hollowed out.
Sounds like it could be a good night out! 🤣🍺
@@honestplacesSone of those former pit towns can be very interesting. 😂😂 You would have a field day. 😂
@@TheGamesEmporium sound a plan 👍🍺
Definitely mate I concur, here in Notts too brother
@@honestplacesif you go to Notts then take a train to Grantham too. It’s a shit hope but has a lot of history. Only 25 mins on the train from Notts.
Is the boundary still open in Toxteth? Possibly one of the roughest in the city
i was in there on Sat night it was Packed no trouble at all and great music i think it gets a bad rep cos it's a Black Pub mainly Black people drink there if you just mind your own business you won't get trouble
@garyrigby21 wow that I did not know man so I look like a massive racist! I will respectfully wind my neck in. It just looks scary from the outside
@@Lister81g come on man! i never called you a Racist or even thought that i just meant that's the general consensus of people who never go in there and yeah i agree it looks a dump from the outside needs a bit of renovation but i don't want it to lose it's character either
@garyrigby21 no you didn't call me a racist at all mate !! I just feel I've fallen into a trap of calling it rough without going (drove past it tons) and as you rightly said people maybe calling it rough for other reasons. I'll just have to get the balls to go in one day, I'd probably like it!
The post house is a must visit next time your here. Tiny pub. Also the White Star on matthew street. Great video
Will be back. Nice one pal 👍🍺
Agreed..........................
6:54 Lol...there's a beer there called Wobbly Bob. That's my kind of pint.
🤣🤣 deffo after 6 pints
Wobbly bob is banging, they've had that in the Swan for as long as I can remember
Looks good in Liverpool need a night out there. sounds like you have had a skinful again haha it is what it is 😂
Liverpool looks banging, a good selection there
He only scratched the surface
Go on a Saturday and you will see a different Liverpool Just the best.
What time you start ?
Dunno, 4 maybe
You should have tried "Coopers" not far at all from the blob right by Central station.... Belter little pub that 🎉
Edit omg lol i commented too soon 2 mins later you walk in there ! Lol 👍👍
🤣🤣 Yeh was boss that place
Lovely stuff mate...come to dublin few dingy ones here for ya haha... reasonableish prices for pints 5 euros a guiness less than 4 quid in pounds...gud content also ha..😂
What brand are those glasses??
Some great vids m8 you have to come to Gateshead in Tyne & Wear some very interesting pubs 🤣🤣👍
That Guinness in the swan was proper 👍
Philharmonic.
Swan always been a bikers gaff, with the arl Wilson’s & freewheelers in Wood St…gone now!
Adolph Hitler used to drink in Ye Cracke when he was a youngster studying in Liverpool. You missed a few good bars near Coopers, Lanigans and Ranelaghs, great pubs, decent prices.
lol
It was his brother actually Soft Arse
Been proved to be untrue years back, he never set foot in Liverpool.
@@DavidB-py8nz He played in our darts team.
Looks like some good pubs their.
100% man
Woodys!!! What a throwback
That Irish bar looked like something you'd see in America. Pretty shocking that
The Swan upstairs used to let you play your own mix tapes back in the day.
Hey like said I'm in Bethnal Green just walked past the famous pellicis. Went to go in and unfortunately it was closed possibly due to being a bank holiday.
Might pass back here in a couple of days as I'm here for a week
