659 The Door club Argyle Street
Was this known as the Iron Door
Indexed

yes i think it was the iron door.

This was the best place for a late beer for me after stairways closed.
I dont have any good reasons to drink in birkenhead anymore since i been single.
Last time i had a beer in birkenhead was last october and it was really quiet.

I loved it in there.
Is it just empty now?

it was supposed to be taken over as a gym that fell through now its totally empty no bar stage etc

we should open the wikiwirral bar there

get the live groups back in birkenhead

Naah the parking sucks round there.
The Yard on Green Lane would be a better place

yes it was, my bro use to work the door there

my sister ownes the club

Think it's now the Cotton Club for over 30s

Yes it was the iron door and the best place in Birkenhead for live bands!

Never been there.
I presume it has a bar, dancefloor and stage though.
Looking at the building can anyone tell me which section it is?
The windows directly above the black doors only (1st,2nd or top floor) and going to the rear of the building or is it one of the floors going right across all of the building?

There was an Iron Door Club in Liverpool too in the 70's, which was one of the main, well known clubs. Was it the same owners or did they just pinch the name?

Sorry, it was the 60's. How time flys!!

Just to add more confussion. Is it the Iron Door or the Cotton Club?

This website looks fairly up to date.

Its now called the Cotton Club, went there a few weeks ago very busy but was shocked when they charged a fiver to get in I thought it was like sherlocks used to be but for the over 30s

Original iron doors from the club, hence the name The Iron Door club,

I know that house. How is crazy Steve

Seems we have something in common , My Sister had Life Cafe and 2A Price street until last November , Same guy (Adam)who has the lease on 2A also has the Cotton club , and cool rooms and the Beech, .. along with Jack Rabbits ...Thats why Birkenhead is crap (imho) ..not much competition

'Crazy Steve' is my dad lol, he is fine

Rainman, i know your sis.
Dont think Birkenhead is crap because of Adam having a finger in so many pies.Its because of the numbskulls in B'head.

Jack rabbits and bierhouse are doing well regardless.
