Forums Forums Wirral History : Chasing the Past Wirral Pubs Past & Present 654 The Fishermans Wharf, Seacombe

I'll echo everything that Kenny James has written. I,along with Kenny was the original DJ at the Fishermans Wharf from day 1 until it closed and I'm afraid that many of the views recorded here are wildly inaccurate.We also both worked at La Banque on King Street,another very busy pub in what was then a very busy area pubwise...The P A, The Five Bars,The Dale (long demolished) The Vanser,The Float,The Bee and quite a few others were all busy several nights a week.
Just like Kenny I would be happy to give a true representation of "The Wharf" to anybody who has a genuine interest.You might be interested to know that a Fishermans Wharf reunion has been suggested and the initial response has been tremendous. Watch this space!

I agree with the DJ's (who I remember)....The Wharf was a great place, we had some great nights in there. We'd all start off in La Banque and when that closed we'd head down the Wharf.. I'd like to thank Terry for my first taped album of The Body Guard which I won in La Banque on quiz night..

Hi Ken Im desperately searching for photos of Fishermans Wharf, can you help? I met my (now) husband there on 4th August 1992, so its our 20th anniversary this year and Im planning a suprise party. I have CDs from 1992, so thats music sorted, but cant find photos anywhere. I am suprised at the rather unflattering things people are saying about it, as although I only went a few times, I remember it very fondly. It was a very hot summer in 1992, and Fishermans had a lovely view across the River, especially when the Tall Ships were there that year. Ah happy days. Anyway, if you can help that would be great? Kind regards, Janet Wilkinson

Hi Terry. I met my husband at Fishermans Wharf on 4th August 1992, so have very fond memories of there. As you say, it was a great place, so I dont understand all the unkind comments. If you have any photographs of Fishermans, could you let me know please? I cant seem to find any anywhere. Did the reunion ever take place? If not, is there anything planned yet, if so we could be intersted? Many thanks.
