Kicking out time was a regular source of amusement. The phonebox, where they'd all congregate, waiting for taxis' was at the bottom of our road. Saw all kinds Despite the nightime 'reputation', it appeared popular during the day, for diners. Upstairs,the dining area, had a floor to ceiling window-fantastic view of the Liverpool waterfront.

I went past there the other day. You can see some of the dance floor tiles still in place. And the toilets. The land is owned by Peel Holdings now. It was fenced off, 'open' again now, most of the boarding ripped down-even though there is nothing to see, particularly! (And my dogs got Fox Ticks )

Yes, considering the site was empty land it was fenced off pretty well with giant concrete things blocking the road. It must have been just to keep travellers out.

I Remember going in here when I first moved up here, why did it burn down? Was it arson? Did this place have a reputation for being a sticky floor slapper hang out? In other words if you didn't pull you must be gay lol.

I only went in there once. It was like the fecking Star Wars Bar-only in the Star Wars Bar the women were better-looking!! The music was good, though. I remember having to walk away from the place to get a cab as the cab drivers were reluctant to pick up from there. There was also an unusual smell from the adjacent oilworks or summat similar. All in all-an experience never to forget!!
