Rigbys in Liverpool

Trevlig pub på Dale Street med bra utbud. Schysst innergård och härlig atmosfär/stämning. Ett besök rekommenderas.!

Never been in this pub before so we dropped in as we were walking past, it's dark and old inside and very nice too, very friendly staff and good prices too, will definitely go back. The beer garden at the back is nice and quiet for a drink.

We visited July 10th 2024 for a quick drink . Staff friendly and professional. Decor is old theme and plenty of space . Drinks very reasonably priced . Would return

Staying at the excellent Ibis Styles nearby, we popped in for a drink when we saw they had Cruzcampo and Neck Oil. Nice comfortable old-style pub. Staff are really nice. Music a bit loud for me, but it was mostly my Spotify list. We ordered food. My companion's burger was good. My chicken tikka masala wasn’t great. Lots of rice. Lots of chips. But not much chicken. The following day, we returned for a drink but opted to eat elsewhere. We will definitely be back for a drink, next time we are in Liverpool.

Visited Sat 18th May for a few on our tour round town.Very nice place,staff very good indeed.Reasonably priced drinks,campo and madri excellent.No pink gin though 🤔 but raspberry alternative was good.

Been coming here for many years but I think it's been taken over by new management. Anyway they used to sell Veltins on tap and a great selection of German bottled beers including Fruh kolne. Went to the bar and asked for 2 bottles of Peroni and a Fruh, was told they did not sell Peroni anymore and the guy serving me had no clue as to what Fruh beer was. They even had no Isle Of Mann real ales on. If you like Madri lager or Carling you will love the place. Add to that the toilets were disgusting with no soap to wash your hands with. Give it miss next time

Called in for a team meeting food and drinks ordered table of 4 5pm. Food was edible for pub food would not recommend though,problem was people coming in attempting to sell stuff ie vapes,deodorant and tobacco after telling them to go away a few times they got the hint but not before the bar staff shouted over "can you get anymore of them Yankee candles that you had last weeks will we return I don't think so.

Visited on a Sunday and they were serving pub food until 17.30. Had a few drinks elsewhere and then returned here for a rather nice Tavern Pie and chips. Turned out to be meat, potatoes and carrots and was pretty decent. Between the three of us we also tried the three desert options of sticky toffee, apple crumble and a caramelly ice creamy marsh mallowy affair. They were all good.

A couple of days off work and my twin brother and I decided to jump the train down from Kirkby to Liverpool City Centre and visit some of the great pubs our city is justifiably famous for, one of the first pubs we visited was Rigby's,one of the best real ale pubs in Liverpool. Housed in the very eye catching Rigby's Building, parts of this building date from 1726 but I'm not sure the pub is that old ,it's old but not that old ,interior is superb, multi roomed, main room is dominated by a solid wood serving bar, pubby decor and furnishings,stained glass features, big screens to enjoy the sport, there's a narrow side room that's beautiful and more used for dining and my favourite room is the big back room named in honour of Lord Admiral Horatio Nelson who allegedly stayed in this room ,this room looks superb, a beautiful brick fireplace, wood panelled walls, painting of the admiral and his ship The Victory ,there's also a really good courtyard that's brilliant to sit in the summer ,all in all its a fantastic pub to unwind in. We got here about midday, in fact we got here as the pub opened so we were about the first customers of the day so we could really appreciate what a great looking pub this is ,a quick study of their ale's and I opted for a Theakstons Brewery bitter while my brother opted to have a pale ale, these were served in pristine condition, we sat in the Nelson Room were we chilled out and planned out the day ahead while sipping our ale's. My bitter was really good, dark,a finely balanced bittersweet taste ,a delicious aroma with subtle hoppy flavours, so thirst quenching, just a perfect bitter ,in my opinion a much underrated beer style, my twin brother also gave me a thumbs up to his ale,while sipping our brews this pub really filled up ,great atmosphere but not surprising to me that this pub is so popular with ale's served in this good a condition . We really enjoyed our ale's in here before we moved on and although our visit was only fleeting as on every other visit to Rigby's we had a great time. Rigby's is easy to locate along Dale Street, a street with some of the best real ale pubs in the city. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday, midday till 11pm. Well worth seeking out if you're in the area.

There's many pub/bars and restaurants on Dale street and Rigbys is as good as it gets as it offer's a fantastic range of cask beers and a fantastic food menu.This is without a doubt me and my twin's most favourite pub in the city centre and is a pub we've visited literally hundreds of times over the past 40 years. This is one of the oldest pub's in the centre of Liverpool and one of the best.This pub is housed in the stunning Rigbys building and look's amazing.The pub itself has a brilliant multi-roomed interior with excellent fixtures and features throughout this excellent pub with the Nelson room the standout area of this superb pub. There is a superb enclosed courtyard that has excellent seating options and on a hot day it's a great place to enjoy a few beers. This was the 1st pub we went to in 2024 and what a pub to start the year off in.We went here very early in the afternoon and had a few pints of OKell's brewery beers'a superb cask beer from the Isle of Mann that where served in perfect condition and where well priced considering the pub we were in. This is a superb pub in a superb area thats well worth a visit and is easy to locate from Moorfields train station its just a short walk away.(This is my fifth review of Rigby's). Opening Hours. Monday-Sunday-12.00-23.00. Public Transport. Bus Stop. North John Street Bus Stop-12-13-14-14A-14B-14C-17-17A-19-20-136. Train Station. Moorfields Train Station.

Very Friendly, and a god selection of beer. Have been here before, staff always pleasent, great place to take visiting friends.

Service was not friendly (very matter of fact) and food was woeful. Waited 50mins for fish and chips and nachos. Food came it was awful to say the least and it cost us £33 with a beer and wine. Ripe off. Maybe go for a drink, as it was busy with lunch time people popping in for drinks (they didn’t get food and I now understand why). Would not recommend…

Just popped in as read review from an American. Disappointed there was no Guinness. Food excellent and steak and ale pie, Sue said was to die for. I had beer battered haddock also delicious. Tried a couple of real ales too. Staff were brilliant.

Visited Saturday for a couple of drinks with friends and had a great experience, service was fast and all employees had a smile on their faces which was lovely to see! Sol looked after us majority of the evening and was a great laugh which encouraged us to stay longer and end our night there.

Nice wee pub, we'd visited the day before and sat in the courtyard. The night we had food the courtyard was full so we stayed inside. Food was ok, nothing exceptional, hubby has pizza and i had a small haddock & chips, which was fine. The staff seemed a bit bored and we were a bit bemused when the waitress brought the food to our table then walked off. So we helped ourselves to cutlery, napkins, vinegar & ketchup since we apparently weren't getting any... a man at another table saw us do this.. so he helped himself too! It was ok but we'd try somewhere else if we ever visit Liverpool again..

Outstanding food and customer service will be back again when we next visit Liverpool highly recommended this pub you are made to feel very welcome

Ottimo pub tradizionale. Cibo molto buono: consiglio la Ale and steak pie e lo scouse (uno dei piatti tipici di Liverpool). Anche le jacked potatoes erano notevoli. Personale molto gentile: avendo dimenticato di aggiungermi il bacon in una ordinazione, ci hanno offerto due bibite. Ubicato in posizione centrale. Essendo un tipico pub serve la cena al massimo fino alle 19. Consigliatissimo

Went there today for lunch with a friend. Ordered chicken burger and chips, which has been nice in last couple of visits. Today it was just a piece of dry chicken breast which, after a couple of bites, put down. Weird taste ss well. Had the chips, which were ok. Paid £10. Not worth it. Why change the way the food was before? Laziness or different chef? However, lad behind bar was great, friendly.

On a really hot Thursday afternoon ,June weather is amazing at the moment my twin brother Stephen decided to have a day out in the city centre visiting the great pubs our city is justifiably famous for ,top of the list was Rigby's Pub. Established in the 1700's ,this pub is a classic British pub ,the interior is superb ,main room dominated by a cool looking serving bar ,great decor and furnishing ,there's a narrow room to the right of the pub ,more for dining and there's the Nelson Room ,this room is superb ,exposed brickwork ,an ancient fireplace ,paintings of the great admiral who lends his name to this room on the walls,there's also a shared courtyard outside which is fab ,all in all it's a great pub to chill out in. We sat inside as all outside seating was occupied ,we ordered premium ale's fro Big Bog Brewery ,served in excellent condition ,we kicked back ,chilled out and took in the great pub we were in. This ale was super tasty ,hoppy ,well balanced ,hints of caramel ,when this ale is served in pristine condition as in this pub it's such a delicious ale indeed. We both really enjoyed our ale's in here before we moved on and although our visit was only fleeting as in every other visit to here we had a great time. Rigbys Pub is easy to locate along Dale Street. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday,midday till 11pm. Well worth a visit if you're in this area of the city .

Without a shadow of a doubt one of the best real ale pubs along Dal Street but also one of the most historic ,it's a pub that dates from 1726 and walking in and you can feel the history attached to this pub. It's a three roomed pub ,each room has it's own distinct character ,main drinking room is superb ,a great looking serving bar ,period features ,great furnishings and decorated tastefully throughout ,side room is narrow and very cool looking ,more a dining area ,in my opinion the Nelson Room at the rear of the pub is the most evocative and is in honour of the great admiral with painting of the great man and his ship adorning the walls ,there's also a shared courtyard out back complete with big screen to enjoy the sport ,it's just an amazing pub to chill out in. We were here on a Monday afternoon ,pub was already busy with a great atmosphere ,we sat in the Nelson Room after ordering a pint each of pale ale ,these were served in tip top condition ,we settled down and planned out the day ahead while sipping our pale ale's. Pale ale served here was exceptional ,crisp,well balanced ,hoppy ,hints of toffee and a delicious aroma and aftertaste ,hats off to the cellar person for the great condition he keeps and serves his real ale's in. We really enjoyed our pale ale's in here before we moved on and as on every other visit to here we had a great time. Rigby's is easy to locate along Dale Street. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday ,midday till 11pm. A wonderful and historic pub ,well worth seeking out if you're in the area.

Thomas Rigby's is an historic pub which is housed in the prominent Rigby building on Dale street.Opened in 1726'this is without doubt one of the best pubs in the centre of Liverpool.With a multi-roomed interior with many interesting fixtures and features and where the famous Nelson room is located which is a very atmospheric room and very popular especially if you are having a meal in this pub.Thomas Rigby's is blessed with a fantastic courtyard which is ideal at the moment as since the lockdown was ended on April the 12th there is only outside table service for the hospitality sector. We have been coming here for many years and this is my first visit this year due to the pandemic.On entry we gave our details for the track and trace and we were shown to our table in the courtyard.When we visited here we ordered a few pints of beer from a brewery based in the Isle of Mann which is called Okells.The beers we had where first rate as is th norm in this pub and very well priced.Thomas Rigby's is in my opinion one of the best pubs in the city centre and well worth visiting for anyone who enjoys well served beers and superb meals in an historic pub with bags of character.Very easy to locate from Moorfields train station turn right on Dale street and walk along for a couple of minutes.(This is my second review of the Thomas Rigby).Opening Hours.Monday-Sunday-11.30-23.00.Hours May Differ From Above Due To The Covid 19 Restrictions.Nearest Bus Stop. North John Street bus stop.Nearest Train Station. Moorfields train station.

Prime Minister Boris laid out the roadmap out of the pandemic for the hard hit hospitality sector with pubs being allowed to reopen on the 12th of April with outside service only and from the 17th of May inside and outside service allowed and by June 21st more or less back to normality so on the 12th of April my twin brother Stephen and I jumped the train down from Kirkby to Liverpool City Centre and visited some of the great pubs our city is justifiably famous for and Rigby's was at the top of our list of pubs to go too .A wonderful pub, multi roomed, dark wood features, a solid wood serving bar, great decor and furnishings and plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub both inside and outside in their wonderful courtyard, with outside service only this is were we chose to drink .Greeted with a smile by a very pleasant member of the staff, we gave our details of name and phone number to assist with the governments track and trace system on our N.H.S covid app on our phones and then we were allocated a table in the courtyard, we ordered Okells Brewery bitter each,these were served in pristine condition, we just kicked back, chilled out and soaked up the convivial atmosphere that only a pub can generate. My bitter was just so good ,a rich,well balanced bitter bursting with taste, after over three months without a draught ale it was something I savoured.I must say the staff here are spot on with their social distancing rules which ensued a great and safe vibe in their pub courtyard. We really enjoyed our bitters in here and the great vibe so much so that we ended up staying for another two pints of Okells Brewery bitter each before moving on and as on every other visit to here we had a great time, it was just great being out and about again coming back to some sort of normality. Rigby's is easy to locate on Dale Street, a street and area teeming with great real ale pubs and craft beer bars. Opening hours are;Monday to Sunday, Midday till 11pm. A wonderful pub,if your in the area most definitely well worth checking out.

With the roadmap out of the pandemic laid out by Boris with pubs being allowed to reopen on the 12th of April with outside service only and from the 17th of May inside and outside service allowed and by June more or less back to normality pubs such as Rigby's will soon be bouncing again.A wonderful historic pub ,one of the best real ale pubs along Dale Street which is a street famous for its great real ale pubs and craft beer bars, the interior is superb, a proper pub ,great decor and furnishings, the outside courtyard is cool and will be perfect for the 1st reopening of pubs on the 12th of April, the real ale's in here are always served in pristine condition and the meal menu is superb, its a pub I can't wait to visit again when the 3rd and final lockdown is lifted, Rigby's is easy to locate along Dale Street, most definitely well worth checking out if you're in the area.

Without a shadow of a doubt one of the best real ale pubs along Dale Street is Rigby's Pub, a pub that I've been drinking in for more years than I care to remember.I love the look of this pub ,its multi roomed ,wood panelled walls, exposed brickwork, great decor and furnishings including a solid wood serving bar that dominates the main room, stained glass windows and plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub both inside and outside in their courtyard, a great pub ,a fantastic pub to unwind in. My twin brother Stephen and I were here just after the 1st coronavirus pandemic lockdown restrictions were lifted and pre tier three coronavirus pandemic restrictions that ultimately led to the 2nd lockdown ,my twin brother Stephen and I were greeted with a smile by a very pleasant member of the staff, we gave our details of name and phone number to assist with the governments track and trace system and then sanitised our hands, we chose a pale ale each, these were served in excellent condition, we just kicked back, chilled out and planned out the day ahead while sipping our pale ale's.My pale ale was really good, a crisp, well balanced pale ale with hints of toffee and a big hit of hops, very easy to drink, a pale ale style both myself and my twin brother are particularly fond of. We really enjoyed our pale ale's in here before we moved on and although our visit was only fleeting as on every other visit to here we had a great time. Rigby's Pub is easy to locate along Dale Street, a street and area teeming with pubs .Until the 2nd of December all pubs, bars and restaurants in the UK are closed due to the 2nd lockdown.

Lots of History in this and the sister pub. Friendly staff, lovely outside Courtyard area you could be anywhere when enjoying the outdoor space.

Nice drinks in courtyard full table service, find spirits here expensive for this area of city staff always helpful

Gran patio y medidas para la distancia social y el seguimiento y rastreo de los clientes, aunque los precios realmente altos hoy, creo que deben haber subido desde el covid: 1 pinta de luna azul y doble gin-tonic 15. 80! ! No volverá corriendo a esos precios, peor que Londres. Lástima porque buen pub y personal amable.

Thomas Rigby's es un pub histórico en Dale Street que ofrece una buena variedad de cervezas y un excelente menú de comida. Ubicado en un edificio que data de 1726 ', el pub está ubicado en la planta baja y tiene varias habitaciones con un área de comedor, un área de bar y la famosa sala Nelson. Todo el pub tiene muchos accesorios y características interesantes en todo el pub y Un magnífico patio exterior. Llevamos más de treinta y cinco años viniendo aquí, ya que ofrecen una excelente selección de cervezas de barril y cervezas del mundo a precios muy competitivos. Thomas Rigby's siempre merece una visita y cuando estamos aquí, un par de cosas han cambiado. Al entrar, tuvimos que dar nuestra pista y detalles de seguimiento y luego nos sentamos debido a la pandemia de Covid 19. Cuando visitamos aquí, tomamos algunas copas de Okell's Brewery Bitter, una excelente cerveza de barril de la isla de Man. Este pub es magnífico y vale la pena ir y si estás en el centro de la ciudad entra y prueba una cerveza o una comida. Muy fácil de visitar desde la estación de tren de Moorfields, gire a la derecha en Dale Street y camine hacia abajo durante uno o dos minutos. (Esta es mi primera reseña de Thomas Rigby's).Horario de apertura.Lunes - Jueves - 13. 00-23. 00.Viernes - Sábado - 11. 00-23. 00.Domingo - 13. 00-23. 00.Las horas pueden ser diferentes a las anteriores.

I’ve been drinking in Rigby’s for 38 years, it’s a great pub - definitely one of the best ten pubs in the city. Today, we walked into an absolute farce. Initially we sat outside but it was a bit too cold in the shaded part of the courtyard so we come inside. We asked one of the bartenders if it was ok to sit at the table next to the bar (it had just been vacated) - yes of course was his answer. We sat down. 5 minutes later another barman tells us we can’t use this table. Ok, so we move to another indoor table and another bartender shouts over the bar “you can’t just keep moving tables yer know !”.We eventually sat at another table, quickly finished our drinks and left. We did get an apology, but the three barmen were rude and inexperienced. They spoke to the three of us with absolutely no respect.

Uno de los últimos pubs que visité antes de que bajaran las restricciones de bloqueo por coronavirus y uno de los primeros pubs que volví a visitar después del 4 de julio se levantaron las restricciones de bloqueo por coronavirus sobre la reapertura de pubs y bares y el pub sigue tan bueno como siempre.Me encanta el aspecto del pub, el interior es impresionante, con varias habitaciones, un esquema decorativo con temática de ferrocarril, una decoración y muebles encantadores y muchas opciones de asientos repartidas por todo este pub, tanto dentro como fuera de su jardín de cerveza.Estuvimos aquí un lunes por la tarde, recibidos calurosamente por un miembro muy agradable del personal, dimos nuestros detalles de nombre, número de teléfono o dirección de correo electrónico para ayudar con el sistema de seguimiento y localización del gobierno y luego desinfectamos nuestras manos y pedimos una cerveza cada uno. , ambos elegimos una pale ale de Robinsons Brewery, se sirvieron en excelentes condiciones, nos relajamos, nos relajamos y disfrutamos del gran pub en el que estábamos mientras tomábamos nuestras pale ale.Mi pale ale era realmente buena, una pale ale crujiente, bien equilibrada, con mucho cuerpo con un gran golpe de lúpulo y muy fácil de beber, mi hermano también me dio el visto bueno a su pale ale.Realmente disfrutamos de nuestra pale ale aquí antes de seguir adelante y, como en todas las demás visitas, lo pasamos muy bien.The Railway Pub es fácil de localizar a lo largo de Tithebarn Street.Los horarios de apertura son;Lunes y martes, mediodía hasta las 23 h.De miércoles a domingo, de 10 a 23 h. Un gran pub, si estás en la zona, bien merece una visita.

Before P M Boris was forced to close down our beautiful country because of the coronavirus visited upon us my twin brother Stephen and I decided to pop into town and enjoy some of the great pubs our city has to offer and Rigby's is and always has been one of my favourite pubs .I love the look of this pub,multi roomed ,the main room is dominated by a solid wood serving bar, theres a dining room and at the back of this pub is the Nelson Room ,named in honour of Admiral Lord Nelson ,this is my favourite room ,theres also a shared courtyard outback which is cool .My twin brother Stephen and I were here on a Thursday evening, pub was absolutely packed with a great atmosphere, we got a pint of Okell's bitter each ,these were served in excellent condition, we just kicked back,chilled out and took in the great pub we were in. My bitter was really good, a really tasty,well balanced bitter bursting with taste,very easy to drink,a beer style I really enjoy, my twin brother Stephen also gave me the thumbs up to his bitter.We both really enjoyed our bitter's in here before moving on and I cant wait to visit here again as soon as our wonderful health staff have defeated this pandemic. Rigby's is easy to locate along Dale Street ,this street is Liverpool's premier street for real ale pubs.Opening hours are;Monday to Sunday, 11.30am till 11pm. A great pub ,one I I highly recommend you visit if your in the area.

C’est l’archétype du pub anglais, tout y est le décor, le monde, c’est chaleureux, c’est beau et en prime le fish and ships est bon.

Era la semana de la tarta y desafortunadamente la mayoría se agotaron. Después de elegir finalmente nuestras 3ª opciones, el orden incorrecto fue traído a nuestra mesa. El personal no podría haber tratado con nosotros mejor. Se proporcionó una bebida gratis cada uno, se entregó el pedido correcto y el 50% de descuento en la factura. Un gesto fantástico por parte del personal. La única vergüenza fue que la comida era suave y masivamente sazonada. La única razón por la que le daría a la comida una segunda oportunidad (todos los chefs tienen días libres) fue por el increíble personal. Servicio al cliente en su máxima expresión.

Uppkallad efter Thomas Rigby som köpte huset i mitten av 1800-talet. Vi var bara inne för att ta en öl, och njuta lite av stämningen. Ett mycket mysigt ställe att slå sig ner för en stund. Alltså har vi ingen erfarenhet av deras mat.

Packed like any good bar on a Saturday night, nice ales friendly staff and customers food looks amazing but just here for drinks

Rigby's along Dale Street is without a shadow of a doubt one of my favourite pubs,its a pub I've been visiting for well over 30 years and with each visit it gets better and better.I love the look of this pub,the main room is dominated by a very impressive wooden serving bar,tv's to enjoy the sport, great decor and furnishings, the back room or to give it its proper name The Nelson Room named in honour of the great Admiral who allegedly visited here is also cool ,bench tables,a very impressive fire place, great paintings including one of Admiral Lord Nelson, it's a very cosy room,you also have the side room which is more for dining which is lovely and of course you have the shared courtyard which when the weather is good is a great place to relax, it's just one wonderful pub.My twin brother Stephen and I were here on a Saturday night, pub was very busy with a great atmosphere, greeted warmly by a very pleasant member of staff, after a quick study of the real ales on offer I opted to have Okell's ipa while my brother went for Okell's bitter,both these ales were served in excellent condition, we luckily managed to get a table were we just kicked back,chilled out and took in the great pub we were in. My ipa was outstanding, a rich,well balanced ipa bursting with taste,very easy to drink,a real ale style I am particularly fond of, my brother also gave me the thumbs up to his bitter.As we were pub hopping we only stayed for the one ale each before we moved on and as on every other visit to here we had a great time. Rigby's is easy to locate along Dale Street,a street and area teeming with pubs,in fact you can do a lazy man pub crawl here as Rigby's Pub,Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub, The Saddle Inn Pub,The Lady Of Mann Pub and Jupiters Pub are all less than 30 seconds apart .Opening hours are;Monday to Sunday, 11.30am till 11pm. A wonderful pub,one I highly recommend you visit if your in the area.

Popped into Rigbys for a drink late Wednesday afternoon - gets very busy if a football match on.Very clean and really proper old type pub with wood panelling and lots of rooms - outside seating area in the summer.Service with a smile.Lots of pictures on walls of old Liverpool which were fab.Just on Dale Street 2 blocks away from the Town Hall and a few minutes walk from Cavern Walks area.

On the CAMRA trail. One of the best Gin & Tonics we had two for around at tenner. Plenty of beers and ciders.They have plenty of seating and loved the dark wood panelled room at the back. They also have an enclosed outside space share with another pub next door for those that want to smoke or just sit. Loved the atmos and perfect pit stop to meet who want somewhere central. This place has lots of character the only problem as with most old pubs in Liverpool is the toilets are downstairs so those with mobility issues may struggle but don't let that put you off visiting. Friendly bar staff and very welcoming.

Visited Rigby's last Wednesday evening with friend. Ordered one large (£12.50) and one normal (£9.75) fish and chips. What appeared was derisory. Whilst the chips were nice proper handcut potatoes, the fish was ludicrously small. I have seen larger 'goujons'! Not only were the pieces small but very thin and the fish watery. The normal portion warranted one of these, the 'large' two. I struggle to decide which was the poorer value. I remarked to the waitress about the poor portion size, to which she answered by asking us if we would like anything else! Clearly trained to assume nobody will complain!Shame, because I ate there a couple of years ago and the food was fine.Beer also good.Just wish I'd taken a photo!

Gewoon heel erg slecht eten. Pizza lijkt een opwarmertje uit de diepvries en erg slap, erwten uit diepvries, vis lauw en slap.

En levende pub med engelsk fotballstemning. Vi fikk mye god øl, men også en fantastisk god rosèvin, Discovery Beach. Vi spiste typisk engelsk lunsj og middag, og avla puben flere besøk. De ansatte ytte svært god service, var i godt humør, ryddet jevnlig og vi følte oss veldig velkomne! Maten var veldig god: nachos og burger.

Went 26/10/19 afternoon get 1 pint carling and double baileys £9.50 next door at lady of mann same drinks £6.50 extortionate

Schocking prices a liverpool gin and tonic and a bottle of Erdinger £12.5o. When i asked for confirmation from the manager she said it was correct. A rip off pub. Stay away from this place

We ate here last night. My husband had fish and chips with mushy peas. Mushy?? They were like water, the chips dried out but the fish was adequate. I had a southern fried chicken burger and chips. The burger fitted in the palm of my hand with room to spare, and dried out chips as well. £26 for this with 2 small cokes, would be one of the worse meals we have ever had. No one else eating here, perhaps they had insider knowledge....

Visited again in Spetember on a Saturday afternoon with friends- great proper pub with large outside seating area too.

Another old pub, great food nice pint, right in the city centre, A good starting point to make your way into the city center,,

Fuimos a comer algo rápido ya que estaba cerca de nuestro hotel. Nunca volveremos. Los goujons de pescado estaban poco cocinados. El medio estaba viscoso y parecía crudo. Los aros de cebolla eran solo un plato de desorden descuidado. El pollo estaba recocido. Lo único que era completamente comestible eran los palitos de mozzarella. Sin embargo, el personal fue muy amable.

Good place to people watch as it's frequented by locals, office workers and tourists alike. Wooden décor with an outside shared courtyard garden

De ida y vuelta a Rigbys en los últimos 15 años, desde los días del club Curry el martes por la noche. No ha sido por un año o dos, pero recuerdo que la calidad del plato Scouse fue excelente, servida con crujiente baguette y repollo rojo.

Algunos amigos se reunieron aquí para tomar una cerveza y comer algo.

Popped in to drink then eat. Great food. Just had a classic burger with French fries. They offer other kinds of chips which was good for our group. Burger was thick and not overcooked and the bun was nicely browned, though the lettuce was a bit hit and miss. Big portion of fries. Would definitely visit again.

We dropped in on a random visit and found the staff to be very friendly. The bar area is pleasant and the drinks were good. We ate here but found the food to be only average. The fish with the fish and chips was tasteless, over cooked and lacking in fish, and our friends vegetable side was massively over cooked.

This is a wonderfully historic pub serves excellent foods and great real ales. You get the feeling that the bar has not changed in centuries. The staff and the locals were all very friendly and polite and the place was spotless. We will definitely be back next time we are in Liverpool.

I also visited Rigbys on the Sunday of the Bank Holiday weekend. It was indeed very busy and a tad dishevelled. However I found the bar service very good, and never waited more than a minute to be served. Best of all, the O'kells IPA was superb.

visited today and had the worst fish and chips -and expensive-I have had. It was all batter and very little fish. I did express my dis-satisfaction the response being I will tell the chef. that was all. Maureen

called in on a sunday of the early may bank holiday in evening,wait at bar was forever. bar staff too busy talking to each other and their friends to serve the customers. good barstaff know who is next in line to be served but not here. bar manager had no desire to reprimand her staff for their poor customer care and didn't seem interested. this place used to have excellent staff several months ago on my last visit but has taken a downward turn for the worst.would certainly not recommend it to any visitors to our city as things stand,would suggest senior management need to take a look at the current sunday evening set up.

Having read previous reviews about the Thomas Rigby, I came in with high expectations and, in truth, was rather disappointed. It’s a nice enough looking pub but decor wise, it wasn’t as grand as I expected, and I thought it a tad dull.

Rigbys is one of my go to pubs on any trip into Liverpool city centre I take.

A great old pub full of character. Real old style pub interior lovely outside courtyard joining a few other pubs. Great bar with plenty of staff so quick service. Food great proper home cooked stuff not your chain rubbish. Steak and ale pie was awesome.

Great old fashioned pub with plenty of indoor/outdoor seating. Menu is on the expensive side for whats on offer and food service stops at 7pm but it was home cooked pie and chips or gammon and chips etc. The service was great with a friendly chatty waiter.

18th century drinking tavern with an old fashioned feel to it. Serving Okell's beers from the Isle of Man (a great brewery) and the food looked good too. A very nice stopping off point.

Went today for lunch - had the scouse...it was absolutely delicious and not skimpy on the lamb. Highly recommend this dish. Chap serving was very pleasant and friendly.

Décor very old and tired, loads of beers to choose from but a bit on the pricey side. There are plenty of other pubs that do it better.

Old coaching house pub. Courtyard for walmer weather. Typical pub grub with mains being around £9 as an average. Friendly.

Hace ya bastante tiempo que estuve aquí, volví para ver cómo era, sigue siendo tan peculiar como siempre con una gran variedad de bebidas y el personal es muy amigable, vale la pena el tiempo para pagar. es una visita

We had a late lunch/ early dinner consisting in a local soup dish and some beer/ wine. Food was tasty and the place was interesting and lively without being too noisy.

El nombre oficial es "Thomas Rigby". Fuimos a la sección de restaurantes ya que queríamos tener una comida. La sopa que pedí estaba bien, pero los nachos, patatas fritas y pollo que teníamos eran muy buenos. Buena selección de cerveza, y el personal es muy agradable y divertido. Mi sopa vino con una rebanada de pan y si estuviera ligeramente tostada, hubiera sido mejor. Es por eso que 4 arranques, pero aparte de eso, fue genial. Si vuelvo a Liverpool, definitivamente volvería a comer en este pub.

Llamado aquí con amigos a la hora del almuerzo del domingo. Cuando el camarero tomó nuestro pedido, nos dijo que al menos 6 elementos en el menú no estaban disponibles. ¡Nos dijeron que los habíamos atrapado en un fin de semana ocupado! Algunos de nosotros tuvimos que pedir 3 veces. Lo más decepcionante fue que se habían quedado sin "Scouse". Prácticamente desconocido en Liverpool!

Always liked this pub, nice old wooden feeling. I particularly enjoyed the range of drinks, nice ale selection. Multiple areas inside, quiet and lively as good pubs should be. Well worth a pint in here.

Friendly barstaff and a wide variety of draught beers available in this old style bars from yesteryear.
