This is a great traditional pub near to Southport's main attractions, the drinks are reasonably priced, it's a large pub with plenty of seating inside and also a nice seating area outside the front, on fair weather days on a Saturday afternoon they usually have an artist on outside which is great for a good atmosphere, on Sunday's they have Bill.I.Am doing Karaoke in the afternoon, again outside if the weather is fine, we really enjoy singing so this was great fun and Bill is a real character that does his utmost to get everyone up singing when it's busy, recommended from us , we've really enjoyed going here and it's close to our favourite hotel so it's perfect, we'll be returning soon. Thanks Lee & Dee

My wife and I planned on having something to eat and a drink at the establishment as it advertises all day food and is dog friendly. At 1540hrs on Thursday 3rd August we arrived to find a singer and three couples outside. We went inside and found the bar deserted, no menus on any tables, no staff anywhere to be seen and no smell of any food being available. After paying a visit to the toilets nothing had changed and my wife noticed a sign stating "No Service at Bar". It appeared that there was no service anywhere for food or drinks. No way to run a pub and when next in Southport will certainly not be visiting The Victoria.

Fantastic pub with absolutely amazing bar staff! Working hard and quickly to get everyones drinks to them as soon as they can, whilst also delivering great conversation that engages the customers! The kitchen isn't open but they are more than happy to allow you to get fish and chips from a local establishment and enjoy that on their terrace whilst having some of their beverages. Highly recommend, all in all great atmosphere and I will be returning very soon

My twin brother Stephen and I dropped into The Victoria Pub and what a lovely visit.Walking ‍♂️ in and I knew I would enjoy my visit here, a light and airy interior, an island style serving bar, nice decor and furnishings ,tv's to enjoy the sport and plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub both inside and outside looking out onto the busy and bustling promenade. We were here on a Friday afternoon, pub was busy, we gave our details of name, phone number or email address to assist with the governments track and trace system and then sanitised our hands, we had a study of their real ale's and in the end we both opted to have Sharpe Brewery " pale ale " these were served in excellent condition, we just kicked back, chilled out and took in the great pub we were in. This is certainly a popular pub, on our visit, the atmospheric was spot on ,staff maintained social distances for patrons and there were hand sanitisers placed at various points throughout the pub.My pale ale was really good, a crisp,well balanced pale ale with a big hit of hops, very easily to drink, a real ale style both myself and my twin brother Stephen are particularly fond of. We both 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. The Victoria Pub is easy to locate along Stanley Terrace .Opening hours are;Monday to Thursday, Midday till Midnight. Friday & Saturday, Midday till 1am.Sunday, Midday till Midnight. A great pub,well worth a visit if you're in the area.

We visited the Victoria pub on a recent holiday in Southport with our dog. The pub was very welcoming and dog friendly. They gave us a bowl of water for our dog and treats were available at the bar. There were plenty of places to sit with space for a dog to also lie down (need space as we have a large German Shepherd). We ate lunch there and the food was excellent quality. Would definitely recommend this place and will visit again.

We have been in there every August Bank Holiday Friday & Saturday in the last 5 years, usually around 9pm for a couple of hours, it's a bit dark & dingy & very loud but the drinks are cheap & very good (never had a meal there) & it's lively & friendly! To be honest there is nearly nowhere else to go in Southport after about 8pm as the whole place seems to completely shut down apart from the odd Restruant or Hotel! Really weird for a seaside resort, that is usually bursting at the seams during the day time???

Came here for Sunday Lunch with partner, her brother and his son. Selected beef dinner, wife went for turkey. Were advised that there maybe a 40 minute wait but as we were watching the footie that did not matter. Food arrived much sooner than 40 minutes and was excellent. Good sized portions of beef and turkey with fresh veg on the side. Roast potatoes could have been a bit fluffier on the inside but overall a good meal with excellent friendly service and a good price. Will be back.

Well I have visited here 3 times now over the past 12 months and each time I have had the same meal, the home made salt and pepper chicken burger. Every time it has been fantastic. Two large chicken breast breaded in the salt and pepper seasoning. Never once disappointed. Not the cheapest pub grub in town but certainly a treat. IN general the pub id very nice, all live sports shown on the indoor large flat screen televisions, and a lovely sun trap spacious patio on the front where you can relax and watch the world go by! Also dog friendly so its a bonus if I am in town with my black lab! The last time I went with my friend whilst out cycling, and we ordered a side of cheesy garlic bread and also onion rings, the portion sizes are humungous, so much so we struggled to finish it. Will certainly be returning in the future. Cheers.

We had a late lunch here. We decided to eat outside as the inside was a bit stuffy due to the hot weather. The table we sat at was in need of a good wipe. I had a wipe with me so, wha-la! nice clean table. We ordered fish and chips, as you do at the seaside, and waited. The service was resonable but the food was not very nice. The fish was drowning in oil and overdone. I was disappointed. The tea was good. I have to say the town/Promenade was earily quiet so it was probably not a good time to visit. I'd give it another visit.

Well, this was a surprise. You know how it is? Finally find a pub to eat at and sit outside in the sunshine? Football on the many screens inside. A couple of drinks and some thing from the well thumbed menu. "What's your table number, luv?" "Well I haven't got one yet as I've only just walked in" "Can't take your order without a number" Go outside find a spare table, come back in and order, go back out, and a couple of blokes are now sat at that table. Well, it got better. The well-thumbed waxed menu had some different looking things on, mostly looking like 'ping' meals & stacks of stuff. So, bubble-and-squeak on spinach with poached egg and hollandaise sauce for one, and chicken breast on black pudding and potato croquette and spinach with peppercorn sauce for the other. Now here's the kicker, they were both absolutely delicious, and beautifully presented, both for less than £20. 'Ping' meal or not, (and i'm still not sure), I don't care. I'm also not sure how it worked, with the pub; I'm guessing the food was prepared by Hellen's Kitchen as it is advertised outside. Is that part of the brewery (Thwaites), or a franchised kitchen? I'm here again on my next trip to Southport. Decent pint of Wainwrights to accompany

one of our favourite pubs when we visit Southport very welcoming staff in this warm and friendly pub. The pub is usually busy and always has a good atmoshere. and by recent visits the food has always been of great standard. There are plenty of screens to catch up with the sport, but due to the loudness of the games its not always a good place to have a conversation. A very nice friendly place worth a call in for some food or just a drink or two.

Wasn't intending to go to this pub for something to eat as we had never been before but so glad we did. Main menu looked good from outside it was a Tuesdays so fairly quiet. Large modern interior sat at table we picked up the 321 menu wow three courses 7,99 we wasn’t expecting much at this price boy was we wrong I started with pate my partner mushrooms fantastic lots of toast salad and lovely presentation the mushrooms came with garlic bread. We were shocked how much and how good it started. Main courses plaice chips peas and small mixed grill. Proper chips beautiful fish and small grill was by no means small he was very impressed and by the end of mains we were very satisfied but we had opted for the three courses just being greedy. Sticky toffee pudding and custard and plum crumble again presented beautiful fresh hot and the custard was divine.. So at this point absolutely stuffed. Very very impressed at the quality and service here at this price. We will definitely be back very enjoyable mid week meal out.. Just great value

Has been while since s found Pub that seems to have old school pub feel about it.Massive pub, although quiet when I called in (mid-week).Staff friendly.Food... I had burger and chips, when it came out on it's own wooden chopping board and chip basket was impressed, really did look good. However, if I should have dropped the burger I suspect it would still be bouncing now, my car tyres would have been more tender and easier to chew. I suspect burger had been cooked sometime earlier in the day (or month !) Perhaps I was just unlucky but the following evening went elsewhere, shame as it was otherwise a nice pub.

We popped in for an early evening meal after searching for dog friendly pubs in Southport, we were not disappointed. A friendly welcome from the staff, reassured that our dog was welcome as long as he was on his lead. The food we had was outstanding, I had the Chicken Kiev from the specials board and my wife had fish and chips and a brownie desert from the 3,2,1 courses menu.All the food is home cooked, not the usual pre prepared pub chain stuff, compliments to the chef. It was, as stated, outstanding, really good food and very well priced. The cask ale also went down a treat, a bowl of water provided for the dog.The pub appears very clean and well maintained, We will definitely be back, it was a pitty we hadn't found this place before.

4 of us popped in for a pre-theatre meal and were very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. The prices were modest but our meals were really enjoyable. Anywhere that can cook liver well without overdoing it gets my vote: delicious. We have already decided we're coming back, even though it's over an hour's drive.

Went here for food only to find kitchen closed, went to eat elsewhere and returned later. Good pub atmosphere, karaoke on Saturday night, (good quality singers) good mix of clientele all ages enjoying the night together, no hooligans or signs of any trouble.

Called in here a few times over past 12 months always had excellent food and service, good beers to (wainwrights bitter) most importantly our 2 dogs were also made welcome too - the bar staff brought them a water dish and a couple of treats when we got in.We had Sunday lunch which was excellent - piping hot and great taste finished off with lemon crepes and value for the money.We will be back again 10/10 from us.

Needed somewhere to meet up with our parents on New Years day in Southport with our 2 dogs. I had seen the dog friendly sign outside so we went in, we were made very welcome, we all had something to eat which was very good, reasonably priced and freshly cooked. The pub itself is lovely inside warm, clean and tastefully decorated, will definitely go back, thoroughly recommended.

I'd seen a review saying this pub was pet friendly so popped in for a couple of drinks Saturday evening, finished up staying until last orders, had a great laugh watching the karaoke, everyone (staff and customers) very friendly, real fuss made of the dog. We didn't eat but they do serve food

The reason we chose the Victoria was because it was raining and cold and was across the road from our hotel. We had cottage pie which was tasty but could have done with more potato on it. It took a while to arrive and presumed as it was quiet it was being freshly cooked.

I know my singing ability is limited so don't want to make others suffer. Others don't have this belief clearly! To those of you who could sing I enjoyed your efforts, to those who can't please don't ruin it for everyone else.....

Very nice place to eat. The staff were very friendly. The menu is very good. It took a while to get our food because it was all freshly done. We had the added bonus of entertainment too.

Got invited with a few friends to try out "tasties" for the new menu at "Hellen's Kitchen" now at the Victoria. Hellen was the former chef at the Tea Rooms in Birkdale and has been at the Vic for only one week. All samples were delicious and if they are anything to go by the full menu is going to be something else. I have a copy of the new menu and it is quite varied, not too extensive and with reasonable prices. I am sure that Hellen's Kitchen is going to be a great success. Pob iwc, Hellen......

Always stop here for a beer or two when on a bike ride along the seafront. Great staff and a good spot when the sun is shining.

We called in this pub after our very pleasurable visit with the family to the hungry horse. We were waiting for a taxi and decided to have a drink in the victoria pub whilst waiting for a taxi. We ordered our drinks when unfortunately my son knocked a drink over !!!!!!! DISASTER!!!! We were told we could not have another drink!!!!!! I am 65 for Gods sake !!!!!!! It is the first and last visit to this hostelry and cannot believe the attitude I have NEVER been treated in this way!!!! No wonder this pub was EMPTY on a Saturday night!!!!! We were not doing anything wrong!!! What a pity that we were treated so badly!!! Both my sons were visiting from London and are respectable professional people as are we and are amazed at this attitude!!!!!! avoid this establishment at all costs!!!!!

Had a Saturday night in here on a wet weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed our time. Wife doing karaoke & staff very helpful. Following day went back for a meal which was up to our expectations though slightly on the expensive side. All in a great place for an evening out.

Nice pint, I haven't been here for at least 15 years completely different. Clean tidy and friendly. 30p surcharge for using a card which is disappointing but overall nice.

No atmosphere. A bland menu any home cook could produce. Worst of all is the little obnoxious owner. The Left Bank 👎🏼👎🏼

Amazing meal at the Tree House. Lovely atmosphere, brilliant staff, very attentive. The best steak I've ever had, and a cheesecake to die for. Will definately be going back, and will be recommending it to friends and family. Compliments to the chef and all the staff.
