The Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub in Liverpool

Amazing atmosphere and service. Music is great, people are the best. I would love for it serve some food to have with my Guinness. Other than that, a must in Liverpool.

Liverpool's oldest pub dating back almost 300 years! We visited as part of Bus Brewery Tours Liverpool, and was introduced to the landlord, who is a very lovely affable chap, and had a joke and a laugh with our party. The pub is full of character, with the beer cellar being above the main pub, and full of small anecdotes such as women not being allowed in before the 70s. Definitely a must visit stop if you're a fan of history, pubs, or just in Liverpool as a tourist!

Muy buen pub, buena selección de cervezas, incluyendo una alemana (que es mi favorita) El pub en sí es anticuado, que me encanta solo quejarme de que los asientos podrían ser reemplazados como hay lágrimas.

Grate place for a few drinks in a proper pub

Great pub with the Beer well kept . Nice inside with lots of character and friendly bar staff . 👍

Quiet little pub with very funny annecdotes

Been here many times over the years and great evey time. Thanks Steve

Friendly staff and great service

Oldest bar in Liverpool! Awesome vibes

The oldest pub in Liverpool with all its dandruff, gnawed armchairs and weathered walls.

The oldest pub in Liverpool. A genuine place, with very good music and live concerts. Pretty cheap prices for Liverpool. I have to say that it is the place with the most pleasant atmosphere we have been to in the city. The people who go to the bar are very kind and friendly. They treated us very well. Our favorite Liverpool pub.

Great pub, very friendly staff and got talking to landlord and got a glass of port to drink with him and got talking regarding the pub and other things, defo be calling back again

This pub is a must to visit .What lovely place .Great friendly pub with a lot of history, told to us by Steve the owner ,will definitely be back .

Great, atmospheric interior, although the exterior looked fake. Good choice of beer.

A very friendly place. Nice beer and a snug place for a drink.

Loads of quality beers and spirits at really good prices. Bar staff were very friendly and had a great sense of humour.

Lovely warm, old fashioned pub on a very cold day.

A very special pub with fantastic traditional interior, great ales and spirits, and brilliantly hosted by Steven

Great atmosphere, very friendly. Good choice of beers 🍺.

Best bar in Liverpool by far, hopefully when you visit, you get a chance to meet the owner, Steven. The hospitality is second to none. He has great stories, makes the atmosphere of Liverpool's oldest bar that much better. Would highly recommend getting a couple cask beers and talking to Steven and Lisa. Guaranteed to have a great time.

Just called in to this pub like a real ale Asked for a bitter served by barmaid put card reader to me no hello that'll be -price? Asked if the bitter had been pulled recently as it smelled off tasted as bad won't be back.

Great traditional pub.. nice atmosphere. How a pub should be

Oldest pub in Liverpool Great old pub

Encantador pub a la antigua en Liverpool maravilloso, hemos visitado aquí en algunas ocasiones, pero esta visita nos atendió una camarera tan ignorante y desagradable nunca nos habló o nos dio la bienvenida, nunca dijo por favor, gracias o incluso adiós cuando pusimos los vasos vacíos en la barra al salir. Por lo tanto, estaremos echando de menos este bar en el futuro,

The oldest pub in Liverpool we'll worth a visit

Amazing pub, during my trip to London and Liverpool by far the best of the bunch. Owner was conversational and extremely positive and just loves his job.

One of liverpools hidden gems. Love this pub. Good selection of beers. Nice and cosy

Steve is the real deal. If you don’t come here for a pint you ar missing out!

Only came in for drinks so cannot comment on food. The pub was fantastic, a proper traditional pub with a good atmosphere . The staff were brilliant. Will definitely be calling back.

Only in the door 2 mins and the warmth of this place poured over me ..Steve the owner proudly prepared me an award winning pint of creamy Guinness (certificate inside the door as proof ) and gave me a brief history of how he became the owner of Liverpools oldest pub (300 years old in 2024)A superb pub with lots of atmosphere and charm and a must see and do if your visiting Liverpool...10/10

My wife took our granddaughter to the theatre so I had a walk to find a pub I dropped on this absolute gem , Steven entertained from the start & made me feel as though I’d been a local for years . The staff were lovely & very informative about the resident ghost 👻👻 Highly recommended is the “special” Guinness 👍👍 on our next trip to Liverpool I will be back for a “ couple “

Nice old style pub exactly how i like them Live entertainment on a Sunday Afternoon

Estaba en Liverpool para una cita y llamó para una copa rápida en el camino de regreso a la estación de tren de Moorfields. Pasaron unos años desde la última vez que visité y había olvidado lo bueno que era. Ambos estábamos hambrientos y buscando algo de comer, pero nos dijeron que no hacían la comida, pero podíamos pedir en la tienda de tapas / sándwich español de al lado, que resultó ser excelente. Este es un pub adecuado con un personal súper amable, con Steve el gerente y Lisa su hija, madera y latón en abundancia y una buena selección de cervezas en barril bien cuidadas y Guinness perfecto. El lugar está impecable con tableros de mesa que se ven y se sienten como si hubieran sido limpiados y blanqueados, mucho mejor que el pegajoso pulverizado y limpiado que se encuentra en la mayoría de los pubs en estos días. Teníamos la intención de tomar solo una copa, pero el ambiente era tan relajado y agradable que solo tuvimos que tomar otra, y tuvimos la tentación de quedarnos más tiempo, pero tenía un tren que tomar. Si nunca has estado en este pub antes te lo estás perdiendo.

Uno de mis pubs favoritos en Liverpool es Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub, es también uno de los pubs más antiguos de Liverpool que data de 1726 , es un pub que siempre disfruto visitando en cualquier viaje al centro de Liverpool que tomo. El pub en sí es excelente, un bar de servicio de madera maciza domina la sala principal, una hermosa chimenea, gran arte de la pared, decoración ecléctica y muebles, vidrieras, habitaciones cómodas y un montón de opciones de asientos repartidos por todo este pub tanto dentro como fuera con vistas a la concurrida y bulliciosa Hackins Hey, una de las calles más antiguas de Liverpool. Estuvimos aquí el lunes por la noche en un pub que estaba ocupado con un gran ambiente, un estudio rápido de su cerveza real que es muy impresionante, al final los dos optamos por tener cerveza pale de Weetwood Brewery, estos se sirven en excelentes condiciones, nos relajamos y empapamos de la gran vibra en este pub ocupado y popular mientras bebíamos nuestra cerveza pale. Mi pale ale estaba muy buena, una pale ale crujiente, bien equilibrada, toques de toffee, un delicioso aroma y regusto con un final suave, muy fácil de beber, no es sorprendente que este pub sea tan popular entre las cervezas reales de esta calidad. Realmente disfrutamos de nuestra pale ale's aquí antes de seguir adelante y aunque nuestra visita fue solo fugaz como en cualquier otra visita a Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub nos lo pasamos muy bien. Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub es fácil de localizar a lo largo de Hackins Hey. El horario de apertura es; Lunes a domingo, abierto desde mediodía. Vale la pena comprobar si estás en la zona.

This is the oldest pub in the city. The date on the wall says it's been in business since 1726. So in two years time it will actually be 300 years old. I've heard that this pub is unusual in another way in that the beer cellar is on the first floor. The reason apparently is that it used to be a Quaker cemetery and the pub was built over it. It's a very warm and welcoming place and judging from the atmosphere the locals love this place.

Lovely old fashioned pub only 5 minutes from madness of Matthew street Has kept it traditional shape with little snugs and features Nice mix of locals and others If you’re around area and fancy a more relaxed pint nice place to pop in

Great old fashioned pub for drinking

Qué gran pub. ¡El pub más antiguo de Liverpool! Steve y el personal eran geniales, fantástica selección de cervezas tanto de estilo antiguo como nuevas 🍺 en un ambiente clásico. Una visita obligada para cualquiera que visite Liverpool

Fabulous atmosphere and friendly pub Great place for meeting up with friends.

We took a friend who was visiting from US. Cosy place with a friendly atmosphere.

Nice liitle pub with a big atmosphere 👌🏻

Me encanta este lugar. Mi esposa y yo siempre nos aseguramos de llamar por un par de copas cuando estamos fuera. Ambiente fantástico, el equipo del bar es brillante y siempre acogedor. Las bebidas son geniales, buena opción, y el lugar siempre está impecablemente limpio. Tiene que ser uno de los mejores pubs en liverpool si no el mejor.

We spent a pleasant evening in one of Liverpool's historic pubs, the oldest in the city. Your manager is extremely friendly. Totally recommended.

Fantastic little oldi world pub with great atmosphere and reasonably priced drinks,well worth a visit

Absolutely splendid atmosphere, and the staff was very very verry friendly

Visited again Thursday 1st August. My favourite pub in Liverpool, friendly staff and great beer. Was really welcomed .Hope to be back soon

Such a welcoming place- great people!!! Just so much history and fun… along with a great name- can’t go wrong with a stop for a pint here!

Lovely place and lovely friendly people

Nice pub thats almost 300 years old, had live music when i went mid day.

What a wonderful little pub. Everyone was so welcoming and warm. Felt like I was at my neighborhood pub with friends. If you only have time for one pub in Liverpool seek out this gem.

Didn't have food. Young man behind bar was lovely

Pub with a very interesting history. Oldest public house in Liverpool 1726 the same year Liverpool Castle was demolished. Men only pub until 1976.

Had a brunch pint of Guinness here on the 15th July.. very friendly staff and a few Americans there also . Everyone in top form . Old old school pub , I loved it

The host was a very charming gentleman. He made us feel very welcome. We are from Pittsburgh pa. I highly recommend this pub Donald. Our host offered us a plate of sandwiches. Highly recommended

What an amazing lovely pub. As soon as we walked in to this lovely place , Ste who owned the pub introduced himself. Made us feel so welcome. Staff are lovely. Beer great. Will definitely be coming back. Thank you again to Ste x

Was visiting England for the first time and received as such... Was looked at as if i were a stranger and not welcome... Very sad knowing that was the reason I came in the first place. Owner expected us to know what we wanted to order right away.

My wife and I wanted to have a pint at the oldest pub in Liverpool. We didn't expect to be welcomed in like old friends. The owner Stephen and his staff where kind, generous, and funny. This place was one of our highlights of our vacation.

An historic venue with friendly locals and plenty of character.

What an incredible experience! First time in Liverpool and im so happy we stopped off here, for a pint of Guinness! Owner and Lisa gave us incredible service 🫶🏻

Very warm and characterful pub where they allow you to order food from next door's takeaway to consume with your drink Landlord friendly and funny

Loved this little pub. Great service and comfortable seats. Loved the piped music as well.

No food in the oldest pub in Liverpool

Lovely little traditional, old fashion boozer...even has a old fashion telephone booth! The real jewel in the crown here though has to be the people...Steve the landlord...friendly, funny, generous, witty, with an immaculate fashion sense ( very dapper). Lisa, the barmaid....friendly, helpful and great advice on best restaurants etc. We entered among strangers, but left with new friends. Thank you Steve and Lisa...don't ever change.. 2 more for the fan base Diane and Helen xx

Lovely old style pub in the centre of Liverpool, very friendly.

First time in this pub and definitely won't be the last!

Old world charm! Nice beer, great atmosphere!

Came up for a visit to Liverpool, first time ever visiting this wonderful city and happened to pass by this little pub while looking for the statue of Billy Fury. We had noticed how friendly everyone in Liverpool and thought we would pop our heads in ‘the oldest pub in Liverpool’ and what a gem it is! It was early afternoon but we were greeted to a warm welcome by the man I can only assume is the owner or manager ‘what can i get you’? and the banter started straight off. This fella is really funny and warm and we were made to feel very welcomed. My boyfriend was the giggle and titter which he got to taste and was then topped back up, you don’t get that down south! Would 💯 pop back in if I’m back In Liverpool. We didn’t eat so can’t rate food but I’m sure if we had eaten it would have been lovely. The toilets are very clean and smelled lovely and the bar was full of interesting things and a fee locals who were all friendly. Wonderful little place.

Liverpool's oldest pub. So cozy. Try it.

Busy pub on certain days, great ambience!

We had a sing around there, good beer great atmosphere. Be warned they do close early

A proper pub. Everyone was being warmly welcomed by the owner who we got chatting to for a bit. Great character to match a pub with well kept ales and charming decor. Only had 2 days in Liverpool but came back the 2nd day for more of the same. A bit of history and a touch of class. Great stuff!

Always enjoy this place, good old fashioned liverpool pub.

One of Liverpool's oldest pubs, retaining all the old interior architecture. Good real ale.

I went there for a beer and it was fun. The owner is very welcoming and we immediately started talking. This pub is very cozy and due to its age, it has a unique charm. I've been to pubs in Liverpool quite a few times but this is the best.

I meant to write this months ago, when I visited Liverpool end of September. Hands down my favorite pub in the city. Tucked away on a side street, it's a pleasant place to escape the hustle bustle of the city. Friendly staff pouring great pints, with plenty of locals to talk to. I had the luck of meeting the owner the first day in town, and he gave me a great welcome. Port and Stilton on the house, and a great laugh with the regulars. I've never felt so welcome in a pub. I made sure to go back my next few days in town. Cheers

Still Very nice after all these years

Fantastic Atmosphere Here on a Saturday Night! Packed out but was able to get a Great Seat! Good Selection of Beers Lagers Ciders and Spirits!

Ye Hole In Ye Wall on Hackins Hey is one of the best pubs in the city centre that offer's a superb range of cask ale's and without a doubt the oldest pub in the city centre and is a pub me and my twin brother have been to hundreds of times over the years. Located in Hackins Hey which is one of the original seven street's of Liverpool'this pub is housed in a superb old building that was built over a Quaker burial site'Ye Hole In Ye Wall pub is reputably haunted by a couple of ghost's and given the age of this brilliant pub and it's history it makes sense. The interior of Ye Hole In Ye Wall is brilliant with an excellent multi-roomed interior with many interesting fixtures and features and superb seating options.There are plenty of interesting fixtures to this pub like it's wood panelled wall's and stained glass window's and partitions and is a joy to visit. This was our 1st visit to this superb pub this year and as usual it was very lively which is how we like pubs as the atmosphere is a lot better.On our visit we had a few glasse's of cask ales which where as alway's excellent and were well priced.This is a fantastic pub in a brilliant area and well worth a visit and easy to get to from Moorfields train station its a short walk.(This is my fifth review of the Ye Hole In Ye Wall). Opening Hours. Monday-Saturday-12.00-23.00. Sunday-12.00-22.30. 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.

Visited this place with my blind friend and his guide dog. Immediately made welcome with a bowl of fresh water made up for his dog without prompting. Great conversation from the staff, with some of the history of the place. Array of real ales on tap, all exceedingly well priced. Stunning original interior with great ambience, welcoming staff and wholly inclusive. Well worth a visit.

Oldest pub in Liverpool, good atmosphere lovely staff very friendly real ale served here worth a visit. No food served here

Feel like you're at home with how lovely and welcoming this place is. Brilliant prices for locals and tourists considering where they're located.

Up,out and about on a beautiful January morning, my twin brother and I decided to jump the train down from Kirkby to Liverpool City Centre to visit some of the great pubs our city is justifiably famous for, one of the pubs we visited was The Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub, a pub I've been visiting for more years than I care to remember. This is one of the oldest pubs in Liverpool, opened in 1726 ,its a superb old fashioned pub,snug rooms,stained glass windows, pubby decor and furnishings, nice wall art, a real wood burning fireplace, big screens to enjoy the sport and plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub, its just a great pub to unwind in. We were here on a Saturday late evening, pub was very busy with a great atmosphere, we got a pale ale each,these were served in pristine condition, we luckily managed to get a table were we chilled out and soaked up the great vibe in this busy and popular pub. My pale ale was really good, well balanced, hoppy but not overhopped, delicious aroma and aftertaste, a classic British pale ale served in a classic British back street boozer, it was just so good being in such a lovely pub enjoying a quality brew and sat with my twin brother, best beer companion in the world. 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 The Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub we had a great time. The Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub is easy to locate along Hackins Hey. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday, 11am till 11pm. Well worth seeking out if you're in this area of the city.

lovely little back street pub in Liverpool steeped in history. Great friendly staff and great beer.

Been to ye hole in ye wall many times always pop in when we’re in town. Keep meaning to leave a review, now I have . Went in today and got a warm welcome as always. The bar staff are fantastic and treat you like they have known you for years, Steve is superb and a great laugh, gave us cheese and crackers and some port , made my friend Lawrence feel like it was his birthday. Keep up the great work we really appreciate it thanks to you all for a great afternoon, Keith, si and Lawrence 👍👍

Met up with my sister and her family just after Xmas. I had my 18th birthday here and pretty sure I haven’t been back since. What a great old fashioned pub, real ales, great manager, old school hospitality. I’m sure time slows down here - we seemed to be in there hours and and only two hours had passed. Had a great time and will be back sooner than last time!

Fed pub, en god oplevelse, der kommer vi gerne igen.

A tradition Liverpool pub , friendly staff, with a good range of draught beers ,then you have exceptional food , with a very friendly atmosphere. You will not be disappointed

Great pub and very friendly staff, 10 out of 10.

Nice, comfortable . A throwback to the 60's

Steve the boss very friendly and has a great sense of humour always makes you feel welcome. A great little pub its the first pub we go to when town. I highly recommend you give it a try.🍺🍷🥃🍸

On a spontaneous sightseeing visit to Liverpool, we decided to check out Liverpools oldest pub and discovered Ye Hole in Ye Wall. It's tucked away down a little street, however it's definitely worth finding and dropping in. With a great range of beers, some real local characters and a landlord and team that makes you feel so very welcome, we were so happy to have rested our feet, have a great beer and meet some truly lovely people. Stephen, the landlord, came over to chat with us and shared some of the history of this place and his ownership of what he'd done to keep the heritage of such a place (it was founded in 1726 - WOW!!). Stephen also introduced us to Black Velvet - Guiness and Port - and we weren't disappointed. We'll definitely be back and look forward to dropping in next time when there's some live music on. We didn't eat on this occasion - but the food looked wholesome and tasty! Thanks for the kind welcome Stephen and see you next time Fella!!

The place was very warm and didn't stay long because the place was dead and nothing going on inside but people drinking alcohol.

The best pub in Liverpool, friendly, accommodating staff, great beer, brilliant atmosphere- if you visit Liverpool it's a must. Ste the owner is the host with the most, fantastic guy

My twin brother Stephen and I were pub hopping around this part of the city around the always busy and bustling Dale Street when we decided to cut down Hackins Hey to visit Liverpool City Centre oldest pub namely The Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub. This pub dates from 1726 ,interior is superb, great features abound, check out the fireplace, awesome, decor and furnishings are top notch ,stained glass windows, a cool looking serving bar, tv's to enjoy the sport and plenty of seating options,it's just a great pub to unwind in. We got a dark ale each ,these were served in pristine condition, we chilled out and soaked up the special atmosphere in this special pub. My ale was really good, malty,hints of coffee, a delicious aroma and aftertaste with a slight bitter finish to it, a classic ale in a classic British pub,it was just so good being in such a lovely pub enjoying a quality brew and sat with my twin brother Stephen, best beer companion in the world. We really enjoyed our ales in here before we moved on and although our visit was only fleeting as on every other visit to The Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub we had a great time. The Ye Hole In Ye Wall Pub is easy to locate along Hackins Hey, one of the city's oldest street. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday, 11am till 11pm. Well worth checking out if you're in the area.

The perfect quaint pub for a relaxing quiet drink whilst in the surrounding area. No negatives or complaints from me. I received an all round excellent service from the staff on shift at the time of visiting. Always clean & tidy pub would visit again and definitely recommend to other friends and family to pay a visit to this lovely little pub 👌🏼😊🍻

Reputably liverpool's oldest Pub Nice friendly boozer recommended
