One of the quirkiest pubs in
Liverpool is the Peter Kavanagh. It's independently owned and was constructed
by an eccentric businessman in the late nineteenth century. From the outside it
looks any other pub but once you're in, you'll be amazed. There's murals on the
walls of famous people that Kavangh admired, including Charles Dickens, and
this famous landlord of himself even has caricatures of himself engraved into
the armrests. As we were arriving, the present landlord was giving a tour of
the pub, demonstrating the unique design of the tables including a built-in
ashtray and a flippable table to play chess or checkers. These tables are so
unique that they’re worth thousands of pounds on their own. It had been a long
journey to get to this pub, but we had to undertake the journey to deliver some
t-shirts that I’d carted up from the Midlands. As it was our last pub I'd
ordered two different halves, but I'd somehow managed to knock them over as I
wobbled back to our table. That was the perfect time to take on some water and
avoid the beer for the rest of the evening.
