| The New Penny Farthing is no more. The Courtyard Bar & Kitchen opened up late last year and couldn't be much more of a polar opposite to its predecessor. I initially tried to visit on a Sunday. But it doesn't open on Sundays, I later found out. But I did return on a Saturday in early December. The ground floor is the bar and the upstairs is a restaurant. Both enjoy nice views of St George's Hall. Although the door of the bar was open and it was quite cold inside. Ales were Rock The Boat Yellow Submarine Special & Bootle Bull & Liverpool Organic William Roscoe. A massive improvement on the New Penny Farthing. But I doubt I'll be a regular visitor. blue_scrumpy - 1 Feb 2018 18:58 |
| Apparently this dump is being converted into an upmarket 'Courtyard Bar & Kitchen' in conjunction with the Royal Court Theatre next door. wirraldrinker - 17 Dec 2016 17:09 |
| This place used to fulfil a function in keeping street drinkers off the streets - one wonders where they will be going now. anonymous - 13 Jun 2016 11:43 |

| Tried the New Penny Farthing more out of curiosity than anything, on route from Doctor Duncans to the Dispensary. It was surprisingly busy. There is a large downstairs drinking area, another upstairs area that didn't appear to be open and an unappealing outdoor area. The pub had some interesting characters, some of whom were clearly under the influence of something. The price structure seemed a little strange. Not wishing to stay long, I asked for a half. I was then told that a half pint was only 15p less than a pint. So I went for a pint at £2.30, meaning a half pint would have been £2.15. That would be steep even by London standards! The keg selection was Worthingtons Creamflow, Guinness, John Smiths Extra Cold, Coors Light, Tetley Extra Cold, Carling, Carlsberg, Somersby Cider, M & B Mild & San Miguel. At least my curiosity is now satisfied! blue_scrumpy - 26 Aug 2013 21:18 |
