Ex-Directory — Restaurant in Liverpool

Wasn't that impressed with this place. It has a novelty phone box entrance that's fun and different for 5 seconds. It's got the potential to have like a nice speakeasy kind of atmosphere, it would make a beautiful little hidden gem but instead they cram 50+ into a basement and blast out old 90s and 00s music to the point where you can't hear yourself think. It just doesn't work. It should be more subtle and relaxing, not trying to be a nightclub. There was plenty of groups of people that you could see were out to have a drink and chat, but they couldn't because of the music and the accompanying 19 year olds screeching the lyrics to the songs at 8pm. It's a strange mishmash of somewhere where you go to start your night out with the atmosphere of somewhere you end up accidentally at 3am. That being said, the cocktails are nice but very expensive for what they are and the staff are very friendly, but I definitely...

Only visit if you don't mind being ripped off ! Went with a large group ( 50 ) so had to pre order our cocktails . They were waiting on the bar when we arrived , which was well planned . The club it's self was fine , nothing special which I was surprised at as th get in you have to go through a telephone box. Table's are small so quite a fee were just stood around. Staff not very fourth coming & not too friendly . Table service only , asked for a brandy then they tried to charge for a double. Ran out of draught lager , very strange before a Saturday night so only had bottles which were more expensive. Asked for half of cider to be told 'they don't do half's yet its on draught to be told the dont have half pint glasses!!!! Asked for a glass for the bottled lager to be given a half pint glass 🤔 . To sum up , staff to busy talking to each other, over priced , nothing special & a rip off. My advice..........

Booked for a party of 10, ages ranging from 18-74. Booking was simple and leaving a deposit was all done online so an easy experience.

Entrance is, of course, 10/10 and immediately made the experience special, like entering a secret speakeasy in a movie.

Cocktail menu is quirky and priced as you'd expect in a city centre bar but you can still order your classics if you prefer.

The staff were really friendly and made us feel welcome; attentive but not over-bearing.

The setting was nice, an underground bar that isn't huge so some quiet corners if you want one.

A good mix of music that wasn't so loud you couldn't have a conversation, some sing along classics thrown in for good measure.

Drinks were photo-worthy and tasted great, we all enjoyed our visit.

Definitely will visit again, good fun and very...
