Girls night out in Liverpool for 40th Suggestions please?

yvonne9683

Hi
Wondering if you help people could suggest a decent place to go in Liverpool on Sat 18th August.
It is for a 40th Birthday get together. As we are all around the 40 mark we are looking for somewhere with a bit of atmosphere which is not full of posers?
Maybe a live band?
We are coming from Chester so need a bit of guidance please.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks
Yvonne

This might be just what you're looking for...

We had my sister's hen night there, good food, entertainment and a disco all in one place.

Alternatively I went here last night ( with 10 40something women)

Or if you fancied a meal, some comedy and live music?

just drift around Matthew street, area some decent all you can eats or italians Flanagans is good for a bunch of ladies on a weekend . music and dance . Hogshead often music and cocktails kittys is good for music and dance . Lennons Bar etc are full of 30/40+ and they play "good " music . "=" my type.. enjoy. P.S have you looked whats on at the telford warehouse. We ofetn go there for some good music . Are you travelling in and out of liverpool or staying ..

Train from Chester, be sure to purchase tickets before getting onto the train. The last ticket station is the Bache before you'll be charged full penalty fare.

We always tend to get off at the Central station, come out facing McDonalds by the Adelphi hotel. If you fancy a Subway, its just up the road on the RH side.

From here you have a small square loop, you can cross into "The Blob" formally Yates, then across the road into O'Neils then Wetherspoons.

From here, back through Central station concorse though turning right before the station entrance (*Cash Point Here) up towards Slater Street. Basically you go up Bold Street, turn right and you'll start to hear the music. Up here is Walkabout/Arena Bar etc (Aka Concert Square).

You'll avoid all the "Mathews Street/Cavern Quarter" hype/expense.

You can walk back and catch the last train back to Chester which was about 12:10am last time i went. If you miss this, the very very last train is to Ellesemere Port which you can get off at the station, grab a last drink in the pub down the road and a £15-18 taxi back to Chester.

Enjoy..

I would say concert square isnt really the place for a gang of 40 yo looking for a drink and a boogie and avoid the young show offs tbh . chav town agogo .

Thank you all for your suggestions so far.
We are planning Train in and maybe Taxi or late train back as we are all going camping the following weekend so watching the pennies!


All suggestions will be looked into!

Cheers

Central Station is closed for refurb at the moment (Wirral line opens 25th August, Northern line not until October).

Get off at James Street for Liverpool One (lovely restaurants there, I love the Red Hot Buffet) or Moorfields - there is a rail-replacement bus, but it's easier to walk I think.

Liverpool Central?

I only know 2 ways to come out, one straight ahead, past Sainsbury's and the cake shop, and the other, left at the cake shop onto Bold Street.

Is there a 3rd way?

Like someone else said though, Liverpool Central is closed at the moment.

I'd suggest Liverpool one for food, then Matthew Street or the Reflex 80s bar

I hope whatever you choose you have a great night!
