Situated on the junction of Hope Street and Hardman Street, diagonally opposite the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall. Locally it is referred to as the Philharmonic Pub or simply the Phil. Designed by Walter Aubrey Thomas for the brewers Robert Cain & Company, it opened in 1898. The Beatles used to go there, and John Lennon once complained that one of the prices of fame was "not being able to go to the Phil for a drink" W.A.Thomas also designed The Vines in Liverpool, see Image]
