The view from where we sit (Dec. 2014)
Winnie H.

We went there just for a bottle of champagne on celebrating a friend's birthday. We just went in and ordered a bottle of champagne and had a conversation after a post -exhibition coffee and cake break at Tate Liverpool. Not much can be commented on the service wise. The best part of this place is the view since it overlooks the Albert Docks. The Museum and Liverpool, Open Eye gallery and three graces are also can be seen when sitting inside Pan-Am. We chose to sit on one of the booths, which seems a bit too old and requires a bit renovation.

PanAm is a contemporary bar and restaurant, located in the Grade 1 listed Britannia Pavilion on the Albert Dock. Awards wise, PanAm won the coveted Taste of Merseyside Accreditation. The food at PanAm is a mixture of traditional and contemporary fare, with a variety of modern British and European influences. Three menus are on offer: bistro, a la carte menu and pre concert. PanAm has a good atmosphere and suits many different nights out including chilled or dancing dancing.

PanAm is a typically classy bar situated within the docks area which also serves up tasty and mouth watering food. It is an upmarket establishment which attracts some upmarket people who all know good food and good drink and this is exactly what is served up at this restaurant. In terms of professionalism and aesthetics this place is sensational and a great place to spend time in both eating drinking and socialising. That is what is so special about the docks its ability to build a community atmosphere and allow people to relax and really let their hair down but in very classy surroundings. The menu at this establishment is fantastic and mainly because of the choice and variety of foods on offer which is a mix of both contemporary and traditional styles as well as British and European foods. It can take a while to decide on your meal but that just means more time spent in this fantastic bar and eatery.

Vast and ultra modern, sparsely lit restaurant/bar situated in Liverpool's Albert Dock. Pan American club offers a truly pan global cuisine an extensive variety that covers everything from pan fried wood pigeon to char-grilled mahi-mahi. Very trendy place to drink and eat in, and more importantly, to be seen to be eating and drinking in. Prices are steeper than usual here but service and presentation are top drawer.

We're here at 5pm, just finished eating. I have to say not a vast choice of main meals at this time of day. My daughter had a cheesy pasta dish from the kids menu and a chocolate brownie and ice cream not too pricey at £6. They listed 4 smoothies on the menu but had none left of any kind!! Howsat? I had haddock and chunky chips. Very nice but for £11.95 I shouldn't still be hungry.. Tasted lovely but put more on the plate guys. Comfy seats and service good although it wasn't busy. Given 3 out of 5 for having no smoothies and overpriced fish and chips.

Lunch

Crab and prawn wrap with kettle chips and house coleslaw plus strange looking object told it was a chip it was not. Coleslaw was two teaspoon worth and kettle chips were nachos.

It needs new management. It's looking dated and untidy. Food is relatively decent but sticky tables and menus. Tasteless risotto.

As I celebrated my yearly Christmas meal by visiting a Marco Pierre…read moreWhite Restauraunt for the fourth year running, I went back to the location where my love for the restaurant chain from the funny and charismatic celebrity chef started, sadly the food didn't sleigh. Oh deer Oh deer. It didn't warrant A round of Santa-plause, Away from the puns, it seemed everything which went right last time I visited here seemed to go wrong, from the service, one staff member, in particular, seemed so disinterested, she became argumentative when I mentioned my Long Island Ice Tea didn't taste good, and she also didn't allow me to see a list of the spirits and I basically had to guess what I wanted to order. The fact they added a service charge onto the bill was the icing on the cake. Now I don't mind giving a well-deserved tip, but considering the service was poor and the fact it was added onto the bill was a nightmare, especially considering they refused to knock-off my beverage which I didn't drink. I really did hope my food would be better however it wasn't, my French Onion soup was hot (so hot I burned my mouth!), but that's the only positive thing I can say about it, the colour was awful, it looked like diarrhoea with floating bland onions. Considering how much I enjoyed the soup last time I came to this specific location it was a huge let-down. Hoping my main would be better, I opted for a Christmas Dinner with modifications to make it gluten-free, these modifications include removing the stuffing, bread sauce, pigs in blankets and adding bacon (while still not giving me more or anything else, and charging full price), it already felt like half a dinner. The food again didn't taste as good as it looked, infact it actually seemed to look better on my iPhone 12 Pro Max camera than it did in the flesh. The turkey was rather chewy, the sprouts were undercooked and the vegetables were bland, the gravy which is supposed to make a dish did nothing, considering this is quite a high-end place and it is affiliated with such a great TV personality and chef nonetheless, you expect better but what you get is rubbish. On my last visit, I was surprised to see such a low average rating and right now, I can truly tell why.

There are quite a few pubs in Liverpool named The Beehive but my favourite has to be this place…read moremainly because of its excellent location right at the heart of Liverpool and in close proximity to Liverpool One. This place is a typical old man's pub if you will and this is no bad thing as they no how to pour a good pint and provide a warm and relaxing atmosphere. At most times of day this place has a good crowd of drinkers inside all of whom seem to be friendly and welcoming. The staff are welcoming also and really make sure that you feel welcome as a valued customer. There is food available here and it is worth a try it is mainly home cooked dishes which really hit the spot when you are in need of a good eat. The prices are excellent for such a central pub and as such this place is a winner every time.

Nestled in the midst of commercial paradise, The Beehive flouts the new buildings surrounding it,…read moreholding on tightly to the traditionalism it appears to represent. In fact, at this particular time, there is a large and colourful dragon painted on the windows, in anticipation of St George's Day. Even though, as a city, we tend to get more excited about Paddy's Day, it's nice to see that some establishments haven't forgotten what country they're in. Last time I was in here I was accompanied by Red Watch of the local Fire Station (don't ask) and we were all squashed into the area directly in front of the bar. As it was the week before Christmas, it was understandably busy, but thanks to the company I was keeping, I never had to battle over to the bar to get a round in. Nice chaps, firemen... Anyway, this is your typical pub that is full of all walks of life from Liverpool. Not quite at the same level as the karaoke pubs like Cooper's, it still retains all the character of an old man's pub. Patrons are friendly and chatty, and you don't feel guilty for listening in on a conversation and laughing along with a joke. There's a convenient smoker's area at the front, and as the pub isn't that large, people tend to spill out to the front if the weather is nice enough. Not a massive range of beers and ales, but enough to keep everyone happy.

I'd eaten a Christmas meal here and everything. I'm like that guy from that film about the amnesiac. I forget his name. The problem with the Cavern Quarter Revolution is that once the old vodka is sloshing around your brain you'll begin to store the memory of it as taking place in the Wood Street branch. They all look identical anyway. Actually the Crimbo meal here, safely tucked away in a private room upstairs away from the riff-raff, was a good-quality, low-cost affair that would probably make Santa grin if he existed.

Came here for a cocktail making event with a late lunch afterwards…read more The cocktail making was brilliant. We were taken upstairs to our own private room in the bar where we got a cocktail demo and each got to go behind the bar and make our own cocktails. The guy doing the demo made it fun and was happy to help us get all the techniques right (much harder than it looks!). We were a group of about ten and were 30 minutes late but he made sure he whizzed through it do we each got a go. The dinner afterwards was pretty average. We were seated on two very small tables between the 10 of us which made for quite a crowded table. I ordered the chicken starter (was ok, nothing special), rump steak and fries (again ok, but the steak could have been better quality - was quite chewy), and a chocolate brownie desert (a little dry, could have had more ice cream and less brownie to balance it out). Overall I'd give the cocktail session a 4 but the food a 2. It really wasn't memorable at all.
