Keiths Food & Wine Bar, Liverpool

Keiths is a great place to visit, great ambience, fantastic friendly staff, the decor and interior is outdated but it gives this place a character, a place which is always packed an evening and lunch times. I have read the comments on the toilets, the toilets may be old but they are very CLEAN!

Relaxed friendly atmosphere with a good selection of wines. The food is usually good too. The main thing that lets Keiths down is the shocking state of the toilets. Truely horrendous.

Keith's is a cracking place for a cheap but different meals from usual pub grub. Plenty of wine on offer and a few beer selections.
The menu changes quite often and the selection of foods is varied.
Generally it tends to get very busy but you can reserve a table if you phone up before hand.
The decor is a bit shabby but i suppose it adds to the atmosphere.
HOWEVER it get's shabbier as you go further towards the back and the toilets are an absolute disgrace, i am genuinely suprised that the owners have let the toilets deteriorate to the extent that it wouldn't suprise me if they were closed down. For the sake of a lick of paint and new toilets Keith's has let itself down badly.

An ex-boyfriend and I were frequent visitors to Keith's over a period of two years. We never had a bad meal and the food quality was always excellent. The wine list is enormous and very very cheap (many bottle under £10). Stumbling out of Keith's, having had a couple of bottles of excellent Portuguese red, was a regular occurance and I really miss the place!

The place is in dire need of a lick of paint but this adds to the charm, for the most part. There is art displayed on the walls, most of it for sale, and the tables are all mismatched, with candles lit in the evenings.

It can be extremely difficult to get a table, no matter what time or day you visit and the wait for food can be lenghty on occasion. It's always worth it though and the selection of food is great. Prices for food are very cheap and a main course is generally around the £6 mark.

Don't go to Keith's expecting glamour or polish. It's rough and ready and I wouldn't have it any other way.

This place is a real shocker. It may have been a cool palace to go to in the 70’s but times have changed and this has not moved on. It smells of the toilets which is really nice when you’re eating. It also got slated by the Environmental Health department of Liverpool City Council. There are better places on Lark Lane…

I’ve never seen such an unsinkable pony as that I stumbled across in the gent’s one night in Keith’s.It really stunk too.How bohemian.

Keiths is a place that could never be duplicated anywhere else - given that the place undeniably has character. This is because of the old wooden tables, the random assortment of chairs, the ageing decor and the strange layout of the building.

It’s pretty cheap as well, and very good for students - but not just for those who are strapped for cash - those who are quite arty or avant garde tend to congregate here.

This place overall is excellent. They have a brilliant choice in background music and the lighting here at night with candles is great.

There are a couple of down points which is why it doesn’t get the full 5 stars. I think that although it has character, it is getting very tired now and could do with a lick of a new second hand paint and some of the furniture now needs replacing. It’s also very busy so you are more than likely not going to get a seat and it can be very slow. It also has very manky toilets.

But I think the atmosphere and the clientèle make up for all this, and the uniqueness of the place is a definite selling point.

I know loads of people love Keith’s and always rave about it but i have to say it’s not one of my favourite places. Situated in a lovely area, you can’t beat Lark Lane it does what it’s supposed to, serves winne and gives you somewhere to sit. I’ve always been a bit disappointed by the food on offer, but it may have improved as I haen’t been there for quite a while. Full of students and arty types who tend to make it their own so I always feel like you’re allittle bit out of place if you don’t quite fit in. If you are looking for somewhere to share a nice bottle of wine and a chat then this is your place but don’t expect anything more than that.

Situated near the popular sefton park it is well liked by students and locals alike. Apart from the wine it also serves food aswell which is to a good standard. Most of all though the friendly local atmosphere is the real advantage of this place.

Keith´s wine bar is located on, and in a lot of respects epitomises, Lark Lane. It There’s a huge wine list (obviously) and beer is served by the small, or very big, bottle. The food is fast, good and pretty cheap - sometimes rather adventurous on the specials, but always at least good.
In the night time you’ll find that either there’s a band playing or, in most cases, half the people that arrived for a lunch time snack and stayed put are now rather merry and boisterously enjoying themselves. Watch out for poets trying to sell you impromptu personalised lyrics, or don’t, if you want a smile put onto your face and are willing to haggle for the debatable price of words. After about 6ish most seats are taken so you’ll have to be watchful of any leavers if you want a table.

It’s cheap too - i locked myself out of my flat the other day and spent about 3 hours in Keith’s: ate a nice meal (lamb curry if memory serves) and had two beers for less than a tenner.

It's Sunday morning. You have a hangover. You need food. KEITH'S IS THE ANSWER!

During my university days, Keith's Wine Bar was a regular haunt of mine. Situated just off Sefton Park, in bohemian Lark Lane, Keith's serve a wonderfully tasty and diverse menu ranging from the usual "pub grub" to more healthy options like salads and pasta dishes. It's all reasonably priced and you can lose many an hour just drinking and chatting in this wonderfully sedate setting. Oh, if you like to "people watch" then I'd say Keith's is the perfect place to do just that! You get a wide variety of customers here....some magnificently odd!

The decor is made up of lots of dark wood panels and tables and there is a little bar where you can get a variety of drinks. When you finally decide to leave, you can walk off your meal in the beautifully leafy Sefton Park!

A Liverpool GEM!
