Birkers

A biker bar this is not. Birkers Bar takes its name, with all affection, from the Southport village of Birkdale that it calls home. Found right by the station along Liverpool Road, wine, beer, food and especially tapas are the order of the day here. Another important focus at this popular local is sports, with all the major matches played out on the six HD screens, and music, with regular live events rounding out the experience. Book for a casual bite to eat or consider full or partial private hire the next time you’re looking for a more than capable host for a big celebration.

Birkers is most popular in the evenings, when Birkdale locals and Southport residents pack the place out in search of good company, good music, and a fine selection of drinks and bar food. However, those living close to Birkers’ Liverpool Road premises, right next door to Birkdale station, know that this bar and restaurant also does a great lunchtime menu offering a set of two courses for a great price. Choose from starters like the soup of the day, garlic mushrooms, or homemade chicken liver pate, before indulging in hearty Merseyside favourites like the Cumberland sausage and mash, beer-battered cod and chips, and homemade steak pie and chips – or go lighter with the lamb bruschetta or the chicken Caesar salad.

One of the pillars of the Birkers offering is the bar and restaurant’s fantastic tapas menu, something that draws people in from all over Southport to this Birkdale venue. Tuck into smaller plates and platters of duck or veggie spring rolls, Spanish meatballs, smoked bacon and creamy mushrooms, chilli chicken, battered calamari or fresh mussels alongside a great selection of wine and beer sourced from around the world. Go bigger with homemade international dishes like the Mexican chicken kebabs, crispy duck parcels, seafood pasta or the signature Birkers Madras curry. Last but not least, Birkers does Merseyside right with an all-you-can-eat Sunday roast for less than a tenner!
