| A refreshing new venue in town!
The Dil Pickle, formerly the Ship and Anchor on Cable Street, Southport, is now owned by Alan Turner and Jane Cooper who ran the original and super cool Cafe Bar Flava.
So many of their old clients are now being attracted back. People who want somewhere to chill out, enjoy good conversation and enjoy high quality music. |
|
The original Dil Pickle Club was one of Chigago's best known Bohemien locales, providing an unconventional meeting place for the uninhibited and the free thinking, including artists, anarchists, poets, jazz musicians and literary hopefulls.
It was frequented by radicals, drifter rebels, actors, tourists and a range of Bohemian types. To find the place, it was necessary for both the famous and infamous to squeeze "through the hole in the wall down Tooker Alley to the Green Light over the Orange Door" 22 Tooker Place! The atmosphere of the club was an enjoyable and stimulating mix of the radical, the rough, the erudite and sometimes the inane. Today's Dil Pickle in Cable Street, Southport, plays host to strange characters, such as the notorious Dixie Dean and Shaz Shack who live in a post 50's Bonny and Clyde bubble.

Southport's new Dil Pickle, although hidden down a cul-de-sac, is a little easier to find, but the motto remains the same: "Step high, stoop low and leave your dignity at the door" It offers home cooked food 7 days a week.
Live music, real ales, good company and some of the friendliest staff in town!

Local band Sons of Mod who have been compared to bands like The Who, The Doors, The Beatles, or performers like Jimmy Hendrix, James Brown or the Stone Roses, play at this venue once a month.
