King John opens its doors in Mathew Street

The King John has opened its doors in the heart of Liverpool city centre.

Pub Invest Group’s latest venture is a traditional medieval English pub that sits on Mathew Street and has an excellent choice of beers and cask ales.

The city’s new hotspot replaces the old Route 66 bar in the area and takes its name fro the monarch whose 1207 Royal Charter led to Liverpool’s ‘founding’.

General Manager Jimmy Boland, said “We are happy to be open in time for what looks like being another busy December on Mathew Street.

“The site, formerly known as Route 66, has seen a full refurb with a lot of original features added such as the old organ, sourced from all around the North West.

“The King John is another offering now as part of the Rubber Soul Complex, which also includes Erics, Heaven, Kaiser Keller and of course the Rubber Soul itself.”

The venue opening hours will be from 10am until midnight Sundays to Thursdays, and 10am until 4am on Fridays and Saturdays.
