Many will have memories down this street
Cumberland Street, situated in the heart of the city’s Pride Quarter, is often overlooked by bypassers as it can be easily mistaken for a badly lit alleyway - especially at night.
The Poste House Known more affectionately as The Postie, the spot is one of the many backstreet boozers dotted throughout the city. The venue's target audience has changed over the years from local scouse traditionalists to a younger more flamboyant crowd. That’s not to say a more mature tribe can’t be found downstairs enjoying a gin and tonic, however, upstairs is a popular choice amongst the LGBTQ+ community, no doubt for its “cheap-as-chips” drinks and contagious atmosphere.
The original Masquerade, located near Clayton Square on Cases Street, had been one of the city’s first gay bars until it closed its doors in the 1980s. When the original Masquerade closed, the new venue on Cumberland Street was opened and named in its honour. OUT! OUT! didn’t make it past its second anniversary but is fondly remembered as one of the most colourful clubs to grace the city.
