Pins Social Club set to transform Liverpool's nightlife scene

The much-anticipated Duke Street venue, Pins Social Club, is now open, bringing to Liverpool a ‘competitive and immersive social experience’ that is set to transform the city’s nightlife and social scene.

Pins Social Club features 12 custom-built full-sized bowling lanes split across two floors, a fantastic casual dining area, a karaoke booth, shuffleboard, pool, table tennis, beer pong, live music, DJ’s and one of Liverpool’s longest and most impressive bars.

Creating over 60 new jobs, this former indoor multi-story car park has been completely transformed into a 16,000 sq ft, 600 capacity, eye-catching social hangout, adding a dynamic new leisure attraction to this already thriving area of the city centre.

Daniel Gillbanks and David Scowcroft, creators of Pins Social Club and directors at D2, which are behind the development, said: “After years in the planning, we’re really excited to be opening the doors to Pins Social Club and introducing something brand new and totally different to Liverpool.

“Over the last few years, Duke Street has developed into one of Liverpool’s most up-and-coming areas and that’s exactly why we decided to make the street’s former indoor car park our brand-new home. The venue looks absolutely fantastic and we can’t wait for everyone to see it.”

Set in the golden era of bowling and social clubs of the 60’s and 70’s the venue keeps this theme recurring through the drinks menu, music policy and décor. The social club offers an array of “concretes” (milkshakes) both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, sodas, spectacular cocktails, craft beers and stunning wines, plus live music four nights per week. Pins Social Club has teamed up with Bacaro and Rocket & Ruby who have developed a range of tantalising dishes to complement the experience.

The rooftop terrace bar at Pins Social Club, which will open in spring, promises to be a destination in itself - a prime spot for the discerning drinker. With a wide range of top shelf spirits, a variety of both classic and original cocktails, and quality wines and beers from around the world, this is set to become a city hot spot.

Daniel Gillbanks added: “The nightlife scene is changing. People don’t want to just go out and have a drink, they want to be entertained and do something fun - what we call competitive socialising. Pins Social Club is the perfect place for date nights, groups of friends and students, plus we’ll have family sessions available in the daytime. We’ve got an amazing line up of live music from DJ sets to band performances and first-class food and drink, complete with waiter service and we’re confident PINS is going to become one of Liverpool’s top leisure destinations.”
