Liverpool. A Victorian pub with a renowned theatrical heritage located next to the Lime Street Railway Station. Built in 1846 it is named after its longest serving landlady Mary Egerton (it was called The Eagle at that time) who was also a theatrical agent. There are hundreds of photos of performers on the walls who have visited the pub - from Harry Houdini and Laurel and Hardy to Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. and Judy Garland to Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones and Amy Winehouse. It was also the first place in the UK to use a cash register, then called the "Incorruptible Cashier". Another interesting story - observations made and provided by the landlady led to the conviction of the Victorian murderer Dr. Hawley Harvey Crippen in 1910.

A must stop if you take the train to Liverpool Lime Street. A nice small bar accented by beautiful stained glass (and with a delightfully engaging server!) and two small rooms. You could walk around for an hour checking out the autographed head shots.
