Bizarrely we have lived within walking distance of this place for over 20 years and never visited until this weekend. Have to say it was worth it and our guide Kenny was fantastic and brought all the stories of the Beatles and the Casbah to life.. A very interesting and informative tour which is the true beginning of the story that was the Fab Four... A must visit destination for anyone who likes the Beatles or music in general 👍👍👍

Awesome tour from Pete Best's nephew. All true Beatles fans must visit the true place where they got their beginning. It's amazing how fresh everything looks for being 60+ years old. Also, it's straightforward getting here via bus from Liverpool's center for those not wanting to take a taxi.

Where it all began. Very insightful as how the Beatles became the Beatles. Frankly, not much to look at, but the story is amazing. If you are lucky enough to get Pete Best's brother Rogue as your tour guide, you are in for a treat. He is passionate about the topic and shares so many things most people never knew. Very cool!

A great insight to where it all began for the Fab 4. Very atmospheric, and some terrific memorabilia of when the Beatles worked and played there. The guide, Ken was hugely knowledgeable, and entertaining. A must see visit for any Beatles fan.

Fascinating part of not only Beatles, but Liverpool history that I knew next to nothing about. Ken, our tour guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and entertaining.

Phenomenal authentic Beatles memorabilia under one roof. The very first place where Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison, and Pete Best played as a regular paid gig. Lovingly maintained and providing regular personalized tours by members of Pete Best’s family. Their knowledge of history is excellent and provides a wonderful insight into what occurred in the teenage years of the Beatles (even before they were named the Beatles). You can book online for the tour and paid on the day. There is no signage at the curbside so you will need to make sure you’re at the right Street number of 8 Haymans Green West Derby Liverpool L12 7JG England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Once in the grounds the entrance to the Casbah Club is via the rear.

Unbelievable experience, great tour by Roag, great guy and incredible storyteller. A must see for every Beatles fan! Will definitely be the highlight of your trip.

Fantastic experience! Due to building work Roag wasn't expecting us but still slotted us in and gave the two of us a personalised tour. It was not so much a presentation as a wonderful performance..Roag was so engaging and made the whole thing come alive...we really got the feel of the place and imagined all those ghosts of long ago..thoroughly recommend it and we will be going back!

fantastic tour. full of interesting and fantastic stories on the Beatles. Rogue Best was brilliant. Engaging, funny and full of stories. we loved it

Great (and informative) experience if you really want to hear ”the start of” The Beatles story- lots of good tid bits to complete whatever you think you already delivered by a master communicator

The absolute highlight of our trip! Fantastic place steeped in Beatle history. We got the tour from Rory Jr, Neil Aspinall's grandson who was absolutely excellent and very knowledgeable about the history of the place and really went out of his way to explain everything to us. This a severely underrated and neglected part of Beatle history that a lot more people should know about and it was actually quite moving to be there. Note you need to book a tour in advance and it is cash only

Fabulous tour!!! Intimate and insightful. Would highly recommend.

A great experience for any Beatles fan! Soon to be a place to stay as well....so much Beatles history in the Casbah! And the Best family are so welcoming to the fans!

Fantastic to see the first stage used by the Beatles, the first 'crowd control's used, which was a 3 ft iron railing at the front of their 'stage' to stop the flow of overflow, the ceilings painted by John, Paul and George, etc. All expertly hosted by Roag Best Jr , Pete's nephew. The Beatles story post 1964 is well known and written. This is a great opportunity to know what it was like pre- Fab Four.

The best experience I’ve had while in Liverpool by far! Hearing about how the Beatles came about and who was who from our tour guide, seeing where they became famous and played there very first shows as a band!

Für Beatles Fans ein Muss. Der Betreiber nimmt sich sehr viel Zeit die aufregende Geschichte der Beatles umfassend zu beleuchten. Nur sollte man aufgrund des gesprochenen Liverpool Akzent einen Dolmetscher mitbringen oder selbst gut Englisch verstehen. Sonst kann man sich auch noch die vielen Bilder und Tafeln an den Wänden ansehen. Sehr interessant und unterhaltsam.

A must for all beatles fans. We were lucky enough to have the tour with Roag jr. He was so nice, caring and funny telling all stories. As a beatle fan I enjoyed every second, and i would go back every time I could if that would be possible for me. We could get a tshirt as a souvenir of the visit, but there were photos to buy too. We could take pictures and videos. It was really moving and great.

A really exciting experience. Possibly the most original and authentic Beatles site in Liverpool. The Casbah is well kept as originally inhabited by the early Beatles. A very informative and entertaining guided tour by Roag Best Jr.

The true birthplace of The Beatles, and therefore, not to be missed if you’re a fan. Tours of the premises are reservation only, and reservations can only be made through Pete Best’s website. On the day, only two other visitors were there to go on the tour with my wife and I. The tour guide was Pete Best’s nephew. This made the whole experience quite intimate. Most of the basement club is preserved in its original form. You’d be surprised how small it is. Size notwithstanding, the history is palpable.

If you're a Beatles fan this is the best thing you can do in Liverpool. Roag Jr. (Pete Bests grandson) gave the two of us an amazing tour, telling us stories you wouldn't hear any other way. We arrived on the day without booking ahead but I'd recommend that you do. They don't serve coffee here although i did get given a beer 👍

A must go for any real Beatles fan. After all, it was Mona Best who launched their career in this basement club. Met Roag, wonderful man and a wonderful place.

If you are a true Beatles fan who thinks you have done all things Beatle related in Liverpool, but haven’t visited the Casbah , then think again. At first glance this property appears rather neglected and when we visited we initially thought we had the wrong address. However this was our first stop on a four day , packed tour of Liverpool and it turned out to be the highlight of the trip. My grandchildren , aged 8 and 11, are avid Beatles fans . They thought the Casbah was the highlight of our trip. Being young and ultimately optimistic, they were convinced that visiting Liverpool meant a chance to meet at least someone with a Beatles connection , even Paul. I had read that sometimes Roag Best acted as the tour guide, so the kids were hoping to meet him. They know their Beatles history and are aware of the connection. Having seen Roag interviewed, I knew the young man who was to be our guide that day certainly wasn’t Roag, but it was Roags son Roag junior. This lovely young man was friendly , welcoming and very knowledgeable about his families past, the Casbah and the Beatles. Nothing was out of bounds. We were able to wander freely , take photos and videos and ask endless questions. We never felt rushed and were able to immerse ourselves in the history of this rather unspoilt and magical place. Neil Aspinalls grandson was our guide,wow. When this lovely young man heard we had hoped to meet his dad Roag senior, he rang his dad on FaceTime enabled my two grandchildren to speak to the man himself . A truly remarkable place, ran by passionate people who realise the importance of giving that unique connective experience to fans old and new. For the entirety of our Liverpool pilgrimage , my grandchildren were constantly on the lookout for Paul , Roag , Mike McCartney, Freda Kelly, Pete Best, Mark Lewisohn , indeed anyone who had actually known a Beatle. We missed Pauls visit to his childhood home in Forthlin Road by two days, but got to play the piano in the house . The same piano Paul played in carpool karaoke. We sang Please Please Me in Johns porch at Mendips. Despite their efforts they never bumped into Pete, Freda, Mike …….. etc , but they had actually spoken to Roag Best on FaceTime and been shown around the Casbah by his son Roag Best Jnr . Their one regret , they didn’t get his autograph. These children are fourth generation Beatles fans who are just happy to meet and talk to people with the slightest Beatle connection . I can honestly say that their visit to the Casbah was their most favourite part of our Liverpool trip. It must never be underestimated the role of the Best family in the Beatles story . True Beatles fans need to visit this truly remarkable place . Thank you Roag and Roag Jnr for this precious memory x Susan Horan and Family

Fantastic place to visit for the real history of the Beatles. The tour guide was very knowledgeable as he is a relative of Peter Best

We visited as part of the Fab4 tour. Initially I wasn't that impressed until we started to hear the history of the place. The host was entertaining and obviously had a passion for the place, Mo, and his uncle. Highly recommend!

Went to this place yesterday to see Pete best band the place was rammed red hot and could not get to the bar for a drink the venue is really small more people were coming in as the night went on had to leave without seeing Pete best band which we paid £30 a ticket for would not recommend this place to small for the amount of people they are letting in disappointed 😡😡

The place and story of where it all started. Great little tour with Roag Jr. Well worth a visit, we'll its a must if you're a Beatles fan.

You need to be part of a tour group to visit here. This is where the Beatles first performed , before they had a residence at the Cavern club. This club is in the basement of a house There are lots of photos on display and you really get a sense of what it would have been like to see groups performing here. The person who tells you about the club has many stories about the club. On our visit a singer who performed for the tour.

The TRUE birthplace of The Beatles ..a MUST visit .. like a time capsule. And hasn't been demolished,moved and rebuilt like the cavern

Absolutely loved this.Rogue was brilliant telling the story of how the Beatles actually started out thanks to his Mum.Loved the feel of the place knowing it had never been changed.With Rogues enthusiastic story telling it felt as though you felt you were there at the beginning of it all.I highly recommend this hidden gem to anyone who has never been.

Now this is a fantastic experience. Without doubt the most important Beatles site in Liverpool. Hardly changed since the Fabs were painting the ceiling, helping in the cafe and playing one of the two stages. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the story of this lost gem is amazing.Don’t miss it. Oh yes I met Mrs Best in 1978 in her garden, she chatted to me for a while and I could see why she had been such a driving force for the band.She would be proud to see that her family have kept the club alive.

We did the Beatles Tour included a visit to this club. The Brother of Pete Best was our guide. Great place for who is a fan of the Beatles.

For me this was a perfect amount of time to spend indulging in the nostalgia of the Beatles beginnings

Loved it. A super tour for any Beatles fan.

Easy bus ride from area of Cavern Club. Casbah is the real thing. Shivers knowing the Fab Four helped paint and did gigs here as teenagers. True piece of Beatle history.
