This three-floor club has always had a huge student following, likely thanks to the events it holds throughout the week. Here, music ranges from indie, rock, R&B, hip-hop, metal, emo, and dance bangers. Entry is cheap and they have plenty of drinks deals. Bosh.

Where: 40 Slater Street in Liverpool L1 4BX
Award-winning Liverpool student bar The Merchant is a shout for anyone who fancies a lively night out but doesn’t fancy hitting a club. A student favourite, it features a cool interior, a big beer garden, cocktails, and unreal pizza. And they regularly have DJs on the decks.

Where: 32 Seel St in Liverpool L1 4BE
Need a beer garden? Head to Kazimier. The Kaz, a favourite of locals and visitors, is home to a selection of European and craft beers.

Where: 15 Slater St in Liverpool L1 4BW
Shipping Forecast is easily one of the best Liverpool student bars. There's free comedy on Tuesdays, 2-4-1 pizza deals, a three-hour happy hour, quiz nights, and live music on the weekends. It’s one of the cheaper bars and it has student deals (including £3 pints and 20% off food and drinks) so it’s perfect. It’s also dog-friendly. We probably should’ve said that first. That’s all you really need to know, isn’t it?

Where: 79 Seel St in Liverpool L1 4BB
Hidden away on Steel Street, Salt Dog’s attracts a younger, lively crowd. Known for hot dogs, an impressive choice of craft beers, fresh cocktails, and being a bit mad, you’ll have a good time here.
We also have to take a sec to tell you about their hot dog eating competition (pictured above). Scran four dogs, have a shot of Jager, and neck a stein first to win some mad prizes including loads of cash, dildos, and a toaster. Prizes might change at the next one but you get the idea.
Roxy Ball Room

Where: 26 College Ln in Liverpool L1 3DS / 8a Rainford Square in Liverpool L2 6PX
If you don’t like ArCains, you can try Roxy! There are two Roxy’s in Liverpool with slightly different games, so why not try them both?
There’s shuffleboard, pool, ping pong, beer/prosecco pong, bowling, a batting cage, crazy pool (mini golf fused with pool), karaoke, that basketball game and more.
But check which Roxy has what before you go so you aren't disappointed to find out the one game you were dying to play is in the other one. The Hanover Street one also has a rooftop terrace for when the sun finally comes out.

Where: 43 Fleet St in Liverpool L1 4AR
Brimming with students looking to get silly in the middle of the week, Baa Bar has DJs upstairs and downstairs, £1 shooters, 2-4-1 shooters or cocktails, £2.50 double vodka mixers, or 50% off all drinks on dedicated student nights.
Motel Bar

Once you’re drunk enough to embarrass yourself in front of your new uni mates, head to Motel Bar for a bit of karaoke with the house band. They have happy hour deals until midnight every night of the week, DJs, American beers, cocktails, and photobooths to capture memories of the night all your mates pissed themselves as you scream-sang Don’t Stop Believin’.
