A pub in the town I grew up in, St Helens, had topless barmaids in the 90s.

The pub in St Helens was the Duke of Cambridge on Duke St, known locally as “ The Swinging T*t “

Another one sprung to mind I can't recall what the name was but proper dodgy city centre Manc pub... about 8pm on a Saturday night they stapled sugar paper to the windows and turned it into a full on two room nightclub! Went on until about 9am.

Happy days!

Thompsons arms...just came to me...Dancerteria that was the club name. Apparently went from Friday to Monday morning...crikey!

If you want to explain typical British pubs to foreigners who think its all wooden beams, warm beer and affable yet eccentric country types, show them this.
