It's a Monday afternoon at Coopers Town House in Liverpool city centre but already the place is packed.
Customers are imbibing the unique atmosphere along with their drinks, while over by the karaoke machine a young woman is belting out The Climb by Miley Cyrus. And all this squeezed into a space which is not much bigger than most peoples' living rooms.
The traditional exterior of Coopers presents a stark contrast to the modern glass-fronted facade of Clayton Square shopping arcade next door. Many thousands of people a day will pass the small pub in Cases Street and probably wonder what's going on inside, because of the often raucous sounds within.
