Picture the scene: it’s a balmy summer’s evening and you’re sipping on a cocktail as you watch the sunset over the sea. It might be what you’d expect to be doing while on holiday in Spain or Greece, but in fact it’s exactly what you can do at Crosby beach this spring and summer.
The Bus Yard features a beachside bar housed within a double-decker bus. It initially began as a pop-up on Crosby Promenade but soon became a popular spot among locals and visitors.
It’s now back open for the summer 2024 season having secured a three-year agreement in 2022 with Sefton Council to operate for six months between April and September. With not one but two bank holidays coming up, there’s no better time to visit this beachside bar right on our doorstep.

Andy commented: "It's reached another level, which is great. It's good to see we've created something from nothing. Before on the site there's nothing there and now there's a full venue, a full house.
"The vibe up there is absolutely amazing. People like it; it's like being abroad at home."
