Quarry was established in January 2020 in "response to a lack of musical diversity rising in Liverpool's music events after the closure of vital grassroots venues and clubs since 2010,"^[5] including The Kazimier, MeloMelo, and Drop the Dumbulls.^[6] It has since become a well-regarded fixture in Liverpool's music scene^[6][7][8] and was named by Rough Trade as one of the best grassroots music venues in the United Kingdom.^[9] In 2023, noting the fragile position of such spaces, The Quietus described Quarry as providing "a haven for the unusual."^[10]

The original Northern Docks site at 17 Love Lane closed in May 2025 following redevelopment of the surrounding area.^[5][2][11] Artists who performed there include Alison Cotton (ex-Saloon, ex-British Air Powers), Andrey Kiritchenko [uk], APAtT, Big Joanie, Crywank, Forest Swords, God Colony, Hooton Tennis Club, Il Sogno del Marinaio, Islet, Kiran Leonard, Moscow Death Brigade, My Life Story, Kučka, Margaritas Podridas [es], R.A.P.
