please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
| A cosy little pub which never seems very busy these days, which is a pity. Sadly, the only real ale available is the doggedly unexciting Courage Best. Would visit the pub more often but for this, and still preferable to the soulless Crown Hotel down the road. E.L.Wisty - 17 Feb 2013 22:11 |
| Excellent old style pub with good beer. manstein - 8 Apr 2009 16:06 |
| I forgot to add, the pub has been in every edition of the Guide, certainly the only pub in the area that can boast this. Carlurmston - 29 Sep 2008 23:09 |
| As unspoilt as pubs get, this plain white building is on the main road out of town towards Aspull and was built in c.1700. It can hardly have changed since. There are two bars to either side when one enters, both filled with bric-a-brac and traditional photographs of Wigan. The beams are low, giving the place a extremely cosy feel, probably best in winter although I haven't visited then- I look forward to it. and I have found the locals to be unfailingly friendly. The service too is excellent, a proper landlord. The only gripe that some might have is that there is usually only 1 or 2 handpumps in operation at any time-although as the ale is invariably excellent this cannot be seen as too much of a drawback. Unfortunately this gem is just a little too far out of town to be included on a crawl of any sort (or perhaps that's a blessing), but the casual visitor will not be disappointed. As good as it gets in Wigan. Carlurmston - 29 Sep 2008 23:08 |
