It's okay but can get a bit cramped in there, atmosphere is good and the staff are lovely. My partner was so pleased they had Guinness on tap as well.

Superb 3 course meal. Food was divine and plenty of it. Nice breather between courses and tables cleared quickly each time. Staff worked very hard and chatted and laughed with us. Can't fault anything. At all.

Food wasn't great but it isn't a food pub. As a local straight forward boozer it's great. Good selection of well priced drinks, good service, clean and nicely decorated. Lovely and warm with a local atmosphere. Would have given it 5 stars if we hadn't eaten

Had their firecrackers chicken. Right amount of spicy. Chicken is cooked perfectly and served in massive chunks. Service was on the medium to slow side. Portions are very massive. Overall I'm happy with the food

Secluded, Fantastic, slightly upmarket feeling pub/gastropub. Renovated in recent years. Fantastic value for money. Very cosy, large menu with both typical pub and higher quality food. Big bar, loads of beers and harder stuff. Quick service. Great and friendly staff. Awesome outdoor rear areas with great shady or sunny spots. Smallish private, high quality car park to rear, with narrow entrance. Highly recommended going for lunch during a quiet day when it's not crowded.

Came in today last minute because my usual place was closed (the audacity) First of all when we rang, the lady on the phone was lovely. Then when he got here our waitress was absolutely phenomenal, Amy, she definitely earned her wage and then some (my mothers words).. We love it when people look like they enjoy their job, and actually work rather than procrastinating. Check backs timed perfectly too. The food was a whole other story. Impeccable and we couldn't even eat it all, presented aesthetically too. The whole place has a nice country pub feel. Easy going to be our new regular!

Amazing place. Great home cooked food in a traditional old building. Had the Cumberland ring with mash and peppercorn sauce and my partner had the lasagne. Both were gorgeous. We had the cheesecake and sticky toffee pudding and they were amazing too. £56 for two mains, two desserts and three soft drinks. That’s excellent value in my opinion and will be going back.

Popped in tonight as just passing by on way elsewhere for food but took a chance and very glad we did. Had the Sunday roast beef and it was quite probably best Sunday dinner ever in a rustic old fascinating pub building. Hot roast, amazing creamy mash, succulent tender roast beef and REAL gravy. Thick, hot and tasty. Great Yorkshire too. Amazing old historic building. Thanks for seating us. Staff were lovely too. Thank you. Homemade apple and cinnamon crumble with hot custard was amazing too. Clearly a great chef with pride in their food.

Beautiful venue with stunning atmosphere and views. Menu looks amazing and food was really nice however as a vegan there was very limited options. More vegan options would be great including a vegan dessert option as there was none. But for non vegans this place would be wonderful for all occasions and you'd love the food. Looks especially nice at Christmas there! Please consider accomodating vegans more. Would definitely come back if there was more options!

2nd time we've been, 1st time was good, this time was excellent. Portion sizes are spot on, Staff are polite and friendly. efficient, courteous, and well presented. Food was delicious. Well priced. They're doing a special at the moment, starter and main for £13.95, the couple next to us went for that option. There food looked excellent too. Will definitely visit again. 5 stars..

Went with family for a special occasion. The staff were very friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The food was high quality through and through, very satisfying and served promptly. Calamari starter: flavourful, light, just the right amount of aoila for the amount of food. Good presentation. A wedge of lemon would’ve been preferred to a slice just to make it a little less sticky dressing the calamari with juice. Rare Sirloin: perfectly cooked, crisp onion rings, al dente carrot, fresh greens, well cooked tomato and mushrooms, light and fluffy chips, depth in peppercorn sauce. Good presentation. Sticky Toffee Pudding with Ice Cream: hot and rich pudding a little stodgy when you run out of ice cream and sauce. Ice cream a little grainy, but very complimentary to pudding. Well presented.

After My adult son struggled to get an appointment to see a dentist, he managed to get an emergency appointment at this clinic. The lady he seen with no exaggeration saved my sons life spotting the signs that he was showing sepsis and to take him to A&E where thankfully he received the treatment he needed and is on the mend, on behalf of myself and my family we’d like to say thank you

Visited Standish Dental Practice last night for emergency treatment (22/02/2022). I found the experience to be quite good considering i hate dentists as a whole. The dentist i saw was Mrs Nicolette Wilson and i found her patient skills to be amazing. She did multiple x-rays, did an assessment and gave me my options. I chose to have the problem tooth removed and she explained every step of the way. I must say, when i went light headed with the anaesthetic, Mrs Wilson was patient and made sure i was ok before proceeding. At the point of the tooth being removed, it became problematic - my tooth was putting up a fight and she had to call on another dentist called Matt for assistance before the numbing wore off who was able to take the tooth out. Turned out, my problem tooth had roots that were spread out like they were doing the splits. Once my tooth had been removed, Mrs Wilson told me i would need a further appointment in a couple of weeks once the extraction site had healed and settled down a bit. I can thoroughly say, I would recommend Standish Dental Practice to anyone who needs dental work doing as all staff (Receptionist, Dentists & Other Dental staff) are friendly and professional. Thank you Standish Dental Practice.

It was a pleasure being to the practice today as I felt everyone was kind and caring. Mentioning from the start when the 2 receptionist Heather and Faye who very kindly explained everything. Next I was seen by the dentist Holly and the nurse Chloe. I can't thank them enough for all their care towards me making sure I was happy with everything. Thanks again and don't forget the great impact you have on people and how you can make the difference.

I have always had a fear of visits to the Dentist. However, since being a patient at Standish Dental Practice I can honestly say my fear is diminishing with each visit. The practice is very clean and has a welcoming feel. The staff are professional and also very friendly and helpful. The treatment and advice from Mrs Nicolette Wilson has been excellent. I would highly recommend.

Had a family Christmas Brunch today at the Boars Head. The food was outstanding and presented beautifully. The five of us enjoyed every single course including the lemon sorbet. Three of us had the full Christmas turkey and gammon and two had the steak. Everything was cooked to perfection, the Christmas pudding needed a little more custard for me personally and I was obliged with a second jug. Yummy!! The trio of deserts went down a storm profiteroles, rhubarb crumble and custard, cheesecake all delicious. Outstanding value and the service by the waiting on team was very efficient. Compliments to the chef, and we will be back!! 🎅. Well done everyone!!! 👏👏👏👏

Popped in for lunch today. As usual, Janet, Tony and the team were as welcoming and efficient as always. love the atmosphere in this lovely pub. Ordered the steak and ale pie, and it was delicious. Would recommend that you give it a try, it’s the perfect yummy comfort food. The Boars Head never disappoints and I love visiting. 😃

Head and shoulders above a lot of pubs for service, dog friendliness, cleanliness and food quality. Been twice now with a party of 6 never had a bad meal. This is a lot better than pub grub but without all the pretentiousness. The sirloin cut like butter! We need some pubs like this is the south of Wigan instead of Standish hogging them all haha

Hoping to put this on our shortlist of venues for a special meal /drink for a important event in our lives found it a bit dark and uninviting , waited 35 mins for our meal,beer choice for me wasn't great and my meal was a let down ( partners was good she said) steak and kidney pudding should have soft suet pastry not a rock hard can't get your knife through it shell .. go easy on the microwave warm up chef keep your eye on the timer ..when asked was ' everything OK informed the young lady no and of the problem let's see if it gets back to the kitchen team Will probably again .. as I can see it could be really good

Meal for 4 yesterday, great service, food was good, tomato soup for starter, cheese and onion pie for main. The small portion of veg with the main was undercooked unfortunately but the cheese and onion pie was pretty good. Thought it was quite expensive for pub grub but everyone seemed to enjoy it.

It's a large pub with plenty of dining areas and excellent food. A good stopover (in our case en route from Scotland to London), just off the M6. Plenty of car parking space. Ours was a cosy room with a view over the surrounding fields. No problem charging your phone or anything, I counted 8 x double sockets around the room, including both sides of the bed! A really good shower (apparently they've just installed a heavyweight pump to boost the pressure in the bathrooms). The staff were excellent and we had a great evening in the bar chatting till late with staff and locals. Be warned, they only do breakfast on a Sunday morning. It's a dog-friendly pub, which is great, but not so great when a dog starts barking relentlessly at 0740 on a Sunday.

Went in last night with the family. Can't fault it nice food, the kids loved it. I had chilli con carne and it was decent. My wife had the burger which to be fair was outstanding. My mother in law had some pasta and she was happy. I've not been here since the eat out to help out but I'll certainly be coming back. Thanks very much.

Our daughter’s 25th birthday, we’ve been a couple of times before, thoroughly enjoyed our evening! Mike T was our server, he looked after us really well, so friendly & helpful, a credit to Albert’s. The food was lovely, well cooked & tasty, although the duck spring roll was a little small for a starter, the ham hock terrine was yummy! Fish & chips was ample, as was my daughter’s Moules Frites! One of her favourite dishes, so a happy girl. Desserts were nice to finish off, although I do wish I’d had the profiterole, it looked really nice, my daughter said it was. This is one of the nicest, if not the nicest set menu Albert’s has offered. The atmosphere is fab & such a nice place to sit & chat whilst enjoying the lovely food. Thank you for a lovely evening, we will be back 😊

If I read some of the reviews before visiting, I likely would have hesitated... but our experience was far different than some of the reviewers... I thought it was very good for the price compared to a lot of garden centres. The savouries were good and the cakes were great. The Americano was good too. It wasn't lavish but neither were the prices, I do not know what some reviewers who left 2 and 3 stars are complaining about. If you want luxury, go somewhere luxury and pay luxury prices because this was very reasonably priced and of good standard. We will be returning 🍰☕

Wild Mint absolutely rocks! My daughter and I have been coming here regularly for years now, and we're always happy with the high quality food and the attentive service that Keri and her hard-working team provide. The breakfasts are absolutely delicious, the burgers are top notch and the atmosphere is always happy, relaxed and positive. The Lemon Meringue is my personal fave, it brings a tear to my eye thinking about it! Haha! It's also turned into a vital community hub over the years. There seems to always be something going on, including arts and crafts, wellness sessions, children's activities and social meetings. Long may Wild Mint thrive and continue to serve our wonderful community.
