The Best Restaurants in Wigan, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom (2025)

We visited last Sunday on the way through to an overnight stay 30 minutes away from the restaurant, it was a must for us as we had seen some amazing reviews online for this place. With the restaurant sadly 3.5 hours from home we knew we had to try it and we were not disappointed!! My roast was nothing short of amazing, I added cauliflower cheese and WOW. The dessert was incredible, staff even kindly put a candle in it for my birthday. The roast was the nicest, tastiest roast I’ve ever had including the Cauliflower cheese. Everything was faultless, it had so much flavour and value for money on the Sunday lunch menu is brilliant. If we’re ever out this way again then we will absolutely be visiting again in a heart beat. The only thing which was disappointing is the fact you’re so far away from home.

Never had a bad meal here. Service is always great, and the food is amazing. Great variety of dishes to please everyone on the Sunday menu and an excellent price. We will be back 😎

This is my first time visiting this beautiful place.it was a surprise 50th meal for my partner from his kids.absolutely amazing.we had the Xmas menu meal which was absolutely perfect in every way. The place was packed as it's Xmas celebration time but I must say the staff are so friendly and polite. They kept smiling despite how busy it became.will definitely be back just to try the normal menu . Would highly recommend this place to everyone.the chefs did an amazing job with the food .they even changed A meal for us as one of our party has food issues(autistic). absolutely outstanding and worth every penny.well done guys.

We visited the restaurant for steak lunch on Friday afternoon. We were very satisfied with the quality of meat and the staff service. Very pleasant indeed. We are a returning customer and will be for a long time. The restaurant is absolutely a gem in Hindley ❣️

I had the beef chilli tacos, and wow, the portion was huge! The tacos had melted cheese, beef chilli, radishes and pink onions, all three were full of filling. There was nicely flavoured rice on the side too, and a side salad. The soured cream dip was nice too, coming from someone who doesn't like soured cream! It was only £13.75; great value for money. Service was fast and staff were polite. Good atmosphere too: every table got a sombrero!

Amazing service and perfect food. We love our every visit in La Sentidos Loca. Never felt disappointed. Today we have visited La Iguanas and all I must say.. Sentidos Loca is definitely our favourite!

Absolutely amazing food, went here on a whim after typing tacos near me on google. Did not disappoint, large portions and tastes amazing. If you like spicy food I suggest taking some hot sauce or asking for some as food is mild, but tastes amazing.

First time at La Sentidos Loca, and definitely won’t be the last, had amazing service as soon as we stepped through the door, sharing nachos to start with Cluck and Moo burger and Slow cooked beef tacos, all fantastically presented and delicious. Food is well priced with a good prices drinks menu . Absolutely worth a visit

Fabulous food… best food around. Staff are so friendly and polite. Will definitely return…

Fabulous food at the wheel restaurant 😋 I went with my mum and sister and had a great meal. It was a shame that there weren't many tables in dining, as these young students need the experience of a full restaurant. They are open Tuesday and Thursday for lunch at 12,12:15,12:30, and the same days but for the evening at 6 pm, 6:15,6:30. We arranged a table on the day so they do take in last min bookings and the drinks prices are excellent 👌 Highly recommend the fish n chips 😋 the fish was the best fish n chips I've ever had, the batter was lovely and light, and the home-made tarter sauce was excellent only thing missing was some mushy peas but the veg that we had to share between us was excellent and could have fed another 4 people, we had carrots, new potatoes, green beans with a ragu sauce and another portion of chips. Honestly, I can't recommend this place enough, and for the price of £17.95 ( for the evening/dinner menu), we all left completely stuffed. we also had a cup of tea at the end and a homemade biscuit 😋

This restaurant is a really lovely great fabulous place to eat. The staff atmosphere are amazing 👏

We’re sat here now having Christmas dinner. Couldn’t fault a thing. Excellent service, the students are a credit to the college. All 6 of us had a variety of starters, mains and desserts. All perfect and fantastic value for money.

Juniper is a great little find - the food is excellent with a small but well balanced menu for all tastes. We ate lunch here and the food is very good value, 2 courses on the midweek lunch menu for £22. The food was tasty and beautifully presented. The venue is a lovely restored stone cottage with clean, contemporary decor, and an easy journey from M6 Jnct 27. Our waitress was professional and friendly, and managed all the covers in the front of the restaurant without fuss. Will definitely return.

Amazing food! And lovely service 😊 can't wait to come back again.

We visited Juniper in December for a family meal. Their catering was excellent for our large party of 16. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff were pleasant and attentive and all of our requirements were met. The restaurant has a special, elegant dining feel which made for a memorable occasion. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Juniper and look forward to visiting again soon. Thank you!

Wow! What a find! A local restaurant that is so good I want to keep it a secret - but also want our local business to succeed. The chefs are great, the food is equally delicious. The menu is sensible and very well priced. The 3 course lunch is a bargain. Danni, our host/server/waitress was exceptionally good. We have been twice in just 3 weeks. It is that good.

Lovely food, great service - just a bit cold in the restaurant.

Good bar. Friendly helpful staff. Great beer. Lovely decor. Good range of drinks.

Was there last Friday for my wife's birthday 🎂 loved the pulled pork with loaded fryes will be comeing again try the pulled chicken 🐔 next time service was good freindly staff 10 out of 10

Great atmosphere. Food was brilliant. Good selection of drinks

Best tacos I've had filled with beef and peppers and mushrooms and the shells remained crunchy the whole time instead of going soggy. Really good portion size as I was left stuffed. The staff were lovely and our drinks and food arrived pretty fast at the table considering it was 9 people.

Great atmosphere for my guys 40th on Saturday

Excellent quality food. Starters and wine are a bit expensive, desserts are good value. It was quite noisy but the restaurant was full, so that's always a good sign.

Absolutely incredible food and service. I am a bit of pain and asked for something potentially awkward, the chef came out to speak to me and went above and beyond. The food was delicious. Never had that kind of experience before. Thoroughly recommend.

The Red Door Bistro – Wigan’s Best-Kept Secret Tucked away behind an unassuming red door in Wigan, this little gem is easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted by a warm and intimate atmosphere. The dim lighting created the perfect cosy setting, making it feel like a special hidden retreat away from the hustle and bustle. The service was nothing short of exceptional even tho there was 8 of us for a anniversary. The staff were incredibly attentive, ensuring that every detail of our meal was just right without ever feeling intrusive. Their knowledge of the menu and recommendations were spot on, adding a personal touch that made the evening even more enjoyable. Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely incredible. Each dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavour, clearly crafted with passion and skill. Every bite was a delight, from the starters to the desserts, with fresh, high-quality ingredients shining through. What truly set the experience apart was the personal touch from the head chef, who came out to speak with us. Hearing about the inspiration behind the menu and the love that goes into every dish made the meal even more memorable. It’s rare to find that level of dedication and connection in a restaurant, and it’s something that will keep me coming back. If you’re looking for an intimate, high-quality dining experience in Wigan, The Red Door Bistro is a must-visit. It may be hidden, but once you find it, you’ll never forget it.

Me and my family very enjoyed our experience at this restaurant. The food served was perfect, and atmosphere was very cosy, however only thing noticed was the temperature was slightly cold. overall, the service, food and atmosphere was amazing. Thank you!

Fantastic food and the chef coming out to ask about the experience and chat was a very good touch. Can't wait to go back. Best meal out in the last couple of years.

Absolutely incredible from the moment you walk in you feel comfortable the decor is lovely the staff are more than welcoming the presntation is just 10 star 🌟 oh and the food well let me start by saying get your coat on and go see for yourself!! It's remarkable 👏 🙌

Less than a mile from Junction 27 of the M6. Extensive menu including specials. Cask ales pouring today were on the traditional side from Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company. Huge outdoor seating area - much undercover with heaters and blankets if necessary.

Great meal for 4 here today. Hadn't booked and the pub was busy at 1pm on a Saturday. Never the less helpful staff found us a suitable table as we were with our dog. Lovely service. Great food. Nice menu. Could not fault. Will be back for sure ☺️

Just stopped here for lunch whilst on a long drive up north as it had great reviews and just off the M6. Save your money at the services and come here instead! Not only will you be helping a local business but you won't be disappointed! Food was great value and really tasty and fresh. The staff were super helpful and attentive. Dog friendly and even has a dog menu!

Upon our arrival, we were initially uncertain about the establishment. Yet, the moment we entered, we were welcomed by a delightful host and an enchanting ambiance. The venue captivated us with its beauty, and the staff’s exceptional service was truly remarkable. The extensive menu offered a diverse selection of culinary delights. From the beverages to the appetizers, and all the way through to our entrees and desserts, each dish was exquisitely tantalizing! I wholeheartedly endorse this dining experience.

Had a great meal here with family. Fairly large table and we were well looked after. Food was decent quality and a really fair price. Will definitely be back soon

Sunday roast dinner was amazing, so tasty. Plenty of drinks to choose. Good cocktails promotion on Tuesday to Thursday at 5 pm till 8 pm. Clean toilets. Nice atmosphere.

Great experience as always, brilliant food and the staff are brilliant especially Jack who had incredible customer service and I cannot complement enough!

I came today with my partner and we both got the Full English breakfasts and one of us got a normal tea and the other got an Earl Grey tea. The food was excellent and so was the quality and there was no grease on the plate at all which I have been told is a good sign. The food also tasted fantastic and was really high quality. Also the attendants were friendly, helpful and always around if you needed them.

Well... What an amazing place. Food was outstanding, service was great and overall a really good experience. Can't fault this place. Defo returning back. Value for money 👍. The most photos I've ever taken of food and gutted I couldn't fit in dessert.
