Reviews in Wigan

I would just like to express my disappointment with my visit to Haigh Hall today. I have a labrador and the cafe was unable to provide a bowl of any kind for me to put water in for my dog to have a drink on such a hot day! Staff were very apologetic and explained that this was the rules. They said it was due to littering?? I do not understand why a dog bowl filled with water can not be put outside? How is this littering? I had to resort to a man giving me the lid to his chips and me walking through the cafe and filling it up in a sink outside! Every place I have visited like this have just had a bowl of water outside, why is it such a problem at haigh hall? Very disappointed and embarrassed about the situation I had to go through!!! I hope this issue will be looked at and resolved, especially when this is a place where dogs are walked day in day out. Please could someone respond to my complaint and give me an explanation or a resolution. Thank you

Excellent never had a bad meal, and staff are very friendly and £20 special deal is excellent value never finished it yet.

Oh my god!!! Fire roaring amazing food, drink, peoplel so nice and great humour, all home made foods, if you ask how things are cooked they know when and where all meats and game came from, how its cooked,even a heater outside for any smokers. Never an attitude if you want to mess with the menu, just go go go!!!!! Best pub I've been in for years!!

generally cheap and cheerful but all the drinks are an absolute rip off. I was charged £1.90 for a glass or orange cordial. One visit I mentioned to the manager the party of ants marching across our table and around the window area. We were told there were no ants (and therefore called liars). Upon asking other members of staff they all said the manager was an idiot and they didn't like him. Not the greatest set up but generally the staff are really friendly and the food is good value.

We heard great reviews but were sorely disappointed, sticky tables, badly needs a refurb, dirty menus, below average food and no atmosphere. We only went once and it was quiet but I assume we picked a bad time and were unlucky as I have heard some good reviews from friends

cheap cheerful, pleasant environment (when not full of screaming kids). Excellent value for money, although drinks are expensive - almost as much as a meal.

I've only eaten here once with a friend since it was taken over from Le Frog. I loved it - great atmosphere, v accommodating staff, the food was spectacular, I would definitely go back (shame there's no real parking or I'd go more often)

we didn't actually eat. My partner and I called in at lunchtime, no one greeted us, we waited at the bar for 10 minutes, in that time no one came to serve us but eight children in various states of undress ran through the bar in that time. We eventually got a drink but it took so long and the staff really couldn't be bothered with us we never ended up getting any food. Place was crawling with kids and the owners/ staff clearly were utilising the entire place and a large sitting room for themselves, we were treated pretty badly! Shame as I'd heard the food was ok.

nice atmosphere, olde world little pub, vast menu with loads of specials. Have eaten here 4 times both lunch and dinner, food has generally been ok, meat is always a bit fatty which I hate, even when ordering strips of fillet in sauce which is hugely disappointing and has prevented me eating there any more.

I have eaten here around 20 times over the years, never again, each time was a worse and worse experience! The service is a disgrace, the manager is the rudest little man I've ever met, steaks have several times been inedible. You are also forced to order food as soon as you walk in - before being shown to your table (ie from the bar area) which I find uncomfortable. Several of our friends have said they no longer eat here due to the terrible food and terrible service, presumably it has changed ownership at some point over the years

good food, decent service, shame about the location and no parking but I've eaten there many times with different friends and always come out happy and stuffed :-)

I've eaten here many times over the years and the place has continually spiralled downhill since Simon Jones took over, the staff are rude, stroppy and some are agressive, if you leave messages no one gets back to you, they have kids waitressing and the waitresses also admin the facebook

food is cheap but generally microwaved until it is inedible, even the staff confess they don't eat the rubbish they serve. The kitchens don't even have ovens or hobs, just microwaves and a hotplate for steak.

My family and I came to Ashfield on News Years Eve to the family buffet. Firstly we were disappointed that the menu did not cater for children especially not having any ice cream as all children like. Secondly we have been informed that you were advertising on the web site half price for that evening we were very upset to hear this especially as we had spent a lot of money that night. Also I had been three times in December.

I have just discovered the delights of sherringtons in Atherton, having just moved to the area in the last year or so,. I called in for a coffee to shelter from the rain . Looking a the food on on offer i decided to have some lunch, Panini was delicous and freshly prepared , victoria sponge with cream , a large portion and equally as delicious. Followed by a latte with a hint of mint again lovely. The place is very clean and the service fantastic . My partner and i are now regular visitors and what a delight this little place is i would highly recommend it you wont be disappointed.

Unfortunately I was unable to sample their food as they do not allow dogs in the pub. I accept that this is entirely their choice and I do not take exception to that. What I did object to was the manner of refusal, and the statement that allowing dogs into a pub was against the law. I accept that dogs are not always wanted in a restaurant but we would have been happy to dine in the bar area. As our dog is only a shih tzu she would hardly have been noticed, and because of their attitude they lost the chance to cater to a party of eight and so we all went to the Ship Inn a Lathom and had a lovely meal.

Please can you give me the web address for your Thai retaurant. Am getting rave reviews about it. Want to have a look at the menu please.

went today for a change and because we had rememberd it was quite a good pub, we went in and initially liked the greeting and we were told there was a specials board. i glanced at it and although had initially gone for a sandwich decided to try the lancashire hotpot which i often enjoy living in lancashire. it was priced at 9pounds and i thought it must be good at that price:) what arrived was a dismal slop with a crust on top and i instantly regreted my order. thinking it may taste better i lifted the crust off and discoverd a layer or mince beef and what looked like the left over potatoes from yesterday. As a lancashire hotpot is made with lamb i looked at the board and noitced a mince meat and potato pie so i assumed i had been given the wrong order. The waitress informed me that that was not the case and the chef had just made it with beef. i said that means it isnt a lancashire hotpot, she said she would correct the menu board and walked off. I explained to her that i had ordered a lancashire hotpot and expected to receive that. I had to ask for a change of meal which she was reluctant to do and i decided on the piripiri chicken on a bun. she told me that it may be very spicy in a sarcastic manner and that pirpiri chicken means different things at different places. I said i knew what piripiri chicken was and she slopped off. What arrived as my replacement meal was as bad as the first. A frozen style chicken breat that you may get from tesco, heated up and sat on a bun..this was 7pounds. The experirnce was dreadful, i went in a good mood and left deflated, ripped off and although i dont usually write reviews was compelled to do so.
