Pub

Newton-Le-Willows

About the restaurant

A resplendent country pub, located right in the heart of Newton-le-Willows. A cracking range of beers, liveners & pick me ups sit behind the bar, coupled with quirky art, curiosities, and plenty of cosy or lively spots to enjoy your pint and put the world to rights. The suntrap terrace at the front ensures the pub atmosphere spills out on to the lively high-street whilst at the rear a splendid secret garden promises to provide a welcome haven.

The food was excellent, and it served as and when wanted. It was really tasty and presented well. Service was very good and with a smile, pub decor was very pleasant and gave a good atmosphere.

Very good venue. Great decor and Cavern club experience. Nice classical British dishes done well. The scouse was great, as was the fish and chips. Service was friendly and professional. However service was slower than we would have liked. Not cheap, but reasonable given the tourist focus of the venue.
