    Fantastic micro-pub with a superb beer selection. Usually full of friendly people and lots of dogs who all need to be made a fuss of!! Best pub by miles in Westhoughton, well done to Rachel and her staff.

    We’ve only been here about 4 times but must try to go more often as it’s a lovely place. The staff are so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The beer garden is a great place to sit and chat and our dog is made to feel as welcome as we are.

    We visit this pub on a regular basis whilst out walking our dog millie because it is so dog friendly, the staff are great, the owner is such a dog lover, treats in full flow, my dog loves the atmosphere and the beer garden. And of course not forgetting the great choice of beer and Gin.
