Old skool Victoriana-styled JDW. Quite nice if a bit battered and it felt more characterful than the average Spoons, with plenty of distinct areas and cubby holes over a couple of levels. Four guests and my Robbies Tom & Berry was an excellent drop (NBSS 4). I was impressed and I’d certainly pop in again next time, unusually I didn’t eat in here because I was already two pies to the good by this point, this being Wigan and me being a fat git tourist. 7.5

This is an older style Spoons which was busy at the time of my visit at 11:30 on Wednesday, with a mix of people from the tail end of breakfast, those wanting a drink, and those waiting for the lunchtime menu. There are two distinct sections as well as stairs leading up to what looked like a small mezzanine style seating area (not investigated).
At the bar, two banks of six hand pulls, the two banks being duplicated and all were clipped and ready for action. The usual trio featured plus three guests. Not a wild choice of styles with at least two of the guests being bitters or pale ales. Standard Spoons pricing of course with guest ales currently £2.46 a pint. Service was pretty efficient.

this is a pretty decent JDW's actually, fits in well on the main pub circuit through Wigan. a standard affair, no atmosphere at all of course, but loads of cosy nooks and crannies for a quiet pint. The beer choice is okay if unspectacular and the clientele usually a mixture of rough youngsters and harmless pensioners.
