The Berkley was the place to be on the recent Monday that I visited with a mix of bingo, Play Your Cards Right and karaoke from late afternoon until close. This was set up on the stage area to the right of the entrance that faces lots of seating across the front of the pub. All these tables were full all afternoon and evening. Beyond the stage an L-shaped bar runs along the right wall and behind is a split level area with sunken seating to the right rear. Televisions are located throughout for showing Sky Sports. The bar supports standard and premium keg and I counted four handpumps that were drawing Moorhouses Blonde Witch and White Witch alongside Robinsons Unicorn and Dizzy Blonde.
This is a large high street pub that looked quite intimidating from the outside with a bouncer on the door and smokers lingering outside at 16:30 on a Monday afternoon. However I thought the atmosphere was great in this busy pub both during my first visit and then again later in the evening. The staff were all polite and there was a friendly atmosphere. I liked it in here.

One of the first pubs you get to from the train stations heading into the town centre. Modern lookin exterior with a traditional, though slightly modern, interior. Open plan with distinct areas to sit. Its not too bad a pub and there are 6 handpulls to tempt you. The beer selection was pretty decent and whether Dunscar had just delivered a shed load as most beers were theirs, I do not know. Fairly busy on this midweek afternoon visit. It did however continue a theme I've noticed a few times in Wigan in that teeth are rather scarce, and not just with the pensioners.

a very decent option in Wigan town centre although it's very similar to all others i've visited in the Amber Taverns group. a massive TV was showing World Cup football and there were a truckload of other screens around the place. four real ales, an Old Rosies and a 'coming soon'. some characters in the bar, it's a bit Spoons-y but in a nice way.
