Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Moon Under Water (JD Wetherspoon)
Quite a decent conversion, with wood panelling on the higher parts of the walls and plenty of local history photographs and displays. The main seating / dining area is separated from the bar by a couple of steps and there are other partitions to break up the space. Usually has a reasonable selection of real ales from the two banks of six handpumps, but despite there being many duplicates on this coronavirus-era visit there, my Naylor's Mosaic proved a decent consolatory pint.

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.

Aqualung . left this review about The Moon Under Water (JD Wetherspoon)
This is a fairly standard town centre Spoons that seemed to be a bit shell-shocked on my early Thursday evening visit. The cluttered tables
were soon being cleared after my arrival.
It's a large split level room with the bar at the far side after entering and the usual assortment of Spoons fixtures and fittings.
The bar has two sets of six hand pumps but with the usual suspects and some festival beers from a few weeks ago this left a choice between Beartown Ruby Bear, Moorhouse's Pendle Porter and Redwillow Peerless, a reasonable selection of Locale ales. This was the first time I had seen a Redwillow beer in a Spoons so I went for the Peerless (£2.20) which was in excellent condition. Despite being somewhat chaotic on my arrival I thought this was a decent Spoons.
