The White Cross
About
The White Cross is a historic canal‑side pub located at Quarry Road in Lancaster, nestled within a refurbished 19th‑century cotton mill that once housed the Storey’s Cotton Mill. The building’s original stone arches and industrial details are preserved, lending the venue a distinct, heritage‑rich atmosphere that guests find both charming and comfortable. The pub’s menu highlights locally sourced ingredients – meats from the Vale of Lune, fresh fish from Fleetwood and vegetables grown in the South Lancashire plains – paired with a rotating selection of up to 20 craft ales. A dedicated kids’ menu is available every day, making it an ideal spot for families and couples alike. The White Cross operates daily from 11:30 am to 11 pm Monday‑Thursday, offers late‑night service until midnight on Friday and Saturday, and remains open for lunch and a full‑day Sunday roast from noon to 11 pm. Regular evening events such as quiz nights and live music enhance the social vibe, while free Wi‑Fi, outdoor seating and wheelchair access support a welcoming experience for all visitors.
