The White Crow
About
The White Crow is a historic free house situated on the A5106 between Wigan and Chorley, on the border of Lancashire and Greater Manchester. The building dates back to the 16th‑century and has been wonderfully restored, preserving its original coaching‑inn charm while offering modern comforts such as roaring fires, free‑standing bars and a spacious dining area. Guests are greeted with a warm, family‑friendly atmosphere that has earned the pub a Healthy Business Award from Wigan Borough Council and a breast‑feeding friendly award. The menu showcases hearty, locally sourced dishes and real ales from a wide range of micro‑breweries, making it a favourite for both locals and visitors. Beyond food and drink, the White Crow serves as a community hub: it hosts regular quiz nights, supports local charities, and offers special arrangements for meetings, weddings, and funerals. During the festive season a special Christmas fayre welcomes guests with home‑cooked turkey and festive drinks. Whether you’re looking for a relaxed family evening, a weekend gathering, or a venue for a community event, The White Crow provides a relaxed, welcoming setting with comfortable seating, a well‑designed outdoor area, and ample parking.
