Great little pub with a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Good selection of craft ales and lagers. Does need a little tidy up inside as a bit dated but, some could argue it's part of the character.

Been here many times over the years, if you want to stay at the Dorchester then this is not it, and neither does it try to be, if you are looking for a good cosy pub with overnight stay in perfectly fine rooms at fantastic prices, great pub food with friendly staff and clientele, then you can't go wrong. These kind of places need to be enjoyed and supported, a hidden gem that keeps the traditional English pub alive and well, will definitely be returning

Llamé en el Alexandra mientras estaba trabajando en la zona, ya que me di cuenta de que era una casa. La bienvenida de la casera era cálido y amable, y la selección de cervezas mano sofá era buena. Tenía una pinta estupenda de Wainwright. El pub no sería del agrado de todo el mundo, sin embargo, disfruté de mi estancia.

My family and I live quite locally in Hindley Green (wigan) we have visited this pub/restaurant on a number of occasions, and are always greeted with the same warm friendly welcome. Quite an old fashioned looking place, but the food is fabulous ! Great specials board and prices are very reasonable. The chef is accommodating, changing various meals options for us. and the portions sizes are massive ! never cleaned my plate yet. my favorite is their home made chips and onion rings, wide choice of meals, also cater for children, free car park. well worth a visit .....especially that 'specials' board. firm favorite with my family x

Called in here for a drink, wont go again. Dated and dirty. Manager sits drinking with friends and it seems to be his own gathering.. Not made very welcome. Feet stick to tacky carpet and you need to check the seat before sitting down in decent clothes

Food not too bad and close to home. A very varied menu and seems popular. Hubby and daughter had a burger which was not very good, seemed on the cheap side and the chips were soggy. I had chicken skewers with rice and salad which was good

We were due to stay at the Alexandra for two nights but actually only managed the one night. The room we stayed in was grim - there was a wet patch next to the bed which resulted in the room having a damp feel. The bed covers didn't seem clean, the mugs had coffee stains and bathroom was very mouldy. All in all not a pleasant experience. I know that you get what you pay for, but we have stayed in nicer hostels and have had better facilities on campsites for the same price than we paid at the Alexandra.

The Alexandra is not one of the biggest pubs around, but what it lacks in size, it more than makes up for with quality and choice. Lovely food and a fine selection of beers and lagers. What more could you ask for ???? The home made steak pie is as good as you will find anywhere, and the beer battered cod just melts in your mouth. I would recomend The Alex to anyone looking for good "Pub Grub". You will not be disappointed.

The Alexandra is located off the beaten track in Hindley Green just on the border with Westhoughton. Used to eat here years ago when the place was thriving but not been for many a year! After driving past and seeing the sign outside "Good Food Served Here" we decided to call in and see if we agreed! We did.. I had "Alexandra Beer Battered Fish and Chips" and my wife had a Sunday Roast with Beef (also offered Chicken). The fish and chips were better than any I have tasted before and my wife, unusually for her, sent back a very clean plate then devoured a Sticky Toffee Pudding after which she described just as "Excellent". Plenty lagers and good quality wine to choose from, great atmosphere, friendly staff and a real country pub feel about the place. We have also recommended some friends of ours try the B&B when visiting next month. Needless to say - We'll be back! Well done Alexandra Hotel..

My wife and i popped in on a lunchtime after spotting the sign saying good home cooked food. And it was just that,good menu of traditional pub food done great steak,fish,mixed grill etc,the food was cooked great with the best homemade chunky chips i have ever had.

Food here used to be the best, however, recently they have started to use boxed findus type fish not the fresh battered they used to cook. Customers used to queue outside but not anymore. In my opinion, quality has gone down and the price has gone up. Try another chippy.☹️

If I could give this zero stars I would! Tried ringing for 6 weeks to book this as my wedding venue with no luck at all, left voicemail after voicemail that was ignored. Eventually had to drive there to be given the lady's number who takes care of the wedding receptions for her to let me know she will ring me back in two days. They have now lost my business because if this woman cannot even pick up the phone how can I trust her with catering and planning my wedding reception. A massive shame for the actual venue because its a lovely place and that's why I had my heart set on it so now in search for another due to such poor communication and professionalism from Samantha!
