Papa Luigis Wigan in Wigan

Beautiful setting, very friendly & attentive staff, amazing food!

Unfortunately the service was not up to the standards we have been use too. The gentleman behind the bar was amazing as always. The front of the house was not attentive this time; we could have understood if it was busy, but it seemed specific customers (possibly staff on a night out) took preferential attention. We didn't even get offered a desert after our meal, what ashame.

Outstanding food! Fantastic customer service from all 3 members of staff that we encountered. 5 x 3 course meals, 10 x drinks and 2 x cheesy garlic breads - averaged out at around £30 per person. Massive portion sizes; we were all that full that we boxed up our desserts to take home with us. Really can't recommend here enough - if you've not been, make it a priority visit!

The risotto and penne arabiata were decent in taste with good portion size. However the fudge cake wasn't up to the mark. The ambience and staff were quite good. Thus overall its a good value for money.

Lovely staff, Food always excellent quality, with generous portions. Great value. Special offers on pizza & pasta takeaways.

Fabulous food and fantastic service.

Went tonight with high expectations from recommendations. The beer didn’t taste nice like the pumps needed cleaning. The cheesy garlic bread starter was beautiful and the highlight of the meal however we then waited just under one hour for our mains. My Carbonara Pancetta was a purple colour and the carbonara sauce was very oily and greasy rather than creamy really disappointed so I left majority of the dish and the spaghetti bolognaise was very bland and tasted like Heinz tinned. They realised they forgot about us which they gave us our garlic bread free of charge which was kind but really disappointed overall. The only atmosphere we had was a nice gentleman bringing the drinks. ☹️

Beautiful food, great lively atmosphere. Quick service. Friendly staff. Exceptional value for money. Will one million percent be returning regularly.

Great food and service. Love it here

Great place. Friendly authentic staff. Food well worth more than 5 stars. Will be going again for sure 😊

Very nice Italian restaurant on Wigan lane. Staff are very friendly, decor is nice and bright. The menu has a lot to offer, from meat dishes and fish dishes to traditional pizza and pasta. I had the garlic mushrooms and they are so delicious and cheesy. Pizza's are good too. I also had dessert - sticky toffee pudding, amazing!

My wife has really enjoyed your gluten free pasta, thanks for the option. X

Always have excellent service and lovely food. Great value for money. I would advise to book as always busy when we have been there.

Absolutely excellent. Only went as we were visiting at wigan hospital so booked last minute. Service really good and food amazing.

Monday night is pizza and pasta night for about £5 each, a great deal. It's one of the few places open in Wigan on a Monday, food is nice, good for large parties on a budget, friendly staff and good atmosphere.

The serving staffs were good, although we had to get their attention to clear the table for our next courses, which was not a big issue. Unfortunately, there was a large table of tipsy diners who were laughing and shouting, it was unbearably loud. Although the manager assured us that she will ask the party to keep the noise level down, it didn't made any difference. Worst of all, my toddler's high chair has been kicked multiple times. She's been shunted like she was on a dogem. It was not safe for my toddler and to those diners who kicked the legs of the high chair multiple times. It's a miracle that nobody actually falls as a result. Not impressed as the manager could have given us a free table to avoid the potential pitfall.

Excellent food, and friendly staff. Lovely evening with family.

Nice family meal. Kind staff. Only personal taste, we prefer the euxton papa luigis, the cannelloni is a bit tastier.

Parking a nightmare, my food was lovely but not everyone agreed in our group. Service was very good no waiting around.

Lovely food, great service. Got very loud as there were a couple of parties. Made conversation difficult as one or our group has a hearing aid which doesn't filter background noise. Otherwise great evening, will return

Gamberoni pomodoro... Without tomato sauce... Magic, Perfect, Amazing

Food and atmosphere here is excellent.

Top Class restaurant without the high end prices. Absolutely delicious food, can't fault it and I'm fussy and a traine chef. Full of flavour, great portions. Staff even when restaurant was extremely busy very polite, attentive, service with a huge smile every time. Extremely sparkling clean . Wonderful atmosphere. Can't wait to go back. Definitely reckon booking a table. Grazie xxx

Impromptu meal out with a few friends. Easy to book online for immediate service. Great food as always. Fantastic prices too. Staff always lovely and the decor is beautiful.

Great place for dining. Great food with good service. I would recommend it to anyone

I went here with my boyfriend. Amazing food, I would reccomend an healthy option

Great food, love Italian, never had a bad meal, a bit pricey but worth it id say.

Excellent midweek specials, great value and good service.

Food is great for the price. There is a nice atmosphere as there are divides next to the tables so it offers a bit of privacy. Served quickly

We took advantage of the Monday Pizza/Pasta deal, but also had starters & dessert too. Great value, good service & delicious food. 10/10 😊

Took a last minute booking, handled our allergy issues (nuts) without a problem and had a really nice evening with lovely food.

Review for take away only: on Monday and Tuesday it’s under £6 per person for any pasta dish. They’re still freshly made, and come with a mini portion of fresh Parmesan. Carbonara was pretty good, needed a little more salt. It’s good that somewhere in wigan is open on a Monday at least!

Great meal Great service Great Family gathering

The food was okay. Amazing service and place is pretty

Was ok no problems at all. Just wasn't as good as we were hoping. Think it is more of a cheap n cheerful type of place now. Not as good as it was years ago when I last went. Would I recommend or go back? Nah sorry, maybe in another 20 years, there are far better in the area that I would go to and recommend. Good luck x Ps remind the kitchen staff that customers don't wanna hear all the banging racket when dining sounded like someone was excessively beating the living daylights out of a steak or smashing ice 😆

Good place to go. Service a little on the slow side and the food was OK rather than super dooper.

We have been to papa Luigi’s Euxton previously and is usually great. We ordered a calzone pizza which was tasty but unfortunately when we ordered a chocolate fudge cake for dessert I was greeted with a hair, which was not particularly great. However, the staff dealt with this great, offering another dessert free of charge and lemonchello. Although this happened, I would recommend papa Luigi’s to anyone in the area.

Issuing parking fines now! Not really good for business Edit: £100 fine for 2 minutes parking while I went into the chippy which I’ve done for 10 years! This is how you alienate the local community who are your customers, not very intelligent

Food was average. Not great. The bar staff were lovely, but the waiting staff weren't very attentive. And not much regarding warm atmosphere. 2/10

Brilliant food and service as always, and great value. Love this restaurant.

Absolutely superb evening!! Great, friendly staff, superb service and excellent food. Will definitely return!! 🇮🇹 👍

Staff were lovely. Had Christmas menu. Starters were delicious but mains not so. Beef strips and vegetables was just stew. Chicken stroganoff was frozen chicken strips. Wish I had ordered from main menu. We booked a table for 8pm and wasn't seated until 9.30pm the place was packed and very noisey

Fab restaurant for family meals, celebrations or just for two. Food is delicious.

Family meal for 10. Service was brilliant. Food was outstanding. Can't fault anything. Thankyou for a great night.

This place has not changed in years

Our first visit didn't have the wow effect I expected. It took an age to give our order, yes its a busy place and we had drinks in minutes, but taking the order 40 mins is to long. The food was very good, we had to complain about the garlic bread , so thin it was like toast, way to thin and over cooked. Didn't get a refund. The 6 of us had 3 bottles of wine. We expect more from this very popular place. Sorry not rushing back here

Amazing cheap, food. I go all the time and the servers are really nice!

Excellent food and wonderful staff!

Lovely staff and very tasty food ... definitely recommend

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and great food.

Great food and lovely, friendly staff xx

So I’ve been coming to this restaurant for quite a few years in the past 6 to 8 months the food has not been as good as what it usually is really hope I haven’t change the chef and if so fetch back the old one it was a lot better cook. Disappointing

Food was great but the menu was limited. Same old dishes that you find across Wigan town centre. Please develop some of your own dishes to help you stand out from the crowd.

Very nice would of been better if you could of had a choice of meat for the roast dinner but still very tasty 😋

Wonderful.Best authentic pizza outside Italy.

Delightful restaurant and staff food very good and Tetleys on draft what more could a man want?

If you want quality over quantity then this is the place. Proper handmade Italian thin pizzas that are awesome but around 9-10 inches in diameter. If you're a big eater then get 2, you won't regret it

Well presented fresh meals . Helpful staff. Good value for money. Would recommend.

Great food, good service high recommended, very good prices

BBQ ribs starter with surf & turf meal was excellent! Perfectly cooked! Also the profiteroles was a delicious dessert.

Always a lovely atmosphere with consistent Italian food and not ridiculous prices

This was the only local restaurant to honour its Monday special offer although it was a bank holiday. we chose on that basis alone. But i have to add that it was absolutely fantastic. the food (every single dish) the service and the overall ambiance was excellent. we left with goodie bags because we definitely did not want to waste anything. by far the best italian we have had for a long time. Ben fatto Papa Luigis. Apologies for no pics but we live in the moment.

Our first visit. Booked for 6pm Sunday. On arrival made very welcome and taken to a well presented table by the friendly receptionist. We had two starters, two mains, one ice-cream desert, a large house red and a Guinness, and two coffees. All the food was beautifully presented, hot, tasty and generous. The meals were not rushed, just perfectly timed. What's not to like for £46 all in. Thankyou Papa Luigi's Wigan for a lovely evening.

There was definitely no time for pictures. Even the little one devoured his massive pizza. He said it was the best pizza of his life (he's 7) and wants to go back for his birthday and Halloween 🎃 although not a clue why Halloween but hey ho. Definitely would recommend and we are returning.

I ordered a seafood pizza and a tagliatelle with blue cheese bacon and mushrooms. The seafood pizza was without doubt the best pizza I have ever tasted in my life. Not the best seafood pizza THE best pizza I have ever had. For the price of £13.90 for both dishes I was shocked by the quality and the generosity. The tagliatelle with the dolcelatte cheese could have done with a touch more of the blue cheese and maybe a twist of salt more to bring the flavour out. But many restaurants tend to under season these days so the customer can do it themselves to their own liking. I ate both the pizza and the pasta all to myself, although it was that good I decided to put a bit away for later on because I wanted more of them delicious flavours for my supper. Excellent!!!

Staff were lovely, nice decor. Unfortunately my food was overcooked and tasteless, my chicken was dry and the starter was burnt in places and very bland. The happy birthday song was played for the full length of time and it was far to loud, I had to stop speaking and wait 5 minutes for it to finish as my friend couldn't hear what I was saying. I would go back if they improved the food quality.

Great value, delicious food and good customer service

We go often there as I'm Italian and the food there is the most "Italian" I've found in this area. Lovely staff as well, if you're craving something tasty for cheap go on Monday as they have great deals. Definitely worth going.

Took my daughter for tea and met with few others had early bird menu was really nice, great value for money. All staff were really nice too. Will be going again.

Where do I start... Very accommodating absolutely stunning food and service amazing. Regular customer 🍕👍👊

This restaurant was recommended to me by a local. We were not disappointed. The food was excellent, good portions, and the staff were very efficient and extremely friendly. I would wholeheartedly recommend this eatery.

Excellent food, amazing portions and a great atmosphere and friendly and professional service. Highly recommended with 5 stars from me.

Went here for my daughter's 4th birthday with all the family. They accommodated us with no issues. The restaurant was quite busy the night of the little party but the service was impeccable and the food was absolutely amazing! Delicious, steaming hot even though there was a lot of us to serve, couldn't fault anything. Thank you very much for making my little girls birthday the "best birthday ever!" Quoted from my little one.

Great atmosphere and delicious food

I've just ordered pasta bologneze and they put rosemary in it .REALLY. is the first time in my life I've tested that . Really strange. It should be Italian pasta not something else. Really disappointed 😞 😕

Staff really friendly food was good

Just had a lovely 3 course meal will defo be going again

Staff are amazing, food delicious as ever wouldn't go anywhere else thank you so much ❤️

Great food, great atmosphere and lovely helpful staff.

Wonderful food and fantastic service 10/10

Fab food, fab atmosphere fab staff, thank you guys

Top class food. Wish they delivered

Warm atmosphere, excellent staff and great food. What more can be said?

Under new management, the staff were good but the food was the worse I'd ever had, out of four dishes we could eat just one and that was just slices of cheese and tomato, definitely not be going back there again.

Half price pasta and pizza on Monday.

Excellent 1st class service, delicious food and the specials menu is excellent value.

Employees a bit ignorant food not to my liking but passable . Give us the rong bill then when we told them they were not very apologetic even though the bill was in there favour I will not be going back

Always the same. Simply superb. Very good service from friendly staff, during very busy time. Had a starter that could well have been the main meal. Recommended whole heartily.

Fantastic food and service as always

We went here for a birthday party. The staff and food were both excellent.

Been many times. Always great food. Great service and great atmosphere. Staff are always friendly and welcoming.

Brilliant food, friendly service, just too loud and very walm.

Lovely restaurant. Very welcoming with lovely friendly staff. The food was delicious and filling. If you're looking for lovely tasty Italian cuisine then this restaurant won't disappoint.

Meal was nice, staff very friendly and attentive. Extremely busy which made it difficult to hear people on your own table.

Food 3 manager 3 please pay your staff there tips

Great value for money early bird 3 course special, chicken slightly dry sure this a one of don't let this put you off.
