The Black Bull in Wigan

Complete turn around since Jason and Louise took over. Brilliant atmosphere and a variety of fantastic entertainment. Massive beer garden!! Definitely gonna be returning.

Great pub great atmosphere.Jason and .Louise are fantastic can't do enough for you. No 1 place to go in standish for a good night out.

Lovely place! Very friendly & welcoming. Landlord and landlady were lovely too. Will definitely be going back.

The pub is the best it has been for a long time. The landlord and landlady are top quality. Always a fantastic atmosphere no matter what day of the week you go in and always a friendly face to greet you. The artists are always absolutely brilliant and the karaoke always gets the crowd going! 10/10!!

By far the best pub in Standish. Now Louise and Jason have taken over it's back to its former glory.

Lovely atmosphere,lovely staff,so friendly. The pub is so clean and fresh. Always a service with a smile. Lovely people

Lovely atmosphere, very clean and warm and welcoming. Staff are 10/10. Best pub in Standish by far

Very friendly staff. The beer garden is great, dog and child friendly. The whole place is lovely and clean too. Regulars and newbies are all equally welcome

The pub has had a significant revamp , staff are really friendly and welcoming and very much invested in the business . Great feedback from other friends that have been in too . As part of the pool team the landlady, Louise has gone out of her way to show her wishes to keep our pool squad going so this has been really pleasing. This has always been a great pub and I'm sure it will soar to new heights !

Really good atmosphere and excellent staff , such a warm and friendly welcome we had. Will definitely be returning x

Great boozer, cracking staff, always a warm welcome :)

The black bull in Standish is quick.

Since re-opening under new management the Black Bull hotel immediately gives a sense of welcome, it is very clean and tidy inside with a very professional workforce. It has been given the uplift it required.

Wow! What a difference a week makes! The new Landlady and Landlord have really turned the place around and breathed new life into it. The staff are really friendly and warm to everyone who comes in and everything is so clean. Truly the heart of the community. The dog and child friendly beer garden is large enough for the kids to run around and let off some steam whilst the mums can unwind, enjoying a nice crisp glass of wine on a sunny day. There is live music, karaoke, a jukebox, a pool table and the new dart board looks amazing. The Landlady and Landlord have plans of more improvements to come, so watch this space!

I have to be really honest it's the most friendly an welcoming experience iv had in hear for a very long time I'm definitely hoping an wishing them a very long stay .👍

Brilliant people, good atmosphere, very welcoming landlady and landlord, very highly recommended xxx

Fantastic place for a great night out. A wide range of quality drinks and great entertainment at weekends. Excellent service from all the staff. Would highly recommend 👍

Excellent pub . Ellie and Carl can’t do enough for you . Staff are friendly . Great customer service . Can’t wait until they start doing food 😊😊😊. Just had a lovely afternoon tea . Was stunning and cakes were delicious . Can’t wait to try other dishes on the menu .

Awesome Food, great staff and lovely atmosphere too. Thanks for the takeaway. Marley loves his cheese 🧀

Friendly staff and dog friendly

Nice traditional pub good selection of cask ales friendly staff

Went there to donate stuff for Ukraine, the landlord welcomed us and thanked us, he gave up a room of his pub which was three quarters full, if the rest of our country is half what this man is doing its a good lifeline for our friends.

Ellie and Carl are fantastic hosts and always go above and beyond to help their customers. I'd most definitely recommend anyone in Standish or just visiting to call in and sample the fantastic drinks they gave on offer.

Cracking Pub in the Heart of Standish. Weekend live entertainment, quiz night on Tuesday belting laugh. Great atmosphere and very nice staff

Made this place my number 1 every Sunday. Music every weekend, free food every Sunday Very welcoming hosts. Give it a go

Decent enough, sticky tables though lol, give them a clean

Great pub with something for everyone. Quiz nights, kareoke, weekend entertainment or just go for a quiet drink or meet up with friends. We normally visit as a couple or meet up with friends. The landlord and landlady are very welcoming and the pub has a good atmosphere. Right in the centre of Standish.

Quality boozer, tv's always on for the live sports, brilliantly priced drinks, lovely bar staff

A family run pub with fantastic hosts. Quiz nights, karaoke, live acts, meet up with friends or relax with a quiet drink in the centre of Standish, it also has a large beer garden. Me and my husband, and local friends love to visit.

Great bar staff, fantastic management and all together great spot for a beer with friends/family!

One of my favourite pubs in Standish. The best beer garden when the weather is nice.

Really like the landlord and landlady really nice pub always a nice atmosphere and warm welcome 😀

Lovely friendly staff and a nice atmosphere very clean place will definitely go again

I have lived in Standish for 4 years now and visited this pub on many occasions while living here. The management and all the team working here are very friendly and welcoming. The prices for drinks is very reasonable and the karaoke nights are great fun. You can also play 2 games of pool for just £1. Black bull is also dog friendly which is great too.

Lovely pub in the heart of Standish , before covid the Juke box and pool table was an absolute gem , I'm sure after covid it will be too. Has the proper pub feeling inside and also has a large outside beer garden for the summer

Lovely service nice beers and nice surroundings

Poor service lack of experienced staff new manager cant see him lasting long.

Meet up with a few friends and family. Had a great time. Lovely great fast service. Felt very comfortable will call again

Nice pub, great beer garden and friendly staff. I travel from w while away to come and have been several times.

Me and my five girlfriends went to the blackbull last bank holiday Sunday and had a blast, the landlords Ellie and Carl and their staff were brilliant keeping all us rowdy girls served with bottles of Prosecco and shots, prices were spot on some places over charge,atmosphere was great, definitely recommend this little gem, all the best Janine and her tipsey friends 🤪

Can not rate this place highly enough! Lovely welcome from landlord and lady- lovely staff helpful and great service. Lovely and clean. Lovely outdoor area - great for friends, couples and families.

The Black Bull is one of the best pubs in Standish. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and the owners are brilliant. Looking forward to going again.

Lovely beer garden! Ellie & Carl were very welcoming... good choice of gin !! Will definitely be back soon!

I have lived in Standish some years now and never paid much attention to the Blackbull, but with new owners in place and being allowed out after the last lockdown me and my husband thought why not, what a fantastic little pub, beer garden outside is large,clean and tidy, the new owners are brilliant, they make you feel right at home, the bar staff who are doing table service can’t do enough for you and try and serve you has fast as they can considering it’s table services at the moment and it can be busy, we will definitely be back and once they start doing food we will probably be there even more, good work guys, thank you.

First time out in over a year. We were given an extremely warm welcome by owners Karl and Ellie. Made to feel at ease straight away. COVID secure. Drinks are well Priced with a massive range to choose from. Lovely beer garden and warm and welcoming inside. Can’t wait to visit again.

Visited recently and was very happy with what the new owners have done. The beer garden was laid out really well and the owners were very friendly and welcoming. There was a great range of drinks at great prices. Every covid restriction was in place. Will be back again!

Great atmosphere ,Great staff .. great beer 😃 ,Ellie and Carl are brilliant .They have very efficient staff

Great pub in the centre of the village Always thought of it as best pub in Standish and with the new landlord has improved again good bear good atmosphere and good friends it all you need

Fantastic staff and great beer . Ellie and Carl go out their way to help you . Can’t wait until they start doing meals 😊😊😊

With the added pressure of Covid restrictions the staff still gave 100% service with a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Recently under new managment now run by the lovely Ellie and Karl. All staff have been very welcoming since reopening and cant do enough for us while we all sit and drink. The pub is really well organised with the Covid restrictions and making every effort to keep everyone safe and comfortable in a relaxing spacious outdoor enviroment Do yourself a favour and call in and and get a drink

Went for a support visit, place is looking great and clearly getting ready to trade.

Extremely friendly and safe place for the whole family

Nice local, classic horse racing pub.

Me and my friends were drinking in there for 3 hours and just before we left we had a game of pool. The landlord came over and said he hadn’t seen any of us have a drink all night (we’d been on over 3 hours and had about 5 Pints each). He took the white ball away and wouldn’t let us continue. At that point we left and vowed never to come back. If In standish I would advise the lychgate or the potters. Friendlier staff and much cheaper drinks. Avoid at all costs!!!’

Great atmosphere and friendly bar staff. Has live music, all the sports on large screens and every Friday Karaoke. They keep it real with prices and have promotions on different drinks. All in all a great all round local pub!

Good pub with good beer karaoke on Fridays very good.

Called in the pub hardly anyone in the place me and my son went to play pool the fire door to the smoking area was open with a nice breeze coming through. Then the landlord came down all bolshy and slammed the fire door I asked why has he done this and he said fire regulations. I am aware of the procedure and for him to be this way is beyond me I knew before he slammed the door shut. He needs a induction in customer services good style !

Great afternoon.... superb singer.. Great staff happy days

Popped in for a quick drink. It's great there is a smoking area.

Unless you're part of the crowd the tumbleweed will be blowing when you walk in!

Just popped out for a drink. Guinness lovely Deb on Coke.

Very nice traditional pub with friendly atmosphere and good beer highly recommend

Convenient pub with friendly staff & a great range of beers.

Brilliant! We had our car ran into today outside the pub by a very careless driver and the pub was to our rescue. Just to say a big thanks to everyone for being really kind and giving our kids a drink and somewhere warm to sit while we sorted the car out. The staff and customers we're amazing and the pub is lovely and welcoming...they let dogs too in which is great. Will definitely go back for a few drinks soon...don't have to worry about driving now my cars goosed! 😂

Great place good beer friendly atmosphere all in all a great place to be, oh and dog friendly 👍

Reasonably priced ale and nice surroundings but certain improvements needed to get 5 stars.

Great smoking area if your a smoker good beer and polite helpful staff ☺ 10/10
