We’re bringing something fresh and exciting to Wigan while keeping that local pub charm everyone loves. Our new menu features juicy smashed burgers, loaded sharing platters, and indulgent milkshakes, not to mention a full range of classic and creative cocktails – all served alongside our signature ice-cold beers on tap.

But we’re not just about food and drink. We’re building a community. Expect weekly quiz nights, open mic sessions, and live performances from local bands and artists looking to gain experience and exposure. If you're a performer or part of a band, we’d love to hear from you – this is your stage.

As we prepare for the big reopening, we’re also recruiting! If you’ve got the passion and personality to work front of house or skills to shine in our kitchen team, get in touch. We’re building a team that’s friendly, fun, and ready to deliver a great experience to our guests.

The Whitesmiths Arms is coming back better than ever – and this time, we’re bringing something for everyone.

Keep your eyes peeled for the reopening date, follow us on socials for updates, and we’ll see you soon down at the bar!
