The Woodlands in St. Helens

Nice clean bar with decent selection of beers . Caters for all.

Nice decor, friendly staff, great to watch live sports loads of TV and various seating benches, stools, chairs and back rests.

Went to a fun day that was sadly cancled. Seems a nice little pub

For a pub that uses Sports Bar as its main draw to customers they don't seem to understand how to create the right atmosphere. The landlady always has the volume turned down on the speakers so you can hardly hear the commentary!

Played here for our local pool pub team, nice staff and very modern venue 👍

Only had one but very nice

No atmosphere, don't charge as much they would get more in

If I could give half a star I would.Arrived yesterday for the England game and tried to order through the App which was down (no fault of the staff working).I went in and asked about this and was told to try again and if not someone would be out.I then waited over an hour for someone to come over and was told on a number of occasions to wait despite there being 3 other tables before us get served a number of times.When the App did come back I ordered a small bowl of chips and waited over 1 hour. I went inside to mention this to someone and was met by a rude manager who was rolling her eyes and when I mentioned one of her staff had been rude to us, she said that it "hard to believe, but she'll have a word".I understand COVID slows everything down, but I have never been anywhere and received such shocking customer service from both staff and management.Save your money and go elsewhere.

This recently refurbished pub has been given a new lease of life by the new management team, Diane and Mick. Food is now being served and a 9am opening at weekends for breakfast. Quality cask ales are now available including locales. The beer garden has been improved and French windows installed that look out over it, I believe these will be opened up during the summer months to give a nice airy drinking and eating experience. Families are very welcome and the atmosphere is very ambient during the day and early evening then the pub comes to life, bustling with punters watching the live entertainment. This establishment is very sport orientated, showing all the live football and rugby league games amongst other sports. All in all this pub provides a top drinking experience and I would recommend it to anybody. The pricing is very competitive for such a grand pub. Enjoy

Back to being a community pub, serving good food, and at last real ales. Diane and Mick who are the new managers have brought a good atmosphere back. Staff are friendly and attentive, full table service
