The Union Arms in Farnworth

Ah, The Union Arms – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem in Tyldesley. From what I've gathered, the food is where they really shine; think fresh, hearty meals with massive portions that could easily sort you out for the day, all made with local ingredients that give it that authentic feel. The staff are an absolute delight, always up for a chat and making sure everyone feels looked after, which really adds to the cosy, welcoming vibe. It's a great place to pop in for a pint with friends, especially with their solid range of drinks on offer. On the flip side, though, it can get a tad hectic when things are buzzing, leading to waits at the bar or slower service with food orders – nothing major, but it's worth keeping in mind if you're after a quick stop. And don't forget about the parking; it's not the easiest, so you might have to plan ahead. Overall, it's a solid choice for a laid-back evening, and I'd say it's well worth a visit if you're in the area – just go with the flow and you'll have a brilliant time.
