Quick info
About The Edington Arms
The Edington Arms is a pub on Ladies Ln in Wigan, right next to Hindley train station. As a Holts pub, it has Joseph Holt's beer on offer. A pool table and darts are available for games, and Sky sport is shown on the TV, with snooker among the coverage. A quiz night and entertainment nights give the pub a programme of events beyond the bar, which suits groups who want something to do together. Dogs are welcome. The kitchen does not serve meals, only sandwiches, and those are cash only.

Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers come for a pint of Joseph Holt's, praised as good beer and cheap ale, with a couple calling it excellent value like other Holts pubs. The spot beside Hindley train station comes up repeatedly, with visitors dropping in during a train delay and finding a decent pint with snooker on the TV. The beer garden is close behind, described as a sun trap with lovely trees and flowers, and one cyclist on a bike ride was helped by staff to find a safe place for the bikes. Pool, darts and Sky are also mentioned, along with Saturday night entertainment and a quiz night where staff go the extra mile. Reviewers repeatedly call the staff friendly and the pub clean. The one complaint comes from a driver who had dropped off a passenger and was told by the bartender that the toilet was for customers only. Several reviewers say they were waiting for a train when they called in, and some have been back or say they will return next time they are in Hindley.
