The Goose & Gander

Directions Website

The Goose & Gander You’ll find our dining room serving fantastic country pub dishes, some of which with a modern twist.

We are a traditional country pub with a contemporary British Restaurant in the small hamlet of Little Scotland near Blackrod, situated only a short distance between Haigh country park, Adlington and Horwich. The Goose & Gander has a ‘casual, relaxed yet premium feel’ with informal drinking and dining areas in the bar with a large wood burning stove for those winter nights! We believe that by sourcing the highest quality ingredients, prepared and cooked by award winning chefs, offered at good value prices is the key to a happy customer and a successful establishment!
