Had a lovely meal at the Stanley Gate, food was delicious and we had brilliant service from our waitress June.

Close to Ormskirk and Skelmersdale, our country pub's little more than ten miles from Liverpool city centre and conveniently located for Junction 3 of the M58 motorway. Surrounded by beautiful countryside and with a lovely beer garden ideal for a couple of local cask ales on a sunny day, we serve traditional pub food that caters for the whole family. Including a pub Sunday roast, breakfast and a host of seasonal specials.
