The Wheel Restaurant — Restaurant in Wigan

The Wheel restaurant – Wigan & Leigh College is class. This restaurant is the perfect way for any inspiring young people who might be thinking of getting into the catering business. The Wheel is 99% run by the students who train there, from chefs to silver service to bar service, they control most of it except of course with the help of the very experienced staff just to oversee. We went for our Christmas day dinner and it was delicious. These young students did themselves incredible proud. The meal from starters to dessert where cooked to perfection and very well presented. The young students kept coming to our table to see if we were happy and we could tell a few of them seemed nervous but they didn’t need to be, as the very experienced staff were on hand who had done an amazing job with these young students.

Honestly, I can't recommend this place enough, and for the price of £17.95 ( for the evening/dinner menu), we all left completely stuffed. we also had a cup of tea at the end and a...

We had a great evening here. The menu was Great British which included an array of dishes including leek and potato soup, prawn cocktail and scotch egg to start, followed by fish and chips, hotpot, cheese pie and chicken tikka. Dessert of strawberry tart, trifle and sticky toffee pudding completed the meal. At £18.95 for three courses this is such great value...
