After a few years of being an Indian Vegetarian Restaurant has reverted back to the Derby Arms. Although the signs outside still suggest that there is an Indian Catering and Takeaway-it is only for those wishing to order for an off site function- the Pub does NOT serve food in the bar. The long bar serves an opened out room and there is a great view of Bolton Town Centre and the moors beyond from the window behind the bar. There is a pool table in an area with a large window to the rear and comfortable seating at the front. Children are welcome up to 7 pm-but not in the bar area! The upstairs accommodation has been turned into eight bedsits which are accessible via a separate entrance. A very old out of date weathered canvas advertising rooms to let covering a stone carving of the Coat of Arms of the Derby Family spoils the outside appearance! There is a small covered outdoor seating area at the rear for those wishing to smoke.
