The Elephant and Castle is a large town centre pub in the heart of Bolton's main nightlife area. Weekend evenings can be very busy when the pub acts a meeting point for revellers while DJs play tunes old and new. The host of large TV screens are also a magnet for football fans during big games. The pub supports an interesting selection of cask ales which make it worth a visit. There are 5 handpumps with Moorhouse's White Witch and the Wainwrights Amber and Gold. Outdoor seating at the front of the pub is popular. Popworld has a separate entrance for the upstairs nightclub which has no cask ale, but is currently closed.
