Reviews in Fylde Coast and Blackpool

As the owner of Dahlia's Just to comment on the review below regarding Breakfast. On A Saturday Morning We have a Deal on our Breakfasts were we Do 2 Full English Breakfasts and as many Free Refills on you Coffee as you want for Just £6.00 we run this from 9am till 11am. we usually serve around 100 breakfasts on a Saturday morning these are all Cooked to order. We need to have a Cut off point for taking orders. As if we do not it would just carry on running. There will still be Breakfasts Being served after 11am as these will be the orders taken upto this cut off point which we usually set at 11.05am. But Unlike the Pub Chain's all our Food is Cooked on Site with the use of Local Produce.

A table for me and my two friends was booked on Wednesday for the forthcoming Friday night at 7.30pm. It was done by phone and i expected all to be in order. When we arrived we were told that no booking had been made and that they were busy but that they could fit us in shortly. After waiting 30 minutes and by this time we were getting annoyed they then turned round to us and said that sorry they were now too busy and we could not fit us in at all! What a shambles, having looked forward to our meal and having booked, they treated us very poorly, kept us waiting and then could not care less that we then had to walk round poulton at 8pm trying to find a restaurant that could fit us in. Very bad service and i would not recommend this restaurant at all.

have been a few times since opened and love it great food

Portofino's Restaurant is the best most consistent restaurant you will find anywhere on the Fylde coast. I have been going there for thirteen years and it is still my favourite for atmosphere and most importantly food. The staff are wonderful too. If only there were more like that around hear. Keep up the good work Orlando

Without a doubt the best sandwich I've ever tasted in Blackpool!! Fresh bread and the salad selection is gorgeous! wouldn't go anywhere else now.. Very friendly staff just taken over by lovely gentleman given it a face lift....Brill food

only been in once and had some of the homemade soup it was fantastic, great value for money, also all other food while i was there (ate in) looked top draw and i will be going back asap, great.

Have eaten at Bosco about a dozen times now and it just gets better and better, superb and authentic pizza and great pasta served in great surroundings by excellent and friendly staff. There are a lot of Italian restaurants in Lytham, but Bosco is leagues ahead of the rest for quality of food, service and value for money.. Excellent..

Had a tasty sandwich at the very busy Royal Oak in Garstang. Great value for money!

Enjoyed 2 evenings at Java. The house beefburger was very good as was the location in the heart of Lytham. The lemon and cream tart rounded things off nicely. A great meeting place.

We have been dining at Gemma for many years now, so this recommendation is long over due! Hand on heart, I can honestly say that we have never once had a bad meal. Icky and his staff serve up fantastic food, at a very reasonable price. Icky is very friendly and takes pleasure in ensuring that his customers are satisfied, he is very generous providing complimentary drinks and regularly surprise us with a free starter.

simply the best fish & chips in blackpool. been there many times on my visits, love it.

I think this is probably the best Italian restaurant on the fylde coast at the moment. The ambience is spot on with mood lighting and chilled tunes and the food that cut above the competition.

been there many times, absolutely the best in fish & chips, a must when i visit Blackpool.

Firstly this place looks great. It's got the vibe of Grill on the Alley in Manchester. Part bar but mainly an American Styled steak house. Spread over 2 floors like Chicory that it replaced. The staff are on the ball, the young GM provided slick front of house management. Also the food we had was very good, 2 contemporary burgers on a wooden platter with potato wedges.We went the other night for a leaving party and Henrys provided plates for a cake one of my staff baked, nice touch! Will be back.

This has to be the best sandwich shop in Blackpool. Hot specials every day (today I had hot roast pork with crispy bacon & apple sauce on a baguette) they make home made soup every day (pea & ham today) and serve Illy coffee! I go nearly every day and have never been disappointed

Salt of the Earth catered for my daughter's 18th, they were wonderful, everything they could possibly do they did. The food surpassed everything I had wished for, all the comments were wonderful from the guests. If you want some quality fresh homemade food, made that day please contact them. They are well worth every penny!!!!!!!!!!! Cannot thank them enough.

If you are looking to enjoy Pulcinella's Tapas menu you should phone and make sure they have the food/dishes available to host such an event before you plan your evening at this venue. My husband and I were really looking forward to going to Pulcinellas to sample their tapas menu which, according to their website, commenced in January 2010 until February 2010. When we arrived we were offered no such menu. When we finally managed to catch someones eye to ask about the offer we were told that due to the bad weather the food had not arrived, then we were told it wouldn't be available on a Friday or Saturday night anyway. Nowhere on the website did it exclude these days. When another manager came over to see us we were then told the dishes for the tapas had not arrived. We were offered some sort of an apology but as we had such a long wait for our food to arrive it was of no consolation to us. The restaurant itself was very busy so we understand it can take some time for fresh food to be prepared but we felt we received no service and it seemed as we were not regular customers then our complaint was not taken seriously. Very disappointed and will not be making another visit.

We visited Saffron this Saturday night as part of a group of 9. We had been previously in a group and thought the meal ok, so had booked again. We had booked in advance, and arrived in plenty of time. 6 of the 9 opted for the 6 people banquet, while the remaining 3 of us chose our own meals; starters and mains. Our food order was taken, however when we went on to order wine, the waiter disappeared mid-order. A different waiter came to our table around 10 minutes later for drinks. We received our starters with no problems, however when the main came the waiter just began to put dishes out without us having any idea of what they were. We explained that one end of the table was having the set menu banquet- and said that the dishes for the banquet would be fine anywhere at that end. He continued to put the dishes where he had started, and when we explained again that some of us had ordered specific dishes, the waiter argued that we had said to just put the dishes anywhere. I was shocked at his tone and how rude he was. The service deteriorated from here and when we left, we left no tip. I will not be visiting Saffron again; as part of a group or with my partner; nor will I be recommending it to anyone. The service really let down an average meal and we left, feeling very disappointed.
