Away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, Lytham holds essential ingredients. The Windmill, Lytham Green, Lytham Hall and the River Ribble estuary overlooking the Welsh mountains are all worthy of a postcard. A host of up-market restaurants will tickle your tastebuds.
Zest is just what Lytham and the Fylde needs, namely a funky eatery/bar/cafe. I've often wanted to share a light meal and a bottle of vino with friends and not fancied a pub or restaurant so Zest fits this bill. The food was great and I'd describe it as Meditteranean tapas. Zest brings an touch of metropolitan dining to leafy Lytham!
Zest Food & Wine Bar – LythamNo where gives you a better sense of having a good night out than this cheery yet sophistocated restaurant
Portofino – LythamThis isn't a restaurant; it's a (basic) pub. They do some food at lunchtime which, really, is very good. But it's a real ale pub, nice through the day, but which attracts, rugby types on a Friday & Saturday night.
The Taps – LythamEnjoy the meals we have at Portofino both upstairs and downstairs. Very upmarket above and good value below. Cheery efficient staff and a real night out.
Portofino – LythamThis was my second visit to Lytham's new indian restaurant, and it certainly won't be my last. The place looks good, the service was very attentive, as you now expect from Indian waiters, and the food was delicious. I had chicken Jalfrezi which was done just right, not too sloppy, not too dry. The place is going to do very well and is long overdue on the Lytham dining scene.
Red Fort – LythamIf you want the best fish and chips in the country, then come and pay for them here. Steve N-w-S
Whelans – LythamOur party of four each thoroughly enjoyed their dishes which were up to the usual standard. Staff very attentive and friendly.
Portofino – LythamI enjoyed the food. The place was busy with plenty of atmosphere, all in all a great night out.
Portofino – LythamAgain I had a great night at Porto's. A couple of drinks at the bar, upstairs to the posh part for a slap up, then back to the bar to drown my tonsiles, marvellous!!
Portofino – LythamDoner Kebabs have a reputation of only being edible when you are "over your legal limit", not so with Ahmet. I've been eating his kebabs for years now, drunk and sober, nobody compares!. Thanks for moving down to Lytham when you did.
Ahmet Turkish Kebab House – LythamRick Stein was definitely not wrong about this place. We've become weekly regulars ! The haddock is really fresh, and the chips are always done to perfection. The seasonal events (mulled wine, etc) are also a lovely gesture.
Whelans – LythamThe best chippy on the fylde,eat in or take-away!
Whelans – LythamGreat restaurant, very good service, food very good value, but be careful as drinks are expensive.
