Pub Food In The Fylde
What is a pub? This used to be a simple question with a simple answer - a place where you went for a drink - and maybe a smoke. Some of them served food, some of them had rooms -- but they were all pubs. In 1991, the waters began to muddy when the term 'gastropub' was first coine...Read This Article
The Hastings
Still in his early thirties, Warrick Dodds has already enjoyed the kind of culinary career that many young chefs can only dream of. He's worked with Heston Blumenthal, cooked at the famed Walnut Tree in Abergavenny and at the three-Michelin-starred Chez Nico in London. Named Amer...Read This Article
Locanda Bragagnini
The Fylde Coast has no shortage of Italian restaurants. You could dine at a different Italian every night for a month and still have more than a few left to go at. So any new venue thinking of opening up in the area has to keep in mind that it’s entering an already saturate...Read This Article
Exploring The Food Chain
Ever since Mr McDonald first got himself into the burger business, restaurant chains have become a fixture of the dining scene. And it's easy to be critical of a dining phenomenon that's never going to be able to compete with the individuality and quirkiness of your favourite bis...Read This Article
Septembers
If you're a top chef with a culinary pedigree that takes in The Clifton Arms, Northcote Manor, Greens Bistro, London, the Chester Grosvenor, Bermuda, Australia, Thailand and Dubai, where do you go next? Answer: Blackpool. Neil Sedgwick has returned to his Fylde roots to set up a ...Read This Article
In The Know Where To Go
Whether it's a great wine list, a fantastic view or a private dining room, sometimes you just need to know where to go to get it. So after five years covering the Blackpool & Fylde dining scene, we decided it was high time we put our collective heads together to come up with some...Read This Article

The Michelin Red Guide, published in January every year, is the undisputed daddy of the restaurant guidebooks. It's been around longest, it's put together through a rigorous series of inspector visits, it's the guide that's most respected by the restaurant industry itself, and it...Read This Article
The Bistro Experience
How do you define a bistro? The short answer - with difficulty. Originally a French term, it's cemented itself into English usage as a way of describing a certain type of restaurant - generally one that's fairly small, modestly priced and informal. Forget stuffy fine dining, spec...Read This Article
What's New For Fylde Diners
There are two kinds of people who eat out - those that like to try out new places and those that rarely stray from tried and trusted favourites. This feature is unashamedly aimed at the former as we take a look at what's happening on the Fylde dining scene - new openings, recent ...Read This Article
Chicory
Since it opened its doors for business on Lytham's fashionable Henry Street on Good Friday 2002, Chicory has firmly established itself as one of the Fylde's classiest restaurants. It's one of just five local eateries to be awarded an AA rosette and one of only two with both a Goo...Read This Article
Dining With The Stars
For the dedicated foodie, the Michelin guide is the last word when it comes to quality dining. We might not take the annual release of the new Michelin listings quite as seriously as the French - where it can quite literally be a life-and-death affair for restaurateurs - but it d...Read This Article
Gurkha Buffet
Blackpool's Waterloo Road is frankly not somewhere you would associate with a decent meal out. It's where the M55 deposits its hordes of daytrippers and holidaymakers, who swing a left and happily head for the delights of Promenade and Pleasure Beach. But just 100 yards or so to ...Read This Article
Where To Have A Party
Unlike the situation with, say, Korean restaurants or Michelin-starred dining rooms, the Fylde suffers no shortage of places to go for a party - be it birthday, christening or just a get-together with a group of friends. In the off-season in particular, the area's hotels welcome ...Read This Article
Fylde Rugby Club
Sports venues and good food don't generally go together in the same sentence. Perhaps if you're fortunate enough to be enjoying upmarket corporate hospitality at a test match or at the races you can expect a decent bite, but for most of us soggy pies and plastic hot dogs are abou...Read This Article
Three New Italians For The Fylde
When it comes to keeping the whole family happy, Italian wins hands down. Whether it's a fussy five-year-old you're trying to accommodate or a pernickety pensioner, an Italian menu has something for everyone -- pizza, pasta, meat, fish, even risotto if you're in the mood for rice...Read This Article
