Reviews in Fylde Coast and Blackpool

through my experiences of take away food, i have not come across many that pride them selves in their food hygiene inabilities. i found they were serving food from their containers with their bare hands and then not even washing them, i will not be returning to this establishment again. the shop itself is clean enough, but when i saw they were using their bare hands, i had to throw the food away even though i took it off them.

AVOID this restaurant - We were 'booked' in for dinner for 4 upstairs last Sat nightfor my wifes birthday. Arrived on time and could see it looked like chaos, we were then told they had no booking down for us and we could sit in the bar and they would come and get us. While we thought about it 2 other guests from different parties came and complained that they were booked in for 7pm and 7.30pm and had not been seated, It was now 8.45!!! SO even if they had our name down, we didn't have a chance of eating for 2 hours. The woman on reception didn't seem bothered and even remarked she was "getting it in the neck tonight" Very poor has really gone down hill

i came here for my birthady it was shit service and poor food

Great location lovely rural setting. However, service all round was very disappointing. The breakfast service terrible. Rooms ok but the bed the worse I have ever slept in. For the price we could have got alot better. Don't think we would return

My family and I are regular customers and telephone our orders in each week. The staff are polite helpful and very efficient. If there is to be any delay you are notified before payment details are taken. The delivery staff are prompt efficient and very polite. A pleasure to deal with I look forward to many more enjoyable take aways.

we visited Gennars for a meal, we were very disappointed with the service food and the attitude of the staff! they were not interested if they had not seen you in there before. would not recommended at all!

I have never had such bad service as I have from the staff and the manager of this restaurant. Firstly we received a diet coke which was flat and replaced by another which was also flat. When i complained about this I was told that everyones was the same. Then when the main course came out my partners sweet and sour chicken was tiny. about four fork fulls in fact. When I complained about this I was told it was on the specials menu and therefore a small portion. It was in fact less than half the size of mine. When The manager then said the portion was fine we just thought it was small because my partner is pregnant and 'eating for two'. finally they tried to over charge us. If you like tiny portions and being insulted by restaurant managers then this is the place for you, if not, then give china red a miss, I know I will never go back.

After being told that this place was great, I thought I'd see for myself. Yes it's a lovely place in a nice location. However I was disappointed in the meal I had. My ideal Sunday roast consists of all the trimmings, the veg, Yorkshire puddings etc, not here however, thats were I was disappointed. Lamb, two roast potatoes, two boiled potatoes, strips of turnip, carrots which were hard and green peas in pods? and swimming in gravy. I'm sorry but I will not be returning.

best fish and chips for miles especially after a good walk down esplanade.

Excellent food and service - a big improvement on the previous owners in that respect. I can confirm that real ale IS being served at the bar. It seems that it took a little while to get it sorted in the early days which is why Alan Edwards didn't find any. Well kept as well I might add (CAMRA types take note)! Highly recommended.

The meal in question was the Cumberland Sausage dish: the sausages were admittedly substantial but had that evident unyielding pre-cooked, subsequently microwaved consistency. The gravy had a good amount of onion but it was raw. The mash was OK, having a couple of lumps in it at least indicating that it was real potato. The dish arrived without the advertised vegetables and when I enquired, a dish chiefly consisting of badly microwaved broccoli was presented. In the time it took to serve the meal, the whole lot could have been cooked from fresh.

The Leeraj is the best curry house in the fylde. the food is great whether you eat in or takeaway - the banquet for two takeaway is brill and feeds the three of us.

i have only been to mamas a once before and had really good service, so my friends and i was all looking forward to a nice pleasant meal the food we all really enjoyed, but the minute we put our dessert spoons down we were told to leave the table for other customers and told we had 1 minute to finish our drinks and leave would of been understandable if we had behaved in a wrong manor but this was not the case. never have i been out for meal with friends and family and been treated this way especially by the manager just because he was having a busy night. so for this reason i would not recommend this venue.

Pipers has not yet failed to please having now visited on a number of occasions; evening meal, sunday lunch and midweek lunch. The quality and preparation of the ingredients is reflected in the taste - the beef as though it has just wandered down from the bowland fells and the accompanying dressings enhancing rather than overcoming the true flavour of the meal. This is the only restaurant where my husband has repeatedly ordered the house red in favour of some of the superb named wines. Whereas for myself I have found that Pipers is more than happy to provide tap water rather than expecting you to purchase bottled water as in some restaurants. The fresh, warm bread rolls are not the only endearing touch to this delightful restaurant. From my elderly mum who maintains tradition with linen napkins and ham hock, down to my teenage daughter and her friends who enjoy a slightly more contemprorary feel to both the ambience and menu, Pipers doesn't disapoint. For the ladies who, like me, like to lunch I can't provide a recommendation high enough.

great very happy however medium kebabs are small !!!!

eaten many a time, food, service and atmosphere always excellent, best restaurant in and around Preston and the Fylde.

The last time I ate from the bar menu here it was a Beefeater and was excellent. Now it's changed to a Harvester the menu has decreased in choice and reduced in price but the portion size remains as good value for money. Go before 6pm and the prices on a large selection are even cheaper. One thing very much lacking is the choice of drinks for children. We have 3yr old twins and were offered only fruit squash in glasses - any parent will tell any landlord the virtues of fruitshoot type drinks - so if you have a three year old who can't yet handle a half pint glass then maybe take your own drinking bottle/cup. Service was excellent and can not be faulted. The Queensway has a brilliant reputation based on customer care and the management team certainly carries that on. If you want good food for a reasonable price then you won't go wrong.

We were only here in Blackpool for a family weekend, and decided to go into the King Edwards just for one drink before going back to our B&B, and ended up staying for the whole evening! We went on a Friday night, and the new owners had live entertainment on. Leanne Fury was singing there, a comedian half time, and then Leanne Fury with another singer Jimmy Love at the end of the night, the atmosphere was great, the drinks were a good price, and they did food right through the evening, so yeah great place, and next time were in Blackpool, we will definitely make a point of going back there!!
