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.
The food was excellent, and in plentiful supply. A full plate of what you want, and you can help yourself to the potatoes and veg! Desserts are also very good. Try Mad about Passion for a light dessert, or the Waffle if you have a bit more room spare!
County Hotel – LythamVisited Whelan? for the first time, after hearing recommendations from Fred Fielder on the GMR radio. I have to agree with Gordon Ramsay and Rick Stein this is, ' absolutely excellent fish and chips'. MY only criticism was we had to wait a long time for a table, but it was well worth it!
Whelans – LythamWe ate here on Friday we had two specials which were 6 pound each not bad, but the fish was very small to say it was supposed to be large, however it was enough for me maybe not my boyfriend as he has a bigger appetite than me, the fish and chips were cooked to perfection didn't feel like I had just eaten fish and chips as they were very light and actually refreshing.
Whelans – Lythamvery enjoyable meal, the fish and chips were delicious, the batter crisp and light. recommend the place to anyone who enjoys a delicious fish and chip meal,
Whelans – LythamAs a life long fan of Pizza Express I feel compelled to mention that the Lytham Branch is letting the side down. It is not the first time we have eaten in this branch and been disappointed. It is almost as though the chefs here are trained differently to the rest of the peerless group. I took my family in on Mothering Sunday and the service was fine but the food (in particular the pizzas) was poor. Please sort it out because at £65 it was just not worth the trip.
Pizza Express – LythamWhelans has just had a refurb and looks fab! They spent thousands on a new range so the fish and chips tastes even better. I'd recommend sitting upstairs (just expanded) and watching Lytham through the big bay windows.
Whelans – LythamJust been for lunch with a colleague, great selection of food at good prices. It's a little gem!
The Lytham Kitchen – LythamWithout doubt the best interpretation of a fine dining restaurant in the area. The dining room has a first class ambience and stunning views over Lytham Green and beyond. The service is as good as any restaurant I've been to. And the food was faultless, although I'm not sure its quite at the level of Michellin stars yet.
Clifton Arms Hotel – Lythamv.nice place, with nice staff
Chattery Cafe, The – LythamMy fiancée and I live in lytham and frequently visit the Redfort on a regular basis (monthly). The food and service are really very hard to surpass! The waiters are even willing to experiment by going off the menu if you like. Although it is walking distance from where we live we would definitely drive to gain such an experience. Well done Danni and Aahad!! Keep it up guys!! Andy and Helen
Red Fort – LythamNot a restaurant really. Lunch served but have not experienced it. Wide selection of real ales and popular with residents and non residents alike. Even when very busy (as is frequent) very friendly.
The Taps – LythamMint.
Queens Hotel – LythamWhat a cool wine bar this is. Fantastic interior ( modern and funky). Funky tunes!!, great food, and fantastic cocktails. Only downfall to many shady characters lurking about!!
Zest Food & Wine Bar – LythamThis is a restaurant Ive been visiting for years. The food is excellent, the ambience is great, service is also very good- the staff really do work hard as the restaurant is always busy. Interior is also very modern and satisfying. If youve never been to this restaurant its definately one to checkout.
Portofino – LythamEnjoyed the luchtime special here and the Minestrone Soup was just delicious also the Ham and Asparagus Pizza.
Portofino – LythamJust want to agree with every word in the first review posted on 27/08/2002. Fortunately Zest is still here in 2004, having managed to defeat the elderly who tried to have it closed down several times.
Zest Food & Wine Bar – LythamNamed The Coffee Bean now, it offers the largest choice of freshly ground coffee and teas in Lytham and not only. You can choose from all sorts of Italian, French, Brazilian, Columbian, etc, or try something with a difference as Swiss Chocolate, Vanilla, Amaretto or Irish Cream coffee. And you can also buy collector's pots, cups, coffee makers or the coffee and tea of your choice. There is tea for all tastes - from camomile flowers (not tea bags) to Japanese, Chinese, or my personal favourite, the Spiced Tea.
Coffee Bean, The – LythamThis place rocks of course as I used to work here - better beer than the taps and not full of golfers come and drink here pronto!
