Reviews in Lytham

Visited this cafe at 4.30 on Fri afternoon. Was greeted very warmly by a nice gentleman i presume was the owner. Only really wanted a quick cup of tea but was tempted by him to have a piece of cake too. Was then served by a woman who i can safely say is the rudest and most miserable looking individual i have had the misfortune to meet! I assume she is the owners wife as any employee with that attitude would surely be sacked. Needless to say i wont be returning despite the tea and cake being quite nice. Whatever happened to service with a smile?!

Enjoyed my Chilii con Carne in the sun. Excellent cask ale from Thwaites, Double Nelson I think it was called. All for a very good price as you would expect from Wetherspoons. Bet they do a roaring trade!

i WOULD LIKE TO BOOK THE FUNCTION ROOM FOR 2 NOV 2013 PLEASE COULD YOU SEND ME A LIST OF PRICES

Had an excellent evening here a couple of weeks ago. We went in quite a large group, about 15, on a Friday night about half nine and were accommodated no problem! The service was first class, nothing was a problem! The food was tasty, hot and cooked to specific requirements when asked for. The specials were very good too. I would highly recommend any Indian lover to try this restaurant, confident it won't disappoint.

I thought the food was amazing! I would say a 4 star rating! The service was very, very quick it took less that 25 minutes it was great! The value for money as well was excellent if you go for the early bird and even if you don't make the early bird you could still get great food for a cheap amount! The waiters were very welcoming and the presentation of the restaurant was very nice and was clearly orthentic Chinese decoration! I would recommend all my friends and family to go to woks cooking! Thankyou!

We were looking forward to this Wetherspoons pub opening in our town. Not a big fan of them nationally but it had to be an improvement on the Hansome Cab that was here before. The place has had a huge makeover though the structure is the same. Outside at the front a a cool modern beer garden. Inside is frankly quite a wierd mix of styles and definitely not to everyones taste, The beer choice is truly excellent and the menu very good value indeed, especially the £6.99 for 2 courses. It was very busy as you would expect for a place just opened in Lytham. The prices and size do make me worry for other venues nearby!

Favourite place on the fylde! Wish there was more info on here about it, menus etc. Like the idea of beer platters!

This is an outstanding Indian Restaurant in every way - the food is excellent, the staff and friendly and helpful, the service is outstanding and the ambience is welcoming.

Whilst in line for my sublime chips I noticed Gordon Ramsey on the wall and a testimonial from Rick Stien on a flyer. Turned to my right and heypresto there was Bill Beaumont in the flesh. Like dining in the Ivy, celebs everywhere!

My wife, daughter and myself called in early this evening for a meal for Father's Day. An excellent meal and good value for money as we had the 3 course Sunday banquet for £9.95 each (but the drinks and papadoms were extra.). We had 3 different meals; you can really see that each dish has been prepared separately unlike some other Indian restaurants that all seem to serve the same base but with a different sauce. I recommended the Red Fort to a couple that asked us if it was nice, as we came out!

Excellent food - the tapas were as wonderful as any we have had in traditional spanish tapas bars and the cocktails were great! However, the stroppy blonde waitress who didn't manage to smile at all, or say more than three words to us in the whole time we were there really let this place down.

Quite simply my favourite restaurant in the area, The service is outstandingly good/friendly and the food is superbly flavoursome with a wide selection of signature dishes to compliment the more traditional cuisine. The Zaflong lamb in particular, is simply excellent! I thoroughly recommend this place.

My friend and I had the Super-Saver lunch at Portofino today, which was incredible value for money at only £10.99. My starter was wild mushrooms on crostini and was absolutely delicious. I had pan-fried hake next, which was perfectly cooked, sitting on top of very finely sliced potatoes, which were brown and crispy at the edges and served with aubergine and courgette slices. What a wonderful chef they have there! We can't wait to go back again for lunch!

My husband and I and a couple we visited Lytham with fancied an ice cream on what was the hottest day of the year so far. Saturday 26th May. We wanted a homemade icecream and did some quick street market research. Several people clutching what looked like very good ice creams directed us to Fancy That which was some distance away from where we were. We arrived at exactly 5pm to be told "we are closing and you cant have an icecream". Come on guys you are a cafe/icecream parlour in a seaside resort on a busy hot Saturday in todays economic climate nobody can afford to turn business away. We visit Lytham frequently and will never trouble you again to sell us your very expensive icecream.

Java serves over priced non edible so called food in a tiny pit. We took visitors to Java recently and experienced the worst customer service possible, firstly being seated 4 people to a table set for 2 in front of the bar where customers continued to push past us. We then had to wait 45mins for our food to arrive which was over cooked and minimal. The chicken was rock hard and the salad consisted of nothing but lettuce leaves with the kids pizza like rubber and not even cut. They didn't provide a children's menu so therefore had to order off the main menu which was overpriced for a child's portion. When we tried to explain or dissatisfaction the staff did not seem interested. During or wait for food we witnessed staff making numerous mistakes with food and beverage orders to other tables. I will never be back in Java again and highly recommend no one else goes if they expect standard customer service with appetising food.

What a lovely meal we have just had at Java and the staff are always really helpful we will come again really soon

Just been to have a look at the "new" Fairhaven. What a disappointment! My chewy sirloin steak was served with shrivelled mushrooms, chips that has obv seen better days and a grilled tomato, the chilli sauce was just glutanous gravy :( My huband's roast pork was dry and this was offset by soggy broccoli. With a glass of pinot grigio and a pint of Wainwrights the meal came to £30.15. Only 2 other tables were occupied, now we know why.
