About This Pub

Ah, the Dog & Partridge in Blackpool – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a breath of fresh air after a busy day out. I have to say, the staff really stand out; they're bubbly and always up for a chat, which makes the place feel warm and inviting, almost like you're part of the gang from the get-go. It's fantastic for catching the latest matches on their multiple screens, and with pints as cheap as £2.50, you won't break the bank just for a round. Plus, being dog-friendly adds a nice touch if you're wandering in with your four-legged pal. On the flip side, though, it's mostly about snacks rather than a full menu, so if you're peckish for something substantial, you might end up disappointed and have to venture out. And while it's got that authentic local charm, it might not wow you if you're after something a bit more polished or tourist-oriented – think of it as a cosy hideaway rather than a glitzy night out. All in all, it's a solid choice for a relaxed evening, especially if you're into sports and good value, but keep those expectations in check for the grub and the vibe.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The staff are absolutely lovely – always cheerful and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • It's a brilliant spot for sports fans, with multiple TVs showing all the big games, including live footy like the Women's Euros.
  • Drinks are incredibly affordable, like pints for just £2.50, which is a real treat these days.
  • The atmosphere is so relaxed and friendly, almost like popping round to a mate's house, and it's dog-friendly too, which is ace if you're out with your furry friend.
  • Handy location near Blackpool's attractions, perfect for a quick pit stop after a day at the Pleasure Beach.
Cons
  • They don't serve full meals, just snacks, so if you're after a proper bite to eat, you might need to head elsewhere.
  • It has a real local vibe, which is great if that's your thing, but it might not feel as exciting for visitors looking for something more touristy or flashy.
  • The entrance has a few steps, so it could be a bit tricky if you're not steady on your feet.

They don’t do food, however, the selection of snacks is spot on. The staff are extremely friendly and are always joking. The atmosphere is so relaxing it feels like a family in here. I don’t like going places myself however in the dog I know I can go in a feel safe.

Excellent for people with sports interests. 7 tvs and I think different sport on each. This is daytime not night however. But shock of shocks when I paid for my carlsburg. At £2.50 a pint. 😳. Wow I did a double take " HOW MUCH "????. Dog friendly. Glad I found this place . I will be here again. Next time I visit Blackpool.

This visit was in Sept 2024, mid week. The pub lies around 200 metres off the sea front and easy to find. The entrance is not at street level, as long as you can manage a step or two, you're fine. The bar is well stocked but is a local pub and not a tourist pub. The staff are efficient and next to no waiting time. I have no issues with beers and enjoyed a pint or two. They have offers on and when I called, you could get a pint (Carlsberg or John Smith) for a little over £2 !! The décor is, olde world, coronation/WW2 style and fixtures and fittings showing more than average wear and tear. Toilets are a little behind the times and need a full refurbish as these also resemble the London underground wall tiles from 1940. They do provide some kind of entertainment and on the afternoon I visited it was - sorry to be blunt - diabolical. At first we thought it was Karaoke which turned out to be a singer. It was so loud the walls shook in this small pub. There was no escape and there were a few complaints, as such, people left. There are multiple large TV's (not HD quality), a pool table (unable to play due to locals hogging it), a dart board and really resembled a workman's club from 1980. Not everyone's cup of tea but for the drinks price, worth a visit.

Great pub. Really welcoming feel. I was asked to join the darts team on my first visit... They needed another player or the forfeit 😁,. Usual line up of green king beers. Cheapest pint of Peroni? This pub feels the most mature of the pubs in this section of Lytham road that's not a bad thing.
