The Bank Bar & Grill is a real gem in Blackpool, offering top-notch service and delicious grub in a relaxed setting, though the toilets could use a freshen-up.

Thirsty? Alehouse is a charming Blackpool spot that's all about top-notch real ales, friendly vibes, and a welcoming atmosphere – a real treat for ale enthusiasts, though watch out for those limited opening times.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely brilliant, with a fantastic range of real ales and ciders at really good prices – perfect for anyone who loves a proper pint.
  • The staff are so welcoming and friendly; they make you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.

  • The hours are limited, typically starting around 2 PM and wrapping up by 11 PM, so it might not suit late-night plans.
  • From what I've seen, they don't seem to serve food yet, though they might be planning to – that could leave you needing to head elsewhere for a bite.

Cask & Tap is a welcoming Blackpool micropub that's a haven for real ale lovers, boasting a cracking atmosphere and friendly vibes, though it does close up shop a tad early.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely spot on, with a fantastic range of real cask ales, ciders, and craft taps that cater to all tastes – it's a real treat for ale enthusiasts.
  • The atmosphere is just lovely; it's all about relaxed chats and good company without any noisy distractions like TVs or jukeboxes, making it perfect for a proper catch-up.

  • They've earned a spot in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide, and with such high praise from visitors, it's clear this place knows how to keep things top-notch.
Areas for Improvement
  • The opening hours wrap up a bit early, especially on weekdays, so if you're after a late-night pint, you might find yourself heading elsewhere before last orders.
  • It can get quite busy at times, like on a Tuesday evening as one visitor mentioned, which might make it tricky to find a seat if you're popping in spontaneously.
  • While it's all about the ale and conversation, some folks might miss having a bit more variety in entertainment or food options, as it's more focused on drinks than a full meal.

Dirty Blondes in Blackpool is a cracking little bar with top-notch food, a welcoming vibe, and plenty of fun touches – it's a proper gem for a relaxed evening with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on – those massive 18-inch pizzas are a bargain, especially with deals like the one for £10, and the chicken wings and poutine fries are real crowd-pleasers.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help out, whether you're tackling a giant pizza or just chatting away.
  • The atmosphere is spot on for a good night out, with live music, a great playlist, and even old arcade games to keep everyone entertained and in high spirits.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some of the pizzas can be a bit sparse on toppings, which might leave you wanting a tad more bang for your buck.
  • It can feel a little on the pricey side overall, so you might want to keep an eye on your wallet before diving in.
  • The operating hours seem a bit muddled from what I've seen, so it's worth double-checking to avoid any disappointment if you're planning a visit.

Cowboy & Co. is a brilliant country music haven in Blackpool, offering a lively, authentic experience with friendly vibes and live tunes, though it does have its cosy – sometimes too cosy – moments.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely buzzing, especially for country music fans – it's like a little slice of Nashville right in Blackpool, with live music every weekend that gets everyone tapping their toes.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming; they've got that genuine passion for what they do, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • Drinks are reasonably priced, and they've got some great special events like Superbowl parties or Valentine's nights, plus options for private hire that sound perfect for celebrations.
  • It's a cosy spot with a real community vibe, and the live entertainment is top-notch, turning every visit into a memorable night out.
Areas for Improvement
  • The venue can get a bit cramped during live shows, which might make it tricky to move around or find space, especially if it's a popular event.
  • With varying opening hours and it being closed some days, it might not be as accessible as you'd like for a spontaneous night out.

The Waterloo Music Bar in Blackpool is a cracking little spot for live music lovers, buzzing with energy and friendly faces, but it does have a few accessibility niggles that might put some off.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The live music scene is absolutely brilliant, with a fantastic lineup of bands and tribute acts that really get the crowd going.
  • The staff and owners are incredibly friendly and helpful, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • There's plenty of space and big screens so you can catch the action even if you're not right at the front, which is a nice touch.
  • Prices for drinks are really competitive, and they've got a good selection of draughts, bottles, and spirits to choose from.
  • The atmosphere is electric, especially during gigs, and it's a welcoming spot for everyone with lots of upcoming events to look forward to.
Areas for Improvement
  • Accessibility isn't quite up to scratch for those with mobility issues; it's tough if you can't stand for long, as the best views are at the front.
  • The venue layout might make it tricky for wheelchair users to get around, particularly with crowds and the location of facilities.
  • Operating hours aren't clearly listed, which could leave you guessing about when it's open, especially if you're planning a visit.
  • Some events require ID and have age restrictions, so it's not ideal if you're after a more relaxed, all-ages vibe every time.

  • The food portions are generous, perfect if you're just after something hearty to keep you going during a day out in Blackpool.
Areas for Improvement
  • The menu's a bit limited, mainly sticking to soup and toasties, so if you're hoping for a wider range of options, you might end up feeling a tad underwhelmed.
  • It can get quite busy at times, which means you're tied to table service, and while the staff handle it well, waits might crop up during peak hours.
  • One review mentioned a bit of a mishap during a visit, which sounds like it could've been unsettling, even if folks still enjoyed the place overall.

What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • It's got a lovely, relaxing atmosphere with great décor and even fun seasonal touches like Halloween decorations.
  • Super dog-friendly – they provide water bowls and let your furry friends join in on the comfy chairs, which is a real bonus.
  • Family-friendly vibe, perfect for popping in with kids or for a casual meal like their tasty Sunday dinners.
  • Excellent drinks on offer, with reviewers raving about the superb pint of Guinness and overall good times had by all.
Areas for Improvement
  • The website seems a bit unreliable – we had some errors trying to access it, so you might need to rely on their Facebook page for the latest info.
  • Not many recent reviews in the last six months, which makes you wonder if things have stayed as consistently brilliant or if it's quieter these days.

Rhythm and Brew Room is a gem in Blackpool, blending awesome beers with lively music for a relaxed and welcoming pub experience that'll have you coming back for more.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely spot on – they've got a cracking range from their own Pool Brewing Co and beyond, perfect for anyone who loves a good ale or stout.
  • Live music adds such a brilliant vibe; it's the go-to place in Blackpool for catching some divine tunes and soaking up that community feel.
  • The staff are dead friendly and always up for a chat, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • It's a spacious venue with plenty of comfy seating areas, so you can find your own little nook or join the buzz, whatever you're in the mood for.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can be a bit quiet during off-peak times, especially early in the evening, so if you're after a lively crowd, you might want to time your visit just right.
  • Food options seem limited – from what I've heard, it's mostly about the beers, so if you're hoping for a full meal, you might need to head elsewhere first.

The Ardwick is a cracking little pub in Blackpool that's all about great value, friendly faces, and a bit of fun – ideal for a relaxed pint with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • Incredibly affordable drinks – pints like Fosters at just £1.80 make it a wallet-friendly spot for a good night out.
  • Friendly and welcoming staff who always seem up for a chat, creating that cosy, local vibe.
  • Spotlessly clean throughout, from the bar area to the toilets, which is a real bonus for a casual pub.
  • Loads of fun activities on offer, like darts, pool, karaoke, and live sports, keeping things lively and entertaining.
  • A great atmosphere that's welcoming for both locals and visitors, especially with its prime location just off the Blackpool front.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's a straightforward, no-frills place, so if you're after something fancy or upscale, it might feel a bit basic and unpolished.
  • The food options seem limited – mentions of simple butties, but nothing too exciting for those wanting a proper meal.
  • Opening times can be a tad confusing with varying schedules listed, which might catch you out if you're planning a visit.
  • As it's more of a classic boozer, the music and entertainment might not suit everyone, especially if you prefer a quieter setting.

Soul Suite in Blackpool is a cracking spot for soul music lovers, with a warm welcome and lively dances, but watch out for the crowds and drink temperatures that might dampen the fun a bit.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The music is absolutely brilliant, with a fantastic lineup of Soul and Tamla Motown tunes that really get everyone up and dancing – it's like stepping back into the golden era!
  • The staff are so friendly and welcoming; they make you feel right at home from the moment you walk in, with a special nod to those helpful doormen.
  • There's a cracking atmosphere, especially during the day or on quieter nights, where you can enjoy a lively crowd of all ages having a proper good time on the dance floor.
  • The layout is spot on, with a spacious dance area that's perfect for letting loose and enjoying the vibes without feeling cramped.
  • They've got a packed schedule of events and DJs, like Mikey Mike or JJ Gibson, which keeps things fresh and exciting for regular visitors.
Areas for Improvement
  • Drinks can be a bit of a letdown, with some folks complaining about warm bottles, especially the lager, which takes the edge off an otherwise fun night.
  • It gets pretty packed in the evenings, and that can lead to an unsettled vibe with rowdy groups, making it feel a tad tense at times.
  • The dress code after 7pm might put some off if you're not up for smart casual, and it could mean you have to plan ahead or head out early if you're not dressed for it.

  • It can get absolutely packed, so you'll need to turn up early if you want to snag a seat without the hassle
  • If you're not from around the area, you might end up waiting ages to get your turn on the karaoke, which can put a dampener on things

Three Piers Cookhouse + Pub

Verified

88/100
Three Piers Cookhouse + Pub is a right gem in Blackpool – friendly vibes, solid grub, and handy location make it a go-to for a relaxed pint and meal with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food here is absolutely brilliant – think tasty pub grub like grilled chicken Caesar flatbread and melt-in-the-middle fish pie, all well-presented and generous with portions, especially at those lunchtime deals starting from just £5.
  • Service is top-notch; the staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome, with mentions of folks like Tom and Becki creating personal touches that really make a visit special.
  • It's in a cracking spot right opposite Blackpool North Pier, near all the main attractions and even a tram stop, making it dead convenient for a bite after exploring.
  • The atmosphere is lovely and cosy, with great decor that makes it feel welcoming for everything from a quick meal to celebrating with mates or family.
  • Value for money is spot on, particularly with options to add starters or desserts for a song, and it's open most of the day for breakfast through to evening drinks.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get quite busy, especially in peak times or near the attractions, so you might want to book ahead to avoid any disappointment with waits.
  • The menu sticks to classic pub fare, which is great if that's your thing, but if you're after something a bit more adventurous or exotic, it might not hit the mark.
  • With moderate prices, it's not the cheapest spot in Blackpool, so if you're on a tight budget, you might find other options that are a tad more wallet-friendly.

Ma Kelly’s is a lively live music bar in Blackpool with cheap drinks, great entertainment, and a welcoming vibe, though it's not without the odd staff-related hiccup.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The live music and entertainment really bring the place to life, especially after 8pm with bands and karaoke that get everyone in the mood.
  • Drinks are incredibly affordable, making it a brilliant spot for a budget-friendly night out without skimping on the fun.
  • The atmosphere is welcoming and buzzing, particularly on weekends when it's packed with folks just out to enjoy themselves and have a good time.
  • Service is generally efficient, with staff keeping things running smoothly and the place feeling lively and engaging.
Areas for Improvement
  • There have been a few reports of certain staff members being a bit overzealous or rude, like one instance where someone got kicked out unfairly, which could put a damper on the evening.
  • It can get really crowded, especially on busy nights, so if you're not keen on a packed space, it might feel a tad overwhelming.

Raleside Brewhouse is a charming pub in Blackpool that's got brilliant staff, decent grub, and a handy spot by the station, though it has a few niggles like a limited beer range.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The location is spot on, right next to Blackpool's train station, making it super convenient for a quick stop or to drop off luggage if you're grabbing a bite.
  • Staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the beers, which really adds to the welcoming feel – it's like chatting with mates who know their stuff.
  • They've got a great selection of beers, including their own IPA, and the atmosphere is lovely with a train theme that ties in nicely with the surroundings.
  • Food options are spot on, with tasty choices like paninis and toasties, and it's all served in a comfortable setting with big screens for catching the sport.
  • Overall, it's got a cracking vibe and high ratings from folks who've visited, making it a reliable choice for a relaxed pint or meal.
Areas for Improvement
  • The beer selection is mostly keg-based, which might disappoint if you're after a wider range of cask ales – it's a bit limited for the real ale enthusiasts.
  • With only around 47 reviews so far, it feels like it could use a bit more buzz to really establish itself, though the ones there are glowing.
  • The website seems a tad unreliable based on what I've seen, so you might have to rely on word of mouth or a quick visit to get the full scoop.
  • Operating hours vary a bit, which could be confusing if you're planning ahead, and it's not specified how pricey things are, so budget accordingly.

Raikes Hall is a cracking traditional pub in Blackpool, with a sunny beer garden and top-notch service that makes it a go-to for a relaxed pint and good times.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant – always friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • That beer garden is a real winner, especially on a sunny day; it's spacious, gets plenty of sun, and has a lovely relaxing vibe for enjoying a pint.
  • They've got well-kept beers and lagers that taste spot on, with regulars raving about the clean pints and affordable options.
  • It's super dog-friendly, with snacks and water bowls for furry friends, which is perfect if you're popping in with your pooch.
  • The pub has a great historic feel, full of character, plus perks like a function room, free parking, and fun events like quiz nights that keep things lively.
Areas for Improvement
  • The beer selection could do with more local options; it's a bit disappointing if you're after something truly regional, as mentioned in a few chats.
  • It might feel a tad out of the way or rougher around the edges compared to the busier town spots, so it's not ideal if you're seeking a more polished vibe.
  • Food is cheap and cheerful, but it's only served on weekends, which could be a downside if you're hoping for a bite midweek.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff and locals are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.

  • The atmosphere is lively and fun, with karaoke, a pool table, and darts to keep things entertaining.
  • The food hits the spot, like those meat and potato pies or a nostalgic ploughman's lunch that pairs perfectly with a pint.
Areas for Improvement
  • The outside and inside can look a bit rough around the edges, so it might not catch your eye straight away.
  • There have been a few mentions of drinks not being quite right occasionally, which is a shame in an otherwise solid spot.
  • It has that traditional backstreet pub vibe, which could feel a tad dated if you're after something more polished.

  • Options for extras like lemon or lime slices are limited, so if you're fussy about your drinks, it could disappoint.
  • The drink selection isn't massive, so if you're hoping for a wide variety, you might find it a tad lacking.

  • The views from this spot are absolutely stunning, right on the promenade with the sea stretching out – it's perfect for a relaxing afternoon or evening.
  • The food is generally spot on, with tasty starters like tomato dishes and chicken tenders, and mains such as fillet steak and salmon that are cooked to perfection and full of flavour.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home from the moment you arrive.
  • There's a great atmosphere with live music and a nice outdoor seating area, which adds to the fun without overwhelming things too much.
  • It's got a separate dining and bar area, which makes it versatile for different occasions, and some options feel reasonably priced despite the overall expense.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some desserts can be a bit underwhelming, like the Basque cheesecake which was described as bland in one visit.
  • The live music, while enjoyable, can get a tad too loud at times, making it tricky to chat over a meal.
  • It's on the pricey side, so it might not be the best pick if you're watching your wallet on a night out.

Shenanigans is a cracking Irish pub in Blackpool that's full of character, with a lively atmosphere and friendly faces that make for a memorable night out.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely buzzing, with fantastic DJs and singers that really get the party going – it's like stepping back in time for a proper good time.
  • The staff are lovely and friendly, always up for a chat and making sure everyone feels welcome, which adds to the warm vibe.
  • It's spotlessly clean, especially the toilets, which is a nice touch when you're out for a night of fun.
  • A great spot for letting your hair down, with a lively crowd especially on weekends, making it perfect for birthdays or just a night out.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can be a bit quiet early in the day, so if you're popping in for a quick pint before things pick up, it might not feel as lively.
  • Prices can add up if you're not watching your wallet, as one mate mentioned spending a fortune, even though it was worth it for the experience.
  • Without a website or much online presence, it's tricky to check out menus or events in advance, which might leave you winging it.

Ma Kellys is a cracking pub in Blackpool with top-notch live music and a lively crowd, but it's got a couple of rough edges worth noting.

Bloom Bar on North Pier is a luxurious spot with fabulous views and a lively atmosphere, but it can turn quiet and noisy in equal measure depending on the time.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The decor is absolutely stunning and super Instagramable, with plush carpets and new furniture that make you feel right at home.
  • You've got those breathtaking sea views from the pier, perfect for a relaxing drink while soaking in the scenery.
  • The staff are incredibly polite and efficient, always on hand to keep things running smoothly and make you feel welcome.
  • It's got a lively vibe with DJs, singers, and plenty of entertainment, plus a massive beer garden that's great for outdoor fun.
  • They offer a solid selection of drinks and simple bar snacks, and it's buzzing with energy, especially on weekends.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get really loud with the music, which might spoil the mood if you're after a more chilled-out chat.
  • They have a policy of clearing out families after 8:30 PM, which leaves the place feeling a bit deserted in the evenings.
  • The music playlist is a tad generic and not everyone's cup of tea, so it might not hit the spot for music lovers seeking something unique.

The New Albert is a lively, affordable pub in Blackpool that's spot on for sports enthusiasts and anyone after a casual night with good drinks and games.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • They've got a cracking selection of beers and drinks at really reasonable prices, making it a wallet-friendly spot for a pint or two.
  • It's a top-notch sports bar with loads of memorabilia, plenty of screens to catch the game, and even outdoor seating for when the weather's nice.
  • The entertainment options are spot on – think three pool tables, a jukebox, and even bingo nights, perfect for kicking off a fun evening.
  • The indoor space is dead comfortable with cosy nooks, and the staff are accommodating, especially if you're visiting from out of town.
Areas for Improvement
  • The website seems a bit tricky to access, which might make it harder to check out menus or events before you pop in.
  • It feels very sports-oriented, so if you're not into watching matches or playing pool, it might not be the most varied spot for a quiet chat.
  • Some reviews come across as just 'okay' rather than outstanding, suggesting it might not wow everyone, especially if you're after something more upscale.

  • It's a brilliant spot for sports fans, with multiple TVs showing all the big games, including live footy like the Women's Euros.

  • 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.
Areas for Improvement
  • 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.

  • It has a strong local vibe, which might make it feel a tad cliquey if you're not from the area, though it's not unfriendly
  • Snacks are limited to the basics like crisps and nuts, so not much for those wanting more substantial nibbles

The Washington in Blackpool is a cracking little pub with tasty, budget-friendly food and a welcoming atmosphere, though it's not without a few niggles like inconsistent service and the odd small portion.
Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • Staff are super friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home with their warm welcomes and quick service – it's like chatting with mates behind the bar.

Areas for Improvement

  • Service isn't always top-notch; it can vary, with some visits feeling a tad rushed or not as attentive as you'd hope.
  • The place could do with a freshen-up here and there, like a bit of paint to spruce up the ambience and keep things looking inviting.

The Bridge is a lively sports bar in Blackpool with cracking entertainment and a community spirit, but it's let down by occasional service slip-ups.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The live music and karaoke really bring the place to life, creating a fun and engaging atmosphere for a night out.
  • It's got that genuine local vibe, with affordable drinks and a welcoming feel that makes you want to stick around.
  • Being family-friendly means it's a great spot for a relaxed get-together, whether you're with mates or popping in for a quick pint.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be inconsistent, with some staff coming across as rude or inattentive, which puts a damper on things.
  • Opening hours aren't always reliable, as it's been known to close early despite what's advertised, leading to frustration.
  • The crowd might feel a bit cliquey at times, making it less welcoming for newcomers or those just passing through.

The Albert & The Lion is a lively Wetherspoons in Blackpool that's spot on for affordable drinks and a casual vibe, though it can get a tad chaotic with inconsistent food.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant, always multitasking and keeping everything running smoothly even when it's packed to the rafters.
  • Prices are a steal – you can get a pint for just £1.99, making it perfect for a budget-friendly night out.
  • It's got a charming interior and a great spot right under the Blackpool Tower, with some seats outside for a bit of fresh air and sea views.
  • Service is quick and friendly, especially if you use the app, and the food can be spot on when it's good, like a hot and tasty breakfast.
Areas for Improvement
  • Food quality can be hit or miss; some dishes like the chicken jalfrezi have been described as watery, with burnt poppadoms and hard naan that might put you off.
  • It gets incredibly busy at any time, which means it can feel a bit overwhelming and you might struggle to find a seat or get served promptly.
  • Not every meal hits the mark – there've been complaints about off-putting bits in the rice, so it's worth checking before you tuck in.

Shickers Tavern is a charming little live music bar in Blackpool, offering a cracking selection of ales in a cosy, friendly setting – ideal for a laid-back pint with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • Fantastic selection of craft and real ales – it's a real treat for beer enthusiasts, with plenty of options to sample and enjoy.
  • Live music on Saturdays adds a lively buzz; it's perfect for a relaxed evening out with friends, especially if you fancy a bit of a singalong.
  • The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, making it feel like a proper local spot that's great for both holidaymakers and regulars alike.
  • Friendly staff and owner who make you feel right at home, with reasonable prices that won't break the bank.
  • Handy location on Birley Street, close to other bars, so it's easy to hop around for a proper night out in Blackpool.
Areas for Improvement
  • Food options are pretty basic, just nuts and crisps, so if you're after a proper meal, you might need to head elsewhere.
  • It's a small, one-roomed spot, which means it can get a bit cramped when it's busy, especially during live music nights.
  • No clear operating hours listed, which could make planning a visit a tad tricky – you might want to check ahead to avoid disappointment.
  • With only a handful of reviews, it's not the most well-known place, so it might not be on everyone's radar just yet.

The Layton Rakes is a solid Wetherspoon in Blackpool that's buzzing with friendly vibes and decent grub, though it has its off moments with noise and food prep.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready with a smile and quick service that makes you feel right at home.
  • The food hits the spot more often than not, with plenty of options that are spot on for a casual meal, especially if you're after something hearty and affordable.
  • It's in a brilliant location on Market Street, easy to pop into after a wander or while waiting for a bus, and the atmosphere can be lively and enjoyable, particularly up on the roof on a sunny day.
  • As a classic Wetherspoon, it's great value for money, perfect for a relaxed pint or a bite without breaking the bank.
Areas for Improvement
  • The background noise can get a bit overwhelming at times, especially with groups of lively youngsters around, which might disrupt a peaceful chat.
  • Food quality can be hit or miss; some dishes might come out looking rushed or not quite hot enough, like lukewarm chips that leave you wanting more.
  • Prices seem a tad higher than you'd expect from other Wetherspoon spots, which could put a damper on the budget-friendly vibe.
  • There are occasional disappointments with certain items, such as pizzas that feel like they've been hurried, making the overall experience less consistent.

  • The bar's well-stocked with a great selection of cask ales, lagers, wines, and spirits, perfect for enjoying with mates over a game of pool.
  • Handy location just off the seafront in Blackpool, and it's open from early morning till late, making it ideal for a full day out.
Areas for Improvement
  • On busy days, like Bank Holidays, the bar can get understaffed, leading to long waits for drinks that might put a dampener on things.
  • There have been a few gripes about food quality slipping occasionally, such as soggy chips or oily onion rings that don't quite hit the mark.
  • The atmosphere can feel a bit overwhelming when it's packed, so it might not be the best spot if you're after a quiet pint.

Merrie England is a cheerful Blackpool bar with lively music and comedy that makes for a cracking afternoon, though it has its rough edges with occasional drink issues and bold humour.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The live music, especially the accordion sessions, is an absolute treat and creates a lively, sing-along atmosphere that's perfect for a fun afternoon out.
  • Friendly staff who make you feel right at home, adding to that welcoming vibe we all love in a good pub.
  • The entertainment, like Joey Blower's comedy, brings plenty of laughs and keeps things entertaining – it's a great spot for some cheeky British humour.
  • It's moderately priced, so you can enjoy a few drinks and a show without breaking the bank.
  • A great place to meet new people and have a chat, with the music level just right so you don't have to shout over it.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some drinks might be past their best, like out-of-date beers, which can put a dampener on things if you're after a fresh pint.
  • The humour can get a bit crude at times, so it might not suit everyone – think Roy Chubby Brown style, which is fun if you're up for it, but could be off-putting otherwise.
  • The overall vibe is quite rough and ready, with some colourful characters around, so it might feel a tad overwhelming if you're looking for something more relaxed.
  • Reviews suggest it's hit or miss with the quality, as not every visit is flawless, which keeps it from being a guaranteed winner.

Growlr Club @ Man Bar in Blackpool is a quirky gay bar with a fun atmosphere and affordable prices, but it's got its flaws like dodgy drinks and limited hours that might put some off.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is lively and fun, especially during events like Pride weekend, making it a great spot for a good time with friends.
  • It's an inexpensive place, so you won't break the bank for a night out, which is always a plus for a casual evening.
  • The bar has a unique and funky vibe with things like karaoke and a happy hour that runs from 9am to 7pm – perfect for getting the party started early.
  • Locals and staff can be friendly, adding to that welcoming feel if you're looking for a relaxed chat.
Areas for Improvement
  • The beer quality seems hit or miss; some folks have had really bad experiences with it tasting off, which could ruin your drink.
  • Staff aren't always on their best behaviour – there have been reports of rudeness, which might leave you feeling unwelcome.
  • It's only open two days a week, mainly late evenings, so it's not the easiest place to pop into spontaneously.
  • Being cash only might be a hassle in this digital age, and there are occasional mix-ups with opening times that could catch you out.

Castle Hotel Blackpool is a welcoming community pub right in the heart of Blackpool, great for sinking a pint while watching the match, though it has the odd off night that keeps things real.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is always buzzing, especially if you're there for live sports – plenty of big screens showing football, rugby, and more, making it a top spot for catching the game with mates.
  • Staff are really friendly and welcoming; from the bouncers who are chatty and polite to the bar team keeping things spotless and serving up great pints quickly.
  • It's affordably priced with unbeatable drink offers, and the central location in Blackpool makes it dead easy to pop in after a day out exploring.
  • There's a good mix of entertainment like pool tables, darts, and even a beer garden, plus it's family-friendly in parts during certain hours.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some evenings can feel a bit lacklustre, like it was empty on New Year's Eve in one review, which might put you off if you're after a lively crowd.
  • Entertainment isn't always spot on – we've heard tales of DJs making dodgy jokes that cross the line, which could spoil the fun for some folks.
  • As it's both a pub and a hotel, expectations might not match up; it's cheap and cheerful, but you won't get luxury vibes here.

Areas for Improvement
  • Drinks can be a bit on the pricey side, often over £10 each, which might make you think twice if you're out for a casual pint or two.
  • The bathrooms aren't always up to scratch – some reviews mentioned cobwebs and a need for better cleaning, which is a shame in such a posh setting.

  • Their bottomless brunch is a real winner, with fantastic deals that leave you spoilt for choice and buzzing with energy – perfect for a fun catch-up with mates.
  • It's got a cracking atmosphere, especially for live sports and themed nights like Mad Mondays or Old School Sundays, where the vibe is lively and the entertainment keeps things exciting.
  • A solid selection of cold beers, cocktails, and tasty food options, plus perks like HD screens and a function area for private hires, make it a go-to spot for unwinding after a long day.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's strictly adults-only with no children allowed at any time, which might put off those looking for a family-friendly outing.
  • Things can get pretty packed and noisy on busy nights, especially with the late hours, so it might not be the best for a quiet chat.
  • Food service wraps up fairly early at 9 PM, even though the place stays open much later, which could leave you peckish if you're in for the long haul.

The King Edward VII is a welcoming Blackpool pub with cheap drinks and a lively feel, but it can get chaotic when things heat up.

  • Friendly staff and welcoming locals who make you feel right at home, like you're part of the crowd.

  • A few comments suggest it's not the cleanest or safest place, which could put you off if you're fussy about that.

Yates in Blackpool is a cracking pub for a fun night out with mates, boasting friendly vibes, decent grub, and top-notch sports viewing, though watch out for the occasional food slip-up.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • The food hits the spot with options like mixed grills that customers rave about, and it's all reasonably priced with daily specials.
  • It's a brilliant spot for catching live sports with loads of screens and a projector, plus they have great deals on cocktails.
  • The atmosphere is lively, especially in the evenings with DJs and live music, and it's in the heart of Blackpool town centre for easy access.
  • They've got thoughtful touches like being dog-friendly, having a beer garden, and being accessible with features for everyone.
Areas for Improvement
  • Food quality can be hit or miss, with some folks having to send dishes back because they weren't cooked properly.
  • It might get a bit too hectic on busy nights, which could make it feel overwhelming if you're after a quiet pint.
  • While the drinks are affordable, the overall vibe leans more towards high-energy fun, so it might not suit those wanting a relaxed chat.

The Counting House is a cosy Blackpool gem with cracking deals and a friendly buzz, but keep an eye out for the occasional service snag to make the most of your visit.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food deals are an absolute bargain – like that £5 hamburger, which is cheaper than grabbing something from the high street chains, making it a wallet-friendly spot for a bite.
  • The staff are genuinely lovely and go the extra mile; stories of them keeping the kitchen open late or being chatty and friendly really warm you up.
  • It's got a fantastic atmosphere with a historic vibe, right in the heart of Blackpool, offering cracking sea views and a welcoming spot for families and dogs alike.
  • They show live sports, which is brilliant for catching the big games, and the pub's got nice touches like a beer garden and WiFi to make your visit more enjoyable.
Areas for Improvement
  • There can be pricing slip-ups, like getting charged a bit extra for drinks, which might leave you scratching your head over the till.
  • The menu's shrunk a tad, with fewer options for lighter meals and some complaints about smaller portions, so it might not hit the spot if you're after variety.
  • Wait times for food can drag on, especially when it's busy, though the staff do let you know upfront, which is fair but still a bit of a drag.
  • It gets heaving at peak times, leading to mixed experiences, so you might find it a challenge to relax if it's packed out.

The Flying Handbag is a lively LGBTQ+ haven in Blackpool with top-notch entertainment and wallet-friendly grub, though the DJ might not always play your favourites.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming and inclusive, making it a safe and celebratory space for everyone, especially in the LGBTQ+ community.
  • They've got brilliant entertainment with resident DJs and fabulous drag queens like Miss Amber, who bring plenty of banter and keep the energy high.
  • Affordable food and drink options are a highlight, with cracking deals like Sunday lunches starting from just £7.95 – perfect for a budget-friendly bite.
  • The staff are friendly and attentive, ensuring you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • It's got a modern, refreshed look after the 2020 refurb, with clean facilities and a handy location near Blackpool North train station.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some evenings, the DJ might stick to older tunes and ignore requests, which can feel a bit frustrating if you're after something more current.
  • There have been occasional gripes about lost items, like one person mentioning a missing jumper, so it's worth keeping an eye on your belongings.
  • While the overall vibe is great, not every night hits the mark, and the music selection isn't always to everyone's taste.

Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a bit hit-and-miss at the bar, with waits that sometimes feel longer than they'd ought to, especially when it's busy.
  • A few reviewers mentioned staff seeming distracted or prioritising regulars, which can leave you feeling a tad overlooked.
  • Vegetarian choices lean towards the spicy side, so if that's not your thing, you might have to hunt for milder options.
  • The outdoor beer garden has potential but could do with some sprucing up to make it more inviting.

The Manchester is a lively pub on Blackpool's Promenade that's spot on for families and sports fans, with a solid 3.8 rating, though it's got its rough edges like occasional cleanliness issues.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's a fantastic spot for families, with a dedicated family bar upstairs that includes a ball pool for the little ones, a mini arcade, and even great seafront views to keep everyone entertained.
  • If you're into sports, they've got loads of screens showing everything from Premier League footie to rugby and Formula 1, making it a proper haven for match days.
  • The beer garden is one of the biggest on the promenade, ideal for soaking up the sun with a cold pint and enjoying the Blackpool vibes.
  • Prices are moderate, so you can grab some solid traditional pub grub without breaking the bank, and they've got options for private hire if you're planning a get-together.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some folks have mentioned the staff can be a bit off-putting at times, which takes away from the overall experience if you're hoping for a warm welcome.
  • Cleanliness is a mixed bag – a few reviews point out dirty tables, sticky floors, and even a fusty smell, so it might not always feel as fresh as you'd like.
  • The atmosphere can vary; it's buzzing for parties and events, but if it's quiet, it might come across as a bit dated or less inviting for a relaxed visit.
