Places to eat in Blackpool
Part of the allure of a romantic visit to
Blackpool is that there are dozens of impressive restaurants that exude
just the right mood to enhance that fuzzy warm feeling. Here are some
exquisite choices for that romantic lunch or dinner.
The September
Brasserie on Queen Street is probably
Blackpool's most famous restaurant and a favorite haven of visiting
politicians and celebrities. Under the able guidance of chef Michael
Golowicz, the September Brasserie has been a permanent fixture in the
Good Food Guide ever since it opened for business in 1990. They have
set prices for two and three-course meals.
The White
Tower has a Las Vegas-flavoured restaurant,
on Ocean Boulevard is just the ticket. Located within Blackpool
Pleasure Beach, White Tower gives diners an excellent view of the
promenade as they enjoy modern British cuisine.
Kwizeen
on King Street is relatively new but has already developed a sterling
reputation for its excellent cuisine, highlighted by traditional
Lancashire dishes and seafood. It is ideal for a quiet dinner for two.
The Warehouse is a bit out of the way, tucked into
a small alley called Back Church Street, but it offers an intimate and
elegant setting for dinner.
AJ's
Bistro on Topping Street is a superb small
eatery that exudes plenty of flair and serves only the finest food with
the freshest ingredients. Chief Andrew Reeds has been dishing them out
for over 20 years and isn't afraid to let his imagination run wild.
For a truly spectacular meal, head out to Twelve
at the Marsh Mill Village beside the historic windmill. It may be out
of the way in Thornton, just outside of central Blackpool, but the food
here is truly a gourmet delight and highly recommended by Bib Gourmand.
A former dance studio, Twelve serves traditional food with a modern
twist.
For a taste of something different, Blackpool also
has a host of restaurants that offer Chinese, Italian, Indian, Thai and
even Afro-Carribean cuisine.
The Magic
Lantern on Coronation Street is an
excellent venue for authentic Chinese food. Another favourite among
tourists is the Mandarin Cantonese Restaurant on Clifton Street. They
have been serving Oriental cuisine for over 40 years and have captured
several Gold Awards for serving the best food in the North West.
The Payathai Restaurant on St. Anne's Road is the
place to visit for Thai food. This enchanting place features its very
own waterfall, topped by a wooden bridge, while the staff are dressed
in traditional Thai garments.
Central Blackpool boasts many curry houses for
lovers of spicy Indian food. The most popular are Terry's Balti House
on Clifton Street and Spice of India on Queen Street.
For exquisite Greek cuisine, head to The Med
on Church Street and expect a lot of delicious food and the traditional
smashing of plates. The steaks are the best around, and all served
piping hot.
La Fontana Restaurant on Clifton Street is the
most popular Italian Restaurant in Blackpool and the venue of choice
for pizza and pasta lovers.
Party lovers will appreciate Lagoonda
on Queen Street, where the atmosphere is jumping and the cuisine is
unique. There's no other place for superb Afro-Caribbean dishes like
fruity curry and jerk pork.
Blackpool Pleasure Beach also has its share of
excellent dining venues. If American food and Tex-Mex dishes are what
your heart desires, then there's no better place than Coasters American
Diner.
Any visit to Blackpool would not be complete if
you don't sample the seafood offerings of the locals such as chunky
chips and fine battered haddock or upmarket delights such as shark
steaks, king prawns and oysters. There are many great seafood
restaurants around. The Golden Mile features dozens of fish
restaurants. One of the best of the lot is the world-famous Harry Ramsden's
restaurant on central Promenade. Here's where you will find the very
best fish and chips in all of Blackpool. It's a tourist favorite all
throughout the year.
The Seniors Fish Bar and Restaurant on Normoss
Road is another multi-award winning restaurant. Their menu includes a
wide array of seafood dishes as well as non-seafood and vegetarian
offerings. Seniors was hailed as the resort's best restaurant during
the Blackpool Tourism Awards in 2001. It also ranked among the Top Ten
of the Fish and Chip Shop survey in an independent newspaper in 2002.
Within Blackpool Pleasure Beach, there's The Fish
Inn on Ocean Boulevard, a venue renowned for its excellent battered cod
and shark steaks as well as for a number of imaginative and adventurous
seafood dishes. Nearby, you will find Thor's Place, a restaurant that
looks like a Viking shop and specializes in traditional British fish
and chips.
The Cottage on Newhouse Road is a popular venue
among tourists and locals alike, as well as among visiting celebrities.
Their cod, halibut, haddock, hake and plaice are absolutely superb.
The Seafood Restaurant on Bond Street is a classic
and stylish venue as well as a particular favorite of politicians who
regularly converge here when party conference season comes around. They
offer the very best shellfish, oysters, lobsters and traditional fish
classics as well as a wide array of steaks, grills and chicken dishes.
The 130-year-old Robert's Oyster Bar on the
Promenade is another popular venue for cockles, oysters and mussels.
