Bell and Bottle in Fylde

Great staff, lovely food, very well priced

Really enjoyed steak n ale pie, lots of meat in the pie. Chips could be better as a typical frozen chip. Lasagne delicious, tasted very homemade. 30% off main meals so excellent value.

Lovely beef roast dinner today Definitely will be back 👍

Great food at reasonable prices

Do not bother going here. Slow service and best of all not all food on menu in stock. they have offered us 30% off and they couldn`t get us back. Advice, check out Joseph Holt pubs, fantastic. try waters edge at Lytham st Annes maybe the staff from the Bell and Bottle should go and see how far behind the curve they really are..shame for a marsden inn.

Delicious food, great service and good value

Very nice food pub, well worth a visit

Lovely first visit, we will be back

We’ve been going to this Pub for a few years now and noticed a decline in service and quality but after todays visit, I learned this pub is under new management and wow! They’ve turned the place around. Great food, piping hot and brought out very quickly. The manager introduced himself and took time to sit with us and inform us of his plans for the place. We’ll definitely be back and look forward to the changes the manager is bringing in.

Bell and bottle Newton Preston under new management. Dale and his team offer a warm friendly welcoming The food served and enjoyed at a reasonable price.. Regular discount offers in place Pleasant atmosphere Thankyou team

Really nice place, cozy and welcoming. All the staff were really helpful and attentive. Food was great, cost was reasonable, can't fault it.

Amazing friendly and spot on food

So nice to see our local busy once more. Good food,friendly and attentive staff, really hope it continues. Great to have a pub and restaurant offering this with various entertainment nights too. Dale you're doing a great job.

This pub has been through several managers since I moved to the area some 5 years ago. However, none have had a greater impact than Dale and his family. His positive attitude towards customer service has clearly invigored all the staff to deliver a first-rate service from meals at the table and drinks from the bar. His efforts to bring in more customers by hosting events such as quizzes, free pool and even live music hasn't gone unnoticed. I thoroughly recommend a visit to the Bell and Bottle to experience for yourself what Dale and his team are delivering to customers whether it be a family meal out or a watering stop for Sunday dog walkers, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Quick bite to eat, pleasant staff, clean premises, service efficient...The best mac & cheese I've eaten in any pub/restaurant my hubby had mixed grill which was excellent, overall value for money. Would recommend 👌

Lovely polite staff, nothing was too much to ask for. Excellent food, excellent service, great waiting times, great prices. Very clean, very welcoming. Great selection of activities for children have been introduced. Noticed adverts for a good range of events, good parking facilities.

So good that the Bell and Bottle is busy once again. Food was hot and tasty, quick friendly service despite being busy. Will be back again soon.

Absolutely delicious food and it was piping hot and fresh 👌🏽 will defiantly be going again very soon 😍😍😍😍

Bit quiet x food lovely catch up with cousins 💕 💓

Warm and friendly welcome by Robin. Great service and the food was lovely. Will be calling in again.

Excellent meal and a fabulous way to spend our anniversary.

Went in after new takeover to see if there was any improvements. Two bar staff ignored us when we walked in as they tried to serve one customer a lemonade. Waited a few minutes at the bar then just walked out. Such a shame having a pub on our doorstep but it has nothing going for it. Overpriced beer, frozen microwaved food, no atmosphere and staff that can't be bothered.

Great pub lunch to finish off the week

Brilliant went last night really enjoyed it its worth a visit xxx

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

Been here loads and will continue to come brilliant in every way always feel like one of the family nothing is too much

We were using the charging pods inthe back of the car park.

We came in to meet family for a birthday. Fully enjoyed the roast dinner. All meals came out at the same time, even though we was a large party. Staff were very helpful and friendly. A really nice and relax atmosphere. Will definitely book again for our next visit. Thank you 😊

Best pub going to Blackpool staff so well polite the food comes out hot not cold like some restaurants or pubs this has been our second time visiting this pub it is amazing and I would recommend it to friends family

Whilst working in the area, I thought I would try this pub for a lunch with colleagues. Service was excellent, speedy and efficient, great quality beverages and good food, well cooked, tasty, looked good on the plate and enjoyed by all. See you next time.

Nice little pub, atmosphere is laid back and relaxed, staff were welcoming and friendly however, the food was extremely poor. As we were short on time and I was starving I didn’t complain at the time so just ate my steak but it was overcooked and tasteless. I’d recommend visiting as I say, it’s a lovely little place, dog friendly too but the food unfortunately let it down.

Just stopped for a drink with a few friends on our scooters. Lovely pub and the service was excellent. The stsff were very friendly and cheerful

Great place to stop on the way to Lytham. We come over that way every so often, Love the little changes and the food was very tasty! Good job. Will definitely be back!

Went in to look at space for a group dinner and they have a great function area! While there checked out the food and it was very nice. They were very friendly and flexible as we aren't yet sure if it will be a buffet or a sit down meal, they said they would do whatever we decided on. Thankyou to Dale for being so accommodating!

Very nice pub friendly staff they so well managed its the best pub in UK going to Blackpool I would definitely recommend this to anyone that's not been there before to go and visit it the bar mandes was so kind too I would definitely be going here now more time just to be in a happier pub also it looks like dogs are welcome to is just so stunning pub I would gave it 10/10 and more thank you so much for the love food and staff there

Very friendly atmosphere, great staff and good food and drink.

Short version this. Good food, sensibly priced & excellent service again. Been coming here for many years, seems to go up and down regarding food and service, but just now it is very good.

Great service and atmosphere, very friendly team

There was a party on at the time in the lounge area with live music. The lady singing was excellent and the bar staff were friendly and helpful. Great experience

Visited for drinks and was pleasantly surprised by the improvement since my last visit. Kayla in particular was exceptional, happy to help, efficient and smiling. She is like a breath of fresh air. Thank you Kayla for making my visit so pleasurable.

Frankly this was a soulless experience. We came because we had our first date here 44 years ago (just celebrated 40 years of marriage) so were glad to see the Bell & Bottle was still there. The place is tired and dated. Table was tacky due to the varnish on it being old and peeling. Menus were sticky. Ordered using the QR code as no one came to serve. Husband had steak & ale purchase he said was ok. I had sirloin steak medium. Tough, tasteless and gristly. Presentation dreadful, all served on a plate with peas swimming in water, cheap oven chips, cold pre cooked tiny sliced mushrooms and a sauce described loosely as “Diane” for an extra £2 🤷‍♀️ the place is run by young staff who were polite but didn’t come near us to clear the table or ask if we wanted anything else. I took half the steak home to give to my dog and left everything else. No one asked why? Sadly given our first very happy visit all those years ago this trip down memory lane was diabolical!

The Scampi, Fish and Lasagne was liked and enjoyed so recommended and would return here if in the area again.

Nice lunch freshly cooked .Very pleasant and helpful staff

Well we're do I start! Was more or less empty when we arrived for a snack to eat..Tables grubby and sticky ..ordered a prawn cocktail. I mean you can't get that wrong,, can you? .My son had chicken wings with peri sauce. Side of chips. Took ages to arrive but thought ohhhh well its going to be good..My sons was served in a miniature tin pie dish and to my amazement as was my prawn cocktail! Prawns a mere few sat on a mere mixture of old onions lettuce and cucumber gone off. Absolutely disgusting to look at. 1 slice of old stale granary bread .Think been left out as was starting to toast itself. PRAWNS didn't look good so I decided to just not try. I felt insulted. Sons chicken wing were ok and frozen chips arrived ok. Lol what on earth is going on. More staff than customers. Did complain to staff sitting down instead of cleaning grubby sticky tables.No reply just stares.yukkkkkkķk avoid. I wish I could add a picture to show you.

Great food and staff. Caters for people with allergies which is much appreciated.

The service and staff were very polite. Joe was exceptional. Very polite, very friendly and chatty, patient, attentive and very helpful. He stood out as caring for his customers and making sure their visit was spot on. The Bombardier cask ale was in excellent condition and so it seems the staff are keeping a very good cellar and looking after the cask ale well. Whilst we were a large group of 10, the speed of service was great and all of our food came out in good time, even with quite a few other visitors having sit down meals. The food was good and we all enjoyed our meals. Overall we had a very pleasant visit and came back again two days later as a result, whilst we were on holiday nearby.

On Friday there are no offers so you’re going to get your pants pulled down on cost straight off. Won’t make that mistake again. Music wasn’t too loud so that was good. Fish was ok and quite tasty but only a few chips and dismal mushy pea portion. No bread and butter - well, it only costs £13 odd - I’m obviously expecting the earth. Cokes not unlimited like in Toby Carvery so that is rubbish as well. For nearly 14 quid I want to have need to look out over the chip pile and not feel hungry afterwards. Stop with the tight portions. WW2 is over.

Stopped in for lunch,well pleased,great food,good service and ok prices. Would deffo go again,but not local.

This is from my 8 year old son..."the staff were really nice. The food was really good."

Absolutely fantastic place staff are amazing and very friendly

To say I’m disappointed is an understatement. Don't bother asking for a large Sunday roast (more meat and an extra Yorkshire pudding) they aren't doing them. Defys logic! However if I am honest don't waste your money. Roast potatoes not home made straight out of a bag and soggy. Not sure if the turkey was recently connected to a bird. The peas were the best thing on the plate. The chef needs to add some flavour to their dishes. I know they have to reduce salt but even adding salt there was no flavour. Beef was OK. Yorkshire puddings are not difficult yet appeared to have previously been frozen and were strangely chewy. Had anyone bothered to come and ask how our meal was I would have told them all of the above. A place like that on a Sunday should be bouncing and I'm afraid there is clearly a reason why it's not.

Roadworks & traffic jams on M55 motorway! So took a detour and found this wonderful pub! Spacious car park! Pleasant staff on the bar & very tasty loaded fries with draught guiness of course!!! Good prices too! Will call again when visiting Blackpool!!!

The staff are pleasant enough but I don't agree with having to get your own menu cutlery and condiments , but it appears that a few pubs are going down this route. I might be old-fashioned but we think when you are seated in the dining area you expect to be served. Food is of the usual pub franchise quality nothing to get excited about but it is edible The drinks were two pint bitter Shandy's And a latte coffee which was all good. When we were there it was mid-afternoon and the place was quiet..

We had a roast dinner here today the food was piping hot beautifully cooked nicely presented .I had roast beef my husband roast chicken it was the nicest Roast we have had in a long time staff always polite and welcoming well worth a visit for a tasty meal thankyou .

We, as a party of 5 come here, as ex colleagues to meet every 3 months. Tried out the QR code for the first time, we had great fun. Disappointed that the mac and cheese wasn't on. All the other dishes were thoroughly enjoyed. Lots of extras to add on, when ordering but disappointed that I couldn't ask for extra custard. All told, we had an excellent night.

Excellent service and very friendly staff overall we had a fantastic experience. Thank you all.

Food good lovely young lady serving but very quiet so did get quick service 👍

Very warm greeting Excellent service Amazing food 10/10

It’s not cheap if you don’t eat it. Two meals purchased both poor.

Excellent food and service from David and the team. Spicy burger ace

Chicken kebab was inedible, cutting the 'meat' and it was just fat. Did receive a refund but I am still hungry as I did not eat a meal. Manager (I guess) did say he wanted the menu to be changed to reflect this as it is, apparently, a chicken thigh. I cannot recommend this place as, in my opinion, it is not worth recommending. I won't be returning

Food was okay,not to big a portion but depends how hungry you are

Unfortunately not a great 2nd experience here for my family and friends even with a 30% discount code that came through the post. Multiple items were out of stock, staff were unable to customise a child's meal and the wait for food was pretty awful 40 mins plus. The food isn't of any decent quality and overall the the price paid didn't match the experience, I felt that I had overpaid. Unlikely to return unless something noticeable changes.

Great food, great staff and great atmosphere

We went for my dad's birthday who is in recovery of lung cancer he really enjoyed his meal and thank you for making him feel special with a candle in his desert much appreciated we will definitely be back many thanks Denise

What a shame! The young lady behind the the bar was doing the work of 2/3 people as she was on her own. This caused a family to quit waiting and just left! The lass did her best with a big smile and cracked on flush faced. The food. I had lasagne which unfortunately was just awful! No flavour or substance to it at all I'm afraid but the chips were OK. Decaf coffee is of the instant type, again not good. It's such a pity to have a large eatery just down the road from us that operates on a shoe string especially at holiday times. It always looks busy when we pass and so we decided to try it..., I doubt very much we'll be back. Great for a quick pint and a very basic bite to eat (if your not in any rush) let me but defiantly not in my book for a decent meal. I havnt tried the carvery as it wasn't on but I have heard its pretty good?? Apologies for the down review guys but it is what it is on this occasion, as we found it.

Went for lunch today and a young lady member of staff was juggling everything from the bar, to orders, to serving on her own. She did amazingly well and we actually didn't wait long for our food. There were,however, one or two customers who despite being able to see she was doing her best ,decided to complain about a wait and making negative comments very loudly as they walked past....totally unnecessary and only done as they were ' expecting' a long wait when they could see it was busy and only this young lady covering....wait wasn't any longer than what would be usual for a pub .....so for us everything was great and we were happy with our service.

Was looking forward eat here on Friday 3rd May around 7:30pm.After bit of queue jumping by locals which the bar staff didn't seem interested in I was then informed I would have a minimum 40 minute for my food and that's before I had even given my order. I didn't hear anyone else being advised of this and therefore me and my wife walked out and went to the Ribble Pilot instead.

Read reviews was unsure whether to visit Bell & Bottle, so decided to go and see for ourselves it was fantastic, very welcoming on entry, girls on duty on Tuesday 28th May were amazing never stopped always busy,polite. Sat at table 4 ordered 2 mixed grills, cooked to perfection, piping hot, big thank you to chef and kitchen staff. Been going to Leafage for 20 years but no more definitely be returning to Bell & Bottle again,again and again great place, clean absolutely loved it Thank you Julie & Paul

It's been [at least 12] years since we've dined here because the food quality declined. It used to be such good food. Unfortunately we didn't enjoy our revisit. Although our meals looked appetizing when they arrived we soon found them to be lacking. The chicken on my open wrap was slimy dark meat which was hidden by a loaf of watercress and sauces and the fries were shrivelled up, dry and rick hard. I left most of my meal. My partner's pie had stodgy pastry and he said it was very bland without much meat, the peas hard. He didn't eat all of his either. We won't be visiting again. Very disappointed. Staff pleasant enough. Surroundings are clean and tidy. Plenty of parking and wheelchair accessible.

Not the best to be honest, wanted a mega mixed grill was told they only had the normal mixed grills. Asked for a jacket potato with mine instead of chips which was totally zapped in the microwave and was a shrivelled joke of a potato, bit of a joke really god knows what the chef was thinking. Thank god we enjoyed our ice cream sundaes because everything else was average (apart from my jacket potato) which was inedible and hard. Will i return to this Marstons pub, No unfortunately not !!!! We always eat at Marstons pubs and i can honestly say this was the worst one we’ve tried, giving it 3 stars out of 5 is being kind :(

The staff were expecting us and did not hassle us even though 2 people from our party were late. They were lovely and let us know when we had to order food before it was too late. We had a lovely evening.

Lovely little pub out in the middle of nowhere really. Came across it by accident but will definitely find it again soon. Nice staff. Chilled atmosphere

On entrance the establishment looked welcoming. My son got there before me and was age challenged after requesting an alcoholic drink but did not have his ID ( he is 19 years old) which I found appropriate. We ordered at the bar and paid with a receipt requested. Our food came quite quickly and looked appetising. Description of food could be improved as I ordered chicken kebab and it was all fatty thigh meat which I couldn’t eat,I was thinking it was chicken breast. I mentioned this to the lady who collected our plates and she said “sorry”

Great disappointment really. Was looking forward to a good family meal. Some starters and mains unavailable. Got the sharing platters for starters. They were OK but certainly not worth the price at all. Mains were disappointing too. Kids had soggy cucumber sticks we had to send back. I upgraded to 'large fries' on the burger. Convinced they weren't large. If they were large, glad I didn't have normal. Wife had a steak but looking at the typical cheap chunky frozen chips, so glad I didn't have it. Service was reasonable but wasn't busy. Some food left over on all plates. All in all, disappointment. Not been for ages. Sadly will be looking elsewhere. 21 may 2024 review.

Pretty good food with good service. Arrived at 7pm and it was very crowded, but soon thinned out and we didn't have to wait too long for our dinners.

Service was ok, welcome not brilliant

Had to wait to get to bar in small queue to find our reserved table. Ordering food and drink was good. Food came out in timely manner. Mushrooms were very over cooked. Also our steaks were requested as medium and both came out on the rare side. Both of these we fed back at the time.

Beautiful venue lovely stàff too xx

A great place to stop for a meal or just a drink. Whereas this is a chain pub, the staff are lovely and it has a great atmosphere.

Nice “old” feeling. Friendly waiters/waitresses. Sticky tables😉

Ordered mix grill chicken fillet looked like it was boiled no eggs

Perhaps the best Sunday roast in a 40-mile radius of Blackpool and Preston, no joke, tried many and keep coming back again and again. Decided to try on a weekday (Friday, alas no specials, but check out their site / menu for weekday specials) as I was passing. Same dedication to customer service, amazing staff, and that's every single visit be they packed to the rafters or 3:30 on a Friday afternoon. The food... OMG, the food quality, well duh, why do I come back? Liberal portions, additional bits added (kinda' off menu for that item as long as it's on another item = no problem) It's family-friendly (for all ages) but one of the greatest things outside of staff & food is that it's SPOTLESS... This has to be the cleanest place from floor to ceiling, from door to bathrooms I've encountered outside of a 5 Star restaurant / hotel restaurant. If you are close, pop in. If you're far away, it's worth the drive.

Great pub... you can't go wrong with a Marston's ,, 👍👍 Great food and drink,,, only surpassed by the Staff 😁 lovely friendly people 🍺👍

Staff very welcoming quick service menu plenty of choice food hot and tasty just portions a bit big will definitely be back

Made a last minute decision to come for lunch and so glad we did. Friendly staff greeted us as soon as we walked in and explained how to either order at the bar or order on the app which was very easy to use and convenient. The food came out promptly and was piping hot and delicious! We will definitely be back again, can’t wait to try out the Sunday Roast!!

Function room booked for our wedding reception. The buffet was fabulous. Lots of choice. Everyone complimentary. Bar staff excellent, service prompt. Special thanks to Matt for ensuring everything was relaxed and sorted. Cannot thank them all enough.

Excellent food service and staff

Overall atmosphere was great, the staff were lovely, drinks were great, food was amazing the kitchen staff did a great job, food came out quick and was nicely presented and tasted great. Would defo recommend the desserts, they came out quick and the food runners were super friendly too. Can’t complain, great pub, would visit again soon.

Great service and lovely food. Came for my daughters 12th birthday and staff very helpful putting balloons on table we brought during the day and happy to bring cake out for her. Party of 9 and everyone loved the food ...would recommend

Amazing food and amazing staff. Will be recommending to friends and family

We stopped by on the way past for a bite to eat, it was relatively busy but the staff were friendly. We ordered burgers and were served by Matt who told us about the burger and rink deal which was great value. The food came out pretty quickly and was great, we really enjoyed our burgers. We will definitely be back again soon.

Used to be a pleasant place for family dining Not the same now it has changed to self service.Serve yourself! What next? Cook your own food?? Save on staff, lose on customers.

Boss little place for quite meal

A very pleasant experience having driven past for years and never called in, the staff very friendly and helpful and food excellent, will be revisiting again soon X

Great food and great service would highly recommend

First time here, lovely atmosphere and the staff are great at making me feel welcome. Food fantastic

Great friendly pub, clean, free WiFi, great quiz night. It's a free quiz with a prize for the winners so enjoy the fun

Lovely place, had the Thursday steak deal,(rump) and it was the driest thinnest Inedible thing ever, my friend took it for her dogs, I imagine that they are still trying to chew it to this day..
