Bosco in Fylde

This little Italian restaurant is nestled right in the heart of Lytham square. A warm welcome greeted us as soon as we opened the door. Our table was at the back of the restaurant and was therefore lovely and quiet. Staff were attentive and friendly and we felt right at home. We had a small starter of dough sticks and they were delicious. Our mains were excellent and there was plenty of choice. Pizzas are enormous so beware! Good value for money for the whole menu. I’d definitely recommend them and will visit again soon.

Went this week as a party of 14. Large party's are not always easy for a small restaurant but I have to say the service and food were excellent. House wines were also top class. Everyone agreed it was a great afternoon.

Expensive already but disappointed at being charged extra when I asked for the chicken changed for mushrooms on my pizza. Just wished I hadn't paid the service charge or checked the bill. Would not return for the penny pinching attitude.

Recently visited Lytham saint Anne's looked around for an Italian to eat at. Saw Bosco thought we'd give it ago. Staff greeting on arrival was good, we were a bit early for our booking, this didn't seem to be an issue. Shown to our table. We ordered our drinks and food. the drinks were missing 1 drink, had to ask for the missing drink. To be fare the drink arrived promptly. The rest of the meal came as expected. The meal was ok. Not the best Italian we've had. When it came to the tip we noticed that 10% had been added. We asked if the tip was given to the staff if we paid for this in cash. We were told that the staff didn't get the tip as such. Apparently the staff get a very small amount of this. This is also dependant on the hours worked. The management should be ashamed at this. As a result we asked for the tip to be removed. Shame good staff financially miss out for their hard work. Will not go back here again. Management taking money from the serving staff. NO NO!

I haven't been to Bosco for a number of years, I took my Daughter last Sunday for Pizza, it was excellent. We arrived slightly earlier than our booking, it wasn't a problem. Lytham was very busy that day due to the 1940's weekend being in full swing. We where sat down and ordered our food quickly. The Pizza's where wonderful, I had a Fiorentina and my daughter shared a Lytham Square, the pizza's where perfect. The venue became very busy with older clientele and the staff had to contend with people walking in off the street to use the facilities, the staff coped with a smile, although it did become annoying for us, just because of where we sat in the walkway to the toilets and the older non patrons who aren't very good on their feet continually loitered around our table to use the toilets and peer over our shoulders and comment at what we where eating. My daughter finished off with the Brownie Sunday, she was very impressed. Not overly expensive, and in general a very good experience, I wouldn't hesitate to go to Bosco again, hopefully its not 1940's weekend next time :)

Just moved to Lytham & was recommended Bosco. Poor first course of Calamari (chewy) & mushrooms (like bullets) put us on the back foot, but main courses? Wow, stunning. Maitre D also reduced bill as a gesture of goodwill. Good experience.

Went for dinner before lytham festival, we hadn’t booked but they managed to squeeze us in, food was lovely with great service.

It might be because I've never eaten a calzone with a knife and fork, or it might be the seaside town setting, but this was one of, if not the best, calzone I've ever eaten. Huge, and stuffed full of veg and cheese, without being too heavy. Fully delicious, and lovely staff too! 10/10 I'll deffo be back!

Came last night for my friends 30th, we’ve been coming here for years and it never disappoints! Food always consistent, good quality and tastes fab… plus the staff are always incredibly lovely and attentive!

Been coming for years, menu hasn't changed much in that time. Food good, not fab but good. Haven't been for awhile so due a visit. Staff attentive, service abit rushed, food still good but portion size no where near, size wise, as it was even a year ago, yet prices have risen! suppose a sign of the times but it was disappointing to pay more money for what seemed like half the portion we used to receive...

Having eaten at Boscos several times in the past I have to say things have gone downhill since my last visit four years ago. My son , who is a chef and had also previously eaten there decided to take me for lunch the day before Mother’s Day. What a disappointment. The first thing we noticed was the rip off drinks menu compared with the food menu. The same drinks that were cheaper on the initial menu were ALL more expensive! Then our food arrived, as I mentioned earlier my son is a chef, he chose the lasagne with a tomato garlic bread. I ordered a pizza with chicken sweetcorn and jalapeños. Let’s start with the meat lasagne shall we, there was no meat virtually! Just lots of tasteless tomato sauce, when the waitress asked if we were enjoying it so far he decided to be truthful. They did offer him something else but he declined. My pizza was awful, tasteless with picked vinegar jalapeños! The cheese was tasteless and the base was not up to an Italian restaurant standard. Probably one of the worst meals I’ve had in a long time. The price didn’t match the quality! But hey that’s Lytham for you! Fur coat and no nickers! Don’t waste your money!

On arrival, the door was opened for us which was a nice touch. We had creamy garlic mushrooms which were so tasty. We both had a vegetarian pizza, it was very nice on the whole, probably could just benefit from a few extra roasted / chargrilled veg. Very pleasant service from all who served us. I would go again.

This place doesn’t listen to its customers. The pizzas have little taste and I’m sure the chef isn’t tasting what he serves. I went here because others wanted to try it and I was curious if they got better. They haven’t. Food and service still substandard.

Varied pizza, pasta and risotto menu. Attentive staff. All the food was delicious. Very good value bambino menu for children up to age of 12 - the portion sizes from this menu are huge!

We booked a table for six and we’re not disappointed with anything, the food was very good and the service was excellent, would recommend and will definitely return, thanks for a wonderful evening

Love Bosco. Staff friendly and attentive. The food is amazing. We had the calazone and it is so full of flavour ans fillings. My children had the children's meal which is super value for money. I recommended it to a family from Ormskirk who was in the area as it is by far the best. Advisable to book at busy times as popular. Well done Bosco team!

Great service! Delish food!! I had the chicken mushroom tagliatelle and cannot recommend enough! Will be back x

Awful Again! This place disappoints again. Bad tasting food and where the chef clearly still is not tasting what he sends out. I have been here before and it’s been bad but had to go again as it was a friends birthday and they like it. However, they also thought it was bad and will not be going back. I expect an inappropriate reply from the owner as they like to blame the reviewer rather than accept they may be serving cr&p.

Excellent meal with family visiting from the midlands. Food was freshly cooked and was delicious we had great service too

Pleasant service and outside seating to enjoy a fabulous lunchtime Tuna Salad Nicoise (with suitable wine to accompany). Good coffee too.

Sadly this was definitely not the same place we used to visit regularly when we lived in the area. Service was very good but the food was not good to say the least. The pizza was nothing special & to be honest I have had better from a supermarket & not costing £16 ! The two pasta dishes that were supposed to contain chicken had literally 3/4 small cubes in the dish. Expensive £99 for just 1 pizza & 3 pasta dishes that where poor

Absolutely brilliant, fabulous food, fantastic service and excellent prices, what a nice surprise this was for us to try while visiting Lytham. Thanks very much, highly recommended

The best Restaurant in Lytham. Gluten Free options galore too and all of the finest quality. Service and Food fantastico

Love Boscos always have, we visited on a Sunday with friends and the food was as per usual very good, the main reason it only gets a four star this time is the price of there wines which I do enjoy but with prices between £25/30 a bottle or £9 a glass I won’t be buying any wines from here again it’s beers for me, sad cause I love this place, to be fair to Boscos I would add this seems to be the same in some other Lytham restaurants at the moment.

Great Italian food and good service. Central location means always busy and food is freshly prepared, little pricey but well worth it.

Came for our 46th wedding anniversary, greeted with a glass of fizz and a lovely complimentary dessert! The attention to detail was lovely and the food beautiful

With an wide range of eateries in the vicinity we were delighted with our choice of Bosco. Always on the lookout for gluten free options my gf penne bolognaise was cooked to perfection and tasted delicious. Seated outside, in the shade, on a very hot...

Visited yesterday with family for lunch our choice of food was delicious the pizzas and pasta faultless even the 3 yr old agreed hurrah ! One of the best places to eat in lytham

Food ok Garlic bread delicious A little pricy for both food portions and the drink prices too. Has indoor and outdoor seating in the lovely square

Second visit here…. Had to experience the pizza Florentina again & just as good as the first time. Husband had baked pasta which he also pronounced excellent. Shared a tiramisu ( big mistake.. one apiece next time). Good coffee too. Ate outside in the square...

Terrible service and food. Great to see young people wanting to work but they do need training first! Young girl didnt know the menu so could not answer any of our questions and guy wearing blue jeans and black tshirt wasnt interested in helping her....

Great lunch, with attentive service and appetising food. The Pizzas cooked in open kitchen, just what I love to see. Good location in Lytham. Will go back

I can not recommend enough. Superb service from the moment we walked in. We visited with friends who commented on the extensive menu and great choice of wines. Food was exceptional

Absolute garbage food. I live in lytham so to write a review like this gives me no pleasure whatsoever. We ordered Pizza and a salad. The service was garbage as we were being served by kids of 16 and under so there wasn't really a...

We ate here on a Saturday evening as a party of 6 adults and 3 young kids (aged 4-8). We had pre booked and the staff had put us at a great table at the rear of the restaurant where there was plenty of room...

From start to finish this little gem of a restaurant surpassed expectations. Greeted at the door, bustling atmosphere and nice large tables with minimum clutter. Super tasty food delivered very quickly , and it was easy to get the bill ( a pet hate of...

Went to Bosco on Saturday night with family and was really impressed with the quality of the food, friendly, efficient service, range of dishes and reasonable prices. We’ve eaten at a few places in Lytham recently and this is the best!

A consistently good Italian restaurant, the food is always well cooked and tasty. I love the Lasagna here and the spaghetti Diavola. The pizza’s are also lovely. I don’t think I’ve had anything I didn’t like. It’s a lovely restaurant, run by a very friendly...

Our first visit... but definitely not our last. Super round table in the window... great start! Very warm welcome - all staff without exception were great! Huge jug of water... again great... didn't push bottled/sparkling water. Wine - very reasonable prices Food- all 4 of...

Location good, Ambience good, Staff good Food poor We ordered 5 different items but were disappointed with all of them. Wine was 300% more expensive and wasnt great either. Waste of time

This has always been our ‘Go To’ Italian restaurant when in Lytham. However. We will sadly now be having a rethink.. The food, service and atmosphere was all up to the usual high standard. However, charging £35.50 for 4 drinks is excessive! £10 each for...

We booked for lunch today, I have to say the blonde waitress who wore glasses was lovely. We were a party of 5 and were seated at the back in the far right corner, it's very squashed and if anyone needed the loo it was...

Never tire of going out to Bosco Lytham. The manager makes every person feel special and always makes a fuss of you. Food is excellent and staff are friendly

Can’t go wrong here , excellent pizzas, chilli prawns, lasagna all delicious a regular fir our lunch or dinner

Amazing from the start to finish, was greeted by the lovely restaurant manager as we walking through the door. Also a lovely waitress seated us and taken our drink oder while we decide what food we would like. all the staff had smile on their...

Staying in St Annes for a couple of days and we had been recommeded Bosco and it delivered, great food and service

We have been eating here 2 to 3 times a week over the last 6 weeks, as we were visiting a relative in the area who was very ill. Every meal we have had was excellent and the Bosco always has a great atmosphere. Would...

Met friends at the restaurant which has a really cosy feel and enjoyed a lovely meal served by friendly staff. I will visit next time I'm in the area

Due to my wife recovering from Pancreatic Cancer she is unable to eat full dishes. It was absolutely no problem here. We had one starter, main and dessert. with two plates. This meant she was able to taste the delights of a three course meal....

We were looking for somewhere to lunch and fell upon Bosco. From the minute we arrived we were treated extremely well. Our waiter was very attentive and we didn't have to wait long for our food and drinks to arrive.The food was brilliant and it...

Our favourite restaurant in Lytham delivers yet another outstanding experience. Out with our friends for lunch the meal and staff were of their usual high standard. Staff meticulously helpful and friendly with food being delicious from the Calamari, risotto, pasta and the Lytham pizza. Thanks...

Had dinner at this Italian restaurant in the centre of Lytham for the first time whilst on a short break with family, and what a revelation! Excellent food and service In a room with a tremendous atmosphere. Our visit was on a Tuesday evening, the...

Be aware that they add service charge to the bill without making customers aware!! We paid full bill without checking and then left tips in cash on the table not aware that we already left it on the card. We didnt realise until we got...

Had very good crispy tomato garlic bread as starter followed by sea bass for main course, which came with potatoes and side salad..Sea bass was good and reasonable size.. Would have liked more (or bigger) potatoes and would have been nice to have had vegetables...

Booked a table for 6 a week prior to visiting Lytham for the 1940s weekend and at the last minute we requested a further 2 seats for friends who wanted to join us, which the staff made available at short notice and even got back...

Friendly and helpful staff.. ordered food and my husband didn’t want meatballs in his calzone- no problem, no raised eyebrows to the request.. clean toilets.. would return when next we visit.. reasonably priced - I had the spaghetti carbonara..

Very nice lunch with a hearty portion and tasty portion of spaghetti bolognese. The Tomato pesto garlic bread was super What particularly impressed was the service..super staff ..we will return for sure

Ideally set right in the heart of Lytham and fantastic position when the sun is out and you can people watch. Booking is very straight forward. Warm welcome at the door for our Saturday Afternoon visit. It was 5.00 and there were 3 other couples...

Went for our anniversary. Ordered ham and mushroom pizza which came with hardly any cheese and two big slices of prosciutto ham just placed on either side. Base was very soggy. Also ordered garlic bread with cheese but our fault we didn’t read description properly...

Popped into Lytham with a friend for lunch today. We both had the most delicious pear salad we have ever tasted. All the staff were lovely, friendly and attentive . This was my second visit and I will most definitely return soon. Good coffee too!

Came here for dinner prior to going to the festival and picked here because of the ratings. Location is not on the sunny side in the evening but that have a place in the square which has sun until about 5pm. Very good service considering...

Lovely food, good atmosphere and staff were friendly and efficient. Great service Definitely recommend.

We had a lovely table in the window to celebrate our daughter’s birthday. Fabulous food and service, as usual. Bosco is consistently good and nothing is too much trouble.

A very nice restaurant in the centre of Lytham. The menu isn't too big but as vegetarians we found a number of dishes that were available. The pear salad was absolutely delicious. We misunderstood one of the dishes we ordered, this was changed & we...

Tuesday evening and we enjoyed truly delicious pasta washed down with a delightful house white. The reasonable bill made it taste even better!

Visiting Lytham with friends for a birthday weekend. Lovely central location but can’t believe that charged £1.00 for a dash of lime in a pint of lager.

Friendly greeting and service staff. Food was good but possibly overpriced for what we had. Bruschetta was a little basic! Lasagna was very very hot! Salmon risotto was very good! Would revisit again as we enjoyed the evening.

We visited with family for a pre theatre dinner. We enjoyed our pizzas and calzones and had some good wine and gin and tonic. The restaurant is quite small so becomes cramped quite quickly. However we managed to find a table with sufficient room for...

We love it here . Food is amazing. Staff great..the only criticism is the seating as it's too squashed up. I understand seating area and tables per head but possibly needs re evaluating.

My wife and I returned to bosco after over two years. We were very happy with the service and the food. I had the sea bass special and my wife had the chicken special, we both enjoyed our meal. We started with garlic bread and...

Salmon bake no salmon in it for 16 pound and very small portion will not be returning for the price there is better In Lytham square for the money

Had a lovely meal in Bosco on a recent stay in Lytham, the restaurant is small and cosy and was full on a Friday night, the tables are close together but we didn't feel squashed in. The food was tasy and we both enjoyed our...

Have had many good meals here before but yesterday’s was so disappointing. The meal, lasagne, was bereft of meat even though it was not advertised as V. Seating was cramped and too impersonal even though only 15% full. I won’t be rushing back if at...

The restaurant its pleasant enough and the staff helpful but the food is very underwhelming, i had the 'SECRET RECIPE ' vodka sauce prawns which turned out to be 4 prawns drenched in neat vodka!!!!

We had an amazing meal at Bosco. We had three courses, which were all delicious - I had garlic bread to start, a pasta dish ‘penne della casa’ and a cheesecake for dessert. The pasta dish was soo tasty especially, but it was all so...

We ate here and loved it. It is clean but be careful they don't ram you in right next to others when there are plenty of free tables - bit worrying in these times. But the staff are lovely and helpful. The menu is great...

Had a lovely meal and service was very good. It’s quite expensive especially the drinks but please don’t add the service charge on. It’s embarrassing having to say no as we don’t agree to being recommended how much to pay. The customer should decide.

Lovely restaurant with good quality food and service. I had with mussels as a main course which were great and there was plenty of them. The pizzas looked great to. If we returned to Lytham we would defiantly visit again.

A re-union of friends, 6 in total. This restaurant was recommended. I was a bit worried reading many of the reviews. From the time we arrived to leaving we all had a great time. The service was excellent. Food was great and the prices were...

On a recent visit to Bosco we were surprised and disappointed to find they have now added a service charge to your bill. Totally unnecessary, and just symptomatic of greedy businesses making extra profit. Note - a tip is given for good service and at...

Uninterested staff, mediocre food and lack of interest in feedback.. Draft beer available but not on menu or recommended by staff (when ordering a small bottle of beer 🤔) No social distancing and customers rammed together Cheesecake dessert was a horrible sugary gloopy mess with...

We called in for a coffee mid morning and spotted a lovely pizza at a nearby table . It looked so good that we called back a few hours later for lunch . We were not disappointed. The Lytham Square rustica pizza was fabulous. Very...

Very good food and excellent menu, but service needs attention. Someone brings the dessert menu then does not return. After 10 mins ask to give an order, and am told someone will come. After another 10 minutes we give up. Shame, as all was good...

An Italian restaurant in the centre of Lytham with very good food, attentive staff and excellent service.

Myself and my family had a lovely meal, the staff were amazing and nothing was too much trouble. We all really enjoyed our meals and the food was amazing. My daughters had so much cheese grater on their pasta they were in heaven, but they...

Enjoyed an evening with my wife and daughter at this restaurant. Food was very tasty, wine was okay and table service attentive and friendly. Worth a visit if in Lytham.

Table in square lovely day to sit outside lovely polite staff had the garlic bread and chicken and mushroom risotto best we had for a long while it was exceptional no rush will be back again

Met Frieda here for dinner, adults and teens and thoroughly enjoyed our Meals, i especially loved the tomato and red onion salad, amazing. Great reviews for all the pizza, desserts and the service was excellent. Thank you

Due to Covid lockdowns etc, this was our first meal out for 11 months!To me, the tables were a little close together, but suppose in a weeks time that there will be no social distancing.Anyway, as always, a good tasty pizza was enjoyedWill we go back - YES !

Back at bosco after 9 months, it was lovely to just eat and drink outside in such a great atmosphere. We will be back soon.thestaff were very friendly and welcoming as always.

I can’t ever speak highly enough about this place, the food, the staff, everything is always amazing, I love coming here

Visited Bosch for lunch this weekend, they have a lovely seating area in the square. Very good menu choices. I had the chicken and mushroom risotto and my fellow diners had pizzas. We all enjoyed our meals.

2nd time here since lockdown ended. First was a lunchtime. Staff couldn't do enough for us after wanting to move to a table outside in the sun. The food was simple but delicious. 2nd time was a family of 5 evening meal. Starters mains and dessert were all served in s timely manner. Food was lovely and even with our eclectic food requirements, Bosco could appease all. Keep up the good work guys.

We had a nice lunch at Bosco. Pretty typical italian menu but everything we had was fresh and tasty. Good options on wine by the glass. Food service was good but took ages to get the bill and then pay.

What can I say favourite Italian out of town !! Love it here & definitely worth a visit ❤️ Can’t wait to visit Lytham so I can eat here again… choice of pastas amazing ! Service great and just a lovely place..

Many people now are vegans.Yes theres still more meat eaters and fish.But many buisness are giving vegans a choice.Large chains etc.And travel to places like manchester . Vegan choice huge!Lytham st annes is on a small scale but if your a vegan beware youll struggle.

Wow what a little gem of a place. We attended as a family and had pizzas. They were absolutely exceptional! Service also brilliant! We will definitely be back.

Called here for a flyer lunch and so glad we did !! Excellent service and the pizza was amazing will definitely be back here in the future ! Don’t pass it by you will regret it.

Lovely restaurant, one of our first meals out post lock down. Went with another couple who had recommended it.Staff were friendly and professional, restaurant although busy felt covid safe!Highly recommend the risotto marinara and the carbonara which my partner and I had, good choice of wines. We will return!

Great service and fantastic pizzas! The whole family enjoyed their meal. The outside seating was well organised and we will definitely be returning.
