Dutton Arms in Blackpool

We ate at the dutton arms the food was terrible overcooked and the plates stayed on.the table for 2 hours nobody asked us how our meal was and we have complained too.the company they don't care about the customer as we was told it was there busiest night off the year since eating in.the dutton.arms me and my wife have been very unwell don't recommend too anyone going out for a meal in this place absolutely rubbish food won't be going back

Staff rude and miserable not one smile in site... On phones behind bar... Happy face happy public house.. won't be coming back whilst in Blackpool

Popped in for a quick drink with the family staff was rude no manners miserable. Not one smile behind the bar on mobile phones and drinking red bull.. don't think we would be coming in again whilst in Blackpool

Great spot on the promenade. Staff were polite and welcoming. Food was excellent quality. Clean, tidy and great views of the promenade.

Visited on Friday afternoon 25 October. The Dutton Arms holds a Casque Marque. Asked for a pint of Wainwright, the only real Ale showing out of two hand pulls. The member of staff tested and calmly announced there was no Ale on. I left. This is not the first time I have visited in recent years but it is becoming more frequent there is no Ale is being served here. Very disappointed

A nice enough looking place, staff friendly. Ordered food and wasn't told there would be any sort of big delay, only found out when someone came from the kitchen to inform the server, 40 minutes, fair enough. Another couple enquired about the delay in getting their food as I was ordering and was told it was a busy pub and they'd just have to wait, bit of tact would have went a long way. Food arrived and it was very sub standard, mixed grill was the worst I've had in sorry to say, chicken dish not much better, kids had burgers which they seemed to like, fish was dry and tasteless with the fish and chips. Pub wasn't particularly busy when we were ordering, about 7pm. Sure it could be nice, nice inside, menu pics look good, staff not overly friendly....maybe should have went to one of the other...many choices.

Food came in a very short time, well presented and hot. Staff we're very friendly and couldn't do enough if you wanted anything.

Got cracking grub from Steven, great atmosphere. 10/10 local pub.

Barely a handful of people in as late afternoon,so timed it right,as leaving got busier, lovely meal had by all,staff very pleasant,ideal place to watch sports .

The Dutton Arms lies on the South Shore in close proximity to the south pier. It is on the main road and features a front beer garden consisting of picnic style tables, sited on artificial grass, shielded from the pavement with clear glass partitions. This area could be made a lot more attractive as it lets the first impression of the pub down from street view. A shame due to inside being good. The bar and eating areas are very spacious. Split into semi-open areas, with TV's showing sport. Food is available and offers on certain meals make this an attractive alternative to others in the near vicinity. Menus are simple and easy to understand, staff did know what was available and did give you the best options. Saying this, during busier times, it was a chore to get served. The bar and eating areas (no eating outside due to sea gulls) are clean and tidy. The toilets are either downstairs for ladies or upstairs for gents (over a dozen stairs). These are clean, well maintained, modern and to a good standard. Bar prices are what you'd expect for a bar on a seafront. On the whole, a great alternative to other run down pubs or 'chain' bars and worth a visit for a family meal.

Excellent food portion size was huge! I had mixed grill and this is the first time I couldn't finish a mixed grill. Great price and excellent quality. In comparison to wetherspoons this is premier league and wetherspoons is non league.

Rude and slow staff , however the atmosphere was great

Food was Excellent very good Atmosphere as well Had our Lunch there for 6 people we all really annoyed our food as well everyone said how lovely the food was 2 people with us we met that day but 4 of us went back the next morning to order our breakfasts which were also lovely excellent 5 star food !!!

Stonegate pub lovely and clean food really good service quick and attentive would recommend it is really clean and bright and airy, it's just a shame that all stonegate pubs were like this one,will be back

Lovely food and great atmosphere bar staff were really friendly

Really nice food from here great prices

I ordered Mac & Cheese, it honestly tasted amazing although wasn't particularly over excited about the balsamic dressing that drenched my entire salad and ruined it. Other than that the food was good, and it was nice to watch the sea from where I ate

Fantastic service Friendly staff Great food

they served us literally frozen desserts 😂 and didn’t warm them up until we took them back

Great sports pub had 3 different football matches on in different parts of thd pub. Good menu. We chose a sharing platter which was cooked well and ample as a meal. Nice friendly staff and good atmosphere. Welcomes well behaved dogs from what we could see.

Great afternoon with family Excellent service

Cracking place to pop in and gave drink, tge food is great

Cheap, cheerful and a Blackpool staple! Dog friendly too!

It was quiet when we visited. It serves decent enough pub grub at reasonable prices. Staff were lovely.

Excellent staff. There are always interesting fun people here. They have a massive beer garden with great views of the promenade. The food here is really great and they have a beer and meal deal here and it's cheaper than blackpools rip off wetherspoons. There is no parking as it's on the prom

Always enjoy coming here, friendly pub, good atmosphere, polite staff

We arrived in Blackpool and was the first place we came to getting off the tram near our hotel, staff where exceptional food was above par and pub seemed clean and well looked after, we went back a further 3 times on our trip and found the same each time no issues friendly family environment and food was more than adequate for the price many thanks

Great friendly place, staff great. Reasonable price for drinks.

Good, nice pub, decent music, clean, tidy,decent staff, nice cold beers, plenty of tables inside, seating outside also, Not tried the food so can't comment. I will return in the future.

In Blackpool on the 17/08/24 walked into the Dutton Arms for a drink and the service from the barmaids was bad. They looked at you like you shouldn't even be in there no smiles nothing just a stern face absolutely horrible experience. Will never be returning to this place ever again.

A decent and large pub, great pub garden at the front to view the promenade and a good link pub from South Shore to the main Central area. Bit pricey though!

Miserable staff attitude problem 😖.

Nice atmosphere. Staff very friendly. Drinks reasonably priced with a good range. Toilets where clean which is a must.

Dogs allowed ... loads of them !!

Nice pub. Good beer. Pleasant staff. Quiet on a Monday afternoon

The food was excellent but they allow dogs and it seems that the only dogs they allow are loud ones and this doesn’t help when we have an autistic son who lates loud noises but the staff are inconsiderate enough to allow them to stay when they are barking every 5 seconds. We tried to go outside to see if it was a bit quieter but the only things we could see were noisy dogs messing about. It ruined my experience completely. Disgraceful.

Had tea after full day on the on PB with 2 sleepy kids. One of few places with nice atmosphere, pretty quick service (even when busy), nice simple pub meals in Blackpool. One of our regular places when visit

Called for a pint last night No atmosphere here .

Amazing food 10/10 mixed grill and chicken and bacon burger extra onion rings and cheesy garlic bread all spot on. Bar staff and atmosphere great thoroughly enjoying would definitely recommend 👌

Excellent meal top quality salad!

Came here on a Friday afternoon with my husband. Nice seating area outside, which was fairly busy as there's not many places to sit along the seafront anymore and just have a quiet drink. Didn't eat here but saw quite a few people going inside for food and drinks. The toilets are nice and clean too!!

The Big Breakfast was great the waiting times can be improved by maybe a sign with waiting times estimate especially for location And Grant's attitude wasn't very friendly which is not great for the customer hence the one star reduction Can do your order from the table which is handy

We stopped here on a Sunday morning for breakfast. We couldn’t get the app to work for ordering from the table. Anyway the breakfast was really nice and perfectly cooked. The tea was perfect but the latte was pretty awful. Still we will be back on our next trip to Blackpool

Went for lunch with our great uncle,and our dog. All made very welcome by the staff. Nice food at reasonable prices. We could relax and chat and look out to the sea.

Pleasant local pub to enjoy views of the prom in the sun and people watching 👀 Not so great when the hen and stag parties rock up! But funny to watch.

If you order on the app, the food won't arrive.

Great atmosphere food was as expected and was enjoyed and arrived quickly! The staff were all friendly and helpful staff , I would like personally highlight the young blonde girl Laura for her exceptional service she is a breath of fresh air very attentive, nothing was too much trouble. She made us all feel very comfortable and had the whole tribe laughing! Excellent experience overall! We will return!

Good atmosphere, decent food, friendly staff

Went there for food with a new puppy as, it was dog friendly BUT ,was far too loud for dog & couldnt hear myself think!!

Really lovely food,served nice and hot. Friendly staff and very helpful. Good for disabled. Situated right opposite the beach. Not far from the pleasure beach.

Food very disappointing ordered the big fish and chips ! Fish not good no butter with the bread ordered cappuccino got plain coffee won’t be back !!

Came here for lunch on my wifes 50th Birthday as she loves Blackpool for Pat's Bingo and the ice creams but we always come here for food. As usual food great, service great and staff very friendly and helpful even if I did confuse us all with my order, everything was sorted and my error corrected. Thanks for being so great as always.

Food was lovely nice and hot only problem was the time at the bar only 2 people on and the sun was shining so out side was full they did there best thow

Was lovely place dog friendly was asked if everything was okay would 100% return. Food is amazing

Eat here a few times food was really nice and good value.

Just a quick visit for a pint, we'd walked from our B&B up near Gynn Square and I think I deserved a pint. Unfortunately, no Smiths or Guinness, so had a European Lager.

Big ale house with a good selection of drinks and food. Downstairs for the ladies, upstairs for the gents. Good outside seating area.

Nice clean pub, Google maps location not correct, actually near McDonald's.

Miserable server but food was good and service fast

Nice pub busy but quick service even on Friday night

New menu absolutely brilliant great staff great beer great venue

Dog friendly pub with a clean interior and good facilities if required. Friendly staff also

We didn't eat here, we popped in for a drink while visiting Blackpool, it's a lovely pub

One of my favourite bars in Blackpool.

Nice family friendly place nice outside garden area and food was reasonable price unfortunately found a hair in one of our burgers but was compensated with free drinks and an apology (thank you kerry) which was good enough for me we will definitely return for drinks

Food was very nice. Steak ale pie , all day breakfast and sausage and mash. Tasty, like homemade. Staff friendly .thank you

It's alright for a promenade stop off. Wouldn't be somewhere I'd choose to go

Went a few times over the weekend as it's a great place to outside as well as having plenty of seating in doors

Called in for some food after it was recommended to us by a friend and we weren't disappointed. The BBQ Mac Burger was really good and tasty. My partner had the chicken burger and she enjoyed it as well. We're going back to Blackpool in December and we will go to the Dutton Arms again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Hopelessly a joke 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😂😂😂

Staff were very welcoming, food was delicious.

Great location next to the pleasure beach, decent food and decent drinks. Has a pool table and plenty of screens for the sports.

Fish and chips was good, atmosphere ok.

Well fitted and tastefully set out pub, great service, wide selection of ales

Very disappointed. The place was recommended by our Hotel but they had no steaks available and what made it worse was the fact that the lad behind the bar didn't appear sorry or bothered, so we drank up and went to the Steak House next door which did a phenomenal ribeye. Won't be going back to The Dutton.

Came here to have a few drink started playing a trivia gane and the staff was playing with us super cheap super cheerful (manager on shift Alex) and Grant boss people highly recomend

Absolutely an amazing experience Alex, grant and the manager on shift on the 9th of April were lovely would definitely recommend coming to this pub atmosphere is amazing food outstanding and service the best you could ask for

Food was amazing. Everything you want in a burger and not left hungry after

Amazing how clean and smart this place is given the location..... Others nearby could learn a thing or two. Good staff, food and drink.... Reasonable prices

Allowed dogs which was great ,food and service excellent

Staff were really welcoming, fast service and the food was delicious too. Lovely modern, warm and clean premises in a very run down area. Blackpool isn't what it used to be, lots of closed/shutdown/derelict buildings, such a shame.

In all the years I've lived in Blackpool I've never once been into this pub but went in today and it was fantastic! Beautifully decorated, clean and warm with a friendly atmosphere to boot. The food was belting and so tasty! Will be going again!

Fabulous friendly staff.good food.lovely surroundings what more can you ask for

Had the bbq chicken and bacon cheese sauce melt enjoyed it.

Nice pub food. Service was quick when I visited on a Sunday evening. Staff were pleasant.

Really decent pub. Friendly staff and punters , good grub. As I say, decent.

Nice pub with good food. Lots of sports screens.

Nice pub, young irish girl behind the bar was great,

Great pub on the promenade. Good social distancing set up.

Nice dog friendly pub. Came in for food, drink, and to watch the football. Served quickly both drinks and food. Lovely new decor. Everywhere was clean and tidy.

Not a place that I've been to much, but decided to go for a rare outing for something to eat. Lovely new decor, friendly, light hearted, fast service. The food was delivered, piping hot and tasty, the only problem being that my eyes were bigger than my belly!! A good chat with the short Polish girl who was very polite. Will I be back? Most definitely 🙂

Nice pub, obviously recently refurbished to a good standard. Good choice of food and drink. Staff helpful and friendly.

Pleasantly surprised at how clean and nice it was. Will definitely be coming back maybe for food next time.

Absolutely love this place. Love Kerry, so helpful 5*

Had the all-day breakfast and the hunters chips, to say we were disappointed is an understatement, the sausages were hard, and inedible the bacon was burnt black... toast was hard.. the eggs whites were runny not cooked. As for the hunters chips, the fork wouldn't even go into the chicken it was dry and hard again, not edible.... the hunters' chips were replaced, but these were cold, and the bacon was this time undercooked.... we will deffinatly not return

Visited here last weekend with my family. Was a fantastic experience from the moment we got there to the moment we left! Will definitely be visiting again in the summer!

Lovley food, amazing staff and lovely atmosphere. Will 100% return in the future

Was staying next door at Viking and wanted to watch the champions league game barman told me it shuts at 10 i can honestly say I've never been in a pub that shuts so early im sure it is a decent boozer but ive not noticed it yet

Great refurbishment lovely food and great service.

A welcome sight on a cold day during the closed season. Only wanted a hot drink and got a very warm welcome. Thank you for this oasis in a desert.
