Sue's Curiositea & Coffee Shop in Blackpool

Amazing full English breakfast complete with candle in my toast when they found out it was my birthday..this has been one of the best breakfasts we have ever had! Great service, very friendly The fried bread was a bonus, will be going back again Very soon!! Thank you for a wonderful morning!

Tea from a proper tea pot and not those silver efforts that leak all over the place.

Lovely lunch with lovely company xx Nice bit of cake to take away lush xx

We only stopped in for coffee and a scone , which were lovely. Friendly place 😁

I took my sister here for a birthday treat. She's a coealiac, so afternoon tea is not often an option for her. We were so well looked after, and the food was amazing and plentiful! They even organised a cab to drive us back to our accommodation afterwards. I'd definitely go again if in Blackpool.

The only problem I ever have here is the business of the place. People reserve tables, which I'm not sure is a great thing as it stops people dropping in, they could be losing custom. The staff ate always welcoming and friendly, it's clean and a but cramped together, the food is good - fresh and value for money.

Love this cafe always friendly and cosy and very welcomed been coming on and off for years, everything is always good ♥️

Great will be back for more with family

Dirty fries with a little twist, I asked for melted cheese, bacon, sweet chilli and mayonnaise. Very tasty, huge portion 👀. Thanks Sue, lovely place you have here in Layton, great service, super friendly kind staff. Big thanks from our team, who you always look after. ❤️ 👍🏼

Friendly. Generous portions. Nice,clean cafe. Tastefully decorated x

Today was the first time I've been properly for a sit down meal and it was such a lovely experience. We both thoroughly enjoyed one of their special items, a pressed panni with bacon, halloumi cheese and sweet chilli sauce, served with a side of potato wedges, coleslaw, salad and garlic mayo. All of this delicious food was served as a very generous portion and only cost approximately £7 each! That's the sort of quality and value hard to come by anywhere! The staff were simply excellent. Fantastic, friendly service with a smile which created a lovely, welcoming environment and made the place feel like a home from home. And the cakes 👀 Wow! We were well looked after with a Mississippi Mud Pie and a Biscoff Cheesecake, both of which were some of the best I've ever had. It's not possible to fault the place! The food, the choice, the service, the atmosphere.... Everything was just perfect. I can not wait to return again ☺️ Thank you for looking after us both today!

Fantastic little cafe. Great staff. Fantastic breakfast. Would go again.

What more can I say about Sue's cafe in Layton, you have tried the rest, now come to the best, the food is absolutely fantastic and gorgeous, from the phenomenal cream teas, are to die for, for a great treat, and even for that special present to someone special celebrating a special date, or even Christmas, Easter, etclook no further than here it is a real treat.

Had a delicious afternoon tea to celebrate a friend's birthday. More than enough to eat, the staff will.give you a doggy bag to take home if needed. Reasonably priced, nice, friendly staff, pleasant surroundings.

A lovely quiet little cafe. The foods always great and with friendly service.

First time visit. Very good varied menu and good prices. Seem to have regular customers which is always a good sign. Will be going back

ACE PLACE 5☆ amazing food, amazing owner, amazing ethos

Wow! Absolutely amazing! Food is so fresh, and you have such a variety of goodies to choose from! Service absolutely spot on, and the girls couldn't do enough to cater for dietary requirements. Thank you for making my birthday trip out so memorable and for catering for us all so perfectly. We will definitely be back!

Went for Afternoon Tea 27/10/22 this place is High standard Good Food Good service clean friendly I recommend this place and family friendly as well as nice place to go with a friend to catch up

Lovely place to grab a quick bite in between jobs

Lovely place, really nice staff and food. I highly recommend them to anyone in the area.

It's fabulous..food is great, staff friendly around excellent

Really nice food with good service, the parking is a bit tricky around it and you might need to reserve to guarantee a table

Lovely little cafe in layton food is great and staff are friendly too Cakes are out of this world

Lovely place very clean and good portions of very good food. Lovely staff and very light open space

Very good food and drink. Pleasant staff. Good value.

Absolutely amazing place lots of homemade cakes enjoyed an afternoon tea.

Lovely little community cafe. Good food at reasonable prices and friendly staff.

Suzanne and the staff do an amazing job. Food is always lovely and staff really friendly.

Absolutely beautiful cafe, it was a delight to visit

We visited a few weeks ago when visiting Blackpool , WOW, we had the afternoon tea , I can eat but it beat me , everything so fresh and tasty , you need to expand and open a shop in Hull , will be visiting again when are in Blackpool.

Absolutely fantastic experience. The staff was so polite and helpful, the shop was small but cosy and I loved the decoration. The option for food is amazing especially the afternoon tea and you get so much with it for the price. I'm sick of cafes which just do bacon or egg sandwiches so it was a nice refreshing change and a lot better taste and quality than the afternoon tea in winter gardens which was just more expensive,boring and tasteless. We was so full but didn't want to waste anything and was able to bring it home for later. Looking forwards to my massive cake and a brew before bed 🙌🙌🙌🙌 I will definitely be a returning customer 🤤

Really nice. Big cakes, big sandwiches good service.

Two great breakfasts today. All good quality and tasty. Lovely staff. Thank you.

Will definitely visit again and not just for coffee, wife and daughter enjoyed the cakes on last visit.

Really freindly staff and good choice.

Had a lovely breakfast barm .mate had cheese on toast with beans.was lovely.very nice atmosphere friendly service and he had bannoffee pie.which looked devine as did all the cakes.

Actually really enjoyed our time here! Thank you! We had afternoon tea for 4 of us. Massive sandwiches, cakes that are so so soft! Service was so attentive, corrected our pot of tea, tidied things away so we had more room, checking in on us even though the rest of the cafe was full. Definitely recommend, lovely decor, very clean and noticed they have a little notice to 'pay it forward' so less fortunate people can enjoy something tnice to eat or drink :) thank you ladies x

Absolutely Beautiful cafe here in Layton, we visited today as a Surprise for one of my friends, and I can't thank the two lovely Ladies who work here for making it even more special with your service you give, Curiositea @ 23 is a small, Cosy but very Welcoming Cafe, I highly recommend you book a table and visit because you won't be disappointed

Brilliant staff loved every bit of it thank you so much

Lovely little spot weather its toast and tea, panini's or the battens I got bacon, egg and sausage dint relies how big it was massive 1ft easy and the giant chocolate eclairs wow 😋

I have both eaten inside and bought from the takeaway menu. This little cafe in Layton is amazing. The food is delicious and nothing is ever too much trouble for the ladies who work there. Their afternoon teas are lovely and you get quite a lot for your money. I would definitely recommend

It had 3 reserved tables and the few others were full so we had to go elsewhere unfortunately

Lovely food, friendly staff. Have booked afternoon tea

A bit of head scratching from team member when asked about GF options . A few years ago maybe but most places do have a wide GF carried menu these days

Smashing cafe in Layton. Really generous portions and delicious food!

Very pleasant staff and helpful worth every penny

Stopped in, got a table without problem but reservations are taken if required. Friendly and quick service, very good value for money. Breakfast batons very filling! £5 minimum card spend. Thanks for having us 😊

Had a lovely visit here with my girls to try bubble tea and cake. Very lovely independent coffee shop with a friendly welcoming team x will definitely be a regular choice for us 💙💙💙

Afternoon tea was delicious and very filling. Staff very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend.

Beautiful food served by beautiful people nothing is too much trouble an the young lady who owns it is so helpful 💚

We visited on our way to our hotel in Blackpool and the place was buzzing. Despite being almost full, they were happy to squeeze us in for a quick lunch. The food was lovely and we will definitely go back when we're in the area. It's clearly a very popular place!

Lovely Little cafe and staff are really polite and welcoming food was nice aswell

After a morning at the tower we decided to have a spot off lunch but being gluten free the only places in town that catered for GF was restaurant s but I just wanted something light like a sandwich. We had been recommended this restaurant but it was just outside off town a 9 minute drive but we decided to try it. I am so glad we did. I had such a selection of food to choose from, so much that I felt really spoilt for choice. In the end I opted for a cheese, onion and chilli jam sandwich. My husband went for the cheese and onion toastie. The food was delicious and so fresh. The owner, a lovely lady came out and we had a good chat about the struggles of finding good gluten free food. So glad we went here one of the best GF sandwiches I have tasted so far on my English travels.

only been past not actually been in the place but looks really nice from outside n looks like can get quite busy at times

Oh my word this is the BEST afternoon tea I have had. Beautiful soft bread with home made fillings. The biggest cake I have ever seen and delicious scones with clotted cream. A huge pot of tea and what we couldn’t eat we were able to take home. The owner is the sweetest lady who took time to explain the gluten free options for one person and provided the most delicious GF food. We were impressed with all the staff who were friendly and attentive and the owner was a delight, she clearly loves her business and it shows.The decor is warm and inviting and trust me you can’t eat it all!10 mins from the prom the perfect pre light experience and we will be back

Experience from start to finish was excellent. Food was nice sandwiches 🥪 tasted good and a nice selection of cakes 🎂. Well worth the £12 per person for afternoon. Will be returning again soon Thank you 😊

Wonderful little cafe! Great food. We had afternoon tea and it was to die for! Big portions and very friendly staff! Very cosy feel too.

Good food right price and friendly service too

Me and my 2 year old girl came in after dropping my car off at a garage in the area. The cafe itself is very lovely looking! I ordered us both food and it was very tasty and yummy and big portion sizes! Very reasonably priced also. Just before seeing this cafe we very nearly ended up going to subway and honestly so glad we avoided it and their ridiculous prices, I paid less than I would of there we got to sit in a cosy warm cafe and the food and staff was great! The staff are so polite and nice and when leaving they offered to put my little girls left over food ina take away box and put her milkshake ina to go cup and just very helpful! Will be coming again!!

1st time for myself & Hubby, really enjoyed it. Lovely staff.

What can I say apart from this coffee shop is absolutely amazing. The lady sorry didn't catch her name was so informative about gluten free as her dad has coeliac and nothing was too much trouble. All the staff are chatty and lovely. There is so much gluten free to choose from ciabatta's to toasties to sausages and much more. The portion size is also large and even sharing chips I was so full. The food is 10 🌟 infact more and we even bought gluten free cake to bring away with us for when we get hungry again. Thank you ❤

What an amazing coffee shop. Nothing was too much trouble for us. The lady who owns it had so much knowledge on gluten free as he dad has it and she took her time to tell us things which were gluten free(which was most of the menu) and even said she had different mayonnaise in the back. The portion sizes are huge and the homemade coleslaw is so fresh. The staff are so lovely and chatty and nothing was too much trouble for them. Honestly it is worth 10 and more. Do not come to this area without stopping in you will not be disappointed ♥

If you like home made lunches, affordable prices, decent portions, family friendly atmosphere this is the cafe for you!!! I took my 2 children there also my inlaws who live abroad when they visited. I have moved out of town now but id go back for this cafe!!! Friendly staff, delicious food!

Very generous Afternoon Tea at great value. You choose which sandwich you want from their menu (chips and salad come as standard), then select either a cherry or fruit scone which comes with butter, jam and clotted cream. You choose the cream cake you want from the counter - absolutely huge so decided to bring home to have later!! Choice of tea or coffee. All served beautifully on traditional tiered stand and china cups /plates. All for £12 per person and the service was great - very friendly and we were served promptly. Will definitely go there again and can highly recommend.

What a wonderful find, a lovely welcome from staff and friendly customers too. Great cake and sandwich choices for afternoon tea option and all very fresh. We definitely recommend for quality, value and service.

This is just such a lovely place. Excellent value for money. My little boy loved his afternoon tea and we will be visiting again soon.

Such a hidden gem! The staff and food are both amazing. My son is also coeliac, and it is his favourite place to go as nothing is too much trouble for them.Their afternoon teas are fantastic and extremely good value for money. I would highly recommend ⭐️

Went in September with my 3 children. Ordered bubble tea for the children (I'd never heard of it before but the children were very excited to try) I had a pot of tea and we all had a cake each. Wow! The cakes were amazing, the children loved their tea and I was a very happy mum! The cakes were so big we couldn't finish them so the staff got us take away boxes and paper bags so we could take them home. Cleanliness 10/10 friendliness 10/10 food 10/10Will be back!!!!

Lovely food and atmosphere with affordable prices. The team members are very accommodating and friendly.

My family of 4 visited this wonderful little gem when visiting from N.Ireland. We researched that they offered GF afternoon tea. It certainly did not disappoint. We booked a table, which was no trouble to the lovely friendly staff. The food was amazing, the staff where so friendly. Portions were huge. Nothing was any trouble. In fact it was so good we called in a second time for lunch, before we returned home. Again we experienced the same 5* treatment and food. We will definately be returning on our next trip to Blackpool. Highly recommended *****

Fantastic coffee shop. Customer service always amazing. Sue and her staff really do go the extra mile. Food is delicious and every time I visit I always take extra cakes home. Can’t recommend enough.

Sue and the team have continued to provide an excellent service despite all the stresses of the last 2 years. I use CuriosiTea for Business and Pleasure and they NEVER fail to disappoint.My team at clinic LOVE their lunches.Very Clean.Incredibly Friendly.Great food.Massive portions.Good prices.What more could you want? P.s If a Coffee Shop doesn't have what you need on the menu and still caters for your demands, it's terribly inpolite to then slate them for it. 3☆ my backsid3. This little place is a Gem and contributes more to the local area than your silly review.

What a Perfect place with a wonderful woman who cares so much and you can clearly see that ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Visit this coffee shop/cafe on a regular basis. Sue and staff friendly and very efficient. Loads of different breakfast barms/wraps /light bites to choose from. Cheese, tomato and onion on toast excellent. Granary bread does excellent thick toast. All food freshly prepared and she does a roaring trade on eating in and takeaway items..Afternoon teas are a speciality, bookings advisable. A gem of a place in Layton.

Fantastic food, Great staff, Very welcoming. They go the extra mile to make sure everything is ok.. So much lovely food we needed a goody bag. Definitely the best around. Thank you so much see you all again soon. 😋

What an amazingly friendly place! Customer service was great and the food was really fresh! We will definitely be returning!

Very friendly staff and great food! Would recommend to anyone. Heard about this place through word of mouth and I was not disappointed. Will see be going again soon.

Absolutely beautiful place so friendly. And the food is amazing and great value for money. Sue puts her heart and soul into this place and does so much for the community. Well worth a visit x

I’m a bit late writing this but I’ve seen a couple of bad reviews and it doesn’t seem warranted at all. I’ve recently moved to the area and visited a couple of weeks ago with my daughter. We sat outside as it was a nice day. The owner came out and had obviously had a stressful day (I think 2 men had run out on their tab) but was polite and took our order within a reasonable time. She said that there may be a bit of a delay on the food. It didn’t bother us but within 15 minutes, we were given our meals. Absolutely lovely food and fresh. We both really enjoyed it. We didn’t have any cake but they looked lovely too and will try them next time.

Absolutely fantastic from the min we walked through the door the 3 ladies were friendly. Then came our afternoon tea for 2. To celebrate my wife's 50th birthday. OMG never have we had an afternoon tea like it. The bread & fillings were yummy. The fresh cream cakes out of this world. We couldn't eat it all. So Sue boxed it up so we could take it home. We will definitely be returning & recommending to all we know!! Xx

Great wee place me and 2 friends visited from Scotland and didn't disappoint we had the lotus biscoff lattes and bacon sausage and egg batons which were huge! Tasted fresh out of all the places we looked at in Blackpool we came here and glad we did! Anytime I'm in Blackpool I'll visit here without question. Staff are really nice and look really happy to work here and a pleasant welcome

Visited a couple of weeks ago. Ordered a “full English” wasn’t too keen. Told at first they didn’t do them as they didn’t warm the plates. No issue about cold plates. Didn’t ask what type of egg we wanted and we got fried and it didn’t have much taste. Food was okay but wouldn’t return. Friendly staff. Clean. Can sit in or take away. The cakes looked really good! I am probably just picky.

Food was amazing, Service was quick also a really lovely wee cafe .Will definitely be back next time I'm in Blackpool.

THE best place to eat in layton. Staff are lovely. Prices are so cheap but food is top class. And they are a very charitable business, so will always support them 😀

Excellent food & service. Good choice and I actually got 2 slices of cheese on toast 😋 Most places is 1 slice with cheese & a slice of plain toast..

Fantastic. Such good service and huge portion sizes. Breakfast bap, chips, chip barm, two teas, pepsi and two lemon slices for £14!!! Bargain

Best cafe we've been to by far. Food quality, price, staff and atmosphere are all excellent

Went twice during our one week visit to Blackpool, this small cafe is in Layton area and is out of the town. We done the afternoon tea on our first visit which was really good and you can take away what you don’t eat. On our 2nd we just done a normal lunch, friendly staff and definitely reasonable pricing so definitely recommend.

Had lunch today with Sandra, lovely food and helpful friendly staff, always a pleasant time.

Fantastic lunch and service ..friendliest owners and serving staff. So knowledgeable re gluten free diet and so many options. Will become my go to for lunches with friends what a gem.
