The Bank Bar & Grill in Blackpool

Ricardo is an amazing host and all the servers are great. The food is gorgeous and the cocktails are sublime. Take the time to enjoy this little gem.

Got recommended by a friend and he wasn't wrong. Great place, right next to the grand theatre. The food was delicious, lovely atmosphere. the owner had a nice chat with us and I mentioned that the wings were a little small and he said he'd sort it out. Next time we'll miss a starter and try a dessert. Note that there is a service charge on the bill which can be removed. All in all a lovely meal before our show.

Fantastic place, lovely venue, super friendly staff, and wonderful freshly made food.

Entertaining staff, very helpful and polite, delicious food, went there for every day we was visiting Blackpool, highly recommend, a Blackpool restaurant gem!

Somewhere else nice to eat in Blackpool. Good food, good service and good value. Delightful staff, tasty food. Well worth a visit.

We had the most amazing meal with fantastic service!! 10/10 Recommend if you’re in Blackpool.

All excellent. We had a great meal. 3 courses, beer and wine. Staff were fantastic and a great atmosphere. Hope to return soon. Great experience, especially as a Saturday evening.

A really lovely delightful place to have a meal as a couple and with friends, we have been here on many occasions. The staff are just lovely and friendly and not in your face. I would fully recommend this place to anybody.I may also add not to try and overstay your allotted 2 hours at your table, you may not be welcome or quizzed on your intentions

We booked a table for four as we come here once a year whilst attending a convention. Such a warm welcome like you’re visiting old friends. The owner Ricardo is a wonderful restaurateur. All the staff are friendly and efficient and the food and cocktails are always delicious. We highly recommend this restaurant and can’t wait for next years visit!

The food was lovely, where are table was situated wasn't best planned in between two large parties of 12 and 8 and me and my partner was in the middle of them, also for some reason they charge 10% for a service charge, I thought I was in America

I could never fault this place until last night (valentines night) obviously very busy. We had been there for just 1 and a half hours and being very aware of the possible 2 hour cut off point thought let’s have another drink. Well the waiter said let me see if I can do that because we might need your table, we did not expect that response for a start especially as there was at least 6 other tables empty. He came back and said yes of course that’s ok no problem I’ll be honest the damage was done we felt pressured and didn’t enjoy the remaining 45 minutes in there. there was no need to say that to us, we spend a considerable amount of hard earned money in there and have never once been told that possibly we couldn’t have another drink. Thank you for wonderful hospitality over the years but alas it has come to an end.

The food was lovely and the staff are very polite and professional

Really nice place to have some good. Great service and very tasty food. Well done e

Good food from a varied menu. Service was first class.

Came here for food before a gig and wasn't disappointed. Customer service was excellent, food came out pretty quickly considering they were quite busy, and prices were fine.

Called in on Sunday afternoon service and food excellent will certainly be back when in Blackpool!!

Simply Sublime with outstanding Service.

Fantastic food and great service. Lots of alternatives for Gluten Free fussy eaters like me. Thanks and see you again =)

Thought the food was just average to be fair the lasagne was disappointing the garlic bread slice was tiny very small portion of lasagne which wasn't bubbling in a dish and was served on a plate my partners burger was OK the waiter was a bit sharp at first saying are we on the same page when he never heard my partner asking to order we asked for the service charge taking off as we think this should be given if deserved and not just added to the bill overall it didn't have the wow factor !

11 of us enjoyed meal here on saturday 25th january 2025. excellent food cannot fault it. will be booking again

Really nice place. Excellent, attentive staff and great food Rare steak cooked to perfection. Will return.

Brilliant customer service, great recommendations and food is amazing too!

What a fantastic place to go for a meal. We came today and the food was perfect. Excellent place to go to if you are coeliac/gluten free, there are so many options which is hard to come by. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, even the chef came and spoke to us to make sure we were happy with the meals. Would 100% recommend

Lovely food, well priced and really great host/owner. What a top guy. Nothing too much trouble, everything cooked fresh and tailored for any fussy eaters or kids. Definitely go again.

We know owner, super guy . Friendly, everything is brilliant. Norm and Sally Barlow, Poulton.

Had a lovely meal , staff very friendly and welcoming , Highly recommend the food . Love the Blast Sunrise Moctail .

What a place. “I forgot we were in Blackpool” we both declared as we sat down in Bank. The place is lovely, the service is excellent, and the food is exceptional. I overheard the owner telling some other guests that they haven’t advertised their business yet it is full. And it’s easy to see why. The business put in a discretionary 10% service charge in post Covid which goes to the staff. Even with this charge, the value for money is fantastic. Let’s start with the ribs I had for starter. I’ve never had ribs as good quality. They were massive (which is great for me), they were tender, juicy and flavourful. An excellent starter. My wife had the Garlic Mushrooms which were super quality. The only slight gripe there was that’s she would have liked more salad with it. Now, on to the mains. I implore you to try the burger. I know, it’s a burger. Everywhere does a burger. Everywhere charges the same price for a burger, and everywhere has it on a brioche. And, I as I ordered it, I too was expecting that same thing as everywhere. But let me tell you, this is not your bang average burger. This is, quite frankly, a fantastic burger. The patty is thick, it is hand made, and it is not over-minced. It is too-quality locally sourced, great cuts of beef, which are made into proper burger patties. And that’s the magic of this. Unpretentious, unassuming, then comes along and takes you beyond your expectations. I’ll be honest, this burger was worth the 10% discretionary charge alone. It was worth 25% the price they are currently charging. Blackpool is for everyone, and sometimes you want great food at a great price, to be treated decently, and seated in a well appointed place - and Bank has that. We dined at Marco Pierre Whites for afternoon tea the same day, and the service level here is easily on-par with that. We will be back, and we will be trying other items on their hand-prepared menu. We cannot wait!

Lovely gem of a place. Brilliant atmosphere, staff are genuinely friendly and helpful. Staff fully aware of allergens and gluten free food. Prices are very reasonable and the food was lush. Would definitely recommend and go again.

Very nice place all round food 1st class

Fabulous eaterie.. ambience great..food excellent and staff terrific 👏

This place was recommended to us by a friend and it didn’t disappoint! Amazing customer service, extremely tasty good quality food cooked fresh to order and reasonable priced…we would definitely return.

Lovely restaurant, friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

What a fantastic restaurant. Staff are amazing, food is so delicious. Went here for my Dad's 80th Birthday, nothing was too much trouble for them, they kindly decorated the table and blew up loads of balloons for me. The owners are fantastic too and should be very proud of the restaurant and all the staff. Will definitely be going back soon. Thank you again for everything you did for my Dad.

Food and service was lovely. Great choice of items on menu and reasonably priced.

came here for my sisters birthday today for the first time & will absolutely be coming back. portion sizes are great, food is fresh & delicious, and the staff are great too. the whole atmosphere is great, will be recommending to everyone! (chicken skewers were amazing, and everyone else’s food at the table smelt & looked delicious, i think i need to try everything on the menu!)

My lasagne was top notch, so I'd definitely recommend that, and my partner enjoyed his burger. The service was outstanding, with a little confusion with the burger, as ordered the cheese and bacon one instead of the standard burger, but the partner still did enjoy it. The staff were very apologetic about it but we didn't mind. Will definitely revisit if ever we go back to Blackpool!

Over rated reviews Service was dire Can't see what the attraction is.

I visited as a group of 3 adults and 1 toddler. Every member of staff was fantastic and couldn’t do enough for us. They were great with my 2 year old and made it a lovely experience. The decor is lovely and the food was delicious. A definite hidden gem in Blackpool.

First time last night, with family that have been before, wot a great place, food was excellent, staff very friendly and the irish coffee for lush, will definitely be back

This was our 3rd visit back to The Bank Bar & Grill. It won't be our last! The food, staff and atmosphere is excellent. This is Blackpools hidden gem. See you soon for another visit.

The best place in Blackpool to go food os outstanding .

Another very good lunch. Highly recommend

Absolutely excellent. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants great food, wonderful service and excellent atmosphere 👌🏻

Delicious meal and great service. Portion sizes good and we left stuffed!

So came here for a quick lunch, didn't think we would be able to get a table as it's usually busy. We were sat straight away with a table in the window. Offered drinks immediately and came quickly, well presented and perfectly made. Waited maybe 10 minutes for food which didn't feel long at all. The food came out looking amazing and tasted incredible. I had the chicken skewers with the honey chilli and garlic sauce. Honestly one of the best meals I've had. I'm a chef and I was seriously impressed. My mum had the mini mixed grill. Meat was cooked to perfection. Great portion sizes. Excellent service and very relaxing atmosphere. 5 stars well deserved. Best restaurant in the Fylde. Well done to your team. Cannot recommend enough.

Told staff it was my 60th birthday. They made no special effort, well, just no effort at all.One waiter was so hung over that he couldn't be bothered.

One of the best meals we have experienced. The staff are so friendly. Definitely a place we will be eating at again

Gluten free is brilliant. Came across this place by chance. Food is lovely. Very much recommend. Lovely restaurant.

Food was amazing, staff were very friendly. Will definitely go back next time I visit Blackpool

Central location near to theatres, food well presented and tasty ! Reservation made and table ready on arrival. Would definitely dine here again.

Pleasant atmosphere , good service.

This is a very good place to have a cocktail one of the best negroni's I've had in a long time. The waitress call Romiley was really friendly and gave us alot of information the helped us out over our 2 day break thank you.

We took a chance on this place when on a break in Blackpool. Would 100% go back our server was great and interacted loads with my son who has ADHD so sitting and waiting isn't his strong point. Food was delicious arrived quickly was fresh. The options were varied so it was easy to find something for everyone and they sat our group of 6 almost immediately with no reservation.

Really great place. The staff were so friendly and couldn’t have done more for us, a big group of 16. Food was lovely, and they had an excellent selection of gluten free food for my son who is coeliac. Coming back next year for sure.

Dinner for two, lovely meal, wine and a proper margarita

Really enjoyed my meal here the fillet steak was beautiful, added the surf n turf and the prawns were delicious. There is a service charge, wish it had been a little less but the servers were really attentive and friendly.

Went here last month and what a find it was! Very cute and cosy little restaurant and the food and wine was amazing for the price! I had the pesto pasta and I was not disappointed! Definitely worth a visit! Will definitely give it a visit again soon!

A great find in Blackpool. Such a great team and the passion they have put into this restaurant, drinks and food really shines through. We were running late but the restaurant contacted us to make sure everything was okay and they kept the booking opening for us. The food was just amazing, you can tell they care about what they are producing and this showed in the dishes. The drink selection was great and went well with the food. Highly recommend if you fancy a night of a little fine dinning in a great environment.

Lovely place for brunch , great choice of menu food nicely served and was delicious , good drinks menu

Great food and Atmosphere. Not crammed in the staff look after you. Would come here again. Best place I ate in Blackpool. Also not too overpriced.

First time dining here last night. Lovely clean modern restaurant. Great menu with loads of choice. Food was fantastic and portions are good. Great value for money for the quality of food and portion sizes. We didnt wait long for our order considering it was very busy and food was piping hot. Staff were all lovely, friendly and attentive without being pushy, very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. First visit last night but definately not our last....loved it!

We came here as recommended by trip advisor. The food was amazing and arrived quickly. The service was also excellent with very professional staff who appeared very happy doing their job.6 We would highly recommend.

Lovely lunch with friends. The staff are the best. We had two people who have an allergy to shell fish. They made sure that different oil was used making sure all staff were aware. Our waiter as well as all the others was available and was friendly. We all had chicken skewers. Wish we had more time to spend here but we were going to see a show. Would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone It must be good as everyone was waiting for it to open

We hadden niet gereserveerd, toch werd er ruimte vrijgemaakt voor ons. Kleinschalig restaurant, verdeeld over BG en een halve vide. Erg knus en smaakvol ingericht. Het klopt allemaal. Heerlijk gegeten, ruime menukeuze. Goede prijs/kwaliteit verhouding. Uiterst vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Ook waar we na ons eten, elders, nog cocktails konden drinken.

Great place, excellent food, reasonable prices, lovely welcoming and engaging staff. Thank you for a super meal and all round experience - pity we don't live closer!

Great to celebrate birthday. Service spot on. Food perfect. For a city centre restaurant prices extremely reasonable.

I don't normally leave reviews but whilst on holiday from Scotland I feel this is well deserved. I made the reservation prior to travelling down I liked what I saw and needed a good dining experience. As a lone parent it's a rare occasion we get out for a treat and a treat it was Thank you to the staff for looking after us even prior to our arrival. Running a little late I received a call, we were lost but on the right track not only did we get directions the kind guy came out to wave us in the right direction. The cocktails were lovely and I shall return to try the other 28 on the menu. Steak and all the trimmings were amazing and reasonably priced in comparison to what we would be at home for the fine dining experience. All the staff were friendly. Also my daughter wasn't feeling too great and the suggestions on offer for a menu mix-up were extremely helpful unfortunately she wasn't up to eating the meal at the time but this was boxed up and she ate it after her nap later on. Thanks from Ayrshire Scotland

Only been here twice, today was the second time, the first was 12 months ago, we enjoyed it on both occasions. The staff were very attentive so, I would recommend it to anyone I now that would be coming to Blackpool without doubt.

Daughter has a kids meal was the size of an adults. She loved it. I got the mixed grill all good was well cooked unlike other places. Steak was cooked bang on!

Food amazing !!! Cocktails amazing !!!! Staff so friendly and welcoming !!! We can’t wait to return for another lovey evening !!

Had a fantastic meal - great value for money and the friendliest waiter we’ve ever had! All the waiting staff were excellent - really enhances the eating out experience to be able to have some friendly banter. Wonderful menu all cooked freshly so you can tweak if any specific requirements. 3 of us had the ribs, which were melt in the mouth and a very generous portion. This is now our new favourite place to eat in Blackpool!

From we arrived the team were fantastic from (the owner we found out later) to every one that served us. The chef poppped out a d the fook was delicious and so hot. We would like to say thank you.

Delicious food and brilliant service. Will return!

Went got a hen party. We weren't you typical rowdy bunch but we still had a great laugh with the staff. The food was brilliant and the prices are bob-on

When I get the chance to eat out, this is one of my favourite places. The customer service from all staff from management to waiter service is always exemplary and the food is constantly as great. Relaxed atmosphere and affordable prices... What more can you ask for!

Food is amazing, Alex, Ricardo and team cannot do enough. We are regulars despite living outside Blackpool - would highly recommend 👌

Absolutely immaculate food, service & restaurant. 12/10 even better than expected.

Without doubt one of the best dining experiences we've had in a very long time. The lamb was perfect, staff attentive, brilliant. Highly recommended. You'll not find a finer tiramisu anywhere! Great chat with the owner, even about Orlando !! Superb experience. WILL be back. Oh superb cocktails too!

recently visited the the bank bar and grill, and I must say it was an absolute delight! The food was incredibly tasty and exceeded my expectations. From juicy hunters chicken to , delicious, cheesy garlic, bread, every bite was a culinary delight. What truly stood out for me though was the warm and welcoming atmosphere created by the staff. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with genuine smiles and helpful service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was enjoyable, making me feel right at home. From start to finish, the hospitality at this bar and grill was simply outstanding. I felt like a valued guest throughout my visit, and the friendly staff added an extra layer of warmth to the already inviting ambiance. I highly recommend this place for not only its delicious food but also for the amazing service that makes you feel like part of the family.

The staff was very helpful and friendly and made sure that everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious and I liked that amount of choices that were given for each course. I would definitely visit this place again in the future.

Me and my girlfriend went while we were in Blackpool service was brilliant and the food was amazing would highly recommend to anyone

Holy Moly forget the rest in Blackpool, THIS is the place to eat. The staffs attention to detail regarding slight changes to your food is exceptional. As for the food it was so good we visited twice in two days trying different food and cocktails. On both days the food was brilliant, I will recommend one thing to everyone who visits you must order the Chunky Chips! They are to die for and easily the best in Blackpool. This restaurant sets the standard all others should try to achieve. WOW! P.S it is so good It pays to book so you aren't disappointed. Don't leave Blackpool without trying this restaurant.

Asn oasis of excellence in a brash Blackpool! Highly recommend.

Popped in for lunch, lovely staff, food bang on, deffo worth anyone's cashola!

This place was absolutely lush!! I had the vegetariana pizza and spicy chips with Stilton sauce. The pizza was cheesy with fresh vegetables on it. The spicy chips had a lovely warmth to it. The Stilton sauce tasted so much of Stilton and was lovely. My friend had the bank burger, it looked juicy and full. She said it was amazing and very good quality burger. She had it with sweet potato fries which were delicious. The atmosphere inside was lovely. The seats were comfortable. Lighting was cosey, bright enough not to strain your eyes and not too bright. The staff were amazing. Very welcoming. Had lovely personalities and seemed to actively enjoy working there. Sad I found this place on the last day of my visit or I would have been coming back every day. Cannot fault it. Amazing.

Simply amazing. Every one of our 8meals was amazing, full of flavour and pippin hot. Service was outstanding and very personal too. Special thanks to the team - Dean, Romilly, David, Abi, Louis & Riccardo -

Excellent food and service and most items on the menu have a gluten free option including the pizza and pasta

Came here to celebrate my daughter's graduation, everything was impeccable. We needed to change our time slot which was promptly sorted which was excellent. We had a very warm welcome and staff were very attentive but not hovering, the food was divine, compliments to the chef. Thank you to all the staff who really made us feel special and made the celebration continue after attending the graduation ceremony, you really did make our day. If you live near or are in Blackpool I highly recommend The Bank Bar and Grill.

Pretty decent grub for the price, one of the best places in Blackpool. Do book in advance for the weekends though, they are usually full.

Absolutely fantastic experience! Walked in and was greeted warmly. We were found a table at last minute notice and nothing was too much trouble. Wine lift fa tastic food brilliant. Huge cocktail list! Ordered us a taxi afterwards. All round absolutely spot on! All staff were simply brilliant! Prices extremely reasonable. A must visit!!!

It's really very testy. Service at the highest level.

Fabulous service and delicious food The cocktails were amazing, and the cocktail menu was just as extensive as the food menu.

Couldn’t recommend this restaurant more. Friendly staff, great service and amazing food. The owner Ricardo is lovely as was our waiter Dean.

A great place to finish off a brilliant stag weekend, my party of ten thoroughly enjoyed a fantastic meal. The ribs were absolutely brilliant, best I have had for ages. A massive shout out to Abbie who was great fun and looked after us tremendously well. Thank you for all your efforts.

The staff are amazing and the food was great and worth the cost.

The food was awesome and the service was second to none. Everyone was happy to help, very cheerful and attentive. I had sirloin steak and it was cooked medium perfectly. Really good cocktail menu also. Will definitely come back next time I'm in Blackpool.

Absolutely gorgeous food! 10/10 .... highly recommended this place a group of 10 of us dined last night and the staff were brilliant and very welcoming very nice!

Thank you for an excellent evening food was delicious lovely staff felt very welcome will definitely be back Nia from Anglesey

Very nice place, the food was delicious and well presented. All staff members were attentive and friendly. Great spot for lunch in Blackpool!

Staff were amazing and very welcoming, extensive cocktail options and the best mixed grill we’ve ever had. The desserts… what can I even say except they’re incredible!! Love a good sex on the beach ;)
