The Red Lion in Blackpool

Fabulous food as usual, arrived hot and didn't wait long at all despite the place being full. For dinner it is advised to book ahead as this restaurant is always busy in the evenings. Waitress Sophie is absolutely fantastic - excellent service, sparkling personality and a real joy to interact with; nothing was too much trouble. Sophie is a real asset to the restaurant.

Love going to the beefeater! Especially love getting served by sophie she is chatty, makes u feel welcome and very friendly. Normally my wife and me are shy but when sophie is there we feel so happy she has even got me to do a pinky promise with a seal to get my confidence up on things that im not confident about myself. And the food is always great as well

It was very good and our waitress Sophie was excellent. Food was delicious and served with a smile. Well worth the visit and will come again.

Lovely service Sophie was great very friendly. Food was tasty and reasonably priced. We would come back. Great stop for premier inn next door

Great food, never disappoints! Love the desserts and cocktails!! Love getting served by Sophie she Is the best! She is always so happy and friendly nuthing is to much bother for her. She is chatty and always a pleasure to be served by her!

Lovely place to eat. Food always tasty and hot. Excellent staff. The starters need to come with more offers than barbecue sauce though as not everyone likes it. And it doesn’t really go with garlic mushrooms.

Welcoming ,friendly and attentive staff. Service with a smile and great food. My steak was cooked perfectly. We got sundaes for deserts and they were amazing. Thanks to waitresses Ava and Sophie and kitchen who cooked our delightful food .

Food was lovely and service was amazing! Sophie was a fantastic server, very friendly and attentive. Will be definitely be returning

Myself and friends had a meal here I started to eat my meal and found the chicken was a bit pink So I sent it back and with in 5 minutes it was rectified The staff are very friendly and the waitress we had ( ava ) is a lovely lady and friendly

Fabulous meal from start to finish. Sophie was full of smiles, very accommodating with our requests for the meals and very attentive with keeping our drinks topped up. Our food was piping hot and delicious. Sophie G is a great asset to the Red Lion. Will definitely return when we are in the area again.

Breakfast from hell. £11 for all you can eat breakfast, wouldn’t even feed it to next door neighbour who I hate. No orange juice, coffee as weak as pi. 10 10 avoid

Great pub next to premier Inn.. had breakfast here and have no complaints...a very clean and comfortable pub,the staff are so helpful especially Sandra who went above and beyond to make sure everything was OK for us,a truly lovely lady,thank you so much..hope to see you again soon

Sophie was a great waitress.... very attentive! Food was delicious, enjoyed by all 7 of us... especially the chicken and Rib combo x

Had a great breakfast cooked by Charlotte. Caz and Sandra gave friendly service. I really enjoyed it and will definitely be back. Thanks

Beautiful well cooked breakfast. Poached eggs was spot on. Restaurant clean and tidy and girls (sandra, caz and sue) was really friendly. Not the first time ive been but always brilliant. Thankyou

I visited today with my mum for a Mother’s Day lunch. The food was excellent and the service was outstanding. Sophie was our server and she’s such a lovely, friendly young lady, she clearly enjoys her job and takes pride in making sure the customers are happy.

Brilliant meal and service this afternoon. Sophie was totally the best server and she was lovely. We will come again soon. Thanks Sophie

Had an amazing meal at the Beefeater, cooked to perfection by Charlotte and excellent service from Destiny. Thank you for an enjoyable evening.

We had 2 nights at the Blackpool (Bispham) Premier Inn. We had breakfast each morning in the adjoining Beefeater restaurant- which could only be summarised as outstanding!! Yes, whilst the food was excellent, I was most impressed by the service from both Sandra and Molly who welcomed us each day with a ready smile. Their standard of care and attention to detail was truly first class and I salute them both for their outstanding professionalism - well done indeed to both! Philip E Carter MBE MSM. RN retd

Amazing service, Sophie was fabulous and took great care of us! Food was lovely Sunday roast was delicious Really enjoyed the visit x

45 minute stay visiting family who were guests at the hotel. Not greeted by staff on entry to pub or thanked at end of visit. £85 parking ticket. Won’t be coming back.

Absolutly fantastic service 2 adults 6 kids lovley food excellent staff they make the place ....very calm and patient we have a big family and we were very well looked after

Food was nice and Lucy was great she really helpful and kind. She was extremely attentive and very hospitable. Great Meal

Arrived slightly later but was instantly struck by the Customer Service Lucy provided. Calm, efficient, professional & yet in control. We were a large party & it was a joy to see someone able to take orders, control the table & deal with everyone politely, efficiently & with pure class. Well done Lucy. An asset!

Good enough food and drink are a fair price but if you want great service then this is the place for you, all the staff were great but if you have the pleasure of kaz. Ring your server you’re in for an absolute treat. Literally went above and beyond in every aspect to make the visit a memorable one. We will be returning just to encounter her brilliant service! She made a good experience a great one

We were served by Caz tonight, can not fault her at all, nothing was too much trouble and made a special effort for my partners birthday, even staying after her shift to bring my partner a cake and candle, card and little prezzie and got all the staff to sing a happy birthday for him. So so pleased with the service we have received today. Thankyou so much!! 🥰

The breakfast is amazing and the service from Sandra exceptional- kind, engaging and always smiling - thank you for a wonderful stay!

I have been staying here for a couple of weeks and Sandra has been the most amazing host. Every morning I'm greeted with a beaming smile and she will go out of her way to look after me and will even make sure I have...

I’ve been staying at the premier inn regularly, Sandra is usually working when i go down for breakfast, she is so lovely and welcoming! She has made my trips a lot more pleasant!

Didn't live up to our expectations and we were slightly disappointed. Staff were great and very friendly, we liked the overall atmosphere and building. Alas, my wife's steak was cooked incorrectly, medium rare = well done. My burger was really dry and tasted like charcoal....

beautiful rib eyes served by the loveliest waitress , a thoroughly enjoyable meal. Thank you to the manager for sorting out the problem with our offer code. The whole experience was a pleasure

The restaurant is a great place to socialise and staff always help nothing is a hassle for them and it’s a good atmosphere for kids
