The White Tower Restaurant in Blackpool

We went with our family to celebrate my wife's birthday and had a great time. It was an experience as you approach via a lift to this very well appointed, spacious dining room with panoramic sea views. Service was very good and the food excellent. Well worth a visit if looking for something special

Visited here last weekend for my girlfriends' mum's birthday. It was really nice, all the staff were brilliant. I had the confit duck starter and chicken main, her dad got a fillet steak which I was jealous of once I saw it, and my partner had the nicest gnocchi either of us have tasted (smoked cheese in tomato sauce). The view was lovely, could see all the illuminations and the fireworks competition was on too so we were perfectly places to watch those go off over north pier. We went in the evening, but I'm sure it looks lovely on a sunny day too! Worth a visit, prices aren't bad either!

Decent food, reasonably priced, good selection of alcohol

Estábamos visitando cerca de Fleetwood viendo a mi marido haciendo un triatlón y reservamos este restaurante debido a las críticas, y honestamente puedo decir que fue excelente. Era domingo almuerzo, la elección, el personal y la comida eran fantásticos, sin duda volveremos si estamos en la zona de nuevo. Solo quiero dar las gracias al personal por hacerlo especial, ya que también fue el cumpleaños de mi esposo.

Timeless quality ! Not a lot has changed here in the last 25 years ! Excellent service, proper wine waiter ! I opted for good old fashioned Prawn Cocktail folloed by Featherblade of beef, excellent. Had a bottle of bin end Rioja £ 20 excellent value, Will be back here soon, pity no fresh butter, lurpac portions.

The food was nice, not amazing as I had expected but nice. The restaurant itself is kept nice. The view and the facilities get marks. However, the staff, apart from one. Wow. Not what you would expect from this sort of a restaurant. Greeted by a lovely chap, such a friendly guy, full of smiles and all round what you want to experience. His name was Lloyd, thank you Lloyd you made our night in a lot of ways. The rest of the staff, could learn a lot from Lloyd. There's a small curly hair lady who is absolutely awful. So rude, so aggressive and also when the kitchen door closes thinks there is a magic barrier so we cant hear her shouting. I sent my steak back as it was almost well and I asked for rare, it was as though I had personally attacked her. I apologised and then said I asked for rare and this is not rare, she almost rolled her eyes and took it away, as the door closed I heard her 'this steak isnt good enough for this guy', a time later a new steak arrived, not right but at this point I just wanted to go to be honest. When my wife asked about the wine she couldnt understand her so asked her to repeat it and all she did was shout it at her to the point my son said 'why is that lady angry at mummy'. These things bring a experience down fast. Everything thereafter was really just a let down. The lamb in all honesty was beautiful.

It looks like nothing has changed in the venue for over 20 years, but the food and service were amazing, we left happy that we had found somewheres decent to eat in Blackpool and we’ll be returning on our next trip

Lovely food pianist playing quietly whilst you eat. Beautiful venue very plush. Don’t let the outside view of the premises put you off.

Amazing service and staff, good food, and reasonable prices. Very nice atmosphere too with a view of the promenade. Will definitely be coming back

We have been here before and it was the best food I have ever had service was brilliant but unfortunately this place has massively gone down hill service was shocking food was awful it’s such a shame only 2 tables in the restaurant and the staff was just disappearing and reappearing food was awful didn't eat much came out and bought a takeaway £75 pound to come out hungry? The coke was nice I suppose don’t know if this place as changed management or the staff GUTTED

If we’re in Blackpool on a Sunday we love to go to the White Tower for lunch and again was not disappointed, Food exceptional love all the fresh vegetables but always feel guilty that we can’t manage to eat them all . Can’t believe the waitress remembered us from 18 months ago even remembered which table we sat on . This service is always brilliant

Well, what can I say. I've been here for the 1st time for fathers Day and will not be my last. Set menu 3 courses. Good portion size and could not clear the main course veg and potatoes. Cauliflower cheese was delicious. Veg cooked to exactly how I like it, not too crunchy to break your teeth but not mushy where the life has been boiled out of it. The deserts were lovely with cheese board as an option and coffee included. We had a treat and upgraded to a garlick coffee with brandy. Delicious

I booked this for my mum's 60th thinking it was going to be a nice experience, we were pretty much the only people in the restaurant with 2 members of staff on the floor. The service was really slow and it almost felt like they wanted us to leave while there. I saw the reviews and prices so I thought this was an up market restaurant but the food was average and overpriced. As I said this was for my mum 60th and I had told them this, it felt like they did their best to not care about us. If you're looking for an overpriced meal next to pleasure beach then this is your place. Otherwise I would go somewhere else, my party and I were all severely disappointed. The only upside was because the restaurant was empty and the staff were nowhere to be seen, my nephews could make all the noise in the world without annoying any other parties.

Absolutely stunning restaurant. We were a party of 12 that visited for Sunday lunch the food was amazing from starters to sweets. There was more than enough for everyone plenty of fresh vegetables, cauliflower cheese was delicious, proper roasties there were no complaints from our party. Service was impeccable, your staff were so friendly . Would definitely visit you again . Thank you 😊

Found out that the chef is lazy doesn't even make his own short bread for the amount they charge per meal I want everything made on site not bought in

Was recommended here and shown photos of their meal which was nothing compared to ours it was a cross between a meal in a nursing home or school dinners. We ordered the sirloin, alarm bells should have struck when we weren’t asked how we would like it cooked. Chef was in a tracksuit. Were recommended by the waiter the “feather beef” (never heard of this before) but it was rancid and burnt. It was £96 for two adults and a child and I feel absolutely robbed. The view was ruined by the windows covered in bird poo this could be easily rectified by having the windows cleaned. I actually feel quite angry about the whole meal we made them aware and the waiter was attentive in asking if there was anything he could do or if we had made him aware during the meal he could have rectified it. Not possible. None of it was a La carte or home made the cauliflower cheese was definitely shop bought and microwaved. Would not recommend started to wonder if we’d booked the wrong place the smell alone of the older generation as you go up in the lift is enough to put you off. Bizarre place wouldn’t return.

Can't recommend this place enough, food was amazing, staff were friendly and and great,

We hired rooftop 525 for my daughter's 18th birthday celebrations this weekend. All I can say is...WOW. Stunning venue, amazing food, and the staff, (especially Logan) were amazing. Couldn't do enough for everyone and we had a fantastic night. I highly recommend this venue for a private party.

Really enjoyed my evening at the White Tower restaurant. Loved the retro 😍 1970 environment, and the live piano player was lovely and relaxing. Fòod was very tasty and beautifully cooked ,had the cod , 🥰. The service was excellent. I will definitely return.

Absolutely fantastic, the food was excellent.. the staff were very friendly and helpful..

I was a tourist wanting to sample a particular food and the chef graciously agreed to make something that they usually only did on Sundays. It was wonderful and greatly appreciated.

A great find for our Sunday afternoon roast. The staff were extremely friendly and accomodating as we arrived 30mins earlier than our booking. Food was lovely, and very reasonably priced. The atmosphere was relaxed, and a definite no rush service. Spent a lovely couple of hours chilling and enjoying the 3 course roast, after the hustle and bustle of the rest of Blackpool. Would defo recommend.

Always wonderful food and service, we go as often as we can. Window seats offer amazing views too.

this place is for a fine dinning experience with excellent views over the south pier.Small but well proportioned menu a good reasonably price wine list and a good range of spirits Never confuse cheap with value for money and this place gives value for money Scallops,lamb cutlets 2 veg,cheese and biscuits 2x large G&Ts bottle of Malbec each 3 single Curvoisier XO and coffee £90 a head is good value add the fact that the food was delicious and there is seating area to enjoy a cigar brandy and coffee made for all round excellent evening Thank you to all at the White Tower Richard

Lovely place to eat. Great tasting food and service. Pay that little bit extra in a nice restaurant and get great quality food.

Went for wife's birthday. Staff were excellent. Portions much bigger than expected

In a league of its own! Sublime food and amazing atmosphere!

Great dinner venue i love the feel in here, so relaxed , service is fantastic

Great food and great views... Best place to eat in Blackpool.

Myself, partner and two daughters went here today after a little birthday treat for my daughter to the water park. We were all blown away. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was outstanding. We are not locals, however, if we have another trip to Blackpool, we will definitely dine here again. We all highly recommend! Thank you very much to the team for going above and beyond during our visit!

My partner booked for Valentine's and it was fantastic. My first time here.

We luv this place. Friendly staff ,take time to chat & be friendly. Makes your visit more special. Always the best service & amazing food. Never change.

Well..a throwback to the 80s..lol..decor.. sunken bar.. prawn cocktail..lol..staff really nice and attentive..not many in for a saturday night..stunning views of Blackpool front..just one issue..battered onions sent back as they were luke warm..and my wifes food was not hot..big expectations and let down for the best part of the night..we even asked for really hot plates..this may have helped..used to visit here years ago as we are local..and it used to be a fav restaurant..sorry but the food let the side down..the steak was knocked off the Bill with a sarcastic comment about cold steak!!!so will not be going back..I don't think Mrs Thompsons food would have been served like this..😒😒

Had a party here for a friend & loved it. It's a really quirky place built into the Pleasure Beach. It's a bit old fashioned but that is 100% it's charm. Great views of the promenade & lights from the restaurant both indoors & outdoors The staff were great! Their cocktail making skills were superb & they had plenty of energy - especially the young cocktail guy (I am sorry I didn't get his name) Great night! X

What a hidden gem of a find in Blackpool. We tried the White Tower on the recommendation of our B&B host and we can say that we were definitely not disappointed. The food, ambience especially with in house pianist tickling away at the ivories made for a great evening. The staff were very good not too intrusive but ensuring that everything was OK. Then the prices were so so reasonable. Would definitely recommend the White Tower to dine in Blackpool if you want that bit of extra quality for a night out.

Lovely restaurant, very friendly staff and amazing food. Great view too!

A little gem of a place came to Blackpool for a day out with a date booked this restaurant in advance it doesn't look like much from the outside but inside its a nice quiet very clean restaurant lovely food staff where excellent only thing is water should be free other than that it was all good my date loved the place

Very professional staff;- from the Manager Mathew and his deputy Logan, to the various staff and waiters! Birthday celebration for 16 guests went off a treat! Excellent food and drink at very reasonable cost! Great atmosphere and well maintained premises! Would highly recommend this restaurant!!

Date night last night after a very busy few weeks Not been here for.....far too many years, its been off our radar for some reason and let's just say we were absolutely blown away. A warm friendly welcome. The service was outstanding. Attentive professional staff and obviously well trained. Wonderful ambiance. Stylish decor. It did feel like we went back in time (not a bad thing!). Tables well distanced. Food presentation and quality was exceptional and what surprised us the most was the prices. Extremely well priced for food and wine in such an up market restaurant. And what a view #blackpoolilluminations it has to be one of the best views in town. A great spot for enjoying the lights and the international fireworks. If you are looking for somewhere special to eat definitely consider The White Tower. We will most certainly be back. Just at the entrance to The Pleasure Beach and up in the lift to second floor. Apparently they do a great Sunday lunch. They do have a resident pianist but not sure what nights they play, sadly not last night and I resisted the temptation much to my husband's delight 😉

Amazing restaurant, best on the Fylde coast, well worth a visit. A traditional restaurant with amazing food, views and staff. Real food cooked by professional chef’s that know there skill. Will definitely visit again. Thank you.

Really lovely Sunday lunch. Good choice on menu. Friendly staff. Carparking behind the White Tower is free if you're dining at the restaurant

Very good value X great view for the air show

Excellent beautiful a little expensive but worth it lovely for a romantic tic evening with your other half

We saw faulty towers experience and it was brilliant

Excellent food service staff Well done to all

What can I say, Logan is incredible at his job nothing was too much trouble. The food was incredible we was a party of 22 and every dish was exactly how we requested. Thank you!

We arrived in Blackpool on a Sunday and we had such a lovely lunch here last year made sure we booked again. Although it’s in need of a little TLC the food is excellent we both had the Pork terrine for starters , my husband...

We came here for our Valentine's meal. It's Blackpool's best kept secret. We couldn't get a table initially but they took my details in case of a cancellation. One person's Covid misfortunewas my blessing. The restaurant is at the entrance to the Pleasure Beach with a lift to the restaurant. The staff are attentive - or not if you like to be left alone. On entry you pass the bar and the pianist. The tables are nicely spread out and well laid out. We started off with prosecco and then I had red wine with my steak. The food was amazing and enough vegetables served in side dish to feed even the biggest of appetites. I can't wait to go back.

Beautiful little gem, amazing service, food to die for. We will defintley be back on our next stay over in Blackpool. Thanks for a lovely evening

Lovely meal with great service, will return

Very good service food was great to

Great service, great view ,classy food ,loved it ,staff stunning.

this place in horrendous i have been in and out the toilet and the staff are very rude and try to flirt with young children i do not recomend this place at all

Well where can I start I will start with this so called high end restaurant first having to walk up 5 flights of stairs because the lift was out of use then to be welcomed by a man that had less teeth than a jeremy kyle guest then to be seated to then realise we could not see out of the window because there was that much bird poo on them then what caught my eye was the brake dancing fly that looked like it had 2mins to live then to also realise there was no person playing the piano which we expected to then realise there where playing some sort of rave music in the background the only thing missing at that point was the glow sticks and some person in a corner blowing a whistle but apart from that the service was great and also was the food.
