Excellent. Everything about it. The atmosphere was buzzing. A mixture of families, groups of friends, couples etc. The food was great - try the lobster ravioli, fabulous. And a special mention to our waiter, Oliver, who couldn't have been more attentive and fun. Bravo!

Great coffee but rip off cake So disappointed had one of the best 'flat whites' I have had in ages BUT the "homemade" carrot cake was an absolute rip off at £7.50 and not great Serving a bit of (frozen) soft fruit and whipped cream neither of which was asked for does not justify price of cake/gateau So sad as based upon coffee and service it could be a 'go to' place for us

Service and food where both really good, we both opted for Goat's cheese brushetta and they were very generous with the cheese. What spoilt our visit was cheeky comment by the waitress. We asked for the bill, which showed our food and drinks + service charge of £3.50 which I was happy to pay. Total bill was £34 & I handed the waitress £40, to be asked "and do you want any change"? Yes, please, can I have £5, was my response, which gave her the service charge + £1, but she was effectively asking if she was getting a £9 tip.. which would be about 1/3rd of our lunch cost.... she took my £40 then quickly returned it, saying they didn't have £5 and would need to pay by card, which I hadn't wanted to do......

I was in a party of 5 and arrived on a sunny Friday afternoon. Inside was busy so we sat around one of tables outside. It appeared that there was sufficient staff on duty yet we waited over 10 minutes before we were seen to. The food for four of us arrived in reasonable time but there was a "mix up" with my order. As a result I had to wait a further 15-20 minutes for my food. On finishing our meals the table was not cleared for ages, well until we called a member of staff to come and clear the empty plates. Not the best of experiences.

Having been a loyal customer for years ,i feel i need to point out that the quality of the food has slipped of late. The breakfast when it arrived was cold, an sausage that looked more like a chipolata, tasted of nothing, bacon was more fat than actual bacon, tomato raw , and instead of a poached egg i get a fried egg swimming in oil, even though it was replaced just allowed the meal to get even colder.. when coming to pay, i find a service charge has already been applied, and just to cap the experience of they will not except cash.... nowhere is this displayed, needless to say we will not be visiting again..shame as the quality used to be excellent, put obviously trading on former glories..

A superb stop. It is a rare pleasure to find a place with reliably good food and excellent service. I would pay more if I could guarantee this, but the cost were quite reasonable anyway. I have always appreciated an 'older' style of service where plates are put in front of us without leaning across other people, where common courtesy is a matter of course. Even serving from the left and clearing from the right is a key element of quality that is so difficult to find now. I appreciated this level of service and the quality of the food - Thank you

Sadly it was a let down, we waited over 30minutes for our food and drinks and they got our order wrong and then the replacement took another 20 minutes to come out. We had the american style pancakes with fruit compote and whipped cream as stated on the menu. It wasn't fruit compote is was a minimal amount of fresh fruit and we had to ask for the whipped cream as it wasn't on the plate. The drinks took nearly 40minutes to come. The table next to us had the same issue with the drinks. We would not come here again.

Table booked for 19.30 for three adults, 1 child. Slow service starter took 50mins to come out, after this had to wait another 20 mins for main meal then unfortunately two meals were cold in the middle had to be sent back to the kitchen twice. When we received the bill they only discounted us one meal and still charged us nearly £10 service charge. Overall very disappointing after reading such good review. Sadly we will not be returning.

I would like to express a special thank you to Sue Bamber who was very efficient and friendly in sorting a small payment issue I had. I mistakenly overpaid my bill and emailed Zest to enquire about a refund after a day. Sue was prompt in going through the previous day's transactions and refunded me the excess with in 24 hrs.

Good atmosphere and always very popular, best to reserve a table in the evening. The portions of the main courses are generous with usually well cooked, tasty food. I had the salmon this time, which was a very generous portion that I couldn't finish, although it was slightly overcooked but not enough to complain about. It was accompanied by a large amount of vegetables and a delicious hollandaise sauce. The prices are reasonable given the quantity and quality of the food. There are plenty of vegetarian options. Service is very efficient, if not a little bit too efficient making you feel like you are being rushed to turn the table. Hard to blame them as it's a popular place but if you dislike that and want to take your time it would be better booking a table later when they don't have to turn it ( as kitchen service is ending). Parking can be difficult outside as this is a busy area but you can usually find somewhere on the adjacent side streets.

We were charged an extra £8 and only realised until we had already left without being offered a receipt. £20 for a small plate of salad and various hams is dear enough without the "accidental" surcharge. The staff are incoherent and run around aimlessly. Really would not recommend unless you have no alternatives, of which Lytham does.

Rushed, everything felt thrown at us, lacking finesse. Waiter constantly refilling glasses to get you to drink and order more. In doing so, he was in such a hurry he splashed prosecco over our glasses all over tablecloth. Once is a mistake, but over all 4 glasses is a joke and just careless! Waitress collecting food plates was in such a hurry she dropped a knife landing on a glass and never acknowledged it. Watch your bill..we were overcharged for 175ml wine when we'd actually had 125ml glasses. Also service charge automatically added to everything but they don't openly tell you that when they give the bill and we almost left an additional tip on the table but fortunately spotted it on the bill. This place is over rated. Its a good busy atmosphere if you like that and some of our food was delicious (but not all), but its pricey and the service should be so much better.

We visited over the easter bank holiday. I will start with a positive . The sausage barm my husband had was very nice. I ordered toast which came dry and I was asked if I wanted butter and jam, odd question I don't know many people who just eat dry toast. We finished our breakfast and I went up to pay. Asked for my bill which by the way I only noticed when j left had a discretionary surcharge already added. I advised the girl I wished to pay by cash to which she replied I could but she couldn't give me any change? Why was that I asked? Apparently they are cashless business ??? She was extremely dismissive and vague. I then asked where does it advise me of this, is it printed on the menu? No came the reply. I advised her politely that it was wrong and I was being forced to use a card to pay for an expensive £18 breakfast with the added surcharge and be happy to not get any change. I asked her to feed my annoyance back to the manager although judging her body language and total disregard for my comments j doubt happened. What would they have done if I didn't have a debit card to pay........ please stop forcing peoples choice by taking away our right to decide how we pay.... Sorry but based on this experience we wont be back. You are not the only place for breakfast in that area, alot of which would be HAPPY TO TAKE MY CASH.

Called in on Sunday after a stroll around Lytham Hall grounds for a coffee and cake the man who greeted us said we could have a table and then quickly showed us to another table tucked out of the way because he recognised the next couple to come in , we ordered our coffee’s and scones , after about 10 minutes our coffee’s arrived (good coffee ) then after about 15 minutes we enquired where our scones were to be told quite abruptly they were still in the oven.We like freshly baked scones but why not tell us they were still being baked ? Eventually they arrived quality was good , we asked for the bill some time later and after being ignored for about 10 minutes we asked again which it was then brought to us I said I was paying by card and was ignored again eventually got up to pay , no asking had we enjoyed what we’d had maybe it’s because we didn’t have our “ Sunday best “ on but won’t be visiting again in a hurry there are a lot places in Lytham to have a coffee and cake in . ( An observance the table next to us had to ask 4 times for glasses of tap water to accompany coffee and cakes !!! ) doesn’t take a lot for a bit of common courtesy .

Just popped in for a quick bite of lunch and had a really nice time. Had to wait for a table for about 10 minutes but that just gave us time to look at what everyone else was eating and decide this was the place for us. Although the indoor dining area was very busy the staff were friendly, efficient and kept us up to date on how long we had to wait. Once seated we were able to choose from all the mouth watering dishes we had seen quite quickly. The drinks obviously arrived first with the food not far behind. Although we had chosen a sharing platter for two, everything so generous we didn’t feel the need for anything more than a cup of coffee afterwards. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the buzz of the restaurant. Would definitely recommend and will come back next time we are in the area.

Cannot say enough about how good this place was for us. Great location in the very centre of Lytham. (We were going to the Lowther to see the Sweet gig) Beautifully presented restaurant, modern but also felt homely and traditional at the same time. The staff were all very attentive, helpful and friendly. The food .... again can't speak highly enough about just how good it was. All four of our party were very happy with their meals. I had the seafood linguine, and was pleasantly suprised with just how much was in it. Many scrimp on the ingredients, but it had plenty of clams, prawns, mussels and fish. Faultless. We have recently moved to Poulton le Fylde, and will certainly be returning soon.

My Granddaughter & me decided to have lunch in ZEST Lytham on Saturday 16/12/23. It was busy as usual & we found a seat outside with a heater. We then ordered our drinks and the young girl took our order. We went in at 12.40pm and as we were waiting for a while, I called the a waitress to ask if our food was coming, as we'd been there 40 minutes. We'd finished our coffees and the food arrived. I had the chicken wrap accompanied with small salad & nachos, the wrap had hardly any peri sauce & not much chicken, which was dry, charged at £12. My Granddaughter had 3 very small bitesize fishcakes with a small salad charged at £10. We started to eat our food, as we were hungry after waiting, but we were waiting for a bowl of French fries. I turned to call the waitress who was stood looking outside, and didn't hear me, she aas miles away. Then another waitress came to the table next to ours & I asked her about our fries she quickly said she'd go and find out. We waited another 10 minutes or so and the French fries turned up as we'd finished our food!😡 It was only when I got home that I realised you had put a service charge of over £4+ on my bill which came to £46+. We were very disappointed and the Customer Service was awful and the food was not as it used to be...the worst I've had in ZEST and I've eaten there many times! We'll be swerving by ZEST to go to Boscos!!

Very disappointing. Having been to Zest in the past it’s very clear after my visit last night how things have gone down hill. There was cardboard found in the sea bass dish, which the head waiter then refused to then discount off the bill. Our waitress’ attitude changed towards us once we’d addressed the cardboard in the food and did not seem to care. The toilets are also a big disgrace, unclean and really quite gross with toilet paper and food all over the stairs leading up to them. Won’t be returning.

Zest is a lovely restaurant but it's not one for vegetarians. There was very little choice for those who don't eat meat or fish on the day we visited, much to my disappointment. Beyond sadwiches and wraps there was not much for vegetarians, even the soup was chicken! So many restaurants play lip service to vegetarians and I find that frustrating and annoying. While friends have multiple choices of fish and meat dishes, they are confine to one or two options. The waiter admitted, "we don't really do vegetarian." Come on Zest you could do better.

Party of 11. Food fine but shocking service by the waiter and waitress who argued in front of us and regularly elbowed us. Additionally, tried to calling us liars saying they don't take deposits-luckily we had the evidence we had indeed paid a large deposit. Emailed feedback which was quickly acknowledged by the secretary Long with the management would respond. Unfortunately 2 and half months later I haven't received a response.

by far one of the best restaurants we've eaten in for a long while, both for the food and the service. We first stopped by the bar for a lunchtime drink. Sat outside on the terrace which was beautiful and heated. The welcome we received and the service was that good, we returned the following night for dinner and was not disappointed. We will make this a regular stop when we move to the area

Went in for Sunday lunch for two of us. One meal fine my Italian lamb was terrible. It was lamb breast rolled. It was just a lump of fat with very little meat on it. Nobody came to see if food was ok. Should have complained but then one is eating whilst the other waits. Have been many times first time disappointed.

Fabulous staff, very polite and caring. Supper food. So many dishes to choose from to suit all people. I had from the board a lamb dish it was excellent my husband had a fish curry from the board. That was the best curry I had ever had. Go and try the food it is so good.

Really busy little restaurant just off the square in the town centre. Looking at the menu it seems strange that an Italian restaurant offers Singapore Vermicelli and Jambalaya, two dishes which make you doubt the rest of the menu. If the Italian food is good, why offer food from other cuisines? I had the special Crab Mac and Cheese to start, the pasta was Penne not macaroni and it tasted more like a tuna pasta the crab mac which was disappointing. For main I chose the Linguine Portofino, the seafood was delicious and abundant, lots of scallops, squid rings, mussels, shellfish and salmon in a spicy sauce which complimented the seafood well. As the portion sizes were large I ordered Cannoli to take away, these were encased in more of a brittle than pasty which was nice but made them really chewy and hard. Overall it's a nice restaurant, the main was really good and I would recommend, the starter and dessert did leave a little to be desired.

Wow, why have we not visited here before when in Lytham? The food, atmosphere, service and ambience (that's French for, ambience) was excellent.

We went here for breakfast on Sunday morning and it was fabulous. Great choices and some unusual dishes - I had avocado on toast with bacon and poached egg and my partner had burrito - both dishes were tasty, freshly prepared and beautifully presented. The...

Got from here a few times now, the first 2/3 was perfect. Everything tasted fresh and chips were crispy and the pizza's were amazing! Last 2 times they are putting red Leicester on the pizza's no seasoning on the chips and getting order wrong. Such a shame as we really enjoyed it.

Now called L'Ora di Napoli, this is a very nice cafe to visit. Friendly staff. Superb food cooked by Italian Chef and the choice of cakes baked locally are q sight for sore eyes!
