The best restaurants in Stanley Blackpool North West

We were at a funeral that day for a family member who live on the next road, we took the kids in for a quick bite, food was nice, my son asked for a sausage sandwich without butter and he got one with, which the lady quickly sorted . Not expensive either.

Lovely spot with very friendly and attentive staff. Ordered afternoon tea for our dog which was a great touch. Only marking down as I was disappointed that my soup wasn't homemade. If I'd known I would have ordered something different.

Visited with friends on ourannual trip to St Annes. Plan was to have lunch and then have a look round the garden dept and buy a few autumn plants. Mosy outside seats were taken but several available inside. We chose the one that seemed cleanest, (can you see where I am going with this), ie, the one with only a few crumbs. We chose two small scampi and chips, an egg mayo sandwich and a 'wrap', all with garnish and/or chips. Nothing too challenging about that lot. We were told that there would be a wait of 25 minutes. This at around 1:00 pm. We waited. And we waited. We had a bit of verbal catching-up to do with our friends so it did not matter. Or at least not too much. After abot 50 minutes I went to ask about our order but could see that in the kitchen area our order was being plated- up. Drinks that had a rrived maybe4 40 minutes earlier had been long since consumed. After maybe another 5 minutes they were served to us. The lady asked who had ordered what, we told her and our respective orfers were placed in front of us. No mention of an apology or the wait or even 'enjoy your food'. Not even so much as a smile. In fact I have to say that the lady looked thoroughly p..... -off, as indeed were we. Now to the food. Our scampi's were sort of ok as were the chips. The wraps were so so. My wifes egg mayo butty lacked content. Miniscule ammount of egg was made-up by maybe too much mayo, but only in the sense of this being as a proportion of the whole. By this time there were few diners left. We opted not to have a sweet as godness knows how long we would have had to wait for this. A couple of points. 1. We were fairly certain that customers who had ordered much later than us were served much earlier. 2. There seemed to me to be to be an absence of working- to- a -common- purpose amongst the counter staff. (I used to be in staff supervision and management, though not in the catering industry I have to say). Not a good experince, and importantly, one we will not be repeating. By this point, time was moving on and wewanted to be enjoying the sea air, so no time to look round the garden section. We later had coffes and do-nuts at the pier cafe in St Annes. Pleasant and prompt service and possibly the best do-nuts I have ever had, a thoroughly pleasing experience. When I read past reviews, I notice a pretty common thread running through them. I also note that in no case have the management made a response. They certainly seem not to take any of them on board

Friendly swift service, very helpful staff. Food was very nice, dealt with our requests for example, no mayonnaise in a chicken baguette, very good.

James the assistant manager and Tony are fantastic. We eat here once or twice a month. For a budget pub restaurant, the food is always on point. What’s even better, is the service. James the assistant manager is really friendly, helpful and always smiling. Then there is Tony. So helpful, accommodating and has a really good aura around him. All the staff are great, but these 2 are next level

Quality fresh desserts we enjoyed

Incredible food! The best I've ever tasted! But it's quite expensive and they're usually missing something. But good overall!

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE THEY RIP YOU OFF I ordered dessert that was priced at £19.45 on just eat it said 30 to 45 minutes for delivery when I press to order the delivery went up an hour then after 10 minutes it went up to 1 half hours. I went and cancelled my order as this waiting was too long and we didn’t have time to wait to extra hour more. This place let me cancel the order the charged me FULL price and refused a refund. So it cost me £19.45 for desserts I didn’t even get ,,,, Absolutely Disgusting

Ordered two meals and two hot drinks via a sullen faced female server. After a 20 minute wait on a quiet Tuesday asked for an update. A different sullen faced woman snapped that there was hot food ahead of us. One person ahead of us whose food came out after ours so who knows, everyone else was having cakes and drinks. Chicken BLT sandwich and chips looked good and was ok. My ‘gardeners Platter’ otherwise known as a Ploughman’s wasn’t so good. I slice of poor quality ham, 4 very thinly sliced pieces of almost flavourless cheese, one pickle cut in half, handful of salad,minus advertised watercress and a slice of white bread in place of the advertised chunk of bread. Don’t bother, choose something else. For almost £30 there is better by far in St Anne’s just up the road.
