"as the name would suggest, our last suggestions may not ‘geographically’ qualify as Blackpool…… but its right on the boarder (basically, on Blackpool Airport..and has a Blackpool postcode….. which makes us wonder if they’re just being posh by putting ‘lytham’ in the name lol) and one which a lot of you will pass without knowing on your way into the town. Just off Squires Gate lane is located the Lytham Spitfire Centre. For a fiver (per adult – kids £3 ands under 10’s free!!) you can look around the centre and see some of the spitfire restoration going on plus….."

"The oldest and longest of Blackpool’s three piers, the North Pier is from 1863 and juts out for half a kilometre. It is the only pier of the three to have English Heritage listed status, and like its neighbours to the south the North Pier has survived storms, fires and crashes with boats over the last 160 years. The pier was intended to have a genteel ambience, charging visitors for entry until the 2000s and boasting some beautiful Victorian details like a wrought iron canopy in the Carousel bar at the pier-head."

"The North Pier is the oldest and longest of Blackpool's piers, and is the only one to hold Grade II listed building status. Today, it's a more relaxed alternative to the hustle and bustle of the other two piers and it retains much of its traditional charm. There are a number of attractions including a gypsy palm reader, a 1,564 seat theatre, a Victorian tea room, a traditional carousel and an arcade, which is thought to have around 11 million coins pass through its machines each years."

"North Pier is the oldest and longest of Blackpool’s three World famous piers offers a mix of traditional family fun, top live entertainment and the best venue for parties!. The success of Blackpool’s first pier, North Pier prompted the formation of the South Pier now known as Central Pier, Opened on 30 May 1868, today it is jam-packed with rides, stalls, entertainment and of course the Big Wheel."

"21/05/2021: Was 30 mins late, chicken was cold to the touch and was mould on 2 of the burger buns and they had actually tried to pick the mould off so know exactly what their doing, have immediately contacted environmental health with pictures and see what happens to this revolting restaurant. 17/05/2021: Ordered peri peri chicken strips and was sent normal, rung up the next day and I was made out to be a liar and that I did not order peri peri even though my order was repeated on the phone, I record all my calls and have listened back to it and I am right. There are a large number of take always in the Blackpool area and I highly recommend that you don’t order from here, look on google reviews for this place and you will see this is a ongoing issue."
