"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.

"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."
