The Venue - Blackpool

Most enjoyable evening and the food great. Very good service and food arrived without delay. Would recommend without hesitation the Venue to anyone wanting good quality food, well presented and served with a smile.

Family of five dining. Good food, good service, nice atmosphere with friendly staff. We had a window table which was nice. We will go back.

Once again our ladies monthly visit to the Venue was a very enjoyable experience . The food was good presented well and the staff as usual were friendly helpful and cheery.

Bright Christmas atmosphere. Friendly staff, great beer and superb food. Not the cheapest but good value for money. Always have a great time at the Venue

Used the venue for over 15 years because it's so pleasant food always excellent as is the choice. It's easy access for disabled and the staff we've always found extremely helpful.

Brilliant place, friendly staff and good food. Been many times before and will go again.

Very nice meal but vegetables over cooked. Pleasant surroundings and very pleasant staff. Good sized helpings nicely presented. Been quite a few times and will return

Visited after booking for Sunday lunch with some friends and family including a baby. Efficient and friendly staff. Lovely food. Enjoyable meal. Would recommend a visit.

The Venue never fails with the quality of the food, friendliness of the staff and the homely surroundings. Enjoy every visit. Starts our Christmas festivities off very nicely, thank you.

Great food chosen from an enormous range of menus. Good service. Lovely views. Only downside was that the heater right by our table was blowing hot air in our faces the whole time. We will definitely visit again

The bowling team have lunch at the Venue once a month which is always a lovely experience . On our last visit although the restaurant was full with lots of parties for Christmas lunches we received our usual high standard from all the staff.

Fantastic meal for my mum's 85th birthday Balloons on the table staff great highly recommend for any event or just for dinner thank you mark

Enjoyed my visit the staff can not do enough for you to make your visit a good one. The food is very good and well presented.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, however the chillie arrived and was still cold in the middle and had to be returned and the crumble was so hard from overcooking we couldn't eat it so was given a refund. Very usual for the venue because usually the meals are very well presented and cooked properly. It won't put us off going again because this is the first time we've had to complain and have been using the venue for over 12 years.

Wrong Sunday lunch dinner came out. Not offered any condiments for our meals or children's meals. Asked for mulled wine at the bar and was told they didn't have any, when they did.

Ate here with two colleagues last night and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food was delicious, the decorations for Christmas were modern and very in keeping with the building. Staff that served us both at the bar and with food were lovely. Plenty of choice from the different menus, definitely something for everyone. It was very clean and tidy, including the toilets. I would certainly recommend a visit. The Christmas menu they have at the moment looks very interesting!

Was a bit disappointed to be honest after reading the good reviews, I wouldn’t go again , I had Sunday dinner,which was barely warm, and because it was a gluten free meal they had over faced me with over half a plate full of green veg, There is no excuse nowadays to not serve an equivalent gluten free I.e. Yorkshire puddings and trimmings Was disappointed there fish and chips would just be poached fish!, again no need , I will stick with my usual pub dining where they serve the most delicious gluten free battered fish and chips

Hi WE GO TO THE VENUE AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. FRIDAY NIGHT WITH MY FRIENDS WAS AS ALWAYS A LOVELY EXPERIENCE WITH GOOD FOOD AND THE STAFF WERE SO ATTENDIFE MAKING SURE WE HAD THE MOST ENJOYABLE EVENING POSSIBLE THANK FOR A LOVELY EVENING AND LOVELY FOOD.

Great service and a lovely meal. Liked the wall decor with some lovely prints of local buildings, however the dining area needs a bit of colour and livening up. Unfortunately the window in the gents toilet was really dirty and this detracted from the overall cleanliness of the place. Overall we enjoyed our meal and the the staff were both attentive and polite. As a result we will return for another meal in the future.

Long time since we have been. Great value for money for the early bird menu. Lovely food and good selection of drinks available. Nice views over to the sea. Will be back.

The food was lovely and plenty of it. The staff were efficient and polite. A lovely evening was had by all. We would certainly go again.

Once again we had our bowling ladies lunch for ten people at the venue which was up to its usual standard of lovely food and excellent table service by the staff.

Excellent meal, could find no fault at all. Staff very friendly, efficient and polite. Had a window seat overlooking the sea. Have been to the venue many times, and have never been disappointed.

It would be a better overall experience if it was table service instead of having to go to the bar yourself. Also having to queue to order and pay right next to a table of 4 people who were eating, the table should not be there.

Excellent meal the steak was cooked to how we like our steak . The restaurant was very busy but we received our usual excellent standard of service

We booked for Sunday lunch for 7 of us, the food was delicious, the service was excellent and it was good value for money. Added to that loads of car parking and right on the prom overlooking the sea.

The venue is a beautiful place. But unfortunately the food wasn’t very good. The child’s pizza was very garlicky where as the muscles were tasteless. Not only that the lasagna tasted of nothing and the cheese and onion pie wasn’t a pie it was cheese and onion with a lid. The staff are amazing on the other hand.

Fantastic meal once again, from the service to the quality of food and great value drinks. Entertainment was good and will be visiting again soon

The bowling team consisting of ten ladies enjoyed a lovely lunch and excellent service The staff also provided extra service in providing plates forks and serviettes for the birthday cake we brought with us for two of our ladies birthdays. This was all done with a good attitude towards their customers

We have been to The Venue twice to eat and on both occasions found the restaurant to be busy but well serviced with an extensive and pleasant menu. The placement of the restaurant on the seafront enables a great view on a lovely sunny day.

Had a really good time food was beautiful,hot and tasty,the staff was very helpful, efficient full of smiles, The venue its self is clean and pleasant.Would certainly eat at the venue again.

Friendly service and excellent food. Had a lovely evening at The Venue with my family. The fish and chips were delivious. Well worth a visit. 😁

My 62 birthday party of ten was ruined when my husband removed his metal gravy boat from his plate and literally burnt his fingers. Other family members urgently requested help from staff but only one waitress helped. She brought a towel containing ice to help the burn. She later brought a burns dressing that her manager said should be used. At no point did any manager or other member of staff come over to offer support or apologies. The gravy boat was removed and a cold replacement supplied. My husband ate almost nothing on his plate. Indeed throughout kept his three fingers constantly in the iced towel. Other than the waitress apology nothing! He effectively paid for a few mouthfuls of food and three burnt fingers. All other members thoroughly enjoyed their food but we’re constantly asking on my husbands state. We have visited the Venue in Cleveleys previously on a number of occasions and have never been unhappy but I am disgusted with the lack of sympathy, support, action or recompense from any senior representative of the company.

The meal was okay, nothing special though, we felt the gammon meal was lacking extras, it was very basic for the price we paid, anyway that experience would not deter me from coming again

Helpful plentiful staff, wide and varied choice on the menu our food was excellent. Great views out to sea. Will definitely visit The Venue again.

Good food and service staff friendly food above average you would expect . The sea view from many tables enhanced our visit. Only went on the off chance but will certainly be going back for a 2nd visit.

Food was fantastic and great value for money, portion sizes are huge, drinks are reasonably priced. I would advise anyone who hasn’t been to give it a go you won’t be disappointed

It was very busy, the meal was served quickly and was up to a good standard, we’ve been many times , it never varies, good value for money.

The food is lovely, always hot and plenty, lovely views, I always feel cosy and you never feel cold. Staff are nice and at weekends at night they have groups on

We really enjoyed our visit to the Venue. The food was lovely and the staff were friendly and efficient. With a great atmosphere and wonderful view.. look forward to going again
