Looking for something different? Browse our local dining guides to find restaurants, cafés and pre-theatre meals to suit your plans.
Most of Blackpool’s theatres are in or near the town centre, so there are plenty of restaurants within a few minutes’ walk. Aim to sit down at least 90 minutes before curtain up, and book ahead on Saturdays and during the Illuminations, when the town gets busy.
Save on your pre-theatre meal with Tastecard. Tastecard members get 2-for-1 meals or money off food at thousands of restaurants across the UK. Search for Blackpool to see which restaurants near the theatre take it before you book your table.
