The Blossoms — Restaurant in Borough of Fylde

I think they need a trip to the cash & carry!! “Sorry, we haven’t got any…..” seemed to be the staff answer of the day.

We booked a table for 5 (4 adults and 1 child) on a Saturday eve around 7pm. I had driven up with my wife and son from Portsmouth especially to take my mum and dad out for a meal ahead of Mothers Day, the next day.

We were told there was an hour wait on food; which seemed excessive to say they weren’t full or that busy, but I appreciated they told us and accepted it. After deciding on food, 3 of us wanted the big beef burger…. Went to order and “Sorry… we haven’t no beef burgers.” Frustrating, yet fine, it happens, must have been popular choice that day. Ordering drinks, I was driving back to Portsmouth that evening, so was on the water. I asked for a slice of lemon with my water (push the boat out, as Saturday night). “Sorry we haven’t no lemon.” Very odd for a pub. Then my son (aged 8) wanted a straw with his apple juice…. “Sorry, we have no straws”.

When the food arrived it was very nice and the staff were friendly, but just could t believe they were out of so many things. Not even difficult to pop to supermarket to get lemons and straws…. Just...

Hi firstly it was apparent that there was not enough staff either on the bar or serving food. We are guessing the same was the case in the kitchen. There was a queue at the bar to get our drinks, we waited some time. Then we were advised that there would be an hour wait for food (we had pre-booked online). Secondly the table we requested was only set for 3 and there was four of us and no reserve sign was on the table. So we had to find an alternative table. There was certainly a delay for the food. The food, no complaints - good as usual. We noticed that tables aren't cleared quickly when diners leave but are left full of pots. Which doesn't look good and affects your covers and new guests arriving. Surely in December you would expect to be busy due to the time of season and would plan accordingly. We brought our two friends for her birthday meal so did not want to cause a fuss. We are out of the UK from 8th Dec till 20th January and would normally come for my wife's birthday on the 11th January. We will need to see an improvement in service before coming back either on our own or with our friends again. The christmas decorations however,...

Sorry, I was disappointed with the food, on the second occasion I attended this pub. I ordered the fish and chips The fish tasted under cook, and some my chips was cold. I queried about the chicken wings, we only had 5 between two people. I had a similar meal, on the Friday and was given ten between two people. It wasn't worth it. I won't order this again, or maybe go to weatherspoon, who give you ten. I found meal rather pricey for what we actually got. Also, the onions rings I ordered two portions , for me my partner was undercooked. The chips used were obviously frozen and the onion rings. too . I ate some and left the rest. My partner left most of his. I cook onions rings from scratch, they are easy to do. We pay good money for food so as much effort and care, should be taken with cooking my food. I only came to blossoms by default because weatherspoon was full. I don't think I will be returning. I feel that it is kinder insult serving to me food like that. I do a great deal of home cooking such as fish and chips, and onion rings from scratch. I expect higher quality and standard of food because I am...
