Bellamy’s Fish Bar — Restaurant in England

We have visited this cafe annually when it was known as The Middle Chippy when visiting Blackpool with friends to see the Illuminations. It was always really busy and great value for money. We visited on a Saturday evening at 5.45 and the cafe was empty. We were so surprised and a little cautious as to why it was empty on a Saturday evening. The menu has changed and it is now a licenced cafe. The fish and chip special has gone from the menu which was really good value. It is now more expensive to order fish and chips. The take away section appeared relatively busy with a continuous stream of people. The young girl waiting on was pleasent and we didn't have long to wait for our orders. The fish and chips were lovely and non greasy. Just a shame you now have to pay more. Inside the cafe it hasn't changed with the same basic tables and chairs and dated decor so it's not as if you are paying extra for your surroundings. Would we visit again? Probably, but it wouldn't be our first choice anymore. There is a toilet but it is outside in a little outhouse and I'm told there is no hand basin. We went across the road to Sainsburys to use...

It's part of our tradition to come here before we go through the illuminations, which started back when it was Middle Chippy. We've never sat in before, now an addition to our tradition. It does get busy so get there as it opens or else you may find there are no tables available. Service was quick and the female serving was polite and kind. Food was hot, fresh and really lovely. We had 2 medium haddock, 3 medium chips, 3 fishcakes, 2 sausages, 1 kids sausage meal, 2 curry sauce and 3 drinks. The total came to just under £60 for 5 of us (4 adults, 1 child). The picture of the fish is incomplete, because my husband has no patience and had already eaten a chunk before I could get my phone out. The fishcakes are different to what Middle Chippy served. I do prefer the Middle Chippy ones (breadcrumbs not batter, herby) but these were nice also, just different. Plenty of fish inside and a really good size. Shout-out to the sausages. They were nicer than your standard chippy sausage and a good size too! Also the curry sauce was thick and the best kind 😁 See you...

Dined inside for first time.Nice clean well laid out dining room.The Haddock and Chips were one of the best (if not the best) I have had in Blackpool,Cleveleys and Fleetwood in 15 years.Like any natural product all fish can be variable so it is understandable if quality can vary but the fact that they cook the fish properly and don't leave it floating in oil on the plate as some do,it does help consistently.I highly recommend. Sadly since Bellamy's took over in october the standard has plummeted.I waited 20 minutes until 12 for my order to start cooking and another time it took 20 minutes and I was alone in the dining room! I tried the Hake and left it as it was like cardboard.They promised a refund which I did not get.Quality is down BUT the...
