We have visted this pub every time we have stayed in Blackpool and have had some wonderful times Weather you want to watch any sport or a place to spend time with friends this place is ideal Be sure to try there food varied amount of choice on the menu and every meal we have ordered has been excellent and defiantly value for money The staff are very welcoming and helpful The pub has a great atmosphere for all to enjoy I am sure it's a place we will revisit time and time again Keep up the good work guys And as normal our compliments to the chef 10/10

Reasonably large Thwaites pub with a 'U'-shaped layout with several raised areas and two pool tables. There is also some reasonable seating outside (if the sun is shining, and there aren't too many raucous stag night/hen party crews passing by). Several large screens for the TV sport. I counted three handpumps, but these are scattered along the bar so there may be more that I didn't spot. Real ale included the well-kept but distinctly curious new brew called Seasiders Special at �2.85 (which may become an acquired taste for fans of the Tangerines, but not further afield I suspect). Overall, considering what most of the other pubs in the centre of Blackpool are like, this one is pretty good.

On our recent visit. my wife asked a barmaid if she could order some food and was told. "Make it quick, I'm busy!"
We left!!!

A Thwaite's pubOpted for a �2.50 pint of Thwaite's "Red Nose Bag" charity beer!! Got given a receipt which is never a sign of a great traditional pub,but still well worth a visit, 7/10

very near to the hotel i stay in so very handy to watch the football on the the 2 large screens. aslo good for a game of pool and a quiet pint on weekday afternoons, really nice food, little pricey on food and drinks even for blackpool and i do find some of the staff a little rude.

Contrary to what I have just read by a previous writer, a group of us mixed ages from 23 to 78 years of age spent a very pleasant evening in The Duke of York last Sunday. We found the Landlord and staff very helpful and welcoming. We had a game of Pool and Snooker, also later there was a quiz with prizes after which there was a Karaoke Evening. No budding Russal Watsons or Will Youngs but quite entertaining. Later the Comparer gave a short recital on the new Wurlitzer Organ very good. Looking forward to our next visit, when the Gentleman plays the Organ on Wednesday afternoons from 2 until 4pm quite a star really as when he is not at the Duke of York he plays at the Tower Ballroom. I would however agree with the writer in that the beer was very good, in particular the draght bitter.

Pub is fine, good beers bit pricey, Landlord is arguementative bstard though. Dont ruffle his feathers he is fond of barring people. Not me I hasten to add, witnessed him barring someone, for a very very minor offense.
