Duke Of York, Blackpool

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.
