The Deacon - Fylde

Third visit to the Deacon restaurant in Lytham. Cannot fault it. We all enjoyed our meals, the service and the atmosphere. I had Cajun salmon salad followed by chocolate fondue with fruit and marshmallows, both courses were delicious. Highly recommended venue.

Booked last minute and had an amazing Sunday roast. Absolutely delicious food, but very disappointed to see they'd charged us £2 per person for gravy!!! Never had a Sunday roast without gravy, so gobsmacked to see it on the bill. The menu states the roast comes with all the usuals plus gravy so queried the bill and got the gravy charge removed. I feel like they add it to the bill hoping it won't be challenged. So thought it was worth a mention on here.

Excellent . We started with drinks then I noticed the quality of food being delivered plus the high level of service so we decided to stay for dinner : great choice too ! The starters were delivered promptly seared scallops for one dish and pate for the other : absolutely delicious too . For main course, we both had the Seabass : scrumptious. Definitely be back.

What a lovely friendly little gem in Lytham, Dave and his team were on top of their game. A warm and efficient welcome from Kyle behind the bar, Jasmine the server was delightful too. We called in for a couple of drinks and will certainly return. A masterstroke to allow dogs in the bar area as many people walk their dogs at the wek end especiially.Personal service here and top marks for customer care. Well done Team!!!!. Thank you.

The venue is open plan with plentiful seating and open booths. They offer an extensive menu of burgers etc along with a weekly set menu. We opted for their set menu, which sadly was disappointing. We ordered the ‘braised beef’ however what we were served was certainly not braised beef but rather a slice of tough beef barely chewable. When we raised the issue the front of house staff member informed he doesn’t cook so doesn’t know the term braised but he’d inform the kitchens feedback. Suggestion to management : involve your staff in knowing how the food is prepared in your kitchens to perhaps better sell menu recommendations or at least understand the basic principals of cooking ie braising and don’t forget to include the chef! If you do dine at this venue we hope it’s not a disappointment on your visit.
