Fab time here the other night. Great service, nice modern take on American diner in smart purple. Milkshakes were scrumptious, flamingo burgers were delicious and the rack of ribs was fulsome (BBQ sauce was a little overpowering but others may have thought there wasn't enough so better for us to remove some than diners complain of stinginess 😆). Would definitely go again and recommend to anyone 👍🏻🍔🍟🍦🍻

Poor food, brilliant staffThe American diner experience here was something that I was very much looking forward to and the restaurant looked the part.The goodStaff – The waiting staff are excellent, even though they appeared to be understaffed the servers were constantly running around to try and keep up and looked like they were under immense pressure. When dealing with customers they were polite, friendly and professional. The manager here needs to employ more people to help with the strain.Location – It’s a great location, right on the promenadeThe Milkshakes – the milkshakes were awesomeThe BadThe food – Sorry but this was not up to par. The Mac n Cheese was disgusting and felt like it was made with powdered cheese. We paid £8.95 for what tasted like a poorly prepared packet of Kraft Cheesy Pasta. The burger patty was bland and the southern fried chicken strips were okay.The Ugly – The restrooms. Might need a pair of wellies if you need to use them, the floor was like a big dirty puddleThis place has all the tools to be an awesome restaurant. All they need to do is employ more staff, fix the toilets and fix the food.

We stopped over for a meal here while in Blackpool. I enjoy the pork ribs chips and coleslaw with sweet corn..it's a nice cosy place with bright colors and the attendants were an earshot away. I enjoy me meal here.

Very nicely themed American diner style restaurant. I had a hot dog and my wife a burger, both portion sizes were very generous and the quality was also good. Only downside is the service was very slow, took a long time for our food to arrive and also additional drinks which I ordered at the start of the meal did not appear until I'd finished.

Staff are very good, helpful and polite. Surroundings are clean and bright with a retro American feel. The burgers are average in size and taste, they are served on a plastic tray with the accompanying fries spread across the tray on a piece of paper, for the price paid I would have preferred a plate(even at fast food outlets you get a disposable box, not just a plastic tray). The trays had water drops on them, I can only assume that they had been cleaned and not dried properly, either way does not seem very hygienic.The chicken is very processed to the point that it has a pressed wood texture and pretty tasteless. I can only say that this place is average.

Was nice to eat in the adjoining restrant to the theatre where my daughter danced a few years back. Staff were great and the food was lovely. So much so, that we had to receeate at home! (The tartan tablecloth)

Wow where do I start with this place? We went for food here as it looks really nice and trendy inside and out. But we were completely misled! We were shown to our table and waited 40mins for anyone to actually serve us, we then waited another 30mins to get our drinks even though we could see our drinks at the bar going warm and clearly staff had forgotten about us all the while there was a mountain of empty glasses piling up on the other side of the bar. 45mins later we then received our food and my daughters burger was so burnt it was inedible as seen in pictures attached. Would not recommend this restaurant to anyone!!!

Nice place inside but 1hr 30mins after you order drinks and still no food. Felt sorry for the Waitress we had as she seemed to be taking on all the moaning from customer but not her fault, kitchen and management needs to pick up their game as it wasn't even half full and lots of complaints going on.Good side, cocktails are nice measures.Change the service plates and bowels aswell looks like the type of bowels I serve my dog and cat food in especially if the enamel is chipped so the plate is rusting. ☹
