On a two night trip to Blackpool, we came across this lovely restaurant on the second evening., and wish we had found it on the first, as we would have had a chance to visit twice. The minute we walked in we were made to feel welcome, and the service was excellent. The décor and ambience are charming, and the... More

La Fontana was recommended to us by friends and we weren't disappointed. As it was early evening, we chose from the Early Bird Menu. Great value for money @ £9.95 for 2 courses or £11.95 for 3. Even better was £11.95 for a litre of house wine :-) Food was absolutely delicious, we were served by friendly, cheerful waiters &... More

After an "ok" trip to Paris my sister and i stumbled across La Fontana on our way home. The staff were excellent. Although we were the only 2 patrons, because of the time, we were treated with warmth and friendliness by the staff. The food was very yummy and served hot. It was a real pleasure. Keep up the great... More

We booked this restaurant for a family meal whilst on a one night trip to Blackpool. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere and decor is lovely. We were served quickly and the food was delicious. Whilst the rest had different pizzas - all piping hot and large, I went for the Salmone Rebbeca which was absolutely... More

Staff were also very comforting.... Will... More

Our family in Blackpool love this place and to be fair, I can understand why. Consistantly good food (we have been here many time), friendly staff, great service and nothing seems to be too much trouble. On this visit a large party had taken the upstairs function room (60 people I think) nbut that failed to dent the service level... More

Found the place warm & friendly and the food was first class, fresh ingredients cooked well and nice sides. The place is clean with a good atmosphere. Not suprised these common sounding hen partys are unwelcome - the town is full of lower class eateries more suited to this type of trade - go there !
