We went to AJ's Bistro before a gig in Blackpool after reading reviews on TripAdvisor and we were not let down. The service was absolutely second to none, the food was lovely (starter was amazing) and the house wine was gorgeous (we had Rose - then tried to keep a note of the name to search for it later).

I've been to AJ's a few times now on the recommendation of my hotel, Windsor House on Dickson Road, and I've been very happy every time. I went just last month and was thinking it was high time I gave them a TripAdvisor review, so here it is. This is a small family-run restaurant which is comfortable, cosy yet stylish.... More

Julie is a fantastic host( nearly talks as much as I do). I think we initially went around 3 or 4 years ago, this is... More

We dined at AJ's on the recommendation of the owners of Pride Lodge, where we were staying for the weekend ... and what a great recommendation that proved to be !  The welcome was warm, the service personable, the food and wine excellent and the surroundings very tastefully decorated. The walls are hung with some very striking artwork chosen by Julie,... More

Visited Blackpool on Saturday and went to AJ's (Andrew and Julie's) for our evening meal with friends. You step through the door and it's like you have been transported to a different place as It's so tastefully furnished; this gives it a relaxing and homely atmosphere. We were mainly served by Julie herself who gave a first class and amusing... More

Visited Blackpool on a recent holiday and visited this restaurant. It was a wet Wednesday night and we were made to feel most welcome by the staff who catered to our every need - even put my jacket under heater to dry - much appreciated. Food was amazing and decor in restaurant is lovely - would highly recommend to anyone... More
