A little bit about us…

Each pub has its own story, character, and loyal locals, but they all share the same welcoming spirit. Whether it’s top‑point sports screenings, quiz nights, or DJs keeping the party going, there’s always something happening. At most of our pubs, you’ll find proper pub grub – with big, juicy burgers and classic fish and chips being firm favourites. And when it comes to pouring a cracking pint, we’ve got it nailed. We serve up real value, a great atmosphere, and a pub experience that’s worth every penny. The Saddle Inn is the oldest pub in Blackpool. Today it is the heart of the community and is known for its Cask Ales and its warm atmosphere for all kinds of guests.
