Good Food Award 2023/24: The 5 winning restaurants, cafes and fish and chip shops in Blackpool and the Fylde Coast

Established in 2002, the annual awards celebrate culinary excellence across the United Kingdom.

Split into categories such as Fish and Chips, Cafes and Gastro Pubs, the Good Food Awards are entirely based on merit, and free to enter, with the public casting votes for their favourites.

The prestigious Blue Ribbon is bestowed upon those with high customer ratings/votes and is known as the Blue Ribbon for Delicious Dishes

The highest accolade, The Gold Seal, is given to Good Food Award holders who have attained award status for three consecutive years or more, achieving consistently high customer ratings/vote.
