'What an absolute treat'- Darts star Luke Littler pays visit to Michael Wan’s Mandarin in Blackpool

Darts superstar Luke Littler was spotted out and about again in Blackpool, this time enjoying a meal in one of the Fylde Coast’s most iconic restaurants, Michael Wan’s Mandarin.

The reigning World Champion, who is in Blackpool for the ongoing PDC World Matchplay Darts Championship, visited the restaurant last night (Friday, July 24).

In a post shared on Instagram, Michael Wan’s wrote: “What an absolute treat for the darts-mad Mandarin team tonight to meet world number 1 Luke Littler.

“We play a ‘Mandarin Premier League’ between the staff and he was even kind enough to sign the little trophy we play for. Wishing you all the best tonight… and in the final.”

Michael Wan’s is more than accustomed to welcoming celebrity guests.

Fellow PDC favourites Owen Binks and Kirk Bevin’s enjoyed a meal last Sunday, and comedian James Acaster visited the restaurant in April 2026.

Darts player Littler was also spotted enjoying another Blackpool staple earlier this week when he went for an ice cream at Notarianni’s, ordering a Cream Egg Milkshake and a Sundae for his girlfriend Faith.

He will return to the Winter Gardens stage tonight (Saturday, July 25) to face Dirk van Duijvenbode in a semi-final clash.

The other semi-final will also take place tonight with Gerwyn Price facing off against Gian van Veen.
