The Buccaneer Family Bar & Restaurant

Step aboard this galleon-themed restaurant and prepare for a feast! The Buccaneer’s menu is brimming with family favourites. From juicy steaks cooked to perfection to mouthwatering burgers, and crispy chicken to vegetarian delights, there’s something for everyone.

Fun Fact: If you were to stack all the Buccaneer Burgers sold in 2024, it would reach almost 1.4km into the air, which is eight and a half times the height of Blackpool Tower!

The Sunday carvery is a standout, featuring a choice of three perfectly roast meats, fluffy Yorkshire puddings, and a variety of fresh seasonal vegetables. The portions are generous, so you’ll never leave feeling hungry.

Fun fact: 21,000 individual carvery servings were sold in 2024, which means around 2,600 litres of gravy - that’s approximately 1,300 beach buckets. It’s probably not the best for building sandcastles, though!

In addition to hearty mains, The Buccaneer offers a delightful range of appetisers and desserts. Start your meal with creamy garlic mushrooms or a sharing plate of nachos, and finish with indulgent treats like sticky toffee pudding and ice cream or cheesecake.

Parents can relax with a refreshing drink while kids enjoy their meals for free as part of our Kids Eat Free promotion. Little ones can choose from options like fish fingers, chicken nuggets, or a mini carvery plate – all served with a side of chips or veggies.

Fun fact: Over 155,000 servings of chicken nuggets were served in The Buccaneer in 2024, which, if laid end to end, would stretch 39km! That’s four times the length of Blackpool Illuminations!

Captain Jack’s Bar & Grill

While it is only open during the summer season, Captain Jack’s is the place to go if you’re in the mood for bold, hearty flavours. Their stacked burgers are a sight to behold and a delight to eat, layered with toppings like bacon, cheese, and crispy onion rings.

For meat lovers, the double-dipped ribs are a must-try – tender, smoky, and slathered in a tangy barbecue sauce. If you prefer something lighter, their grilled chicken and fresh salads are equally delicious.

The kids’ menu includes fun, pirate-themed dishes like Captain’s Fish Bites and Treasure Chicken Tenders, ensuring that even the pickiest eaters will leave with happy tummies. For dessert, the whole family can share a plate of churros with dipping sauce or a warm brownie topped with ice cream.

Coral Harbour Kitchen & Bar

Newly opened in 2024, Coral Harbour Kitchen & Bar is a vibrant street-food market that takes diners on a global culinary journey.

Enjoy hot dogs loaded with toppings, stacked smash burgers, flavour-packed oriental stir-fries, cheesy garlic bread, delicious Italian pasta dishes, and traditional British fish and chips, or start your day with a hearty breakfast.

Fun fact: Over 5 tonnes of Baked Beans were served at Coral Island in 2024 as part of our breakfasts and kids’ meals, enough to fill four hot tubs at Sandcastle Waterpark!

For dessert, head to Dessert Island and indulge in rich chocolate cakes, fruity tarts, or towering ice cream sundaes. Every stall in this marketplace offers something unique, encouraging families to mix and match their meals.

The pirate-themed decor adds a fun, whimsical touch that kids will adore, while adults can enjoy creative nautical-themed cocktails and a variety of beers from Silver’s Bar.

The Kids Eat Free promotion applies here too, making it a fantastic option for families. The spacious seating and lively atmosphere make Coral Harbour Kitchen and Bar perfect for families looking for variety and value.

Big Fish Trading Co. and Traditional Chippy

There’s no truer taste of the seaside than our unmissable award-winning fish and chips at Big Fish Trading Co. Light, crispy batter surrounds flaky fish, served with golden chips and mushy peas. Dine in for restaurant-quality service at takeaway prices, or grab a portion from The Prom Chippy to enjoy while strolling along Blackpool’s iconic promenade.

In addition to classic fish and chips, Big Fish Trading Co. offers a range of traditional chip shop fare, such as jumbo and battered sausages, pies and chip butties! Just don’t forget lashings of salt and vinegar. Pair your meal with tartare sauce or curry for an extra burst of flavour.

Kids can enjoy a smaller portion of fish and chips for free as part of the Kids Eat Free promotion, making it an unbeatable deal for families looking to savour a traditional meal without breaking the bank.

Fun fact: 195,000 portions of chips were served at Coral Island’s chippys in 2024, which would need almost a quarter of a million potatoes! That would weigh about the same as a fully loaded Blackpool Tram!
