CASK – Layton
Layton is situated on the outskirts of Blackpool’s centre, bordered by Bispham, Grange Park, and Marton. A visit to Kingscote Park is highly recommended during your visit. This park features a historic cemetery that is the final resting place of notable individuals, including Ada Boswell (Queen of the Gypsies), Gerald Richardson (a murdered policeman), and several service members from World War I and World War II, including Polish and Royal Yugoslav Air Force airmen from the latter conflict.

CASK Micropub – Layton opened in November 2019 at 9 Layton Road, Blackpool, in a building that had previous uses as a pet shop, and before that a greengrocer. The simple shop layout made it an easy place to turn into a cosy one-room pub. Since opening, Cask has settled in as a laid-back local spot and added a bit of life to this part of Layton Road, giving a long-used retail space a fresh purpose.
Inside feels laid-back and welcoming, with exposed brick walls, warm lights and a simple mix of stools and little tables scattered around. The big front windows keep it bright, while the bar area has that friendly, slightly cluttered charm with postcards, chalkboards and bits and pieces that give it character. The teal bar really stands out against the white tiles, and the whole place has an easy, unpretentious vibe — the kind of spot where you wander in for a quick drink and end up staying because it’s comfortable, relaxed and just a nice place to sit and chat.
