Brilliant vlog, the scene has so needed a shake up for so long, can be very clicky in certain bars. Love that its being made into the gay quarter of Blackpool and that the council are backing the hotel owners with the licensing. We know how hard and expensive it was to get one with our hotel. Can't wait to visit these bars in a few weeks as its my 50th birthday and we are off out for a full day Sunday session 🎉 xxx
Oh wow! We bet you're looking forward to that, Caz! ❤️👍🌈
I loooove Blackpool!!
And so looooove the Chatter guys!!
Keep them coming boys.
❤️💥.x
Will do! Thank you so much Stoker! 😀
About time a decent blog goad found the channel much love ❤
Thank you so much, Alan xx 💞
Hi Colin and Tim
Believe it or not i watched this vlog at a slow speed to get all the recommended places.
Why are LBGT hotels so clean and tidy, very friendly, and also do such great food, is there an LBGT guest House union that makes them conform.
Me and her that must be obeyed always look for LBGT hotels and guest houses now as they never let you down.
That last guest house we stayed in at Blackpool was cold and damp, i told the landlady id have rheumatism in the morning, she said 'You will not, you will bacon and eggs like all the other guests'

Ha ha! That one made us laugh 🤣 LGBT+ owned guest houses in Blackpool can sign up to the BAGS scheme but we think that is to provide discounts for their residents, not for them to conform to a set of housekeeping standards ❤️🌈👍
@@thechatterguys Thanks for the reply guys, then i think all guest houses should sign up to this BAGS scheme, LBGT guest houses are the best.
Chris.

Great review guys ! How dare anyone turn away our chatter guys 😯 🤷♂️
Ha ha! Although we were disappointed, we were delighted that the street party 🎉 was such a success 😃
Another fantastic guide 😁👍. Love you guys ♥️
Thanks so much, Mark! ❣️
That is so gay Mark. Oh hang on, we are XX
🤣
Thanks for pointing that out, Dave. We might not have guessed 😕
Great review lads, lots of places to try since my last visit. Will have to fix this!
Cheers LGM 😘
Very helpful vlog guys XX
Thanks so much! 😊
Have you guys stayed at Pelham Lodge yet on General Street? Definitely worth a stay! Also, have you guys been to Promenade Cafe? X x x
Hi Steven. We haven't been to either of those places unfortunately. There are lots of businesses in Blackpool that subscribers have recommended. We add then to a list and work our way through them 🌞🏨
Wow this area is definitely going places and seems good value for money too. The flags outside Mardi looked amazing 👏 Great video
Thank you DJ 🫖
Hi guys great vlog Lord St will only get better I think . We really need to try more places we get a bit caught in a routine of Peekabooze ,The flying handbag, Garlands and Mardi gras we also like for a straight pub the Stanley bar near Central pier we are back again tomorrow so might try some bars on Lord St and let you know what we think have a great time in Benni 👍
Thank you Gren! Please give us your recommendations and we'll check them out xxx 🌈❤️
It's a shame that it all looks so shabby - the street signs, the uncut hedges, the peeling paintwork, the skips and weeds in the gardens. I'm sure the bars are great inside, but outside....?
Hello MrS! We meant to mention that hedge. It was newly planted and not established enough for its first trim. Thank you for your comment 💞🌈🏨
Rendezvous is a fab place to stay x
Thank you James. We haven't stayed there ourselves but it's on our list! 🏨 xx
Also there resident drag queen in the bar is fantastic , I can't remember her name 😬
Will watch at 7 pm xxx
We hope you like it, Nigel xxx
Thanks for the video of places to stay we’ve always stayed in the south shore it’s just us because we love walking greetings from Scotland 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Cheers Ian. We intend to start covering Central and South Blackpool more but we like to stay near to our favourite bars up North so it's not far to stagger home 🏠😆❤️
I'd love to meet you guys :) you make me smile .
Aww! Thank you Dion! We love meeting our viewers 🥰
@@thechatterguys 🤍🩷🤍🩷🤍
@@thechatterguys where could we meet :) I am often in Huddersfield:) x
We're planning another Ale Trail that kicks off in Huddersfield in August. 🍻
@@thechatterguys wonderful :) x
Always the best videos thank you guys for all you do for Blackpool's gay area xx
Cheers Billy! We love making Blackpool videos, it's a brilliant town 🏨😄❤️
Such nice architecture!
You are right, Jennifer. That's something that we often overlook. Thank you for mentioning it ❤️🌈👍
@@thechatterguys It maybe that I noticed it more as the houses where I live aren’t built in that design or style. I like seeing the different styles of houses from around the world.
We do too, Jennifer 🏨👍
As a gay guy in Blackpool I've always found it extremely poor for LGBTQ and even pride this year was lackluster at best
Hi Topmandog. What are you comparing the Blackpool LGBT+ scene to? We visit lots of different towns and Blackpool is the most vibrant community we've found 🌈🏨🫖
Boys , take the dragonfly of your list , trust me 😬xx
We do trust you, James. Thanks for the warning ⚠️ 🏨
I went there a few times about 2 or 3 years ago, it was fine then
Thanks Cupid 💘 We have to say that The Dragonfly looks fine from the outside 🌈😀
I stayed there in February this year and it was awful 😖
@@james76mancs98 Me and my friend had some good fun nights there a few years ago, and the rooms were always very clean, is it still run by Scarlet & Paul ?
I thought Tim had a Man City top on and I was about to swerve in 😅
😆 Colin would NEVER allow Tim to wear a Man City shirt 🎽 but Tim would love to see any team kitted out in Scooby Doo tops 😀
I stayed at hotel riversvale which was ok but its not a gay hotel
Thanks for letting us know, Peter. You can't always tell which hotels are LGBT+ owned these days 🌈🏨
Such a mess Blackpool....looks so run down 😊😊it's a pity
Sounds like you haven't visited Blackpool in a LONG time, Peter 💘
