Reviews The Firepit Restaurant And Cocktail Bar

Have had the pleasure of dining here several times. My first visit was December 2022 and I was staying across the road at the Premiere Inn Blackburn town centre. This is relevant to my discovery of the Firepit because my room was on the top floor and overlooking the cathedral and Firepit. The square had a lovely Christmas tree lit up and looked so festive that I really wanted to eat here. On entrance I was met by the delicious smell of food and heat coming from a hot firepit which was really warm and welcoming coming in from the bitter cold. Staff were professional and lovely. Being Christmas the atmosphere was buzzing with work parties and the decor was also really festive. I was lost when reading the menu as there were so many delicious offerings that I was spoilt for choice and wanted to try them all. Pondering I had a pint of Grolsch beer while making my mind up which in itself was really refreshing and not many places have this on tap. I settled on Piri piri chicken hanging kebab. When it came it was presented on a large skewer suspended on a frame and you carve it yourself onto a wrap. The skin-on-fries, salad and pomegranate seeds were also delicious and made this dish. I have since returned trying the fillet steak hanging kebab which was equally exceptional. I have also tried mixing it up with burgers, ox cheek and steak with every meal being perfect. Next time I think I will try the sizzle steak that you cook yourself on a hot stone.

Great food, great drinks and some of the best live music we've heard in years. Blackburn Firepit is great. Travelling over from Blackpool we expected a good night out and we definitely found it. A great mix of food, music and great times. Thanks to the Manager Jess and our waitress Ellie for great service and hospitality. Will definitely be back!!

Tried this place for the first time last night with the other half. The place it's self is very modern and clean. Staff are friendly and attentive. Good atmosphere with nice background music. We got a garlic bread to share which we both enjoyed For starters: I had herb crusted scallops with chorizo which where cooked to perfection but for me the herb crumb overpowered the dish. The other half had spare ribs which I had a bite off and can safely say they were delicious arguably some of the best ribs we've had. What impressed us most was they were served with a finger bowl .. not a lot of places do that. For mains: I had hake with hassle back potatoes on a bed of kale and celeriac purée. All cooked well and very tasty .. I'm not a big fish fan but I really enjoyed this dish. My partner had the hot stone fillet steak also with hassle back potatoes.. the fillet came out seared and you finish off cooking it to your liking on the hot stone. Fillet was good quality and hubby to be enjoyed the pepper corn sauce and potatoes. Drink wise I tried a mocktail called Indian summer which was very refreshing and finished with a cappuccino my man had peroni and a whisky (guess who was driving) All in all really good experience, lovely environment, staff happy to help and good quality food .. would definitely recommend this place.

Best food ever! The atmosphere was really nice with live entertainment. We had appetisers, Mains and desserts. Can honestly say every plate was the best we have ever had! Cannot recommend enough and the staff are really nice. Our favourite restaurant ever!

If you like Steak, look no further. Amazing food in great surroundings. Genuinely feels like your in Manchester. Had the 10oz Rib Eye, 🍖delicious🍖 Peroni and Asahi on draught🍺. Staff a bit keen to lock up and get home before closing. Otherwise it would have been 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. Use it or lose it Blackburn, you've got a quality restaurant serving quantity food right on your doorstep.

Really nice place, lovely inside and the food is fantastic. Highly rate the hanging kebabs! It's a bit pricey, but a good place to go as a treat.
