Art Deco former pub gets nod to become 18-bedroom hotel
Blackpool Gazette
|August 11, 2025
Work is finally able to press ahead on multi-million pound regeneration plans at one of Blackpool’s most iconic pubs.
The ambitious project for the former Yates Wine Lodge, at 407-411 Promenade in South Shore, includes the creation of an 18-bedroom hotel and an extension of the property.
The Art Deco building, which is a locally listed, has previously been one of the resort’s most popular bars for decades.
But Yates closed its doors to the public on March 19, 2022 and since then the building has fallen into disrepair and become something of an eyesore.
