What is on Queen Street itself?
The Flying Handbag is the purpose-built flagship, with a sun terrace, food and karaoke, and its listed events include Monday Mayhem from 8pm until 3am, QuizMania on Wednesdays, Thirsty Thursday and a Friday night with Miss Amber. Check current times before you go; see our nightlife guide for other bars.
Is there a good stay for quiet sleepers near the strip?
Lawrence House is on a quiet street, four minutes from the strip, with dinners on offer and a roof terrace. Q Accommodation is two minutes away and room-only, so you will want breakfast elsewhere.
Do I need to stay close?
Not necessarily. Everything in the quarter is compact: even The Dame Lane, the furthest listed stay, is 8 minutes from The Flying Handbag. Choose by mood and budget first, and distance second.
Tips
- Funny Girls is 1 to 3 minutes from the nearest stays for an early show, then walk to Queen Street.
- Look at stays near Blackpool North station if you arrive by train.
- Cabs can be found at the station and outside Funny Girls.

How the walk feels
The times in the table are walking minutes between the stay and the bar. They are short because the quarter is compact: from most stays on Lord Street you can reach Queen Street in less time than it takes to order a taxi. Walk in a group when you can, keep to well-lit streets and read our safety page.
Before the strip
Mardi Gras is two minutes from The Flying Handbag and Garlands is a little further on Talbot Road, so a classic crawl is Lord Street first, then Queen Street. The bars on Dickson Road, including Funny Girls (about 2 to 6 minutes from these stays), fit in earlier in the evening.
After the strip
Because the listed stays are all within 8 minutes of The Flying Handbag, you can keep the night going at Queen Street's pace and still be in bed shortly after. Stay in a bar with rooms if you want even shorter: see hotels with a bar.
Policies, prices and facilities can change, so confirm details with the property before you book.
