The other 238,000 where on Lytham beach - watching for free.

It says " wild claims from other media sources that the attendance was 150,000" not the council.

There was a bit of a fiddle going on at the gate!

Saids Shadow People where sneaking in and all those pesky illegal immigrants who land on the beaches and the Vietnamese Boat People where included.

Seating is about 150. The place is open 12 hours a day. Allow 30 mins from, ordering cooking eating and getting out per customer = 14400 customers with non stop serving and no time to sit and relax - possibly 7,200 customers in four days, but more realistically around 2000 maximum. If anyone is quoting tens of thousands - those stall holders have got a hell of a lot of tax to pay when the HMRC hear that.

Seating is 320 indoors with additional seating outdoors according to the original marketing brochure.

Isn't that the same councillor that said the Delta variant was no more contagious at all when first detected in Sefton? Intelligence briefings a bit lacking

the noise ,the noise.will stick to my local bistros and restuarants,that ork hard at service and true gastro delights,sorry but not impressed with its experience.

The market is doing very well for its first weeks. Give it a chance. Maybe Said could put the name of his company’s on here. He such an honest chap. We could see what tax he is paying. Company house etc. Surely he won’t mind?

The noise of lots of people enjoying themselves?

I've been 3 times during the week at 3 different times of the day and I have been unable to eat on every occasion because it's absolutely rammed with no seats available. If the stalls are saying they have sold 15k meals since it opened, I can well believe it.

Makes me laugh, all the whingers and whiners on this site crying foul because the food hall would appear to have got off to an amazingly successful start. If the place had been deserted and no one was visiting it would be ‘Told you so, another fascist politburo white elephant from the council’.
Some people just aren’t happy to see that Sefton’s idea could be a sure fire winner.

But nobody know where it is and there's no car park...!

It wouldn't be my choice of place but good luck to the people in there,

isn't it run by the man who has the Bold amongst others?
