Next door there is go karts and a cinema, bowling and many places to eat such as McDonalds, Brewsters, Pizza Hut and Frankie & Benny's.
Then, when you have eaten your fill, you can take a stroll down the pier and if you go to the end you will find a cafe overlooking the beach and an arcade with machines from the 1920s and you swap your Pennys for Old Pennys.
If you go the other way you'll find Funland and a few more rides with Golf, Crazy Golf and a train that takes you along the entire pier.

For all of Pleasureland's life it suffered in the shadow of Blackpool Pleasurebeach, that lived just across the estuary. Blackpool always had the bigger, better rides. Blackpool is like the cool kid at school that everyone wanted to be like.
Southport had spectacular value for money. There was hardly a day in the year without some sort of discount or buy-one-get-one-free offer. I know of nowhere else you could get the sheer amount of rides you got for such value for money.
It's not as if ...

- Pleasure Land Southport is a fun day out
- Cheaper than a lot of other theme parks (especially with 2 for the price of 1 on wristbands vouchers, which can be found on ebay)
- Less waiting time for rides
- Rides to suit all age groups
- Situated in nice area
- Rides maybe aren't as good as Alton Towers, Blackpool etc
- Hard to get to if you don't live in area (train links etc are poor)
- Food prices within the park are extortionate (but you will find this in all theme parks) ...

Pleasureland isn't the worst theme park in the area; because there's Camelot.
Pleasureland has quite a way to go before you could consider it worth going to Southport for, but if you're in the area or you've been to the beach, there are worse places to go.
But anyone who's experienced a US theme park (Disney, Universal) will be appalled and amused by what Southport has to offer. It's both quaint and tacky, but its not ghastly in the way Blackpool has become.
Some of the rides are well ...

For so long Southport has been the poorer version of Blackpool in terms of the pleasure beach experience. But where Blackpool has headed downmarket to a haven for stag/hen nights and drunken binges, Southport has remained relatively upmarket by comparison.
So it's a bit a surprised to find that while OK, its pleasure beach isn't as good as it should be. It has some good rides, the log flume is nice, and the few new rollercoaster's are impressive. But what really drags it down is the insistenc ...
