Pier Inn Restaurant in Scarborough

Absolutely lovely place to stay. We stayed at the beginning of September for me and a family member. Two rooms £360 2 nights 2 rooms . Absolutely lovely place. Definitely will be going back. Had a lovely 2-day break and loved it 150%. I would recommend anyone to stay here

Just called in for 1 drink as we had a restaurant meal booked

Visited Whitby for a couple of days in September and ended up in the Pier both nights. They have live music every Friday and Saturday and the bands we saw were fantastic. Great selection of drinks, fantastic atmosphere and super friendly staff. Didn't try the food so can't comment on that.

Great little pub very busy location right in the middle of town dog friendly too staff we're ok

Great beer and good service. Met some lovely people.

Very nice breakfast. Dog friendly. Staff excellent. What more can I say?

Very friendly staff great atmosphere

Great bar, good atmosphere and friendly staff

The young staff outside smoking and swearing was disappointing and complaining about how the kitchen is ran. The young lad cleaning the tables was so lazy and might not have even bothered! He wouldn’t clean the ashtrays they were over flowing! Some ppl get way too drunk for my liking! The youngsters still being served when he could barely walk!

Good pub with a good atmosphere and pleasant staff dog friendly food was OK

Friendly staff, good atmosphere and food, dog friendly with a dog menu 😊

Call in for a drink very busy bar staff very friendly good location would recommend and will return well done.

Lovely pub with a great view of the harbour. Seating outside which is ideal.

Went to the Pier Inn to celebrate a friends birthday and we were not disappointed, bedrooms very clean and everything we needed. All the staff were very helpful and friendly lovely atmosphere. Would definitely recommend 👌

This place is amazing and a great location, had a really nice night,staff are really friendly and food was delicious,the whole atmosphere was great,will definitely be returning

One of the most expensive pubs in Whitby.

Friendly service, good drinks selection and nice pub atmosphere

Food was Abysmal...£30 for 2 meals which we left hardly touched.Staff were uninterested in serving customers preferring to mingle with 2 of their "freinds". I should have walked out as soon as i noticed how sticky the table was but we were hungry...(not hungry enough to eat the cold frozen beans & peas. Extremely poor all round.Honestly..dont bother.

Thus pub was really busy whixh nay have been why the food was disappointing. We had prawb sandwiches, if said granary bread but it was sliced brown, the side salad had no dressing and had almost a whole sliced red onion thrown on, the prawns were tasteless. The chips, cheese and gravy was one of the worst things we've ever ordered anywhere. (see picture)...

Nipped in for tea last night and was pleasantly surprised as to how big it is inside. We were able to sit down and order straight away. Service and staff were great and very friendly. My son is a little fussy with food and they went out of their way to help with this. The food is pub food and very nice too we all enjoyed our meals. Prices are also very reasonable. Would definitely go back in.

Food awful.....told staff specifically about food allergies and items STILL arrived on plate. A 2nd meal arrived different to what was ordered, and we had to wait ages for correct item. Then cutlery arrived much later. Unfortunately food had already been paid for and staff made no effort to reimburse at all.

Nothing fancy but a friendly atmosphere, a good pint and good pub grub, can recommend the Steak n Ale pie. The Guinness was good too :-) Decent kids menu, impressed with the kids fish n chips especially considering it's only 5.95 Didn't stay so can't comment on rooms.

Apart from the guy behind the bar who was friendly, the service and food for the price,was awful, would not go back, and definitely wouldn't recommend it, typical robbery of visitors to Whitby

Good food and service. Good location as well.

Trying to find somewhere to eat after 7 o'clock at night in Whitby is not easy unless you pre-book somewhere however we arrived at the Pier Inn just on 7.30 as the kitchen was closing and the chef about to go home for the night. The barman kindly asked the chef if he could cater for just another 3 customers (us) and he wilfully complied - Excellent service beyond expectations from both barman and chef. Our meals quickly served (2 x beef lasagna's & 1 x steak pie & chips) all of us agreed the food was lovely and at good value for money price. would definitely eat here again and would recommend the Pier Inn for decent meals at a decent price. 10/10.

Had such a beautiful weekend in whitby first time out in our campa van.

Great food and beer, recommend 😊👍

Prices change from day to day staff constantly on mobile phones. Dirty pub!

Went for a drink, both nights different price for same drink, tasted off , dirty, staff not interested always on phone

100% spot on service. Location and room we was in was looking right over the harbour. Breakfast was spot on. Above all maria her partner and all staff went above and beyond including dan. Well done to you all 👏👏

Just a kind thought to say Very Impressed with The Pier Inn with the excellent food great star five service with a smile also the atmosphere will say highly recommended place to visit it's nice to give recognition also complements from a visitor from The Biggest Party Goer in Cleethorpes from Party Paul 😊 👍 cheers 🍻 once again.

Popped in here as it appeared to be the only establishment on Whitby Harbour Road that actually sold real beer. All the fancy 'Fish n chip' restaurants just served lager or bottles. As it was, I enjoyed a great plate of fish and chips, and my partner had what she described as one of the best fish pies she'd ever had. All washed down with some excellent local ale.

Bed clean, food was delicious 😋 nice staff great view we love Whitby .

Drinks the highest of all the pubs we went into but it is a nice pub

Great location and what a lovley view of the harbough from our bedroom window,see view below,staff were very nice and the food is great,also added bonus of having live music

Great pub great bands very friendly.

Booked room with breakfast here well what can I say absolutely filthy dirty place not like the picture on website need to avoid this place it’s that dirty we didn’t even stay for breakfast after I had seen how filthy the place was don’t waste your money absolutely stinks of mould it’s rotten .

Love this place, always friendly, always great live bands on, reasonable drinks selection and prices. But please... no more heavy rock bands, (saturday 6th may) never seen a place empty as quick . Usually packed out pub emptied in 15 mins. Including our group. Oh and please get your staff to wipe the tables properly, ( with at least an anti bac spray and clean cloth. ) Other than that we all love it 😍

It's a pub . We never stayed here .

Quite simply, I just went in for a drink. Very quiet night, a nice pub. Just needs people

Great Pub food and some good beers 🍻

Haddock & chips was lovely . V good portion size

Great little pub that sells Cameron's strong arm which is recommendation enough! Basic pub grub. Car parking is impossible but public car parks are a 5 minute walk away. Likely to be busy in the summer.

Missing this place already such a great location, staff and food and room

Lovely hotel and the rooms were nice and clean the staff were really helpful and friendly , lovely view of the harbour ,very nice breakfast it is very loud the music on sat night as it live band , but we excepted that as its a sat night in town centre bar so if you don’t like loud music it not for you on weekend but didn’t bother us and my little boy slept through it so wasn’t problem for us we be coming back next year we really enjoyed our stay thanks to all the staff there

A happy, friendly welcome from the staff and manager. Clean tidy pub. Clean tidy room. Food good. Drink good. Staff good. And centrally located looking over the harbour.

Attended at the Pier Saturday 29th May 2021 at lunch time. Sat down with friends and after approx 30 minutes a young man came and took our order. We decided to order food at the same time as drinks due to the length of time it had already taken..Another half an hour later our drinks arrived. Another 25 mins or so our food started to come our.. Well some of it. Out of 7 meals ordered 4 came. When we questioned where the other 3 meals were ( all fish finger sandwiches) we were told they hadn't been ordered..? The food we did get was average to say the least..the staff were disinterested, had a complete lack of interest and clearly unable to process an order for seven people. During our time at the Pier we witnessed at least 2 other tables walk out due to lack of attention. Really poor and very disappointed.

We came here twice over the weekend sat outside over looking the harbour and watching the world go by it as lovely. The only down fall was I think the staff kept forgetting customers outside and tables outside. Both Sunday and Monday we visited tables filthy not cleaned luckily I had baby wipes handy to clean. But due to the pandemic you would think tables and chairs would be disinfected at all times. Also we had to get staffs attention to order a drink obviously because they kept forgetting about custom outside. Please clean the tables regular I'm not even being fussy but their were filthy.

Only stopped by a couple of times, but the beer was good and the service couldn't be faulted. Always seemed full inside and was kept clean in an important time.

Visited a couple of times during our stay in Whitby. Location is really good, a nice place to sit a watch the world go by for a couple of hours. Was it the best pub we visited in Whitby, no. Was it the worst, no. It was just OK! Service was pretty slow, locals were always served first. In a way, I do understand this as they are your bread and butter, but it was slightly annoying when you were waiting a while to get served. Especially with the new covid regulations, meaning we couldn’t go to the bar ourselves. That said, I do feel the staff were doing the best they could, in a very tough time.

We enjoyed sitting on the lovely terrace here for day time drinks. The location on the quayside is great, and ideal for people watching.

Let me begin by saying that this hotel is a budget hotel but is good value and worth the £90 per night that we paid for a double sea facing room.We stayed for two nights and the room was very clean with lovely views towards the sea and Whitby abbey. The bedroom we had (4) was quite small but the linen was very clean with a very good shower and the courtesy tray was replenished daily with biscuits and bottled water and tea and coffee.Our waitress ELAINE was very pleasant and helpful when we required a hairdryer, and very hard working at breakfast.The hotel itself is quite tired and access to the bedrooms can be difficult for people with mobility issues, which my wife is unfortunate to suffer from. Breakfast was adequate but no cereal or fruit on offer, but as said before still value for money. Car parking was not an issue as the hotel gives a permit to cover the length of your stay and the car is parked in a very quiet area about 5/10 mins. walk away. You can of course unload before parking.We very much enjoyed our stay in Whitby and hope to visit again in future but would probably chose another hotel due to the issue for us of gaining access to the bedrooms.

We visited The Pier Inn a few days ago and despite it being ok there was room for improvements...It is located not far from The Magpie Cafe and is mainly wood themed and has some outdoor seating at the front...I enjoyed a pint of Camerons which was good and we found a spare table... ok pub, but quite empty...Re Covid you had to give your contact info as you enter, but service is still at bar and the tables were not wiped down from previous drinkers...We just had the one drink before leaving... no real staff customer interaction and place lacked atmosphere at time we visited...

We went here twice on our recent visit to Whitby. Firstly the beer is fantastic. They do some super crab sandwiches. Friendly service and we noticed that they were Covid precautions in place.

This pub was a regular stop off for us on our last two trips to Whitby, staff were friendly and welcoming. Lovely views from the balcony area. Reasonably priced drinks and friendly atmosphere.

Wen u need a sit down and a drink this is just wot u need Either sat outside watching world go by or sat inside taking 5 mins out the sun this is the place

Busy pub on the front. Covid controls in place for customers which were good and generally followed although some people were coming in the exit door. Staff were wearing masks which they don't have to. We just wished that, if they were going to wear them, they wore them properly. Table was cleaned before we sat down but was sticky due to the spray so couldn't rest on it. Decent selection of beers.

We visited the Pier on a 2 day trip to Whitby. The home cooked food was absolutely gorgeous. We sat outside on the terrace on a love,y warm day watching the world go by. Would totally recommend this pub. I can’t comment on the hotel facilities as we did not stay here

Fab food. Great location, friendly, great atmosphere and dog friendly. Great menu. One of the best breakfasts I have ever had, lovely and hot, clean and not greasy. Nothing was too much trouble. Will stay again in the near future.

My friend and I stayed in this venue for two nights. Lovely welcoming and comfortable pub and accommodation. Furnishings and fittings in room were of the highest quality and exceptionally clean. Also room very well laid out. Lovely ensuite and very good shower. Bar area very nice place to sit and enjoy a drink. Very extensive breakfast menu and absolutely delicious. Very good value for money. Staff very friendly (especially Tim). Would definitely recommend this place, would stay here again. Also very handy for Railway Station (about 10 minutes).

Perfect, homemade chips - the best we had had in Whitby, and we ate a lot! Large pub on the harbour with friendly service.

This is a large pub easy to on the riverside just to the West of the harbour. Inside, it is roomy with plenty of large tables for groups. Due to the prime location this is a busy pub, with a mix of tourists and locals with their dogs. We visited on a wet October day and the pub was comfortable and warm. There's a good selection of well kept ales too.

We visited on what was probably the coldest day of the winter so far. The welcome was both warm and friendly.My wife and I are great fans of crab sandwiches and the ones we had here are amongst the best we've ever tasted anywhere. Served in granary bloomer bread and well stuffed with crab and nothing else. The accompanying salad and crisp just added to the enjoyment.I topped the visit off with a great pint of local ale.The negative view of the staff I've seen elsewhere on the Tripadvisor site did not match our experience. They were extreemly friendly and the food was served quickly and empty plates cleared just as fast.As Arnie would say "we'll be back"!

This is a big, busy pub situated just before the amusements on the North bank or newer side of Whitby. We had drinks in here before going to our restaurant and the drinks were very nice, beer was well kept. The atmosphere was also lovely relaxed, but buzzing at the same time.

Visited for lunch a few weeks ago. Staff were friendly and efficient and the food was very nice, I can recommend the prawn sandwich! The whole atmosphere was happy and relaxed with a lot of chatter and laughter, was lovely to hear

Really friendly pub, live band on every Friday night, definitely worth a visit, went with our two adult sons and we all thoroughly enjoyed it

Stopped at lunchtime to get a bite to eat. I ordered a burger and my wife a pizza. After waiting quite a while, the food was delivered to our table by an unsociable waitress. My wife's pizza was ok, if a bit doughy. My burger and chips, however, were cold; the plate had obviously been lying for some time before being despatched from the kitchen. I managed to disturb a member of staff on her phone and reported that my food was cold. She grunted something and walked off with it. After a few minutes another member of staff appeared by my side and asked me what I wanted her to do with it. Being too polite to say what I was thinking, I said that I'd like a hot replacement, but before I could finish, she asked if I wanted my money back. Fearing what 'extras' might be in the replacement, I opted for a refund. She stomped off and shouted to bar staff that I wanted my money back. This alerted four people waiting to be served at the bar to look across at us then turn around and walk out: more custom lost!! There was no apology forthcoming from this ignorant woman. If you're looking for efficient, friendly service and good quality food, I'd recommend that you give this place a miss and keep on looking!!

Serves a good full English breakfast , although exactly how good seems to vary day to day. There are a lot better alternatives near by and I would suggest looking before buying.

2 couples and three dogs .we all had the fish and chips and some beer to wash it down.very tidy staff very hard working .

Had quick bite to eat here and our group had a mix of items off menu including small fish and thick chips, crab sandwich, prawn cocktail, cheese sandwich and calamari. All very good and just right for a light lunch.

Stopped by for a quick lunch whilst visiting the town. Lovely location over looking the harbour. Fairly busy without feeling overcrowded. Had a nice table tucked in a corner. Food was quickly out once we had ordered and very nice home cooked food feeling. Not manufactured like some other pubs produce. Also, despite not having one ourselves, the place was dog friendly and absolutely packed full of them which I imagine was great for business as not all pubs allow dogs. Added to an already enjoyable experience

Food was good but it was over facing. Would have looked more appetising if trimmings were pared back.

Awesome food. We had the special of cod bites and chips. Delicious and excellent value for money. Kids scampi brilliant and lovely sandwiches. Will definitely return.

We called by chance for some lunch, but really had a very good meal. I was the only one who had fish and chips of our group of three, but they were excellent. A good choice of beer and quickly served despite the town and pub being very busy.

This is the first time I've been in this pub and it was definitely the last. A friend we were with drank the last bit of his pint and felt something slimy in his mouth, A slug from the glass had gone in his mouth - grose!! We informed the assistant Manager - who wouldn't give his name - and he brought the bouncers over to us. It was like we had done something wrong! The bouncers were basically rude to us and when we said we would complain they laughed in our faces. Customer service was shocking and there was no apology! Beware of dirty glasses!

Not my first time at the pier inn as I visited last year with my wife. They now have an amazing pizza menu to which I found to my tasting the gorgeous BBQ Chicken pizza. Food waa excellent and service was efficient and staff polite. Had the chance to chat the manager who was nice chap too.

I have previously had a lovely time here, but during the summer the mood changes. The table was sticky and the food had become so much less. I ordered a lite bite seafood with salad and received a very very small meal for 5p shy of £6. My Italian colleagues with whom I was dinning was appalled. "You must complain", she said, "that cannot be enough". We did complain to the teenage waitress who returned citing the chef’s instructions; it was the usual portion. I ended up feeling embarrassed that I had taken my business associates to a place they thought so little of. Lesson learnt.

I visited here on a Saturday Afternoon and I enjoyed a very good pint of Camerons Strongarm. Very good pint, nice atmosphere and friendly staff.

Had the haddock and mozzarella fish cakes, absolutely delicious, my issue was on the menu, served with undressed salad, minted mushy peas, chips and lemon wedge. No mushy peas (not a problem, can take them or leave them ) no lemon, salad with a dressing (ok I liked it) you need to serve what’s on the menu

This place was highly recommended by the friends that brought me. £10.95 for a jumbo cod and chips and mine was not jumbo. Perhaps they are having a bad day. Even the beans had lost the will to live. Would not reccomend

Not the best menu, the burgers were really nice but the chips and salad garnish were below average, the staff were busy but not really friendly, the music was overpowering , would give it a miss next time.

We popped in here for a lunchtime pint and a sandwich, the salmon sandwich was fresh smoked salmon and it came with salad and coleslaw it was absolutely crummy as was the Tuna and red onion. I would highly recommend this inn especially if you have your mutt in tow and there’s s drink for your mutt by the door.

We were looking forward to our highlight of the day, having fish and chips in the marvellous town of Whitby.

Called in and had a few pints on our visit to Whitby. It's a run of the mill pub and the food coming out looked ok. We will dine here next time we visit

Delicious full English breakfast, kippers on toast and coffee. Fair price and pleasant enough surroundings. We would recommend.

My girlfriend and I stopped off here for a drink and a sit down after a busy day in Whitby. I had a pint of Bad Apple cider and my girlfriend had an Old Mout cider. We grabbed a window seat with good views. The table had been wiped from previous occupants but was still a bit sticky with food under the table on the floor. Food looked decent as it was coming out and staff were pleasant, wouldn’t hesitate to visit again for a drink or food.

Primarily went in to get out of the rain and because they advertised it was dog friendly and we had our husky with us. Good, friendly service and pleasantly surprised at the food - much more than basic pub grub. Generous portions and homemade chips. Would definitely go there again next time we are in Whitby.

We stopped here during the school Easter hols today for lunch. We had our dog with us and were pleased we could sit inside. The place was very busy and tables needed clearing and wiping. The young lad doing it needs some training in customer service. Food took 30 mins to arrive. My ciabatta blt was on white bread as they had run out of ciabatta. My daughter is vegetarian and the menu was restricted to nachos or cheese inspired meals. Don't think we would return.

Every time we visit Whitby we must have a beer at The Pier! Dog friendly, nice welcome! Good food, great beer, nice place to watch the world go by

We have visited whitby for many years and this place has proven to be great! Fish and chips are to die for with home cooked chips! English breakfast is also great and the staff are always really friendly and accomodating! We recommend 100%!

Walked in for a drink, liked the beer. You need to be comfortable with pub culture and pub staff to tolerate the clientele and staff, however we found the atmosphere ‘entertaining’. Decided to eat here after seeing some of the other meals bought out. Basically you get what you pay for. Average Pub food for under £10 a head. If you want somewhere nicer but pricier then there are plenty of alternatives nearby.

Had a weekend in Whitby and decided to eat here on a busy Saturday night.

Had very good fish and chips whilst sitting on the terrace. Quick service by pleasant staff. Also a dog friendly establishment.

Very nice fish and chips at a nice price.Had a meal inside in December. There are tables outside for a sunny day

Just spent 3 days , had a great time. The room was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was one of the best we have this year in a hotel. Lovely staff and friendly . Thank you for a great time . We will be back next year.

Fantastic pub, great food, excerlend bands at weekends, just a fab pub full stop.fully recommended for a quick pint, or a family meal

We recently stayed in whitby with some friends as a surprise birthday trip for my wife. We came across The Pier Inn while exploring the harbour area..We felt peckish so decided to stay and eat.

We visited The Pier for a drink on Sunday 28th October, at around 8:45pm in the evening.

Called in for a dry off on a wet cold Sunday. Very welcoming and warm. Hubby had a pint of stout, which tasted lovely and had obviously been well kept. Would call back in if in Whitby again

After a lovely a circular walk from Whitby to Sandsend and back we stopped here for a drink as part of a pub crawl in late afternoon/early evening. What a disappointment.
