Reserved a table for our party of 6 people but later told we'd need to move as they were having a party there and using our table for the buffet. Food was OK but overpriced and had better for less.

Visited on Sunday 13th October. My wife ordered the Sunday roast which consisted of two roast potatoes which were frozen and not home made. Two slices of beef, one over done floret of brockley, a spoonful of cabbage and a slither of parsnip. One massive Yorkshire pudding which covered most of the plate. The whole meal was luke warm and basically not enjoyable at all. I ordered the beer battered fish and chips with mushy peas. The chips weren't homemade the peas were okay but as for the fish, I've found more fish in a fish finger. They should advertise it batter and chips. I left the half of it and needless to say we won't be returning.

We have been a few times and the food has been great but the last visit 4 of us ate and 3 of us left most of ours. Not much value for money either. Not sure if it was a bad day or something has changed

We booked the wake for my mum's funeral at 10.95 per head we booked the food for 40 people so nearly £440 . Then we was charged extra for a flask of tea and coffee and £20 for a gateaux. Only 24 people came to the wake and there was barely enough food to go around, 3 plates of sandwiches 1 plate of pork pie and sausage rolls 12 halumi sticks 12 spring rolls and 12 chicken wings the salad was a joke a soup bowl with enough lettuce for 2 people, every sandwich was covered by Branston pickle. The gateaux never arrived, no serviettes no replenishing of anything. It looked like they had nipped to Iceland and then said that will do probably £40 of food. Absolutely disgusting to charge £440,I would hate to see what the cheapest option consists of, we paid for the middle one and got left overs by the looks of it, they should have been ashamed of the quality. Also the chairs need throwing away all stained with paint and god knows what else

Brilliant time in the abbey, been my local for over 10 years and have seen all of the landlords/lady’s come and go although tonight’s experience was great! I’m not sure of the shift managers name who was working this evening although he accommodated for us as though we were the most important table of the evening, his and his staffs service was impeccable! He adjusted things to our needs without any hassle to make sure he gave myself and my family the best dining experience! Food was outstanding as always and clear plates all round! Keep doing what you’re doing, by far the best owners yet!

Once again outstanding service and hospitality from the staff at the Abbey..we booked in for a Sunday Roast.. on arrival we were greeted by Joanne who led us to our table..once seated I headed over to the bar to order our drinks and Roast dinner ( thanks to Caitlin for suggesting the delicious cauliflower and cheese sauce) that complimented the outstanding roast dinner and the huge delicious Yorkshire pudding..thanks to Emily for looking after us she was very polite, nothing was too much trouble for her, always making sure we were enjoying our meal .. Honestly one can't fault the Abbey, Jill the General Manager also made time while the pub was busy to come over and have a chat to ensure everything was to standard.it's always nice to see Management engaging with guests..Big thank you to the kitchen team for the outstanding roast dinner that was absolutely delicious

We celebrated family member's 70th birthday and had a booked table. The young members of staff were amazing. Very accommodating and helpful, however.... The monk fish and cod were very very wet inside not moist - wet as cooked from frozen type, not hot either. Chips, salad amd mushy peas fab. Another downside was lack of brown sauce. I am fair and being in Whitby at least 1-2 times a year may give Abby Wharf another chance to get the food bit up. Not the monk fish though - pointless exercise...

Popped in for lunch as it's been a long time since I've been here. So glad we did. Had a lovely lunch in lovely surroundings and it was calm and relaxing. The staff were nice and friendly and what we didn't realise was that dogs were allowed in so we will definitely be back with our two for a meal again soon.

I’ve been excited to try the new menu and was chuffed when I could book a table at short notice. Small plates were really tasty and my husband enjoyed old faithful gammon, chips and eggs. We both passed comment on how lovely the atmosphere was - especially on a Wednesday night. Our waitress, Emily was very pleasant, recommended some dishes for us and informed us on the new Sunday night quiz night and breakfast menu, both I’m looking forward to trying! Lovely food and great staff, thank you!

Had lunch with a friend Monday 11th September. A couple came and sat at the next table. They had two dogs with them that I hadn’t noticed until the dogs started snarling and barking at one another. I froze in fear of a dog fight starting. I feel that if dogs are allowed in, there should be a designated area for them away from diners who have a fear of dogs and If I’d realised it was dog friendly I would not have dined there. The food and service were good but I won’t be returning.

Went with a couple of friends for tea. Food was lovely, both me and one friend got the garlic cheese baguette starter, was hot and very enjoyable, my other friend got the halloumi bites and she said they were very good. They both got the cheese and onion pie with chunky chips, I got the tikka masala with rice. Once again all three meals were hot and cooked very well. Enjoyed it all. Bought a couple of bottles of wine to share and they are £16.95 a bottle for standard house red/white/rose or £30 if you bought two together. All in all a lovely meal and a really nice atmosphere, service was great and the young lad who served us at our table was very pleasant and polite. As were all the staff we encountered.

They were lovely, as my F-i-L also said (another Stilton disliker) Starters and mains, all unfaulted from a table of 5. My daughter was disappointed there was no sticky toffee pudding left but I suppose that shows how good it is and she'd already polished off chicken gyōzas and a 10oz gammon 🙈🤣 Drinks reasonably priced and a great selection.
