The Frigate in Scarborough

Great little pub ,good pint as well

I went on holiday with my husband, my daughter and her husband and their kids and they were Smoking near them. Do not go especially if your going with people with asthma. STAFF ARE LYING SINCE CHRILDREN AEE ALLOWED ON THE BENCHES OUTSIDE. Although outside is a smoking area, we wanted to go to a quiet place after having problems with the trains and it does show staff prioritise their addictions instead of customers.

I went here with my wife and a staff member was smoking near my kids and I hate it how they think they can damage other people's health just to feed their addiction.

Best pub I’ve been to in Scarborough. Cosy and tasteful without being hipster or stuck up. Good cask ale selection.

Great find. Tucked away near the front. It's not the biggest bar. But that makes the cosy atmosphere great. Lovely and friendly

Excellent very friendly little bar with a big welcome,the mulled wine & mince pie really hit the spot as did hubby's pint! Wish we found at the start of the weekend in Scarborough not the end! Will definitely use again next time we visit 😊

Lovely little bar. It's near the tourist area but feels off the beaten path as it's not directly on the roadside. It's very small but it feels very cosy and welcoming and there's some nice outdoor seating. I was pleased to see they have a full selection of Lillies cider. We stayed here for a few drinks to relax after a long day. The barman is really nice and friendly and the atmosphere is very homely and relaxing. Definetly my favourite spot in Scarborough for a drink.

Awesome ale house. Great selection of beers and ciders, plus a couple of non alcoholic beverages (Guinness zero, Koppaberg etc).

We did not eat. But had a lovely evening. Stopped for one drink, and then stayed the evening. Made lovely friends. A great atmosphere

A nice very small pub. Only opens, Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sunday. The Frigate is a nice pint

Utterly terrible. Don't bother falling over accidentally or you will be barred. Owner also discussing weed with his group of mates at a table and was very rude and abusive. This place needs a drug raid as something clearly going on more than serving alcohol

Stumbled across this lovely, quaint bar on our first visit to scarborough. Great quality beers and friendly vibe. Tables outside if needed but you wouldnt want to be drunk coming down the steep pathway 😂. Loved our visit and definitely the best drinks we had on our holiday. Highly recommend the beers with a nice packet of crisps.

Lovely little boozer sat in bullshit corner whoooosh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🐕♥️👍🍻

Called in 'by accident' when I noticed it a couple of weeks ago. A lovely little bar, really friendly and well run with friendly staff and customers and a really nice 'vibe/feel'. Good range of drinks and a nice spot. Definitely worth visiting. I popped in again and it was just as good.

Nice little pub but let down by the couple who run the place, i ordered some drinks took them to the table and one of the drinks had a small fly in it, so i returned the drink to the bar and told the lady who served me that there was a fly in the drink, whose reply was 'well it must have got in there when i walked back to the table as there are lots of flies around' she never apologised just took the glass off me and poured another one, at that the barman who i assume was her husband said to her 'whats wrong with the drink' and i said there was a fly in it' he then mumbled something to her and continued serving. Very poor customer service indeed and pricey drinks as well, and certainly wont return there again

From what I could make out this is the best pub in Scarborough. Very good ales and lagers and a friendly welcome from staff and regulars for a solo drinker. I came across some shocking pubs in Scarborough and this saved the day

We found this little bar as we were walking around looking for a pint. We popped in for one but ended up staying there the rest of the night. Very friendly bar, friendly staff and customers, lots coming in with their dogs. Definitely will go back next time in Scarborough.

Real friendly staff only when in for drinks but nice little place

Cosy local with a good selection of beers and great service from the very friendly team. Ship-themed decor and a small patio with sea views. The Thursday music quiz night was perfect for drinkers in their prime!

I was passing and stopped for a glass of wine by myself. Such a friendly pub and I ended up staying for the pub quiz. Great put and really lovely, welcoming atmosphere, will definitely be visiting again.

What a great place, it’s only small but boy does it bags of character.

Great pub great welcome perfect location and no kids allowed -perfect Owners very welcoming What a quirky charming place 100% go back

old school banter was and is a pleasant surprise in a world that is distancing itself from social interactions that only put smiles on faces. Lovely pub Bang on beer and cider What more can you ask for?

Lovely little bar, run by a lovely lady. Only small but it has atmosphere!

The frigate was a really lucky find. We received a really warm welcome and the atmosphere was just great, everyone chatting to each other even though we were strangers. We really felt like locals.

6 stars. What an amazing little pub! Good selection of beer, cider etc. Great location just off the beaten track by the harbour with a view of the sea. Owners Marie & Den (and Benson the dog) are absolutley lovely and really made our trip a great one. Aslo opening the pub on their day off so we could watch the England game. The locals are very friendly as were all the other people we met in there. The relaxed atmosphere creates a great enviroment were everyone is happy to talk to each other with Maries great music playing in the background. Had a great laugh and I will miss popping in there. Cant wait to visit again in the future.

Cool bar, which is quirky and small. Friendly service good selection of drinks. Near the seafront with outdoor seating. Well worth a visit.

Great pub! Very welcoming and good ales. The publicans are truly wonderful! They welcome both saints and sinners without prejudice 🙏

Lovely cozy place. The owner is very nice and fun to chat with to learn about the local town!

Friendly, relaxed pub. Dog friendly. Helpful staff. Well worth a visit

Brilliant pub, lovely owner and great for dogs!

Top quality place. Great location and friendly staff. Dog friendly and very accommodating. Would come again 😎

Lovely little pub, dog friendly and really good prices.

Good little non-pretentious pub.

Very friendly and a place we will revisit again. A good choice of beers and well priced. A great evening had with friends.

Superb little pub. Definitely my favourite in Scarborough. Allegedly the best pint of Guinness on the east coast. I’d certainly recommend testing that theory here. I tried a few and def best in Scarborough. You’ll certainly leave with a smile on your face.

Great pub fantastic hosts but no discount for derby fans but marie kept my bullterrier happy with treats see you day after boxing day

Great pub and hosts and dog friendly marie kept my bullterrier happy with treats but no discounts for derby fans see you both the day after boxing day best pub in Scarborough

This was a great find. Very friendly and welcoming. Good selection of beers. Quiz was really good fun. We walked in for 1 drink and ended up in a quiz team and had lots more than 1 drink! Thank you for making our weekend!!!

Great little find, good beer good people. Well worth a visit.

We wandered into this quite small and cosy pub on a Thursday evening, the quiz was already in progress so we tried to make a swift exit, but they insisted we should stay, join in or not. We ended up having a really lovely evening, everyone was welcoming and friendly - and funny. We didn't do the quiz but we did play Irish Bingo. Give it a try if you're in Scarborough.

We were told about this place by our Host at the Almar and we tried it out and it is a good little bar to try, it is small and cosy but the Beer is great, and you are made welcome as soon as you enter

Popped in for a quick drink stayed for two. Great range of ales affordable prices and realky friendly atmosphere, will defo visit again.

Sweet bar, sea views, friendly staff and good beer - what more do you want?

Gem of a find over a new year break. Friendly welcoming staff, good choice beers, thoroughly recommend

Lovely place for a drink! Great atmosphere and always a good selection of drinks! Mulled wine is great!

Great bar for beer, wines, and a chat

Fabulous little cozy pub,great choice of real ales, cider and spirits, landlady was very sociable, lovely view too!

Fantastic friendly pub made to feel welcome and some very well keep cask beer on

Nice cozy pub enjoy calling in for a quick pint.

Nice little pub,good atmosphere nice Guiness

Lovely little pub ran by nice people. Will be back.

Friendly bit quiet when I was there

Visited last night with work colleagues. Took part in the quiz great fun. Extremely friendly place. Loved every minute will be back Made my night northern soul part of quiz.

Scarborough's pub of the year. Say no more. Not the biggest but some outside seating. Packaged sandwich and crisps for £3 to help the ale down. Thursday quiz night.

Cracking little bar good beer very friendly place

Great wee pub. One street away from the madness and feels very peaceful. Dog friendly too

Finally found a pub in Scarborough I liked! Very friendly,Great service, company & Ale. Definitely worth a visit. Next time I'm in that neck of the woods I will

A great pub with unique style. This pub is very small and quaint but had lots of character. The staff are friendly and the beer is good. It is a change from the formulaic pubs in some towns. Worth a visit.

Lovely little local pub with a wide variety of drinks. The staff were extremely friendly and more than happy to allow my husband to sample their real ales before he chose one. The atmosphere was friendly and lively without being overwhelming.

Amazing choice of flavoured ciders and a proper strong arm for him. A brilliant holiday find. Great welcome too 😃

Small local pub great atmosphere lacking on drink choice

A modern clean bar with a great selection of beer, wines & spirits. Located just off the seafront its an excellent stop over on the way up to the Castle. Or vice versa.

Great service from very friendly staff and the beer is first class. Well worth a visit.

Lovely pub with sea view, very friendly welcome, and excellently kept real ales. Tables outside, a Thursday quiz that comes recommended, and it's also dog friendly. White Rat ale my favourite beer, and is regularly available, so I was well satisfied 😁 And the landlady kindly filled our water bottle before our train journey home. Highly recommended.

Nice little pub in Scarborough never thought about going in there before nice 🍺

A fairly new bar just off the seafront. It has a good selection of draft beers. It's a small hostelry with a couple tables outside.

What a fantastic little place. We went in for the Thursday quiz night which was fun but also we were made very welcome. Really nice staff and atmosphere. We are planning on visiting here on all our next trips to Scarborough.

Great little pub with great beers and lovely host. Quiz night on Thursday.

We visited late on Friday night and were made very welcome. We will be back. Roy&Chelle from Stockton kn Tees

Really nice place to have a few beers

Great little place. Friendly staff and a good range of drinks. Usually 3 real ales on. Check the opening hours before visiting.

Wanted a quiet drink in a 'real' pub. No music, just good beer, service and company. Good find will definitely be back.

Small little pub, but friendly service from the lady at the bar, and seems relaxed in here. Football is on the TV, but gracefully not too rowdy or boisterous. The Marmalade Porter ale at 5% abv is a lovely drop. I didn't try any food (if they serve food?), but I only nipped in for an ale.

Fantastic small but excellent place just at bottom of bank near sea front and great real ales at good prices and a good chat.

Went in a couple of times over the weekend - my daughter noticed the mild on the beer board outside.... Which was excellent. 3 good handpump. My mum had coffee. Nothing too much trouble. Excellent staff/owners. Friendly customers too. Top view. And just off the seafront. Highly recommend.

Fabulous location, fantastic people, Brilliant real ales and two friendly dogs that greet every customer. Best pub in Scarbados

Such a lovely friendly pub. Stumbled upon it during a visit and we're welcomed into a fab, fun quiz.

Really friendly, staff were excellent. Nice pint.

First time in this bar, which is dog friendly, so we took the dog and found it to be really nice inside. Decent selection of beers, at reasonable prices, one being White Rat, very nice! Staff very friendly and generally a very welcoming pub, so much we left and went back again later. It's just off the seafront so if you haven't been, give it a try. Will be back again the next time we visit the area.

Nice little place off the beaten track

Nice little micro pub and very friendly!

What a gem of a place.. small but perfect visited Christmas day made to feel so welcome we went back again boxing day did not disappoint. Lovely local couple hosting. Best bit no one under 18 and its not a café.. oh and be sure to shut the door when you enter or leave.

Small but cosy bar, lovely view just a shame more people don't visit. Thank you for your response and yes I'll call in next time I'm in Scarborough, looking like February/March.

Great little bar. With a good selection of cask and keg beers which are well kept. Really friendly privately owned bar. Dog friendly too.

Very welcoming host/s, lovely ambience, dog friendly, good selection of drinks. What more could you ask?

Lovely beer, kept well, Friendly staff, intimate cosy atmosphere.

Lovely, friendly chilled out bar. Nice atmosphere, dog friendly. Warm comfortable environment. Great choice of drinks and hand pulled beers . Thoroughly recommend..

Grand little pub, good people, good beer!

Great real ale, friendly staff and good atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

Been a few times, small quaint and very friendly

Absolutely love this little quaint bar. Owner is lovely. Really nice enjoyable atmosphere x we will definitely be back. Definitely worth a visit, and don't forget to get Benson and sky a packet of pork scratchings

Nice pub, very welcoming, had a pleasant couple of afternoon drinks. Nice crisps too!

Great little pub. On a side road. Friendly staff and a good selection of bears and spirits

Had a toastie here yesterday. The owner was friendly.

Nice little bar - plenty of drinks on offer. My lager was a bit float from the way it was poured but the cocktail my wife had was amazing. Local business that’s defo worth visit.

Lovely little bar. Great beer, nice pies and light bites, good prices, amazing owner. We will be back again.

The Frigate is a relatively new bar just back from the harbour off Eastborough. We ended up here a bit by accident as many of the other pubs were closed but liked it so much we went back again. They have a small but good selection of cask ale, a wide range of spirits and a cocktail menu. The landlady was super friendly and helpful and and all in all found it to be a great spot for a drink and a chat. Note that dogs and children are welcome (although on this occasion we were without either!)
