The Wheatsheaf Inn in Scarborough - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely atmosphere, went at 7pm and was full of diners, including children, was nearly empty by 8.30, it was the best meal out I’ve had in years, I had chicken and Quattro pate for starters and nut roast for main and it was gorgeous. Was too full for desert, all my family enjoyed their meals too, would highly recommend this place, best meal in Whitby

Called in as just arrived after a six hour drive. They found us a table and the food was excellent, we have reserved a table for another day as we want to try some other food, staff were friendly and professional and the local people made us welcome with tips on where to visit,

Love coming to this restaurant every year we visit Sandsend. The food is wonderful and the young waiter Daniel was so helpful and especially nice to,our young diners. Highly recommend.

We called in for some lunch and enjoyed every minute of it . Highly recommended. In beautiful surroundings

Luckily managed to secure a late booking due to a cancellation, The food can only be described as outstanding, A great menu and specials board, Friendly professional staff, The only disappointment being we only got to eat there once during our stay in the area!

My Wife and I visited this Pub Restuant on recommendation from the Landlady at our B&B.The establishment was just a short drive from where we were staying at Grosmont, and our meals were superb in a nice atmosphere.There is exellent car parking. It is advisable to book,I would say there was not much chance of turning up and getting a table during the summer months.

The sheaf as it’s fondly known by locals is one of the many outstanding places to eat and drink the North Yorkshire moors national park has to offer. As with most popular and excellent places to eat no mater WHERE it is in the country booking is essential to avoid disappointment. The landlord doesn’t mess around and at Times can seem quite blunt, however this is all in aid of providing excellent food and service to his customers that have booked ahead and are ACTUALLY sat in his restaurant. It is a small pub with a small dining room so it can be difficult to accept walk in diners and it famously flatly refuses to serve “Gallon walkers” who can cause a unpleasant experience for family’s and take over the small but perfectly formed bar area. I have visited many times over the years and NEVER had a bad experience. Ignore winging reviewers, pick up the phone, book a table, turn up on time and enjoy a wonderful meal with good beer at a very reasonable price. If that’s too much to ask then please take your custom to one of the many other pubs and restaurants the national park has to offer, this place will still be full of locals and tourists alike enjoying a great meal. Note. I am absolutely not affiliated with the wheat sheaf or it’s owners in anyway. I am simply just tired of reading reviews from easily offended tourists slating the place which in turn may influence people and then them miss out on a genuinely excellent meal in a fantastic genuine countryside pub.

Called them in the early afternoon to book a table and left a message on the voicemail, including my number, for them to confirm. Didn't get a call back, so I called again at around 6:30pm to confirm. Whoever picked up the phone was a bit rude, he told me he didn't have a table for us and hung up.

Accompanied by friends who had eaten here before we enjoyed a lovely meal, well cooked and beautifully presented. Served by a very attentive waiter who had worked there for over 11 years so that says something. The trio of puddings - as I couldn’t make my mind up really was an excellent choice, and rounded the meal off superbly.

Food and drink in the Goathland area quite exceptional. Wheatsheaf Inn in particular offered a plentiful selection of wines and sherries..........

This is a lovely pub in the countryside. My husband and I both had the Spanish pizza which was amazing. What let it down was when I checked the bill before paying there was a £1 "voluntary donation". When I queried this with the bar staff I was told they partnered with a local charity and this was a donation to it. They didn't know the name of the charity but thought it was to do with homelessness.

I went on a Tuesday evening thinking the pub would not be busy but we only just managed to get a table. The food and service was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, I had the salmon with a delicious sauce, followed with a trio of puddings which were all beautifully presented. This is one of the few local pubs with a good website that has a menu so you can see clearly if the variety of food and the prices are suitable. I will definitely go again.

Excellent sirloin steak and fillet steak burger: well presented, good food. Delicious ice cream, some very interesting flavours. Most of the staff we engaged with were friendly. We got the sense, when we tipped when paying the bill, that the tips are not all going to the staff. This was a little disappointing, if it is the case.

Thank you Wheatsheaf for a fabulous lunch! As excellent as expected, just wish we lived nearer ! Kidneys to start and then belly pork were both beautiful. We went twice in the week we were staying in Yorkshire and couldn't fault either lunch and excellent value for the quality of food. A must to visit if you are in the area. It was very cosy even in the snow !

Had a fantastic meal Friday evening 8th September my partner and myself plus a good friend and her young son.its been 5 years since we were in egton,but we made sure that the wheatsheaf inn was the place to eat.and it was fantastic.we decided to eat there for Sunday lunch as we knew the food was to good to pass up.so we did and we took three friends and a young child as well .the food didn't disappoint just as the friendly atmosphere and excellent service didn't either I would highly recommend this fantastic place.it ticks every box you could wish for.

What a find! Highly recommended by the hotel we were staying at in Goathland. The owner was fantastic, great sense of humour and very relaxed with the customers. One of those people who just have 'something' about them. Food was an absolute joy. The range was brilliant and the the deserts was to die for...literally my wife almost did herself an injury getting the last spoonful before me! We will be back. Brilliant.

The Wheatsheaf serves consistently good food, always freshly prepared and the prices are very reasonable. If you're visiting Whitby it is definitely worth a visit! The only drawback is the large dining room at the back of the pub which is lacking in atmosphere. We stopped for lunch the other week as we happened to be passing but we were the only two in the back room and it felt cold and unwelcoming. It's not as bad at night (I was there for a celebration with friends a month ago) when the room is full and there is a cosy fire going. The decor in that room needs a total rethink as it has always felt sparse. I think this is a shame as the Wheatsheaf serves some of the best food in the area.

Landlord very welcoming and chatty. Books up quickly, we could only manage to get a table on a Tues evening. Dining looks like room looks like an extension to original pub, it's not the most atmospheric setting and a bit too brightly lit for me. All the food that we had was good, For me the desserts were the highlight. They offer individual or a trio of smaller portions - every one that we had was excellent.

Un amigo nos recomendó este lugar en gran parte en la fuerza de sus postres (y puedes tener 3 postres mini) pero como yo no puedo comer trigo, como siempre, yo estaba un poco escéptico. A menudo es difícil encontrar un postre sin trigo, olvídate de 3. Como resultó, este es posiblemente el mejor restaurante que he estado por gluten opciones gratis. Había varias opciones y para mi entrante, plato realmente delicioso, venera que adaptó añadiendo gluten miga gratis y me hicieron mi plato especialmente sin trigo en la salsa. Y como para el trío de postres, sí había más de 3 sin trigo, no que tenía que capacidad mucho!

Visitamos hoy con la familia y los niños pequeños para comer el domingo basado en una recomendación. Así que no podía más recomendado. Fantástica comida! Normalmente no disfrutar de almuerzos de domingo, como siempre creo que son mejor pero me casa viajar aquí cada domingo. Los postres eran incluso mejor que la red. Los propietarios y el personal era genial, con mis hijos lo que realmente significa mucho. Muchas gracias por una experiencia fantástica xxx

Walked in per chance , to a nice welcome and was offered Sunday Lunch with a choice of meats. Veg served in individual tureens lots of choice. Well presented and plenty of it. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Visited with family, great vfm. Menu doesn't change that regularly but specials board good. Crab linguine was excellent and exceptional value at £12.50. Well worth a visit!

Si te alojas en Whitby, entonces este lugar es imprescindible. Probar y reservar para comer el domingo si puedes, sus asados son increíbles.

Visitamos 4 veces, ya que mover a Whitby. Menú de almuerzo muy buena relación calidad-precio. La calidad de los productos y cocina es excelente. Pasteles de pescado son las personas que he probado nunca. Panceta de cerdo y pastel de carne se deshace en la boca. Assiette de pudines deliciosos. Bromas bueno con los propietarios. Un hallazgo dirigido por personas con pasión por la buena comida.

An unexpectedly diverse menu, with some old favourites as well. All the food our party of four received was very tasty, well presented with good, friendly service. There was plenty of room between tables and the acoustics were fine i.e. no need for a shouting contest so that your fellow diners can hear you. Very enjoyable evening.

Lovely family friendly pub and excellent restaurant. Landlord very accommodating and helpful with local knowledge. The meal was excellent, staff very accommodating, lots of menu choices. Scallops the best I've had and the trio of puddings a good option went spoilt for choice.

Very friendly pub, with lovely staff. I was part of a very large group doing a charity walk. The Wheatsheaf very very helpful and attentive. Many thanks

Had a lovely meal here after a day's walking in the rain and snow (April!). Excellent home cooked meals, good value for money. Good wine list, excellent beer, and very friendly staff. Can't fault it.

Easter Sunday lunch whilst staying in the area. Buzzing atmosphere, attentive and friendly staff, very good value and well executed roast lunches and very tasty desserts. Thank you for a wonderful Easter lunch.

Where do I start, a group of us were celebrating a milestone birthday and decided to complete the gallon walk !! A route was planned and it was decided we would start and end our walk at the Wheatsheaf Inn - well that was a mistake. The welcome when we arrived as a few of us attempted to park at the front of the pub was not great,,,,, basically told 'don't park there car park at back', so we did as told and thought maybe just early morning blues, however the welcome we all recieved at the end of the walk was very similar, not what you would expect a country hostelry to portray!! The guy behind the bar presume the owner/licencee was rather rude and and didnt crack a smile all the time we were there other than to his locals who were quite put out when our large group descended leaving the door ajar for everyone to get in. Compared to the welcome we recieved from the owner/licencee at The Postgate Egton Bridge, he was fantastic, was the total opposite, appreciated our custom and went the extra mile by joining in on our celebrations. Basically Im saying unless you are a local avoid The Wheatsheaf Inn like the plague, definitely needs a course in public relations

I had booked lunch at the Wheatsheaf following a family recommendation and having phoned over a week before to be told we had the last table we travelled with high expectations. We need not have worried, the welcome was friendly and after a short wait we were taken through to the dining room. Just roasts on a Sunday lunch but you can mix and match and the meats were really tasty and tender. Nine different vegetables (all cooked beautifully) including a large bowl of gorgeous roast potatoes and two Yorkshire puddings made for a fabulous lunch. The four of us shared two portions of the trio of desserts and left saying that we would definitely return. Cost between £20 - £25 each including wine and beers.

Stopped in here after a countryside walk on the moors. Beautiful roaring fire was a big relief on a wintry day and lovely warming wholesome food to match. All lunchtime mains are 9.50 and have huge portions! Best belly pork I've had in a long time! Great find, will be back soon!

Came here for a family Sunday lunch.Good service and we had a nice big table.They only serve roasts on a Sunday but it was a good roast. The beef was good and a crazy amount of 9 different vegetables as well as very good roast potatoes.Dessert was also very good.Individual desserts or for the same price you could select 3 mini desserts, however they were much bigger than we expected and very nice.Definitely a place to recommend for a Sunday lunch if you're in Whitby.

This was our first time eating here and it won't be our last!!!Great food with an amazing choice of vegetables we loved it, and the service was excellent we give it 10 out of 10 well done guys.

Found this pub completely by accident, while on holiday with my mum , the female bar staff and waiters were friendly . We ordered soup which was mushroom and truffle it was delicious .The only fly in the ointment was the landlord he seemed very pompous and arrogant , he seemed to be more concerned about the local regulars than other customers .All your customers are your bread and butter not just the locals

What a lovely pub and a great place to eat.....visited on a Saturday lunchtime and had a bite with all the family...a warm welcome, good beer and wine and great hosts.....highly recommend

Once again the Wheatsheaf serves up a fantastic meal for all eleven of us we have a family reunion here every year and it never lets you down. I had the cheese soufflé which was so light it could have floated away. The desert's 3 miniature pavlova, lemon possitt crème brulee all fantastic couldn't eat anything for the rest of the day. They also did a special vegan meal which they do evey year for my brother.

Second time I've been, and despite fearing no one around this area will 'get' vegans- this amazing restaurant had me covered every time and makes the most beautiful food for me. Of course I give as much notice as possible. The chef responsible, a lovely lady, doesn't just bash together something bland like other restaurants, but she's obviously a skilled enough chef to understand what makes a fantastic tasty, filling vegan meal. My grandma had the fish stew and she just loves it.The chips are the best I've ever had! And a great price too for such high quality fresh food.

The Wheatsheaf is an attractive country pub with some tables outside too.When we booked they were very particular about the time we could come so as to spread the orders through the kitchen and on arrival the place was busy. We were shown straight to our table in the dinning room and drinks brought out to us.We shared a starter of garlic bread which was OK but a tad underwhelming being a generous serving of grilled French stick with garlic butter rather than the ciabatta on the menu. For a main course I chose the sirloin steak which came with a salad, grilled tomatoes, fried onions and a bowl of thick cut chips. Every bit of it was excellent. The steak itself was perfectly cooked to order and very tender. I'm only an occasional steak eater but this was certainly one of the best. The chips were crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. Coming in a warmed Pyrex bowl they stayed hot till the end of the meal.My wife went for Hake in a Dill sauce and I'm reliably informed that it was very good.The pudding menu had a good twist allowing you to choose a full size pudding or three small ones. We chose to share three small ones which were good; a brioche bread and butter pudding, lemon posset and a Bailey's chocolate mousse. We finished of with expresso and a Bailey's hot chocolate which wasn't on the menu but the waiter agreed to make when asked.Service was good.

Set in the lovely village of Egton. Fantastic food, wine and beer. Great setting to chill and enjoy.

Every time I visit here, I am never disappointed! It's truly wonderful, amazing food and service. Staff are very helpful and kind. Looking forward to my next visit!!

Booked in for the first night of our holiday. Lovely food, great wine and beer, friendly, efficient staff and good value. Tried to go back later in the week but they were fully booked and deserve to be.

Visited during our holiday and it was so good we went back again a few nights later. Food was tasty, well presented and hot. The Sirloin steaks from a local butcher were the nicest tasting ones we have had for a long time. Impressive Gin list and nice wine list. You will need to book. Landlord and staff all very nice. Will be back next year for second helpings,

you could not ask for better food. the liver is excellent the belly pork is to die for. try to book early as the table is for all night.

Had to book a few days in advance for lunch with our dog in the bar but it was worth it. I enjoyed an incredibly light four cheese soufflé followed by a (happily) not so light bread and butter pudding. My wife enjoyed her fish cakes and trio of deserts. We had been a little worried that the Wheatsheaf might not be a hugely welcoming place for a couple of tourists with springer in tow, having such a good reputation for good food and more of a restaurant focus. We needn't have worried. The landlord is a lovely chap. The bar frequented by a few friendly regulars enjoying lunch and (I imagine) a family visit taking place with kids enjoying themselves around the pub. No idea whether it has the same kind of atmosphere in the evening, but certainly a nice place to enjoy a leisurely lunch.

Absolutely the best meal we have had for a long time Top service, very friendly We will backThe Danes

I do not normally leave reviews, but this place is amazing!! Very reasonably priced. The trio of desserts were delicious.

Food of very high quality and served very promptly and the desserts are to die for especially the trio of puddings

We have been to the Wheatsheaf on a number of occasions, in fact on every visit to the NYM.The food menu offers all types of food and is beautifully prepared.You will not be disappointed.

Absolutely fantastic roast beef with amazing array of vegetables. Welcoming warm and friendly staff. Just wish we had gone back again whilst we were here on holiday.

Very friendly staff and we met with friends - choosing lamb and slow braised belly pork for the mains. All served with nicely cooked veg. Puddings also excellent. Nice atmosphere with a log fire blazing away on the day we visited

Absolutely delicious Sunday lunch at the Wheatsheaf. The beef was cooked to your own preference, the vegetables were delicious with a wide variety brought to the table and the trio of desserts was AMAZING! Staff were friendly and polite and we'd highly recommend!

I had a call from the owners regarding a grill install which I installed after upgrading the extraction systems. Kitchen was very clean. Went on the evening with the Mrs and had a pleasant evening. Food was fantastic . Had 2 main meals steak and ale pie which was excellent and the chips was the best I had any where. We had the gammon also which was a good thickness and cooked well. Wife had a trio of deserts which she said was excellent. Would highly recommend this place and the owners are great people. Loved it.

We visited mid week for a family meal .Whilst the food was absolutely delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed, the wait imbetween courses was extremely lengthy - about 45mins each course which wasn't good . Children fed up by the end. We even had to get up and find spoons for the deserts as waiter disappeared for ages.

We came here on a whim after booking at a b&b last minute in a nearby village. Lucky for us, they had one table left (almost fully booked on a Tuesday in winter)! After having several meals with lots of fried and greasy elements, this was what I'd been waiting for on this trip. The food was all locally sourced, made from scratch, and wholesome. Our family had seafood stew, pork belly, mushroom soup, garlic bread, Whitby scampi, and two trios of their fabulous desserts. Every dish was wonderful, the service was excellent and thoughtful, and the atmosphere (candles and wood burners blazing) made for a wonderful evening. Highly recommended--be sure to book, as you might not be as lucky as we were!

I booked this pub for dinner as a recommendation from our B&B. What a treat it was. On arrival we were greeted with enthusiasm and offered a drink at the bar before seating. It had a "family-run" vibe about it which I always enjoy. The menu is interesting and the food is delicious. The wine and beer was good too. I'm surprised this doesn't score very highly on trip advisor yet but i'm sure it will soon.

A very pleasant atmosphere in a cosy bar with a log fire. Dogs welcome too! Food from the day time menu was reasonably priced and delicious!

We have been there a couple of times and the food and beer is very good. First time had the duck livers and the second time the cheese souffle - my wife had kedgeree on both occasions. Well cooked and generous portions.The landlord is very friendly and so are the staff. Now on our list of pubs to visit if we are in the area.

There are many good places to eat in this area, this is one place we consistently return to as it is so good. This time we had an evening meal, outstanding! Good service. Could not be bettered. Great flavours on all of our parties dishes equalling some of the fayre served by the country's best restaurants.Please book as you will not get in otherwise.

Just called in on a Saturday evening during a weekend break to have a nice evening meal. We were out of the area and not visited before. We enquired with the landlord if he had a,table for two. His attitude was both dismissive and arrogant. He just looked at us and said no sorry, then just turned away to pander to his locals in his own little world. He may think he's a big fish in a small pond but he needs to understand that he will soon become a,small fish in a big pond when people read reviews like this. Get down off the high horse!!

We were disapointed ro find that the Wheatsheef was closed indefinitately yesterday. We have been many times before and always had a nice meal and friendly service. I can't come t on service etc. Now, but in the past all ere good.

I have eaten in restaurants all over the world and I rate The Wheatsheaf at Egton amongst my best 'good food' experiences. An imaginative compact menu, freshly cooked and served with panache, the excellent food in this restaurant beats many of the Michelin Star type restaurants charging double the price for half the quality..This is not a 'posers' restaurant. The landlord is a no none sense owner, with a very successful restaurant, nearly always fully booked. The locally sourced food is presented with flair, lots of fresh vegetables, and very generous portions.On our recent visit my wife and I enjoyed monk-fish starters, slow cooked lamb in a piquant sauce accompanied by a variety of fresh vegetables - all served piping hot, and a trio of deserts to finish. Added to our bill was a sherry, a glass of wine, and two halves of Black Sheep bitter. Total = £55.75.What good food! What good value! How wonderful to enjoy a really well cooked meal in a restaurant which can live up to its reputation. Make sure you book well in advance.

Did not expect much from this place as it was seemed to be in main road leading to Whitby proper but i got convinced my by lovely friend Fiona to try as she know the owners and has been there often.And thanks god we listened as it was a great English food with international flair, the way it is served and presented indeed.We ate outside enjoying the beautiful view of rolling hills of yorkshire.We met both lovely owners. The husband tending the bar and elaine was tending the front garden. Looks soooo Englishy B&B - Pub.Elaine was also so kind to give us a grand tour of her B&B. Such a beautiful b&b indeed. Would surely stay there when we will be Whitby next time. Til very soon Elaine.Thanks for the lovely food and for showing us your lovely B&B. Wimmo&Godwin from Amsterdam B&B Barangay

Recommended as a local pub with good food. It exceeded expectations. The food was wonderful and the staff all very helpful.

We were lucky to squeeze 5 of us in on a Friday evening with only half an hour's pre-booking - but we were lucky and got in, and it was well worth it. 2 starters between us, and 5 delicious main courses, one of which was vegan - a modified version of the nut roast to avoid dairy products. Non-vegans had grilled salmon, the usual version of the nut roast, or fish stew. All meals were excellent, with plenty of vegetables and potatoes available. My fish stew was exquisite: smoked, unsmoked fish and shellfish in a delicious creamy dill sauce. Wine was also very nice - we were all very pleased with the experience. Go there if you have the chance!

Great venue!Great ale!Beautiful area.However the man, no gentleman, was very rude and obnoxious.What makes it worse is he runs the place.What a shame he focuses clearly on the regulars alone.He looks very miserable and as it happens he is..!!

Have had mid-week lunches at the Wheatsheaf and they have always been first class, today we went for Sunday lunch, these meals often let a place down, but not here, there was a choice of three roasts and a wonderful nut loaf for veggies (of which I am one!) all served with two Yorkshire puddings and a selection of NINE vegetables! All cooked to perfection. I have no regrets recommending the Wheatsheaf to anyone.

On a short break to Whitby, we were looking for somewhere to have dinner. Passing the Wheatsheaf Inn at Egton, we called in to look at the menu . Impressed by the friendly and helpful staff we decided to return that evening. We weren't disappointed! After a pint of Black Sheep bitter we had the fillet steak home made gourmet burgers which frankly were to die for; probably the best burger I have ever tasted and served in a locally baked Ciabatta bun. Washed down with a bottle of Cote Du Rhone from the extensive wine list our meal was complete. We enjoyed our evening and plan to return when we next visit the Whitby area.
