The best restaurants in Bridlington Central and Old Town East Riding of Yorkshire Yorkshire and The Humber

Read the reviews got to say excellent started with scallops and prawns with bacon exceptional two steaks to follow washed down with wine lovely atmosphere lovely staff thanks for having us

Our first visit and what a wonderful place,a cosy tea room . We had an awesome afternoon tea. All home made and really fab food. Really good value for money and lots of different items . Especially loved the home made quiche and lemon mousse with shortbread. 🤩

Have been meaning to try the N&N for ages. I had a couple of days to kill in Brid on my own, so had planned one visit there and a couple of Fish restaurants in the area. I’d been to the Queens pub many times in the past so was a tad unprepared for what had become of it. It used to be a pretty downtrodden Brid boozer but then picked up when the current owners spruced it up and introduced live bands and a vibrant, young client base. The N&N has now melded with the pub. I happened to visit on what seemed to be the only sunny day in Summer which showed off the large patio area in its full glory. I instantly fell in love with it, and that’s before I even got hold of the menus. Now, full disclosure, I’m a slightly repentant carnivore trying hard to switch up plant and dial down roadkill. I have several vegan friends. None of whom look at all well, so I’m struggling for motivation here. I’ve ‘done’ several vegetarian places, but never been to a vegan restaurant. I’d previously seen Beth, the incredible head chef, on Andi Oliver’s Fabulous Feasts. Her Bridlington Tarts (grow up!), blew Andi away and I’ve not thought about anything else since I saw them. I’ve got two in my caravan fridge now. They won’t make it past the completion of the next paragraph. Anyway, my point. Despite my vegan virginity, I knew there’s more to it than nut roasts and veg curry. I chose the wild waffles, chips and a flat white. Let me explain the wild waffles as best as I can. It’s waffle shaped. There’s a hint of oregano, basil and has a smoky aftertaste. There’s avocado in it and some caramelised sweet walnuts. Then there’s a creamy maple cashew sauce over the top. That didn’t help you all did it? Well, whatever this mind-blowing masterpiece did to my senses, I’m not entirely sure. A tear may have been shed, I did hear Mozart’s requiem in my head, even though Joni Mitchell was playing through the speakers. And the chips, well, these weren’t anything like I’d previously experienced. Triple cooked because once isn’t enough as we all know. Fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside. I think they were dusted with a paprika based seasoning which was just perfect. It was precisely at this point in my afternoon of gluttony where I started reconsidering my planned visits to fish restaurants. The chips would be a disappointment. I would forever regret not revisiting N&N the next day. I’m a tart down now… thanks for asking. Now I do know a thing or two about coffee. I also know a lot about real ale as my waistline will testify. The coffee they use is nicely balanced with nutty tones (No idea what that means but everybody says it). I asked for a flat white which should show off the coffee flavour without too much milk masking as can be the case with cappuccino. There are a range of draught keg beers on offer at the bar and some bottled beers. There are some excellent cask real ale offerings in Brid, including the magnificent Three Bs micro pub and the nearby Ship Inn, so having at least one cask real ale on offer would certainly have attracted my attention. Maybe even a home-brew to dovetail with the theme of foraging and natural ingredients? I’m now craving a lovely plum porter. Lunch tomorrow will be more of the same. My voyage to veganism is far from complete but it’s clear my friends are doing it all wrong. One tart survives, as does the fish I planned to dine on tomorrow.

Enjoyed great coffee & cake in this quirky, friendly cafe … love the vibe & relaxed feel that that Chris brings to his cafe with is situated in the charming Old Town quarter of Bridlington. Our dog was made to feel so welcome & we’ll definitely return to sample more delicious cakes & enjoy Chris’s friendly banter & conversation.

Lovely place for lunch staff are very welcoming and the food was very good. We will definitely be coming back and dog friendly

Todays lunch was served with a smile, all cooked by first year students. Well worth a visit to support your local college. The meal was hot, freshly prepared and very tasty. The seating was comfortable in a nicely decorated and presented room in the college. I will be visiting again... Only open on Thursday and Friday lunchtime.

Excellent service and excellent food

Excellent service. Food was really nice and the staff were friendly and attentive but not overly. Will definitely be back.

Booked this restaurant for a family meal. It has a nice relaxed atmosphere excellent service and the food was wonderful. This is somewhere we will definitely visit again.

Small Cod and chips plus curry sauce and jumbo sausage and chips. And everything was cooked to order. Perfect in every way. 👍🏻

Still has that that feel of a traditional pub I recognise from when I lived in the town forty years ago. It isn't genteel, but it is welcoming, to dogs too. If the Chilli is on the specials board have it, rich, freshly made with chopped not minced beef, definitely one of the best I have had eating out. Amazing value too.

Had a great family lunch here this Sunday. The food was fresh and very good with a varied menu. The service was excellent, very warm and personable! Would definitely recommend!

We were looking for an old traditional pub and we were not disappointed. Excellent customer service and patience esp I am indecisive what lager, stout or beer to have. Love the reinvention of the old English roast with the roast beef in a Yorkshire batter wrap.

Had a day at the coast ,fancied some fish and chips,have had them here before so went again, wasn't disappointed, the best fish and chips on the east coast, lovely fresh haddock and gorgeous chunky chips not running in fat,crisp and tasty very friendly staff,and clean shop,great portion size and great seafront views

Surprised to see negative reviews. We had a lovely stay. Welcomed on arrival, the attack room is a high standard in all aspects and surprisingly quite despite being over the front bar. All amenities you would expect . I’d recommend the pizzas out back. Hot and tasty while priced well. Parking out front available but not dedicated to guests. Not a problem as there are ample. The pub Makes its own beers and again really good and offered at a good price. I’ve seen negative comments about the owner and staff, we found them polite and helpful. The location is great, not near the front but old town which is excellent for pubs and restaurants Now. The breakfast was a real high point. Well cooked and plentiful served with a smile. We will be booking again for the same weekend. My advice is ignore the negative and give it a try. I don’t think you will be disappointed.
