The best restaurants serving British food in Scarborough Yorkshire and The Humber

Great selection of fish and chips with an extensive gluten-free menu. The food was delicious, and they even brought out some scraps, which was a welcome surprise!

Cracking pub with really friendly owners... Best pint of Ruby Hobgoblin I've had in a long while! We will definitely be back on our next holiday!

Update: As of May 2025 the wonderful staff have moved to The Spa Pub on Victoria Road, Scarborough after new owners took over The Cask. Went in for dinner when we were staying at a holiday flat across the road. Very welcoming with good food and service. It's also dog friendly!

Can't comment on the rooms, but we had an amazing Sunday lunch. Beautifully prepared and served, lots of lovely fresh veg. The staff were unobtrusive and efficient. Would go back if we are in the area again. Thank you.

A lovely pub serving a great pint of Staropramen, often our first stop when we visit Whitby. It has a great view of the harbour. Only eaten here once, we had fish and chips they were OK but there are far better places in Whitby to have fish and chips.

NOW CLOSED. Probably due to the idiotic no mobile phones policy. Called at whitby's other sam smiths pub the plough. That looks like it's going the same way. Shame really.

Llegamos temprano / media tarde y pudimos ver que estaban ocupados había unas cuantas mesas vacías y la mayoría de la gente ya estaba siendo servida, así que preguntamos si podíamos tomar el té de la tarde y nos mostraron a una mesa. Donde nos dejaron sin una bebida o menú durante más de 30 minutos. Nos fuimos... Amigos habían dicho que la comida era buena aquí y estábamos buscando una estancia (en una fecha posterior) para nuestro aniversario de bodas, así que tuvimos un aperitivo en otro lugar, pero sonó y reservó en el salón una mesa temprano, ya que teníamos un espectáculo para ir. A la llegada no - uno podía encontrar nuestra reserva, pero después de unos 15 minutos de pie nos mostraron a una mesa. Una vez más no había actitud bienvenida - éramos una molestia una dificultad. Pedimos comida (pero el servidor no sabía qué era la sopa del día y tenía que ir a averiguarlo) esperamos - - durante mucho tiempo - - y esperamos - no se ofrecen bebidas - esperamos. Entonces la pobre camarera tuvo que decirnos que no podíamos comer. (Esto para unos cuantos sandwiches y una sopa). Pedimos ver al gerente, esperamos mucho tiempo. Finalmente dejamos la mesa y exigimos ver al gerente. Ella había estado cerca, pero aparentemente había sido demasiado importante para venir a nuestra mesa a hablar con nosotros. Ella (no realmente) lo sentía, pero si esperábamos un poco ella vería SI podíamos encajar en el restaurante. En este momento no había tiempo antes del espectáculo. El gerente era inútil y francamente no le importaba. ¡Sus palabras eran tópicos y ella se esforzó en hacernos saber que realmente no eran mezquinos! Con la tarde casi arruinada y posiblemente sin tiempo suficiente para comer nos fuimos. Afortunadamente nos detuvimos en el siguiente lugar por la calle 'iL Piatto' que aunque muy ocupado dijo que estaban muy ocupados, pero trataría de alimentarnos rápidamente para que pudiéramos comer antes del espectáculo, . Lo hicieron y el servicio y la comida era excelente. Este era un día frío en invierno y Scarborough no estaba ocupado en verano. EL CIELO SABE LO MALO QUE SERÁ EL SERVICIO EN EL SALÓN EN VERANO - - NO VAYAS No volveremos a ir

Lovely tea in the Lovely palm court. Excellent service and quiet music. Highly recommended. Also in the men’s room they had books to read! Super.

Walked into the Swan Humanby for Sunday lunch could have either one two or three corses reasonably priced. We Ordered the beef it took an hour to arrive and was cold the parsnips burnt to a cinder, veg cold and gravy well the smallest jug ever, ordered the sticky toffee pudding, never again. Sorry but not good at all it’s a local friendly pub but doesn’t really cater well for food, need more organised staff.

Simply superb. The best fish and chips we have eaten in years. The batter was perfect and the homemade sauces were amazing. This place is a must if visiting Robin Hood’s Bay

We have been coming here for years. Usually very impressed but bread was not fresh today and it spoilt it. What a shame because it was otherwise very nice.

We visited twice during 1 week because it was so nice. 1st visit was lunch - mushroom cheese melt and a bacon sandwich and tea & coffee. The food was gorgeous and not a long wait. 2nd visit was full breakfast (veggie for one) and tea and coffee. Both times the food & drinks were very nice and piping hot. Lots of content in the breakfast and quality ingredients. Set above cooplands, this place is definitely worth a visit.

Well worth having a 12 mth pass .

Nice traditional pub central to the village

I had seen recommendations for gluten free, and glad to see a notice in the shop window. The gentleman serving had great knowledge of gluten free and confirmed the separate fryer and gluten free batter. I had a small gluten free fish and chips, and hubby had a normal fishcake, battered sausage and chips. Both meals tasted great, portion size was generous and we both enjoyed our takeaway meal, eating in the sunshine on the pier. The gentleman serving was great, he was all alone and yet had complete control of all the orders he was taking, in an efficient and friendly way. He was a credit to the Quayside. When next in Whitby we would have no hesitation in returning for a great meal and would totally recommend.
