We stayed at the hotel this weekend to celebrate our 15th anniversary, and it was such a fantastic experience. The restaurant launched a new menu on the night we arrived and honestly, it was out of this world. We ended up eating there both nights, trying the Vault Burger and the flat iron steak on the first night, and the chicken burger on the second (pictured… apologies to the chef, I couldn’t pronounce it, let alone spell it!). Every meal was a really generous portion and absolutely delicious, there’s genuinely nothing I would change. We also had breakfast both mornings, with the full English and eggs Benedict, which were beautiful. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming, and it never felt forced. We can’t wait to go back. Price range was great and that includes the drinks for too.
We are a couple, we visited October on a Friday evening. We both had a fish starter & main. Both meals were delicious, cooked to perfection & quality. We were served by a lovely waiter. This is a lovely restaurant, & would definitely return if in Whitby again. 🙂
We had a great night with a lovely atmosphere and really nice, friendly staff. My partner had the ham hock terrine and the pork snitzel and said that they were both really good. I'm not a massive cabbage fan but risked the scallops on a bed of creamed cabbage and crispy bacon and it was absolutely wonderful. I then had what was very possibly the best seafood linguine that I have ever had and that's saying something! We will definitely be back next time we're in Whitby
Booked here last minute for a Sunday roast whilst on holiday and what a great decision that was! The best Sunday lunch I've ever had at a restaurant - the staff were also very attentive, the music was great and the decor was lovely! Will 1000% be coming back if end up in this neck of the woods again 😊
After walking around looking for somewhere to eat on a cool April evening we stopped off for a drink and decided to stay for food. Even though it was quite early the earliest we could get a table was 8pm (suggest booking ahead). However, due to a no-show, we were able to eat earlier. Mrs D had pigeon and I had the scallops to start - the scallop dish is definitely one of the best things I’ve eaten this year. For the mains, I had the haddock, which was cooked perfectly, and Mrs D had the cod accompanied by pasta and an amazing tomato based sauce. Overall, an excellent meal, great service and very good value for money.
