Reviews of the highest order
The restaurant enjoys a 4.5 rating on Tripadvisor, here’s what some very satisfied customers had to say.
“An excellent restaurant in Whitby! The food was absolutely delicious—the chicken dish was full of flavour, and the seafood platter was amazing, packed with fresh seafood and great extras like chips and brown bread. The prices were very fair for the quality of food. Highly recommend giving this place a try.”
“First visit! Always been a fan of Trenchers and liked the idea of a similar quality of food in a more 'restaurant' environment. My sister opted for the calamari starter, I just fancied ciabata bread with dips. Lovely! We both chose the seafood platter and WOW! Chip shop fries, smoked salmon, massive prawns in shells, mussels, oyster in shell, prawns in sauce, lovely salad and bread and butter. Way more than I could eat and an amazingly low £22!! Lovely service too. Can't wait to go again.”
“Called in on the off chance there was a table available. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Ordered haddock, chips and mushy peas plus 2 teas. Tea was hot and a good strong cup, the fish and chips were nicely cooked, fish was fresh and tasty. Will certainly return next time we are in Whitby and fancy fish and chips. Thank you.”
“The food was excellent and we had a 2-for-1 offer on our main meal which was a bonus. The staff were exceptional and very attentive. Nice atmosphere and an enjoyable dining experience. We will be eating here on our next visit to Whitby.”
