We stayed in Room 7 above the bar and it was lovely, value for money. Fabulous location. We ate in the Moon and Sixpence and the sister hotel, The Marine hotel. The moon and sixpence do the best breakfast, cooked fresh and served to your table. Very relaxed, great staff. Parking is difficult but you will find somewhere on the... More

I remember when the Moon and Sixpence first opened it was excellent, a bit pricey but worth every penny. I dont know whats happened in the last couple of years, new management maybe new chef Im not sure but the quality of the food has gone dramatically downhill! The last time I ate here my calimari starter was chewy and... More

Came here last.year and the food was excellent; had 3 meals this year and all were poor - I suspect they have a new cook / chef who is not as good as the last. We had the veggie mushroom burger and it arrived luke warm with the chips over cooked, soggy and unpleasant. The bread roll was boderlline stale,... More

Really enjoyed lunch at this little bistro. Good attentive service and excellent food. The homemade beefburger was very tasty and at £7.90 not expensive. The breaded chicken sandwich also went down a treat. More room at the back if the bar area is full.

There are hundreds of eating places in Whitby and the surrounding area, some good and some to be avoided, this one falls under the heading of good. Been here a few times now when we have been on holiday in the area and I cannot fault it. The food is lovely, the menu varied - I struggle to make a... More

Myself and hubby have enjoyed many a lovely full english breakfast here whilst staying in Whitby. On our last visit we took our friends and their young child and decided to book a meal in the restaurant for that evening. It was the first time we had eaten here in the evening and it did not disappoint - the food... More

Hubby and I ate (yet again) in the Moon & Sixpence, a favorite saturday night haunt. Sitting in the window watching the world go by, glass in hand , meal ordered, what could be nicer. I had the lamb cutlets, with salad in a yoghurt + mint dressing and roast veg, excellent!!! Hubby was impressed with his cod chips (more... More

We visited over the last bank holiday in May and had a lovely evening. Me n hubby both had burgers mine with chorizo and bacon hubby's with bacon and cheese and they were yummy! Very attentive service from the waitress and bar staff and would definitely go again whenever we re-visit Whitby.
