Great food, fabulous service, so good we booked as a stop off for our return journey from the Lakes. Loved the special salmon and prawn linguini, perfect hint of chilli. Have marked it on the road atlas for next trip up north!

Fantastic meal and service as usual , cannot fault the place , even under Covid restrictions , thank you

We visited recently and wasn’t fully satisfied with the meal like we usually are, I ordered the sirloin and it was undercooked to my liking and tasted raw, my partner had the burger and thought it was try and lacking any moisture, we both ended up both being very ill and being sick numerous times through out the night. This is very unlike this place as we visit often however the staff and service was 10/10 as they were able to cater to our allergy needs.

Another good night, great service, good food, superb cocktails. Small disappointment that duck slightly over cooked for my taste. But would still recommend to on and all

A really good meal. We have been coming since they first opened. Excellent menu with great variety Food was cooked to perfection and staff service was very good Tables well spaced out and temperature checks on arrival Well worth a visit

Excellent service yesterday evening and really great food They readily accommodated my gluten free diet and I’ve never been disappointed here Great value

Excellent food and service,Will definitely go again.

Love this restaurant. Been twice with my partner and will definitely come again. Lovely food

Amazing food and service, we really enjoyed the ramen. We ordered 3 sides and had them as starters, bonus points!!!

Came here Friday night with best mate table booked for 7.30 pm . Service was very slow but the food was perfect value for money .Friendly staff was busy so took a long time for food to come after ordering ,but will not stop me from going again as food ,staff were great .Atmosphere and decor was like being back on holiday in greece.

Another wonderful meal at our favourite Whitby restaurant

Went to Sambuca for the first time and sat outside on the terrace, which was lovely. The food and atmosphere was really nice. Only thing I would comment on was how fast the food was served to us. I like a break between courses and to relax and take in the atmosphere, but each course followed the other which seemed rushed. But all in all, very nice and will return again.

It is two years since our last visit, yet nothing changes with the Magpie experience ! superb food, excellent service and very good value,

Always top quality and excellent service

Booked a table , two weeks in advance at this cafè . Waited for food nearly an hour ! Wasn’t anything to rave about , much nicer food in other nearby cafes and restaurants . Wateriest and man on the door , extremely rude . Was not just to us , I even saw the staff made a women with a stick walk back up the stairs to go out a different way ! Don’t bother much nicer places , like Terry’s fish place , Quay Wharf I do recommend , definitely The Magpie , don’t waste your money or your time .

Food and service excellent

Enjoyed 3 fantastic dinners at the Magpie. A really impressive range of delicious dishes at very reasonable prices. Service was efficient and friendly, booking system works well. On one occasion we were seated near a very noisy group and couldn't hear ourselves speak but staff helpfully moved us to a quiter spot. Great restaurant

Visited for a birthday on a Monday evening. We had pre-booked - which was essential otherwise there was a 90minute wait for a table ! As expected, service was good (although they did almost forget to deliver a second drink). Food was lovely. Fresh, tasty and the batter on the fish was really light. Chips were light and not at all greasy. For where and what it was it was a very good overall experience. Would definitely recommend a visit.
