Reviews in Whitby

Very disappointed! Went for the oysters and mussels, they didn't have either. The seafood pot was nice though. Was overcharged on the bill, but the staff were nice and corrected the bill immediately. Such a shame, I had been looking forward to going to Magpies ☹

Great fish and chips

Magpie Cafe is a must when visiting Whitby. Haddock & Chips was delicious and jam roly-poly was the best I have ever eaten

We visited on James Martins recommendation and we weren’t disappointed, we order fish and chips and a seafood hotpot and both were delicious, staff were all very friendly too - well worth a visit !

We had a table for 6 in the window on the ground floor. Booked online several weeks in advance and all went well with the booking. Service was friendly and excellent, engaged nicely with us with plenty of laughter. Food also excellent, both fish and vegetarian. Eton mess for dessert particularly good, and one of our number unusually for him defeated by the size of his ice cream dessert. A lovely family evening.

Really good food and friendly service! A huge menu to choose from; we shared battered monk fish tail and chips, a scallop starter that was on the specials board, some sauteed squid and a piece of poached salmon with garlic butter, and found it all to be of a high quality.

Visited the Magpie twice last week and on both occasions was so impressed with the service and the food. Enjoyed a variety of the fish dishes on offer and all were superb, the side salad was a meal on its own. Staff are friendly and fun which creates a great atmosphere and due to the popularity of the restaurant they work very hard. Would be the first booking I made when we return to Whitby, highly recommended.

Brought my friends to Whitby for the day and introduced them to Magpies. It was my friend 50 th birthday and what can I say ! Absolutely fantastic service from walking through the door , to attentive staff. Food was fabulous, my friend had the salmon pie and remarked it was the best she had ! Booked for august before I left …. Best fish and chips in Whitby!

Long anticipated visit to Magpie Cafe. Well worth the wait. Food & service both great. Just remember you will need to book well in advance

Lovely staff lovely service lovely food reasonably priced , go , you won’t be disappointed

We waited nearly an hour to be served. Our battered fish was greasy and frankly not a good standard.

We were VERY disapointed both with the food and the grumpy service, please and thank you would de nice. The fried Hadock was very oily, we have had mutch better, and certaily bettee at our home town chippy!! It was sooooo disapointing as we were looking forward to it, our advice is don't waste your money or time, go somewhere else. And before this review gets slagged off, we spoke to some locals who said don't bother before we went, but we had already booked, we wish we had taken the advice.

Absolutely brilliant. Loved my fish pie. My partner he had fish and chips and he said they were the best fish and chips he’s ever had. Great service and felt very safe and good Covid protection

Excellent meal and service, thank you.

Quality Quality what can I say perfect fish and chips amazing staff and covid rules strictly followed cannot wait till the next visit

Great food and service plus great views across Whitby. Highly recommended if you are visiting Whitby it’s a must! We also visited the chippy downstairs which was very good however the lady serving was the rudest person ever which was Such a shame.

Fantastic time, we had seen James Martin here on one of his TV shows and it looked amazing so we booked and it really lived up to its expectations. The best fish and chips we have ever had along with the best back drop of the church on the hill...

Excellent meal and service, well worth a visit. Would recommend booking in advance on their website.
