Well what can we say about The Moon and Sixpence. We have been coming to Whitby for several years now and found the restaurant on our first trip. What a gem in the heart of Whitby. The food is amazing (with the options changing seasonally) and is good value for money. The staff are very polite and even remember us... More

My friend and I booked a table for last night. We were greeted warmly when we arrived and taken to the restaurant area. The food choices on the menu were lovely, and the food well presented , served, and on our part enthusiastically eaten! The cocktail menu is really extensive, and I had a beautifully presented Cosmopolitan. The creme brulees... More

Such a lovely night that we went again... More

This faux par unfortunately set the scene for the service throughout the meal. All six members of the party had a starter and main, along with several drinks. The food and drinks were... More
