Rusty Shears

I recently visited Rusty Shears in Whitby and was thoroughly impressed. The establishment offers cosy outdoor seating in a charming courtyard, as well as indoor tables spread across several rooms. The interior of the restaurant is striking with its vintage atmosphere. The building, crockery, and decor all contribute to a sense of stepping back in time. You can truly feel the history in the air, which adds a unique charm to the place. The service at Rusty Shears is excellent. The staff are polite, attentive, and work very efficiently, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, Rusty Shears is a fantastic spot for those who appreciate a historic ambiance and top-notch service. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Whitby!

Called in here this morning for breakfast. Very welcoming and friendly team, cosy decor, an extensive tea selection served in lovely pots and a pretty wonderful breakfast menu. Enjoyed the Full English.

Quirky little cafe at the top of the hill off a side street with a lovely little courtyard that takes you through to a eclectic, homely cafe selling breakfasts and lunch time dishes. A couple of vegetarian items on the main menu plus a lovely Rustys veggie snack on the specials board, which is; a couple of potato cakes topped with wild mushrooms & poached eggs, hollandaise sauce, tomato and dried onion. All very nice but the service was slow and we had to ask for them to take our orders as I think they'd forgotten us and the dried onion was too hard for me, it felt like I was eating twigs. Apart from that, it's worth making the treck to find it.

Every time we come to Whitby, this is a destination cafe for us to have a meal, especially a nice breakfast. Lovely staff, good portion sizes, good prices, relaxing atmosphere with a quiet courtyard to dine in when the weather is nice.

Quiet breakfast on a Friday morning. Really tasty breakfast in nice surrounds. Quality over quantity. Definately worth the effort in finding it.

Stopped here during the goth weekend on Saturday and loved it! Been here many times and they are always busy with good reason. Coffee was great, table and toilets were clean. As mentioned it was super busy but the waitress still managed to get things quickly and remember all the cakes on offer. Cannot wait to visit again next year

This has to be the friendliest bar/ cafe in Whitby. We stopped in on the annual quiz ( steampunk weekend) or rather large dogs were treated as royalty and we were made so welcome. Is definitely on out list of favourite Whitby places now

I absolutely love this place. It was recommended by a friend who knew we were coming to Whitby. You would never know it was there, it's behind a gated wall which takes you into a lovely court yard with lots of greenery were you can have a drink before you eat. Inside is amazing and quirky, it's like being asked around for tea by a friend. The staff are superb and extremely knowledgeable about the food they are serving you. Great gin bar serving local gins and again they know all about them. Such a relaxing atmosphere. It was so good we tried to go back the next week but they were full unsurprisingly. Definately going to come back

One of the best meals we've had in the UK. Everything is fresh and creative. Decent wine selection and an unbelievable gin selection (101 varieties to be exact). The sandwiches are perfect. From the roast beef to the egg mayonnaise to my favorite, the crab. World class cappuccinos and desserts, as well. You're welcome to dine on the patio, which permits dogs, or in the lovely dining room.
