Rusty Shears

A hidden gem of a cafe on Silver Street in Whitby. Located on a lovely little street and away from the crowds this beautiful cafe in a small courtyard is brimming with atmosphere and charm. A very good menu and the food was excellent. Very quick service and lovely staff. We sat in the courtyard under the biggest fig tree I had ever seen. It was a hot day and this tree provided the most wonderful shade. There is seating inside. If parked on the car parks by the harbour you about 10 minutes away but up hill as is everything in Whitby! However the walk is worth it. This is a dog friendly cafe.

We went here for breakfast. Delicious eggs royale! One of the best I have ever had. My husband had a huge sausage and bacon sarnie! Accompanied by a pot of Yorkshire loose leaf tea! Lovely and friendly staff. Thanks will be sure to visit again next time we’re in Whitby.

Lovely Cafe tucked away slightly from the 'tourist' areas but equally not too far. Had a very tasty breakfast which was of the highest quality, superb poached eggs! would definitely visit again.

Oh my god, I loved their bacon eggs Benedict! HIGHLY recommend. Came for breakfast, everything came out quick, atmosphere was lovely and left in a timely fashion. Everything was lovely and smooth. Americano was great too.

Although the place has a nice atmosphere, I was disappointed. From the moment we sat down at the table We waited 20 minutes for someone to take our order, and when we wanted to do it, we found out that almost everything was already sold out and only sandwiches were left. And not even all the sandwiches, just some of them After placing our order, we waited 40 minutes for two sandwiches and fries. Yes 40 minutes. Unfortunately, the staff seemed unsure what to do. Everyone was doing a little bit of everything.Lack of organization and someone to manage who should do what.

We’ve visited Rusty Shears a few times now. Do not go here if you want fast food! Tea is served properly in China tea pots with loose leaf tea. The menu is varied but the breakfasts ( and bacon butties) are really good. They are dog friendly and when I asked for an extra sausage they asked if it was for our dog and fetched out two cool sausages cut up ready for our dog. On our last morning in Whitby we walked past Rusty Shears and our dog turned a sharp left straight into their courtyard! She is a fan as well !

A regular place my wife and I frequent when we are in Whitby. The food is hot, freshly cooked and very, very tasty. The coffee is full bodied and large and the tea is made by using tea leaves, something of a rarity nowadays. It is a very comfortable place to sit and watch other customers eat, drink and chat about their day. The service is not too obstrusive and allow time from entry to order at an acceptable time period. We will be back, next time we are in Whitby. Thank you.

Beautiful little cafe restaurant with a cute outdoor and indoor area friendly lovely staff and very kind and helpful really reccomend the food it was lovely really good quality and super tasty highly reccomend this little gem! More people need to know about it ♥️

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.
