Situated just steps away from the white sands of Whitby beach, the restaurant is the perfect spot to escape to on cold, windy days, or to pick up some food to enjoy by the sea. The cosy space has an old-school charm to it, with wooden chairs and tables spread around the room and the menu scribbled up on a white board. Large windows look right out over the water and also ensure that the dining room never feels dark or gloomy.
The menu, which is centered around sustainable produce, includes starters ranging from mussels cooked with white wine cream and garlic to a Whitby crab and prawn cocktail. Fish and chips takes centre stage when it comes to mains at The Fisherman's Wife, with battered options including cod, halibut, plaice and more. For those who don't fancy fish and chips, you can opt for dishes such as steak pie, seafood curry, or if you're feeling indulgent, lobster thermidor. There are also a few vegetarian dishes on offer, meaning that everyone is catered for.
A short but sweet drinks menu includes various beers on draught, a selection of spirits and liqueurs and a separate wine list.
