Old Boots left this review about The Whippet Inn
Rather more restaurant than I remember previously, possibly due to my senility, the room to the front right has a counter and is more for drinking but people do eat in there now. Behind is a dining room and to the left a sitting or private dining room. The decor is vaguely risqué, the saucy wallpaper still remains. Beer quality is average, the pricing is not.

Primarily a rather smart restaurant, but it can find an odd table or two for drinkers in quite nice surroundings albeit a little begrudgingly. A little row of handpumps offered Roosters 24/7 and Ossett Yorkshire Blonde, with a few local craft on keg also. The beer was in good nick and not too badly priced at £4.30 but the food looked rather on the expensive side. Can only really give it 5 due to non-encouragement of drinkers but would score more highly otherwise.

Real Ale Ray left this review about The Whippet Inn
We received a decent welcome here, in spite of us only calling in for a beer. The staff were friendly and helpful when choosing a beer. There were four handpumps with three in operation and some Yorkshire lagers on draught. The owner explained to us, that he only sold Yorkshire ales and lagers which I thought was a good idea. The small bar on the right, consisted of wallpapered walls, terracotta tiled floor mixed tables and chairs and bench seating along the front wall. The bar area had a black painted front, with a solid oak counter.
There was a small room on the left of entrance, which had a trendy silver buttoned back rest along the wall, was used for private dining only. The main feature in the restaurant was the tin panelled ceiling, which was stamped out in block relief work. The beers we tried were in great shape, which were Bradfield Farmers Blonde and Helmsley Brewing Co Howardian Gold.
