The Board Inn, Whitby

Harbour side pub with views and at bottom of the 199 steps so an unenviable location, the beer is good but sadly limited perhaps through a mix of tourist expectations and the dead hand of a pubco. Front bar with three pulls and view of the steps, there's rear and downstairs dining areas with harbour views. Food is a bit ping and fling but good enough and reasonably priced.

Another Whitby Gem

Visited this place a couple of times over the weekend. The picture shows the exterior, an end house, white rendered, just by the Duke of York. The interior has one long narrow room, with a small side room and a downstairs dining area overlooking the estuary. It is a bit twee, with the fake beam look, but still decent enough. The service was fine. In a party of four and we all ate - the food was again, decent enough. It was busy with a mixed clientele Beerwise, the Dark Smooth from my last visit has gone. It had, on handpull, Theakstons XB, Old Peculiar and Deuchars IPA. The OP was fine for a half and the XB very nice. Will go back.

What a great pub just at the bottom of the Abbey steps, very homely and good service, was busy the day I visited, excellent real ales and great views of the harbour, the meals looked excellent and I noticed they advertise quiz nights and live music. A first class pub in a very busy street well worth a visit.

Great pub with loooads of atmosphere.New owners giving it a good go.Worth supporting the beer and lager are all worth a try.Andys at the Dolphin now but still pops in

Great pub. The Theakstons was a bit sweet for me the last time I was in, but the harbour views and the quaintness of the place makes up for any shortcomings with the beer. There used to be a guy named Andy who worked here, and he was such a great guy. Friendly atmosphere, great staff and great views...can't really ask for more.
