Wheatsheaf Inn - Scarborough

Lovely atmosphere, went at 7pm and was full of diners, including children, was nearly empty by 8.30, it was the best meal out I’ve had in years, I had chicken and Quattro pate for starters and nut roast for main and it was gorgeous. Was too full for desert, all my family enjoyed their meals too, would highly recommend this place, best meal in Whitby

We called in for some lunch and enjoyed every minute of it . Highly recommended. In beautiful surroundings

Luckily managed to secure a late booking due to a cancellation, The food can only be described as outstanding, A great menu and specials board, Friendly professional staff, The only disappointment being we only got to eat there once during our stay in the area!

The sheaf as it’s fondly known by locals is one of the many outstanding places to eat and drink the North Yorkshire moors national park has to offer. As with most popular and excellent places to eat no mater WHERE it is in the country booking is essential to avoid disappointment. The landlord doesn’t mess around and at Times can seem quite blunt, however this is all in aid of providing excellent food and service to his customers that have booked ahead and are ACTUALLY sat in his restaurant. It is a small pub with a small dining room so it can be difficult to accept walk in diners and it famously flatly refuses to serve “Gallon walkers” who can cause a unpleasant experience for family’s and take over the small but perfectly formed bar area. I have visited many times over the years and NEVER had a bad experience. Ignore winging reviewers, pick up the phone, book a table, turn up on time and enjoy a wonderful meal with good beer at a very reasonable price. If that’s too much to ask then please take your custom to one of the many other pubs and restaurants the national park has to offer, this place will still be full of locals and tourists alike enjoying a great meal. Note. I am absolutely not affiliated with the wheat sheaf or it’s owners in anyway. I am simply just tired of reading reviews from easily offended tourists slating the place which in turn may influence people and then them miss out on a genuinely excellent meal in a fantastic genuine countryside pub.

Called them in the early afternoon to book a table and left a message on the voicemail, including my number, for them to confirm. Didn't get a call back, so I called again at around 6:30pm to confirm. Whoever picked up the phone was a bit rude, he told me he didn't have a table for us and hung up.
