Magpie Café

Fantastic fish and chips here and good sized portions. The cafe is really nice inside and the service is great. Val G served us and she's lovely. Toilets are up a couple of flights of stairs, but they do have a lift. I highly recommend eating here.

Fish 🐠 pie 🥧 was excellent, a good 8 out of 10 if not more, sticky toffee pudding was a disappointment since the last time I enjoyed one at the Magpie (many years ago) I'd give it a 6 out of 10 but other dinners may have a different opinion. Staff attentive and friendly, value for money 💷 around 7 out of 10. In my opinion only, not what it once was.

We have been staying here for a week for my birthday which was Tuesday. We called for takeaway fish & chips on Saturday evening and were not disappointed! Absolutely amazing 🤩 we added gravy to our order too which was incredible. The fish was the nicest tastiest we’ve ever experienced. We ended up coming back again for takeaway on Monday evening. The staff were very friendly warm and welcoming and everything was perfect. The pricing was great too, great value and well worth it. A superb experience, thank you everyone 😊

The Magpie is delightful in every way. More than a cafe, there was a seat available for 2 without booking, we sat upstairs. The food was delicious, service excellent, the atmosphere perfect. Not to mention the 'real' tea, with a full jug of hot water, refilled 3 times. We had a lovely view of harbour and Abbey from our window. I have to mention the toilets. In the ladies each toilet had its own wash basin with soap, its own hand drier and mirror, spotless, perfect. Would highly recommend.

We pre-booked to avoid the queue and were seated promptly, though the table was quite small and a bit cramped. Starters were the highlight, especially the goat’s cheese salad and the black pudding bon bons, both packed with flavour. Mains were a mixed bag: the crab and chips were enjoyable, but the salmon salad was disappointing, with the salmon being quite tough. Overall, it was an okay experience, but we’ve had better meals elsewhere in Whitby.
