We came in for lunchtime scampi chips and curry sauce and chips and gravy. Service was prompt & polite & dog-friendly. I had a very nice bottle of 6% IPA which set me up for the afternoon. Curry sauce was tasty and the scampi numerous. Remember to bring a bit of cash to tip with if you are going to pay by card.

Called in today for Sunday lunch and was met by a very polite , welcoming young man. He showed us to a table and a few minutes later a waitress took our order. She too was extremely polite and friendly. We ordered a Chicken and Stuffing Sunday Roast and the Homemade Meat Pie. The meals were absolutely delicious, hot and plentiful. If we're in Scarborough again on holiday we shall definitely return!

The perfect escape from crowdy street. Quite, clean no smells or streaky tables. Good traditial food, no complaints. And point where some people moaning I would say it's perfect when you pay upfront! You don't need to wait or catch someone to pay. 100% recommended!

Popped in here today for a drink and the use of the facilities. Staff were extremely friendly, service was quick & easy. I used the toilet, quite possibly the cleanest public toilets I've been in a long time and are stoma friendly too - which they should shout about. Will definitely try again for food another day - looked gorgeous.

Being asked to pay before food and drink is consumed in a place where you are seated by staff, indicating table service I felt was the only negative but since everything else was positive: Helpful staff, prompt service and good communication and awareness of allergies etc I'm awarding a 5 but it was nearly a 4. Historical and interesting setting. Friends happy with tea. Curry sauce good. My own personal taste is cauliflower slightly better done but I ate it all. Good portion of diet coke. Attention to detail. Would recommend.

Had a wonderful visit to The King Richard III. We were lucky to pick a lovely sunny Saturday in September. The actual building is stunning with awesome stone work. Food & Drinks is good, as was the staff/ service. I thought they did well considering how busy it was. I would highly recommend the food & well worth a visit. Dog friendly too.

Lovely place to stop and eat, food was delicious and the waiting staff were great. The building is amazing and it's worth a trip inside to see the beautiful stone work and decor. Toilets are upstairs so might be an issue for anyone who struggles with mobility, but the staff were accommodating for people with prams.
