This place is in a great location. If you're in a group of people over 18 you'll be able to go into the over 18's bar, which overlooks the harbour.

A little tired maybe but very pleasant with a nice atmosphere. Looks straight out over the harbour and they have a ban on swearing, phones and laptops etc. and they encourage "beer and conversation" like pubs years ago. Unfortunate that meals are not available but given the size it would be impractical. The lady behind the bar ( on the day that we there, anyway ) can sign, so very good if one us deaf.

I find it hard to understand why Sam Smiths pubs insist on only serving only their own beer. To me the greatest attraction of a pub is discovering an old favourite or something new and tasty. Whenever I get to the bar of a Sam Smiths pub and realise I am in one I am always disappointed. On top of the mediocre beer choice this pub was cash only which seems archaic given the last 18 months we have all endured! We found much better places to drink in Scarborough.
