are there any nice places to eat in whitby

or nice chippys that anyone can recommend

Trenchers fish restaurant is the best place ever to eat in Whitby. Highly recommend it.
All the chippys in Whitby are very good there is a little one on the harbour whose name I do not remember but for restaurant sit down lunch or dinner TRENCHERS is the best

Trenchers rarely has locals visit it because it is hellish expensive for what is basically fish & chips. The place is run solely for the tourist market.

If you want fish & chips to takeaway, all the locals use The Railway Chippie which is about 4 mins walk from the train station. If you want directions, let me know.

For meals out (NOT fish & chips) I recommend the Moon & Sixpence on the west harbour side, or The Red Chard (brilliant steaks) on Flowergate. For bar meals in town I recommend the Resolution Hotel on the corner of Flowergate/Skinner Street.
If you fancy an Indian meal, go to the one situated in the train station and NOT the one over the road (I've seen the kitchens - gross!)
For a chinese meal, the restaurant attached to the Metropole Hotel on West Cliff is the best one.
Other restaurants I would recommend you AVOID (due to personal bad experiences) are The White Horse & Griffin (Church Street), Greens Restaurant (Bridge Street) and Bagdale Hall on Bagdale.

Finally, a word on the world famous Magpie on the pier road. The fish & chips are good but again, very expensive for what they are. Plus, you will have to queue.
