"Sadly I am unable to review the food as we never did get to eat here So, purely reviewing the customer service. Arrived on Saturday as a party of 8 (inc wheelchair) We were told it would be upto an hour wait to get a table as was very busy. We were Ok with this and proceeded to buy drinks at the bar. We then sat outside and waited patiently (we did also have a 2 year old within our group) but we kept her occupied. The man who was taking names came out to see us after about 50 mins and just checked it was us who were the large group (with wheelchair) Then, after about an hour, another young man came out and said “sorry, it doesn’t look like you are getting a table for a good while yet as we can’t get you in” Obviously after an hour of waiting patiently and spending money over the bar this was rather annoying. We were then told we could place an order at the external Fish and chip window (anything from the menu) and take it away. We all agreed (as we were hungry and the child was getting tetchy) that we would do this So, we got our order together and went to the window. Annoyingly we were then told it would be at least another hour for food as it’s the same kitchen. Obviously we then left, as this was just unacceptable. So, in summary, poor customer service (not from the two chaps who were taking names but from the managers pls do not take names for large groups if you can’t get them in. You are happy to then take our money over the bar and make people wait but then to not even have a table is beyond good. Sadly a sour taste left in our mouth from this poor experience."

"GREAT FOOD, GREAT STAFF GREAT VIEW! We were made welcome from the moment we called to book a table. The restaurant is modern, bright, fresh and clean. The menu has an excellent variety of options which include Pizza, pasta, fish, salads, steaks, chicken, a specials board, and children's meals all reasonably priced. We chose the fish and chips, Alfonso pasta and BBQ chicken. All the meals were very tasty, presented nicely, were very fresh and the chips were particularly nice. After our meal our eyes naturally wandered to the desert menu. Usually at this point, the independent restaurants let themselves down by offering an appealing variety of deserts but which too often taste bland and are served frozen in the middle. I must be honest that when i saw the limited three options available here and a picture of a sad looking chocolate cake with a lonely blob of ice cream on the menu, i was not expecting any surprises. I was so wrong! We chose the cheese cake of the day which was Chocolate indulgence and oh boy was it delicious (see pic). It was nicely presented and not frozen and so this finished our meal off beautifully. In all we had a relaxed and pleasant meal made all the better by the nice, friendly and fun staff who went out of their way to make us and the other diners comfortable and feel like valued customers. One more thing I mustn't forget to mention is the superior view of the whole of Filey bay and the coast towards Flamborough Head. I can very highly recommend this lovely and perfectly located place to have your meal."
