Our staying at the Witching Post Inn could have not been better. Our room was spacious and very confortable. And the place has a lot of personality and history. If you want to know the roots of this place you can speak to the landlord, Pete. But more important Pete makes you feel at home, as you are part of the family. The stories, the jokes and the environment in the pub is so cosy that makes you feel you are between friends. And don't look anywhere else for food and drinks. We had dinner in here during the Parmo night, and the food was fantastic, one of the best we had in the area. And this includes the beer and gins. Also, we vouch for the breakfast, the full breakfast is delicious and we couldn't get enough of it. If you are staying the area, please do yourself a favor and stay at the Witching Post Inn. I am glad we chose this place for our staying, and a big thanks to Pete and all the staff for the lovely and welcoming staying

Old-school low ceiling country Inn with bags of character sat with the backdrop of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park. We went on a Sunday so the menu was limited to a traditional roast, two meats, and a vegan option. (Which was a rather delicious sounding Butternut Squash and Beetroot Wellington) We went for the meats.. food was very nice, staff were pleasant and at £19 quid each including a drink, pretty good value too. Well worth a visit if you're in the area on a Sunday.

Highly recommend in Whitby area One night stay en route to Whitby 2 rooms booked. We were greeted with a friendly welcome and shown to our rooms. Rooms were very spacious and clean and had all we required. We went down to the bar for food and drinks the food was very good and enjoyed by the three of us. We enjoyed the evening with the locals and our host who made us all feel very welcome. After a great nights sleep we all had breakfast again very good and couldn't be faulted. All in all a great place to stay if you're in the area and very convenient for visiting Whitby. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Witching Post Inn and would definitely visit again.

My sister and I visited this lovely old inn for lunch today. Excellent meal, well cooked traditional Sunday lunch. Could not fault it. Good selection of beers, not for me today as I was driving. Lot of character, log fires, and a small original whitching post. Well worth a visit

The staff were absolutely delightful! So friendly and kind. The inn owner’s dogs were also adorable, I think every inn should have a Nellie and Molly :)

What a night, we had a brilliant stay at the Witching Post it was a shame it was only one night. We were made very welcome by Pete and his staff had such a good laugh with him and the locals. The inn has a lovely warm happy feel and the rooms were tastefully decorated with very comfy beds. Breakfast 10/10. We had travelled on the Moorlander for a meal. The witching post is close to the station, if you want an overnight stay give Pete a ring you will not regret it. Thanks Pete and team Trish, Terry, Sue and Pete x
