Nice to see a proper Yorkshire range that hasn't been ripped out and sold at a reclamation yard! Keep pub interiors original, part of our heritage, once they are gone, they are gone for good. Well done for getting your hands on the last pair, ooh matron! Salivating now, great upoad!

I used to HATE the smell of kippers, but now I love it. It reminds me of Whitby, and it genuinely doesn’t smell unpleasant anymore 😅

There's quite an amazing story about how that building became a restaurant. It was never meant to be, until the Police kept intervening.

@@simplywhitby5356 I lived in the Yard when The White Horse in its current format first opened. Stuart Perkins bought it and wanted to run it as a pub. But the licensing authority wouldn't give him a license. So he opened as a Pub anyway. Then every Saturday night for the next few months, the Police raided them and shut them down. Then Stewart worked out if he served food he could serve Alcohol. So he started selling a bowl of chips with a pint. Then as time past, he experimented with food and various chefs (I think Dave Mathews and Eddie Hall were two of the early ones, and went on to be awesome chefs sought after locally), The place ended up getting a name for awesome food and was packed every night, with locals. Next came the reviews, The Independent, Times, Guardian, they all came and said it was one of the best food restaurants around. Prices doubled, locals couldn't afford to eat there, but wealthy tourists took up the empty seats. It went from Strength to strength, and then Stewart pretty much had enough and moved on. But he has created a few other good business around town too. Last seen supping a pint in Sandsend Hart Inn.

Evening Simon. Thanks for the vid. I must pop into The White Horse & Griffin next time I'm in Whitby, it looks a really nice place for a meal. Must stock up on the Fortunes kippers too. Take care now.

You cant beat a Fortunes kipper. Mind you I prefer the kipper fillets because of the less bones. Ive had smoked salmon and bacon from there too. Absolutely gorgeous. Try wrapping them in tin foil with a good knob of butter and do them in the air fryer then the house doesn't stink for hours afterwards. You can also do them in a jug with boiling water but I prefer the fryer.

Hey Simon Fortune kippers for breakfast & why not ? I ❤ Fortune kippers , They're done proper 👌. Not had them at the White horse & Griffin But Me & Mrs have been in there for a cheeky drink or two & we have had a nosey in the restaurant . I remember it's behind the small bar. ❤ly staff in there. It's a fantastic historical place, I was talking to one of the girls behind the bar. Hey, Hey Simon She mentioned the place his haunted 👻 Broken drinking glasses on the floor when the staff arrived for work & one of the staff mentioned she saw a dark shadow Spooky stuff 👻👻👻 I'm glad you & the ❤ly Mrs M are both enjoying a full & joyful retirement. You both deserve it . Cheers 👍 & Chin,Chin my friend 🫡

They remembered you straight away and have had a few people coming in because of your video. Fingers crossed if you go in again you might get a freebie. Definitely a great place and good value. Only a few weeks and I’m back in Whitby, can’t wait.
