Lovely place terrible vegan options - Edit
The restaurant is housed in a beautiful building and is a really lovely place to dine . The staff were very friendly and attentive but the two vegan options we ordered ( only 2 on the menu ) were awful . My partner hates complaining and is a human dustbin normally but even he couldn’t finish this meal . He said his risotto tasted like someone had used a whole bottle of jiffy lemon . Mine was like ratatouille but the really bad ratatouille you get in cans . It wasn’t cheap and certainly not a great experience . Whitby is generally not great for vegans thank goodness we had an Airbnb flat so that I could cook . Not ideal as I was on holiday and didn’t want to have to cook but the options out were pretty dire .

Delicious Linguine - Edit
Very cute and cosy restaurant, linguine was very tasty. It’s so nice to have a vegan food option in Whitby that isn’t a falafel burger!

Great restaurant - Edit
I love eating at Alberts, it’s a lovely place, full of history and it’s wonderful to sit and have food whilst admiring a massive piece of jet studded with ammonites!

Tasty lunch in beautifully decorated restaurant - Edit
We were looking for somewhere that did something more exciting than (fried in vegetable oil) chips and we found it here.
Read moreAlthough they specialise in seafood, whoever created the menu has clearly thought about different dietary requirements and has, as such, included a couple of vegan dishes. We both went for the pan fried gnocchi, which appealed, with its offer of 'vegan cheese'. It did not disappoint, although we found, as often, that vegan appetites were underestimated. Prices were quite high, but worth it for the beautifully decorated restaurant which has been recently restored.
Pros: Tasty food, Historical links (real Whitby jet is on display), Lots of information around the restaurant
Cons: Limited vegan selection, Slow service

Order with precision! - Edit
We were so glad to find a dog friendly venue with vegan items on the menu. We had the linguini and the homemade “goat cheese” and beet gnocchi which were great. However the VE sandwiches (pear, avo, humous) came served with a garnish of what we thought was not SFV coleslaw. In the end we felt that the person who had devised the menu understood veganism but perhaps not all the staff on this day or kitchen staff. As we’d already made it really obvs we were a mostly vegan group by checking the soup of the day (tomato and basil but included cream, shame!). So just a pity that the coleslaw came on the plate. Also top tip, if ordering linguini, the “side” is almost as much in quantity as the “main”, so much better value.
Read morePros: Dog friendly with space for our group of 7, Warm indoors , Interesting building and history
Cons: Order carefully , Bit pricey , Shame that soup of day was not vegan
