The Welcome Inn

On a bitterly cold day in March, we were looking for a dog friendly cafe where we could eat indoors. The Welcome Inn was a good choice. The food was cooked fresh and very well presented. The prices were a bit on the expensive side but the food was very tasty. I've marked it down as they were a bit slow to take our order. And the interior was cramped. Our four legged friend enjoyed being fed the odd couple of chips as she sat under the table.

We really like it here. Visited multiple times over the years and haven't been disappointed. Our recent visits was for dinner and the following day for breakfast. The same chap served us both days who was very pleasant and attentive. I love how the place is decorated with old pictures of scarborough and its always clean here. We had fish chips, mushy peas, bread and butter and a pot of tea. It was all nice. The breakfast fry up was all nice as well with thick cut delicious toast. We will be back next year.

Went here after walking downhill from Scarborough Castle of the hottest day in September (9/9/2023). When we came in, the foreperson said that there may be some tables at the back that could fit us (tables and chairs on ground floor bolted down.) We were barely able to fit in, so one of the members of staff, Julie, said that we could eat upstairs as the chair were able to be pulled out and would be more comfortable for us. I ordered the Large Haddock and my wife the Scampi and chips. We both agreed that these were the best of out respective meals that we've ever had. The batter on the haddock was nice and delicate with the fish itself cooked so well that it flaked away at the gentlest touch of the fork. My wife found her scampi was amazing and she passed me one. It was so fresh and juicy that I couldn't decide on whether I should have gone for that instead, but I have no regrets about having chosen the Haddock. Julie was very accommodating to us. We ordered two large cola's to go with our meals. When we told her we had walked down from Scarborough castle, she brought up a jug of water just to make sure we were kept hydrated. Wonderful Service and an amazing view of the harbour from the upstairs window. Will visit again next time we find ourselves in Scarborough.
