"We were on holiday in Filey and wanted an evening meal for 5 adults and 2 children, one of the adults is a vegetarian so we choose our places quite carefully. We arrived one time and our table was ready, the 2 kids went off to play outside on the swings while we ordered and had a pre dinner drink. The starters we ordered were lovely and arrived promptly but there was a wait for the main course which was explained later. My rib eye steak was as good as I have ever had, tender, flavoursome and perfectly cooked, my daughters gammon, my wifes chicken, son in laws lamb shank were all reported as being excellent and very healthy portions, the vegetarian burger was said to be okay but not exceptional and she would choose on of the other vegetarian options next time we visit. The kids meals were just what they wanted, 3 sweets followed a couple more drinks and a coffee. The bill was an unbelievable £117, I have paid much, much more for food well below the standard set by the Spital Inn. The service was good and the wait staff very pleasant and the owner took the trouble to come round, apologise for the delay in our main course being served and explain that 2 staff had not turned up for work and he had been filling in. We all get problems in business but by taking the trouble to speak to us in person he has ensured that we will return."
