The Whalebone Pub And Scrimshaws

We visited today for lunch and we were really disappointed. The garlic bread starter was not toasted/cooked at all and just tasted doughy and dry, the soup had no flavour.

the whalebone inn had only one birthday dinner. best fish, chips, peas and tartar sauce had in years. had it on a groupon offer of medium fish with unlimited chips for 2 at £16. plus got an additional 20% discount, which means paid £12.80 Not...the most luxurious of the environment, but comfortable and friendly staff. will definitely go back.

We went tonight for Howard's quiz but hadn't had much in the way of tea beforehand so decided to treat ourselves. My husband had the scampi and my son I had the cheesy chips. All looked and tasted wonderful. We also had a portion...of the chocolate fudge cake to share. We'll be back for more very soon, thank you x
