Three of us (one vegan, two meat eaters) stayed in whitby over the busy goth weekend and are here twice for breakfast. Great selection for vegans and meat eaters alike. The food was lovely, however service was a little slow and tables not fully cleaned.
Would definitely recommend a visit.

Called in after seeing the reviews for this place. It wasn’t overly busy and we got a table straight away. We were unsure if it was table service or not so I went to the counter only to be told it’s table service, which was fine but it took another 10 minutes to come over even though most people had been served. We ordered a pesto bagel and a cream cheese bagel and it was very standard food. When the food finally arrived after 35 minutes the bagel was soggy and the food was bland. Another thing we noticed was that a dog was on a chair with its head on the table and also licking food from the chair and table and when they left the staff never cleaned and wiped the table which horrified me. We won’t be back and will try somewhere else next time

One of our party has a gluten, soya and milk allergy, Cranberry Swamp was able to cater for all of those. All the food was very good quality and tasty.
The cafe was closing as we went past on another occasion but they were kind enough to stop and check ingredients in a couple of desserts for the person with allergies as we had not been able to find any throughout the day, and were able to buy a couple.
Thank you so much for your patience and kindness, the desserts were delicious I'm told
We visit here every year with the kids on are holiday as we all love it, but sadly we wont be returning anymore. Im not sure if it has changed owners but we saw a massive difference in food quality. I ordered the kedgeree and it was in edible. We mentioned it to the girls and just got a shrug. The food has gone from fresh and tasty to bland and terrible value for money. Food was missed from orders and our coffe order was also wrong. Sad times!

Odd experience which didn't seem to match the high reviews. I have a feeling the waiting staff were new so I guess we should let them off. Generally poor service. The food was decent but quite stingy portions - just 2 small rashers of bacon on the pancakes for £10.
The hash browns were the highlight - they were top notch.
Overall 3 stars - lost a star for the service and a star for the over priced food.
