Scarborough is not only a historic seaside town but also a diverse dining scene on England's North Sea. Even better, most restaurants cook with produce sourced from surrounding farms in the North York Moors, such as fresh herbs and veggies and meat raised in the lush countryside. And there's the nationally famous seafood that comes off the boats and straight into the kitchens.
So if you're in the mood for traditional British pub food, classic fish and chips, French bistro-style fare or authentic Italian and Turkish cuisine, you'll find a local favourite in Scarborough. Read through our list for ideas of the best places locals love to eat in Scarborough.

Scarborough Harbour
Don’t forget to add salt and vinegar in your fish & chips
- อาหาร
The historical harbour has been at the heart of Scarborough for centuries. The fishermen still bring in their fresh catches every day, so it’s no surprise that the harbour is also a hub of excellent seafood restaurants. Naturally, the dish of choice is the traditional fish and chips, available from great places like Winking Willy’s, First Catch, and Harbour View Café. As the name suggests, Harbour View offers great scenery across the sheltered moorings, towards the old lighthouse.
A classic serving of English fish & chips is often enjoyed as a takeaway, wrapped in paper and eaten with a wooden fork. Adding plenty of vinegar softens up the crispy batter around the flaky cod or haddock, as well as giving the meal a distinctive tang.
