    We are their newest regulars! It was a milestone birthday for my Mum and we couldn’t fault the day. Mum had a great time, the food and it’s presentation was perfect, and the service was the best. Thank you Whitby’s!

    Friendly staff, quick service, beautiful food. What more can I say . It would be great to get a steak knife to cut the sourdough bread ( it's the same anywhere that has sourdough) and an offer of water for the table . But they are minor things . Thank you guys for a excellent experience.

    Location is lovely. Food is overpriced and both our meals were cold: cold poached eggs and cold toast. Person showing us to our table was patronising. Will not return.

    This is a beautiful location overlooking Lake Weeroona. We were seated promptly and with a smile. The food was beautifully presented. I had the zucchini and haloumi fritters and my friend had the calamari. We both agreed it was delicious. The coffee was also very good as was the glass of Balgownie sparkling wine that I had. The wait staff were attentive and friendly once we gained their attention. Whitby has had a rebrand and revamp and the change is definitely for the better. We look forward to returning and sitting out on the deck when the weather is warmer than it was today.

    Really enjoyed the location. Really poor food quality for the price paid. Couldn't swap anything out of a meal and very limited choices. The waiter on the door was fabulous. My friend and I talked about bringing a picnic rug next time and buying an assortment of delish items from Aldi.

    Lovely venue. Well situated on the water with glorious views. Very welcoming to fur babies(pets). Food was good. Only complaint was coffees (even the second round of orders) were tepid to cold. We love our coffee and think that a venue that carries itself to a certain market needs to do better than let the coffees sit around getting cold before being brought to the table. Otherwise all else was lovely.

    is is always reliably good. Staff are very efficient, courteous and prompt. I have noticed over the 2 years that I been coming to this place the staff do not seem to change much which probably shows in their customer approach. Highly recommended for an interesting menu and good food.
