Where memorabilia magic sets the tone,

radio songs bring sadness on the wing;

The Abbey Steps Tea Room leaves my breaths alone.



With cosy seats and warmth till gasping’s done,

black cats and broomsticks can’t make all hearts sing,

where memorabilia magic sets the tone.



Yet tea and coffee’s comforting as home;

cakes don’t cost the earth: your children bring,

The Abbey Steps Tea Room leaves your breaths alone.



There’s lollipops and snacks, so climbers come,

those 199 steps hold much less sting,

where memorabilia magic sets the tone.



All tourists at the bottom – each a stone –

attempts this captured window-gazing’s spring.

The Abbey Steps Tea Room leaves their breaths alone.



Exhausted beneath St Mary’s, where you lie prone,

consider tea and cake (reign as a king,

where memorabilia magic sets the tone.

The Abbey Steps Tea Room leaves my breaths alone.

Stayed here for 2 nights May bank holiday. Room was spotless and view out to sea was amazing. Alice was the perfect host. Next trip to Whitby I know where we are staying (if she will have us again).

Quirky 'Goth' themed little cafe. Great variety of drinks and snacks. Good service. Will be going back.

Quaint tearoom with a twist at the bottom of the 199 Abbey steps ��

The Scream-Shakes are a must! So indulge!

Perfect location, little old pubs and nice restaurants, can not say enough, lovely room and wake up to that view is stunning , been to Whitby often and will be back to Abby steps soon , thank you

Lovely tea room and lovely carrot cake, very generous with the portion size and the squinty cream 😊

Lovely little place nice atmosphere staff very friendly will be back

Lovely café. Loved all the gothic stuff inside. Reminds me of my house. Enjoyed our food and great staff. Will be back.

Lovely and friendly place nice to have a bite to eat and drink before tackling the steps up to the abbey

Just back from a 3 days stay at this little gem of a place! Stayed in Whitby many times,but the view alone here from our bedroom window took my breath away! We will definitely be back, hopefully sooner, rather than later.....Thankyou xx

I stayed in the guest house for 2 nights, and have to say, what a fantastic place. Perfect location for the centre of town, and not far to walk to get anywhere around Whitby. The owner is great and very easy to have good chin wag with. I will certainly stop here again on my next visit to Whitby.

Had lunch at abbey steps tea rooms today and it was superb, the prawn salad is to die for! My sons had panini and thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks Gary and Sharon we will be returning again soon

Friendly welcome. Had a light lunch Ham sandwich served with salad and coleslaw and a nice teapot of Yorkshire tea. Good value

Charming little cafe at the bottom of the steps, wounderful gothic decor and a warm welcome. Heard the shakes are awesome, didn’t have one this time but intend to when visiting Whitby next!

Brilliant Milkshakes had the Zombie one friendly helpful staff

Beautifully understated goth interior, great service, lovely food and drink selection, friendly owner. What more do you need? �

A lovely atmospheric café with interesting menu choices! We had a delicious gothic themed subdae apiece.
