Was looking for a nice quiet place in the back streets for coffee to take respite from the sun. This was a stunning place to chill with loads of books on the shelves. Loved it, the coffee was lovely and the cake just so moist. The little postcard on the wall was just right and summed it up, the spot... More

We visited becketts on our last visit to Whitby and will certainly be making it a must every time we go there. The cake is sublime and very interesting with loads of choice and huge slices. We shared one and had the other as a takeaway. The staff are charming and as chatty as you want, not pushy at all.... More

The cake is absolutely amazing here as is the ambience, the coffee, the staff and everything about the cafe! A definite must visit when in Whitby. Dogs are also welcome which was great with a corgi and a greyhound!

Really delicious, very moist cakes (we tried a few!) and excellent coffee. Even bought a book. Nice atmosphere and very helpful, pleasant staff.

We love to visit Becketts when we visit Whitby. All the food is beautiful both sweet and savoury. Little helpful touches like reading glasses to borrow and water bowls for dogs. The straw are curled in a fun way which our daughter found very entertaining! The staff are quick and efficient with their service not to mention helpful and friendly.... More

Staff are very welcoming, coffee is great as is the food, and best of all it is dog friendly. There are also second and books on sale - great variety and reasonably priced

This is a little shop where the walls are lined in books. They serve homemade cakes which ALL look delicious. We had the orange chocolate swirl. YUMMY!
