Catch of the day - Whitby draws in the foodies.

North Yorkshire is home to some of Britain's best scenery, and in Whitby home to some of its finest seafood. Nick Harman takes the train North for a non carbon footprint break

Is anything what it seems in Whitby? Harry Collet, the man in dread Victorian hat and cape who has just led us round on an informative, dark and spooky Dracula trip, reveals himself to be also the Chairman of the Whitby & District Tourism Association. He tells us this over a pint of local bitter in Whitby’s oldest and most charming pub The Black Horse. The pub is owned by Bill Rae who, it turns out, is also the owner of The Whitby Catch, a forward-looking fishmongers situated right on the quay where the boats come in. He sells his fish to, amongst others, the excellent Green’s Restaurant where Emma Green the manageress, and co-owner with her chef-husband, is also a highly accomplishedwillow sculptor, with commissions from Prince Charles, among others, to her name. Honestly, this place makes your head spin.

" A chef making a name for himself as the Rick Stein of the North by promoting mouth watering fresh seafood has won one of the food industry's most coverted awards......" Mark Branagan Yorkshire Post

" He is  certainly passionate about his business and keen to foster links with the local community and his acclaimed restaurant is raising the stakes in terms of gourmet tourism for the town. Green's is starting to do for Whitby what rick stein did for Padstow, thoughon somethimg of a smaller, more desirable scale. " Kathryn Armstrong - North East Exclusive

 

“…Over a glass of House Merlot, we soaked up the ever changing blackboard menu of daily delights.
Fresh fish from the local market is what makes this place tick magnificently.....
It is a rare and shining star on the region’s eating scene, with Rob’s beautifully chosen ingredients cooked perfectly and put together with imagination to let the taste speak for itself…”
Barbara Argument - Darlington & Stockton Times

“

…Rob Green,chef/patron of the admirable Green’s of Whitby, puts something on his restaurant blackboard that I haven’t seen chalked up anywhere else, home or abroad. He sources his fish right down to the name of the trawler….
Rob & Emma Green have cornered the best of the local catch for  years and cooked it with love and expertise…”
Jill Turton - Yorkshire Post Magazine

“…every once in a while a restaurant comes along that makes me really enthusiastic,
and Greens does exactly that…
food that is so zingingly good on the plate that you want to applaud …
Remember the name, it’s Greens and you must go”
Roy Woodcock, Editor, The Journal.

“…a seriously classy restaurant that manages to be warm, friendly and serves superb food.
It is one of the best restaurants I have encountered for quite some time in this part of Yorkshire…”
Elaine Lemm, Food and Wine Editor, Yorkshire Life

“…Greens by the way is the place to eat in Whitby – assuming you want something a bit
more special than fish and chips…
The Crab Bisque was extraordinarily rich, wonderfully satisfying and beautifully put together…the roast lamb was a big hit, It was melt-in-the-mouth tender, perfectly cooked and, like everything else, beautifully presented…”
Jane Pikett, Editor, North East Exclusive

This is something of a godsend in Whitby, which has a lack of respectable restaurants despite being a fishing port harvesting some of the best seafood in Britain. Rob and Emma Green’s place is quite easy to find in the central harbour area. Cross the swing bridge into the old town and, just a few yards beyond the Whitby Gazette offices, on the right you will find this welcoming establishment, warmly decorated in a deep shade of terracotta. Relax on one of the comfortable banquettes, among the largely local clientele, and choose from a menu of fish chalked up on the blackboard.
