Estbek House - Menu

Friendly staff, fantastic food, lovely venue. Stayed for the night in one of the rooms. Had a really first class evening meal. I highly recommend the ‘fish pie’. Also a wonderful breakfast before leaving.

Outstanding, absolutely superb better than mitchelin restaurants we’ve been to. Instead of small plates with no choice ie tasting menus this had a good choice selection reminiscent of the old masters, the food was superbly balanced. The lady hostess was outstanding, look forward to coming again, highly recommended

Handy for the Cleveland way which pretty much goes past the front door. Very much a restaurant with rooms, both aspects are excellent. Cosy room in the roof space, warm and quiet with a lovely big comfy bed. Slightly tricky staircase on the way up. Dinky little en suite shower room. Food was also very good, seafood market fish) based. Carefully chosen wine list to complement the food. The mini dessert selection/ choices were entertaining, but none of them stood out to recommend. Great breakfast in the morning too.

We came for a special occasion (my 60th) which was made more special by the whole experience. We stayed for 2 nights and both evening meals were amazing! .The fish was cooked perfectly, served with fresh greens and the steak was melt in the mouth with the best chips ever! As for the desserts...well we don't usually do desserts but these were absolutely heavenly. My favourite was the creme brùlee but the others were divine too. Our room had everything we needed with a lovely comfy bed. The staff were lovely and friendly and made us feel welcome. We will definitely return.

Overall, pretty good ,but with a few reservations. Very good staff [bar one] and very good food the sea trout dish we had was excellent apart from the very dry new potatoes which required a good dollop of butter to make them palatable. The wine list only listed full bottles. I asked the waitress if white wine was available by the glass and was told that is was but only in 125ml glasses and either [unspecified] chardonnay or sauvignon blanc. This unbelievable lack of choice is a first for me. If you are arriving by car, you may well need to park in the new and expensive car park a short way away.

Tim and David could not be better hosts. Very welcoming and friendly, and couldn't do more to ensure the comfort of their guests. Both dinner and breakfast were fantastic. Wonderful food, beautifully cooked and excellent value for cuisine of this quality. The carefully curated wine list complemented the menu perfectly. Their AA Rosetees are well deserved. We'd agree with a previous review that Estbek is more of a restaurant with rooms than a hotel. That said, the rooms are well-equipped, comfortable and clean. A gem of a restaurant in a lovely location. Would definitely recommend to anyone with a discerning palate!

Our dinner reservation was on Saturday 12th august which was regatta weekend. We were surprised that a table was available when we booked on the 11th as this is usually very popular. Whilst the food and service was up to normal expectations we found the prices had increase beyond reasonable expectations costing over £60 per head. Checking the menu a day later we noted prices for all food has been reduced for example we were charged £53 for a fillet steak which was £38 24 hours later. Similar reductions were seen on halibut and fish pies and both starters and desserts. We shall not return but advise anyone booking to check and download the menu beforehand and compare this to prices in the nig...

We read the reviews before attending the restaurant and to be honest we did feel abit unsure what to expect. Venue- fantastic, lovely cosy little set up with plenty of space upstairs for dinning. Nice decor. Staff- very polite, very attentive and caring, always talking to you with a smile. Wine- fantastic… however that’s where things stop. Food- although presented well and cooked very well (we had scallops and halibet), there was no seasoning or taste to the meal including the accompanying sauces… we were quite taken back with how bland the food was… now we understand we’re the reviews come in. The cost of the meal was as we’d expect to pay as very similar to normal restaurants we eat in, ho...

Haven 't written a review for several years but this place really pushed the button so here I go. Booked this from Australia months ago based on good reviews and photos of rooms and restaurant. Luke warm welcome and showed to an over heated, airless garret at the top of the house. We had requested a quiet room but this was claustrophobic with a small double bed. Our request to move to another room was granted and we went to another king size bedded room at the front. King size in UK means queen size in most other jurisdictions. Nothing luxurious about this. No nice touches. Knackered pillows and tired old furnishings. Basic bathroom and if you don 't pull on the top of the shower door to get...
