Good evening Simon, whats not to love about a bacon butty,roll,baguette, stottie cake.My personal choice is for crusty types of bread.Again personal choice. Brown (HP Daddies ) sauce. Tomato sauce for fish&chips or pie& chips. Bothams looks a top notch tea room,clean bright and just the right " ambience " The cost is about right for a tourist area 😢 No cheap eats anymore 😢 Hope you and the divine Mrs M are in rude health, and she appreciated your cleaning efforts? Keep 'em coming, we just love your take on Whitby 😊❤ til we meet again. Tally ho Allan&Family
Hi Simon, who doesn't like a bacon sandwich it's certainly one of my favourites! This one looked lovely in a stottie & it was nice to see the ketchup in a separate pot. Thank you for sharing, take care chin,chin 💜
Just catching up. Hope you are feeling more chipper now. I have to say it looks delightful in there from food to decor. Not been in that one always seems a bit pricey but we might try it on your recommendation. ( I'm a fan of buying bacon from my favorite Whitby butcher and eating it in the cottage while staring out of the window). Serious nope to Mcdonalds ugh! We have been to a lovely wedding upstairs in Hetty and Betty, great venue I thought.
Nooo! Surely we don't need a McDonald's on Baxtergate!?!? M&Co was fab. I wish they would make it another normal clothes shop. Anyway, good review. There's an exhibition on up at the museum at the moment called "Our Lasses" about notable Whitby women, from St Hild to present day, with a good bit on Elizabeth Botham. Maybe you could review the museum one day?
Hiya,maybe if more locals had used M&Co when it was a clothes shop it wouldn't have closed down? As Jodi Mitchell sang. : " don't it always seem to go,that you don't know what you got til it's gone. Just saying Allan&Family
@@AllanNeaves-qn3zr They closed all their branches, so the business as a whole was in trouble. My feeling is that the Whitby shop might have been in a stronger position than the others as there's not really that much competition here as on other high streets, but it fell with the rest of the business and they shut the lot. But I don't really know, I just really liked (and used) the shop. Ho hum!
@@shona1578 Good morning shona1578,thanks for the extra information. Yet another business killed after the pandemic & lock down. Sadly it became the normal way to shop from food to fashion just tap,tap on a keyboard, and there it was on your doorstep. Confession, I'm guilty of it myself. Enjoy your day Allan&Family
Looks very nice Simon. I do like the M&S Bacon Buttie £4.50 in a Ciabatta roll. Yummy 👍👍😁 Bothams looked very nice, bit more expensive, but being by the sea is to be expected. Chin Chin
We always head to Bothams on Baxtergate when we are in Whitby it's a nice cafe we will be calling there later this year when we go to Captain Cooks Haven.
Well now, I see you & the Whitby photographer were at the same RNLI party did you converse & exchange notes, but I noticed he got a bit of cake did you?😅 plus we have eaten in Hetty & Betties & found it very nice & in your words “lovely staff “ carry on chaps😊
I like white sliced bread with good quality bacon… If somebody ever serves a brioche bun with bacon….ill run for the hills.. But hamburgers everywhere have been ruined by french cake.. The brioche bacon butty will be named “La Marie Antoinette lard en tranches” or simply a “Marie Antoinette bacon butty”yeuch ! But some people will think it’s lovely…

Rather have a full English breakfast down side of Angel with free tea for £6,50 , and its 9/10 toast and bread/butter included ,the best in whitby i found out ,
Hi, enjoy watching your videos though I did notice can't say iv found a video of you I the Dolphin? If you do go in there say hi to the wife " Sarah" if she's on food service. The pub has new owners as from last Oct Sim & garry lovey people
Simon you are amazing with your videos, But can I just say I annoy you with having a moustache having to wipe it every time, Not being disrespectful mate😊 Just I haven't got one as good as yours so mine does not need wiping lots of last mate only joking
Hey Simon Heaven forbidden a McDonald's in town I hate and that's a strong word...Hate McDonald's I only go in there ,if I'm desperate for a pee. The food is crap . Bothams are decent 👌 Cakes & savouries 😋 What not to like,Happy days😊😊 Hey,Hey Simon You, run out of ideas for reviews ...Never !!😂 Panettone park.. Museum & gardens There's a great cafe 😋 Chin,chin 🫡
Sarnie looked a bit better than the one I got from Greggs Friday. It was like shoe leather. I like s pint in the Black Swan because they sell Tetleys Imperial. Dont know of anywhere else that does so I always have a couple. The Plough Sammy Smiths joint funny named beers used to be cheap but not any longer avoid if you want to do anything but sup because everything else is banned. Dogs kids phones swearing the lot. Maybe thats why the Jolly sailors shutdown as well. The Royal fisheries is okay too No worse than most around the town. Giz a job. 😂
There is a cafe bar almost opposite Bothams. I can’t remember the name but it’s a 2 digit number. Bacon butties there are out of this world. Give it a try
Love Whitby Simon and love watching you, wish I had known who you were when we were at the Krampus Run I was stood right next to you, I have watched you and been a subscriber ever since xxx
Hi Simon another great video you do make me smile . Have you any recommendations of somewhere my hubby and friend can stay a couple of nights near the harbour as they want to go fishing and I am treating him for his birthday nothing g to expensive mind😂
Hi Simon, Seen you other day, walking down silver Street, tried to catch up say hello, you walked too fast for me. So we went in Rusty sheers. Have you tried cranberry Swamp? john
Absolutely love Bothams and a big NO to a bloody Macdonalds 😤😡
£9.95 Simon for a butty and a cuppa . Daylight robbery. We're all brainwashed.

Not me. Would never pay anything like that.
It's the dine in rate, much cheaper on the go

Excellent as always. Thank you.
One of our favourite cafes/bakery shops.
Made me laugh as you passed British Heart Foundation as you strolled on your way to get a bacon sandwich. 😂
Looks absolutley beautiful! Reminds me a bit of the Old Port in Portland, Maine! Best Wishes!
Love Botham’s great Eccles cakes.

Can’t beat a bacon sarnie. Looks nice.👍
That looked lovely Simon, love a bacon sandwich

What camera you been getting
I have 2 X Gopros, a DJI Pocket and an Insta Ace Pro.
Which one would you recommend for me
@@stephendonkin5497 depends what you want to do with it?
Vlogs mate

please dont shop at b and m beause staff are abused and treated like dirt by new ceo alex russo he has ripped out the soul from the company
The three Botham,s in Whitby constitute Police Headquarters..!
Late brother in law worked at Whitby Cobbler (as well as playing guitar in pubs, as i have told you)
Been to the top road one i had nice beef salad roll and lemon bun great place for food hope u enjoy it great video
Ya never mentioned we would have to queue for hours up the stairs 😂😂😂lol
I don't queue....
@@simplywhitby5356 no. I bet you come at 7 in the morning lol. But we are very pleased of your recommendation on TH-cam. Are you out and about today ?
Where you hid the wristband, that was my aunt's house , sadly passed away a few months ago .
Whitby,home of the fleecers.
NOW THATS ONE TASTY LOOKING BACON BUTTY INIT,
GREAT UPLOAD SIMON AS ALWAYS SIR,
CHIN-CHIN,
3:50 oh no, you don’t want a McDonald’s there, anything but another one of those.
Rather have a full English breakfast down side of Angel with free tea for £6,50 , and its 9/10 toast and bread/butter included ,the best in whitby i found out ,

No not been in. It's not a place I frequent.
Like, isn’t there enough crappy mcds in the world, my god. These big greedy companies.
Butter buns with no butter, pizza made with tinned tomato's and grated cheddar cheese! What next
Simon you are amazing with your videos, But can I just say I annoy you with having a moustache having to wipe it every time, Not being disrespectful mate😊 Just I haven't got one as good as yours so mine does not need wiping lots of last mate only joking
Hey Simon
Heaven forbidden a McDonald's in town
I hate and that's a strong word...Hate McDonald's
I only go in there ,if I'm desperate for a pee.
The food is crap .
Bothams are decent 👌
Cakes & savouries 😋
What not to like,Happy days😊😊
Hey,Hey Simon
You, run out of ideas for reviews ...Never !!😂
Panettone park..
Museum & gardens
There's a great cafe 😋
Chin,chin 🫡
Simon that looked lovely but I'm a HP sauce person with a bacon sarnie.
It wasn't cheap but I guess that's because of food costs and overheads.
I've always felt Botham's had odd pricing, picked up a ham, coleslaw and salad sandwich to go for under a fiver today at the top Botham's,
You should get yourself in Hetty and Betty is delish 😋
And hopefully there will be no Mcd’s, disgraceful place!!!

I believe Halifax building Society is closing.
Halifax is to shut down January 2025 - Whitby’s last bank 😢
Love your videos mate😊
Thank you

Bothams on Belle Vue Terrace usta dish up a mean meal about 10 yrs ago. I thought that was where you were off to.
That looked tasty but was that a teabag or a one man tent 🤣👍💜
Love Whitby Simon and love watching you, wish I had known who you were when we were at the Krampus Run I was stood right next to you, I have watched you and been a subscriber ever since xxx
Oh thank you for watching and subscribing.
Hi Simon another great video you do make me smile . Have you any recommendations of somewhere my hubby and friend can stay a couple of nights near the harbour as they want to go fishing and I am treating him for his birthday nothing g to expensive mind😂
I don't like to recommend places as I haven't stayed anywhere in Whitby....apart from my cottage.
Looks good enjoy
Went to Bothams and whilst it is probably the best cafe in Whitby it shows that Whitby hasn’t got any good ones. Not good in my view.
New camera Simon?
Hi Simon,
Seen you other day, walking down silver Street, tried to catch up say hello, you walked too fast for me. So we went in Rusty sheers. Have you tried cranberry Swamp?
john
Many moons ago
Only HP Sauce on bacon butties.
Ketchup on a bacon sandwich N E V R🤮
Just been in there
Try telling a Geordie that that's a stottie....😂
We was sat in bagdale hall at the time you put ya vlog on and I went down to look for the band strat away and it had gone 🤦🏼♀️😥😥
