Botham's of Whitby
Whitby & the Coast
Fifth-generation bakers and a tearoom that has not chased fashion.
Why go?
Lemon buns, plum bread and a tearoom upstairs that is exactly the right place to sit out a squall off the sea.
Folkshire says
Buy plum bread for the drive home. It keeps, which is the whole point of it.

- Plum bread
- Resurrection rolls
