The much photographed Harbourside Bistro is located in the centre of the Staith looking out across the harbour to the sea. This Grade II listed building is unique and probably one of the oldest buildings in the village. Full of antique furniture, the accommodation is at present a private residence but is due to become a holiday cottage, with each room offering fantastic views across the historic harbour and is full of character and charm.

It offers the only fresh caught fish and chips in Staithes, as well as the famous Staithes Crab Sandwiches, a large selection of other sandwiches are on offer, along with many other mouth watering delights.

Locals talk of the building being used for smuggling and a residence for the famous Staithes Group of artists. One of its more recent famous residents was actor Peter O’Toole best known for his portrayal of Lawrence of Arabia. The building also appears on many of photographer Frank Sutcliffe’s well known Victorian photographs.
