Should have gone for a Wethers Special + Drinks included! My missus had never heard the expression, "having your pants pulled down", she thought that's why you were upset. I haven't stopped laughing.
That Christmas Dinner sounds disgraceful. I would certainly complain to the manager especially charging those prices. So sorry to hear you lost your mum.Lost my dad recently, his funeral was last Monday and lost mum last year so I know how you feel.Lets hope 2024 is a better year.
I couldn’t agree more and tbh looking at that table you wouldn’t think it was decorated for Christmas. The amount Simon paid they deserved better. Ik down south it’s much dearer but I bet next year they’ll be able to find a more nicer place for cheaper
So sorry to hear about your Mum and poor Mrs M..... We had the dreaded lurgy for the first time this year. She may feel very tired for a while. THAT DINNER - what the h.... no wonder you left a review. When I eventually get to Whitby again (hopefully before May I'm going to get one of those wristbands!) All the best to you and Mrs M and the family for 2024 - make it a good one!
It's generally the case the posher the place looks, they'll have your eyes out. Every 20 k wedding I've been to has been crap for service quality and beer price. All the best Simon keeps the vid's coming as they're most enjoyable.
So sorry to hear about your mum's passing my sympathy to you and your family. Do hope Mrs. M is feeling abit better. What a terrible Christmas meal absolutely shocking definitely won't be going there!! Wishing you and Mrs. M a very happy New Year chin chin xx
Sorry Simon i dont care what day it was I would have complained. I already decided im not going to be cooking Christmas dinner if im on my own again. Hope Mrs M gets better and hugs to you for the lose of your mum xxx
Hi Simon, that is outrageous mate, I know you didn't kick off but I would have had to shame them there and then but that's me lol. I hope you get back some compensation in the end. We've been trying to find a wrist band all week while we've been in whitby with no success and we missed this one too 😪. Going home tomorrow so maybe next time. Have a great new year 👍
had a peak at your vid and thought seems a nice guy so subscribed condolences about your mum mate i lost my mum few years back at xmas time know what its like enjoy your new year best you can raise my glass to you btw that meal looked appalling and ridiculous service all the best alan from scotland
Had a similar experience at a well known Hotel in Bedford. We actually stayed Christmas Eve to Boxing Day. Christmas Dinner was appalling - turkey on a roll and the so called pavlova was a meringue nest with a bit of fruit. I did complain and even the staff were in tears as they couldn’t cope with the number of complaints and people leaving. I didn’t pay for either of the meals on Christmas Day or Boxing Day. You definitely should have complained there and then. I really hope you get some compensation.
Sorry for your loss simon, omg what an awful christmas meal too I don't know how these places stay on business!! Hope Mrs M is on the mend, happy new year to you too both. 🎉
Thought we had a bad do at Papa's in Whitby this Xmas Eve. But ours was a banquet in comparison to that shite up at Woodlands. We too only live about 15 mins away from there. Never been but heard good reports of it in the past. We only drove past it on Saturday on the way into Leeds for a days drinking sesh. Hope all the family get better ASAP fella. All the best for New Years..
Simon. So sorry to hear about your mum. My sincere condolences to you. I lost my mum in March 2021 but still expect to see her when i visit my dad. All the best for 2024 thought my friend.
Next door to the bank, or next door but one, there used to be a fish restaurant called Mills Café. I remember going there as a young man on holiday with mum and dad 50 years ago, it was quite superb
Sorry to hear about your Mam Simon 😢 ,hope Mrs M recovers soon, that Christmas Dinner was disgusting I would have refused to pay omg what a rip off 😢 Xxx
Simon our sincere condolences on the loss your mum. Meanwhile congrats to the happy couple, what a time you have had. Really hope Mrs M ( and the rest of the party) feels better soon, Covid is a horrible thing. As for that venue they need to pull their socks up and offer you a refund or a do over. I know you have more important things to think about and I admire your sense of humor in the face of a pantsing but really, ninety quid covered three days meals for three in our house and that included three jars of home made cranberry jelly!
Well Simon, get all your family over to Whitby for excellent Christmas food. Our local Grosmont Ladies Club had a Christmas meal at Sneaton Castle and wow what a meal we had. Nothing was too much trouble, there was so much food and the choice of vegetables was outstanding. All the courses were imaginative and above all appetising. The surroundings are beautiful and magical, give it a try.
Hi Simon, my condolences for you and your family, sorry for your loss. That hotel should be ashamed of themselves for poor service, share and avoid like the plague!
Hi Simon sorry for your loss our condolences. Well the meal what a disgrace! I Hope they read trip advisor and offer you compensation I would also wite to them I wouldn't stop complaining! Hope Mrs M is better soon you take care❤
A very good morning Simon, a quick thank you for tipping the wink re your comments on Trip Advisor. Which by the way we're quite restrained, far more than I would have been. Having read quite a few last night ,a mixed bag of the good,the bad& the ugly. Sadly it seems you got the "Z Team" on duty that day, Who to be fair, did pass the Ebenezer Scrooge school of hospitality (hons& goldish star)😢 Hope the divine Mrs M is getting over her Covid,and that Christmas " lurch" So,Simon to you and your family I wish you a healthy, happy & peaceful New Year in 2024 and lots more of Whitby. Pop,clink,chnk bottoms 👆 Allan&Family
Hi Simon sad news about your mom and disappointment with the hotel but you will move on .could you do a review on the pirate smuggling tunnel from under the Angel weatherspoons pub the reception Lady will show you were the entrance is 😊
My uncle once booked Holiday Inn for Xmas dinner and it was around same price and just as awful , never book hotels anymore for events , instead go to local pubs as they need the business and wont rip you off.
Hi Simon, sorry to hear about your mum ❤ I can't believe they didn't even trim the table & put crackers on, the food looked very poor, I hope you have written a formal complaint 🤬 Hope Mrs M feels better soon. S&J 🚂
Hi Simon, sorry to hear about your mum. We're sorry you had a bad experience at the hotel. You need to write to them and a copy in their head office, if they are part of a chain, to get anything done about it. Well done for naming and shaming. Best wishes.
That hotel was about as festive as a damp bonfire night in Merthyr Tydfil. I would have offered them what you thought the meals were worth (£5 a head max).
when you started laughing you remineded me of Alistar Simms in Christmas Carol, "Why am I laughing". Seriously terrible state of affairs, think you got dry docket there
An absolute disgrace, it would have been a battle royal if it'd been our lot! I respect your restraint, that "food?" was disgusting. I've had better grub in 'spoons.
I went to the Freemasons (secret) Christmas meal last year, £30 per head we had one sprout each, and it was butterflied in half to make it look like more, 2 pieces of carrot one slice of turkey and a gravy boat between six people we were almost fighting over it 🤣. Mind it still makes good conversation and something to laugh about. You have to complain otherwise they'll continue to rip people off. Leave Google review. Hope you have a better New year celebration and Mrs M gets better soon.
Nice to see you Simon, that meal was disgusting, no decorations etc, very poor, should have been a lot better for that price, hope Mrs m is better soon, I'm like you I've not had covid at all yet, keep well, looking forward to your video's in the new year
Very deepest condolences on your ❤Mommy’s “absence” ( 2 Corinthians 5:8)🎚❗️❗️❗️ Don’t even think about the fiasco of dinner, even though the experience was monetarily costly. May Almighty God comfort and bless you and those you love🎚❗️❗️❗️
I am absolutely gob smacked over the years I have been to pub Christmas lunches and l have never been disappointed and the Christmas decorations were always fantastic if l had gone there well l think l might have had the screaming habdabs Happy New Year
It’s nearly impossible to get your money’s worth out of anything these days! Even when you pay a arm and a leg for something you’d expect to get top notch treatment!
Hi Simon, God, if you didn't laugh you'd be greetin. Thats a hell of an amount for what you got, still you've done best thing posting on Trip Advisor. Hope the family feel better soon n you stay germ free 🥰😷
You've had a ropey few weeks by the sounds of it. Its been a bit rough in Whitby hasn't it? Sorry to hear about your Christmas day meal. Looked grim. Anyway take care and I hope Mrs M gets better soon.
Hi Simon, Oh Dear definitely not the lovely Christmas Dinner you had all hoped for & well over priced too! So sorry that Mrs M & some of the family have come down with COVID, hope they'll all be feeling better soon! Thank You for all the wonderful 1st Class Videos, looking forward to upcoming ones too! Wishing You, Mrs M & the Family a Happy New Year, love & best wishes. Take Care,Chin,Chin 💖💜
Hi Simon, I’m so sorry to hear about your mum ❤️ and sending you and your family deepest condolences. I hope Mrs M is feeling better and all the best for the new year, take care.
Never seen your vids before, firstly so sorry to hear you lost your Mum. A few years back we also had a bad experience eating out Christmas day, The Cauli was so hard, that Uncle John put his fork in and it shot up and hit the ceiling. The potatoes were cold and were deep fried but soggy. Those that had beef found sinew in the meat and it was so chewy it was inedible. My turkey was lovely and tender but was totally cold. Prawn cocktail for starters I had 6 prawns - uncle John had 20 (so that cheesed me off) Anyway, we complained and got vouchers for a free meal to go back there. (that time I had a steak that must have come from an oap cow lol) PLEASE COMPLAIN AND ASK FOR COMPENSATION. Brill vid tho, what a disgusting rip off.
Sorry for your loss. Sounds like you'd have had a better Christmas dinner at Witherspoons for a fraction of the price. Must be the snuff keeping covid at bay
Am sorry it ruined your Christmas Simon. For the price you paid it was rubbish and if that was me I’d have complained I mean it didn’t even look like a Christmas table
TBH you got more then sense , there are pensioners life myself that couldn’t even afford a £4.99 cook from frozen dinner and you wasted nearly £2000 on a meal . Disgusting!!!
OK I haven't watched the video, & in no way am I taking sides here, but I guess it depends on how many people were in your group & if you ordered expensive wine, secondly surely you saw the prices in the Menu?
19 were booked, but 2 were missing due to illness. As the video title states.. drinks were not included. Yes we saw the prices and the menu prior to booking and paying up front.
Hey Simon I'm sorry to hear that you had pants pull well & truly down for your Christmas day family meal. There is no excuse for a bad meal with poor service added. I must say that booking a suitable venue for a Christmas day meal & receiving good food & service is a minefield. Thinking on, not to add salt to your wounds & looking at that food & service you received . I think you would've done much better booking a table at your local spoons. Me & Mrs k had a great Christmas dinner at home with our son & his girlfriend. Hey ,Hey Simon I do hope that hotel is watching this & that they're hanging their heads in shame after seeing this Review. I don't think they will get many bookings next year if things don't change now you have posted their failings to your subscribers. Best wishes & Chin, Chin my friend 🫡👍
Hi Simon, sorry to hear that. I live in Australia. I think this is what people mean when they say the Brits make terrible , stodgy food. They go to a hotel like this one and hang on to that bad memory forever. I was in England in 2017 , stayed in Ongar , caught the bus to Epping , and the train to all parts of London , and found that the food was great , cheap eats included like the famous Bagel shop in Brick Lane. Merry Christmas to you and your family , and I've just subscribed to your channel ! Thanks for the vid ! Mike
First off Simon, let me say how sad i felt about the death of your mother, always a blow😢That and getting "Mugged " Bloomin'eck did you kick a black cat.Were the staff all wearing masks, carrying bags marked " swag ??" Can't really put in to words,how bad that looked or sounded. As ex- job( retired chef) things can go belly up.😮But did you visit the stables? Cos dem der cowboys didn't ride into town. Take it a new venue for next year?😢 Simon,I'll raise a glass to your late mum& mum's every where. Bless 'em all ❤Allan&Family
So that works out at £80 a head if you said 22 people as I recall? Absolutely disgraceful if the food was as you described. I think in these situations it may be a case of the management offering more than the staff can provide....That or just pure and simple profiteering. So your review and this video should be enough to put others off using the place. Happy New Year to you all anyway.....Just add braces to the belt to keep your pants up 😛🤣🤣
Simon your description of the prawn cocktail was an exact copy of my mums , she and my sister were also ripped off down south , same old excuses as well we are out of stock ….. really at Christmas .
Hi Simon hope MRS M is feeling better soon. Your Christmas dinner looked disgusting l know it’s the one time of year that you over pay but 1,760 00 was robbery and with out drinks they don’t deserve any customers and even lacking in Christmas decorations looked a boring place that doesn’t care about customers only good thing about this place looks nice on the outside
Well I think it's a bad mistake going for nosebag on Christmas day your paying far too much money even if you get a good meal which you didn't. I think you would have been better off going out for a nice meal in January/February time when these places are a lot quieter it will cost you a lot less money and you will undoubtedly get a better meal and service then you could buy Mrs M an E scooter to get around on the money you have saved.
Disgusting, you would have eaten better in hospital, all that money, you should have complained strait away, probably because of your horrible time lately. I admire your restraint 😮
The video caught my eye because I thought he looked a cool dude and a snappy dresser and you are my friend. So sorry to hear about your sad news and Christmas day farce. We left the UK years ago and stories like this leave me open mouthed at rip off Britain. Occasionally we have to go back to the UK and it never cases to amaze me of the poor to no standard of service and value for money eating out can be. Least you can laugh about it which is more than I would do, hope you get some money back or at least a free meal. If it helps alittle you get a like and a subscribe from me.
Should have gone for a Wethers Special + Drinks included! My missus had never heard the expression, "having your pants pulled down", she thought that's why you were upset. I haven't stopped laughing.
Whoever runs this establishment ought to be ashamed of themselves........
That Christmas Dinner sounds disgraceful. I would certainly complain to the manager especially charging those prices.
So sorry to hear you lost your mum.Lost my dad recently, his funeral was last Monday and lost mum last year so I know how you feel.Lets hope 2024 is a better year.

It’s the snuff that keeps the bugs away 😂😂
It definitely does.

It was pre-paid
Alas, over Xmas our Brother -in-law , who lives in Whitby, passed. They moved from Bradford to retire. Deepest sympathy for your loss
Simon our sincere condolences on the loss your mum. Meanwhile congrats to the happy couple, what a time you have had. Really hope Mrs M ( and the rest of the party) feels better soon, Covid is a horrible thing. As for that venue they need to pull their socks up and offer you a refund or a do over. I know you have more important things to think about and I admire your sense of humor in the face of a pantsing but really, ninety quid covered three days meals for three in our house and that included three jars of home made cranberry jelly!
Hi Simon, very sorry to hear about your Mum, bloody hell how much!!, keep up the fantastic videos, Happy New year to you and Mrs M
Well Simon, get all your family over to Whitby for excellent Christmas food. Our local Grosmont Ladies Club had a Christmas meal at Sneaton Castle and wow what a meal we had.

I am so sorry for bad Christmas mate but happy new year
Sending my condolences 🙏 my mum's funeral was last month x I do think you should have complained whilst there though x

Oooh Yes !!!!! We stayed at Wetherspoons early in December and the receptionist told us about it too ..apparently it is haunted too 😮
My uncle once booked Holiday Inn for Xmas dinner and it was around same price and just as awful , never book hotels anymore for events , instead go to local pubs as they need the business and wont rip you off.
Sorry to hear about your Mum. Always lovely to see another video from you.
Hi Simon, sorry to hear about your mum ❤ I can't believe they didn't even trim the table & put crackers on, the food looked very poor, I hope you have written a formal complaint 🤬 Hope Mrs M feels better soon. S&J 🚂

Thank you, I will
I've heard of robbery before but this is ridiculous.
Hi simon. Happy new year! thank you for the band you gave me in Wetherspoons.Cant wait for more videos next year.
Thank you.
You could have left them a wrist band or two at woodlands ,preferably with whitby kippers in them ,bk of radiators, under tables ha ha 🎉
Would love to see their comments mate
That hotel was about as festive as a damp bonfire night in Merthyr Tydfil. I would have offered them what you thought the meals were worth (£5 a head max).

when you started laughing you remineded me of Alistar Simms in Christmas Carol, "Why am I laughing".
Seriously terrible state of affairs, think you got dry docket there
Probably a change of the staff is the usual cause of quality going down in restaurants etc
My Man!
(Hugs)
I enjoyed the sips of Joe.
Stay good my Man.
Bless you, you should get a refund, how absolutely rubbish !!!!!!!
An absolute disgrace, it would have been a battle royal if it'd been our lot! I respect your restraint, that "food?" was disgusting. I've had better grub in 'spoons.
I went to the Freemasons (secret) Christmas meal last year, £30 per head we had one sprout each, and it was butterflied in half to make it look like more, 2 pieces of carrot one slice of turkey and a gravy boat between six people we were almost fighting over it 🤣. Mind it still makes good conversation and something to laugh about. You have to complain otherwise they'll continue to rip people off. Leave Google review. Hope you have a better New year celebration and Mrs M gets better soon.
Nice to see you Simon, that meal was disgusting, no decorations etc, very poor, should have been a lot better for that price, hope Mrs m is better soon, I'm like you I've not had covid at all yet, keep well, looking forward to your video's in the new year
Very deepest condolences on your ❤Mommy’s “absence” ( 2 Corinthians 5:8)🎚❗️❗️❗️ Don’t even think about the fiasco of dinner, even though the experience was

Sounds like Fawlty Towers🇨🇦
did you get a refund ?
No
Sorry to hear your news Simon, and what a dinner, stick to spoons in future at least you know it’s what it is. Take care👍
I am absolutely gob smacked over the years I have been to pub Christmas lunches and l have never been disappointed and the Christmas decorations were always fantastic if l had gone there well l think l might have had the screaming habdabs Happy New Year
It’s nearly impossible to get your money’s worth out of anything these days! Even when you pay a arm and a leg for something you’d expect to get top notch treatment!

You've had a ropey few weeks by the sounds of it. Its been a bit rough in Whitby hasn't it? Sorry to hear about your Christmas day meal. Looked grim. Anyway take care and I hope Mrs M gets better soon.

Thank you.
Sorry to hear about your mam and your Xmas dinner keep smiling and laughing your laugh is fantastic and always makes me smile rvsn on a rainy day
Never seen your vids before, firstly so sorry to hear you lost your Mum. A few years back we also had a bad experience eating out Christmas day, The Cauli was so hard, that Uncle John put his fork in and it shot up and hit the ceiling. The potatoes were cold and were deep fried but soggy. Those that had beef found sinew in the meat and it was so chewy it was inedible. My turkey was lovely and tender but was totally cold. Prawn cocktail for starters I had 6 prawns - uncle John had 20 (so that cheesed me off) Anyway, we complained and got vouchers for a free meal to go back there. (that time I had a steak that must have come from an oap cow lol) PLEASE COMPLAIN AND ASK FOR COMPENSATION. Brill vid tho, what a disgusting rip off.
We love you to mate !
You got fookin robbed.... massive style 😢😢😢😢😢
Sorry for your loss. Sounds like you'd have had a better Christmas dinner at Witherspoons for a fraction of the price. Must be the snuff keeping covid at bay
It is...medicated snuff does the trick.
Honestly go to the Greedy Duck on Scotchman lane in Morley. You will not be disappointed.
So sad you got ripped off. Well done for calling them out
My Daughter loves it in there.
No Yorkshire puddings!!!!!!!!! ? Id have shit on the table and not paid for the meal either
Meal was pre-paid
Am sorry it ruined your Christmas Simon. For the price you paid it was rubbish and if that was me I’d have complained I mean it didn’t even look like a Christmas table
How many was they 1700 price tag for
22
£80 a head for a glorified wetherspoons xmas dinner 😂😂😂😂seen them coming @muckle8
Had mine in Devon which was still dear at £55 but it was glorious. I crawled out of there!
Cant beat devon and Cornwall we love a place called carbis bay its stunning @muckle8
Me and wife love devon and Cornwall stunning place .carbis bay is our favourite beach @@muckle8
Sorry to hear of the passing of your mum prayers to you and your family. What a rip off demand your money back for that lousy meal
Thank you.
Unfortunately all pull your pants down on Christmas day for lunch it's only money Simon RIP to your mum ❤
TBH you got more then sense , there are pensioners life myself that couldn’t even afford a £4.99 cook from frozen dinner and you wasted nearly £2000 on a meal . Disgusting!!!
OK I haven't watched the video, & in no way am I taking sides here, but I guess it depends on how many people were in your group & if you ordered expensive wine, secondly surely you saw the prices in the Menu?

@@simplywhitby5356 So that's over a £100 each! Yes your right, that's expensive especially annoying if it wasn't up to scratch.
So you ever watched the video and never read the thumb nail which said DRINKS NOT INCUDED. Do you work there.
@@chrisw138 No
Why was there 3 dishes of butter on the table if there was no bread ?
shocking 1760 for that!!!! i would want a full refund
Hey Simon
I'm sorry to hear that you had pants pull well & truly down for your Christmas day family meal.
There is no excuse for a bad meal with poor service added.
I must say that booking a suitable venue for a Christmas day meal
& receiving good food & service is a minefield.
Thinking on, not to add salt to your wounds &
looking at that food & service you received .
I think you would've done much better booking a table at your local spoons.
Me & Mrs k had a great Christmas dinner at home with our son & his girlfriend.
Hey ,Hey Simon
I do hope that hotel
is watching this & that
they're hanging their heads in shame after seeing this
Review.
I don't think they will get many bookings next year
if things don't change
now you have posted their
failings to your subscribers.
Best wishes &

Had xmas lunch here in Thailand 12 pound great value lol
Another one from Batley ending up on the east coast like me 15 years ago 🤔 too many to count.

I'm not putting my hand in there for the wristband, there might be spiders 🕷🕷🕷🕸😱
That looked a really tasty Christmas dinner hope you enjoyed it.
Do you just eat and drink all day long
Mostly
First off Simon, let me say how sad i felt about the death of your mother, always a blow😢That and getting "Mugged " Bloomin'eck did you kick a black cat.Were the staff all wearing masks, carrying bags marked " swag ??" Can't really put in to words,how bad that looked or sounded. As ex- job( retired chef) things can go belly up.😮But did you visit the stables? Cos dem der cowboys didn't ride into town.

Should have dinner at home home is we’re the heart is❤
Should have gone to Toby carvery you can pile your plate high
So that works out at £80 a head if you said 22 people as I recall? Absolutely disgraceful if the food was as you described. I think in these situations it may be a case of the management offering more than the staff can provide....That or just pure and simple profiteering. So your review and this video should be enough to put others off using the place. Happy New Year to you all anyway.....Just add braces to the belt to keep your pants up 😛🤣🤣
Shame shame on the hotel 🇨🇦👎
Simon your description of the prawn cocktail was an exact copy of my mums , she and my sister were also ripped off down south , same old excuses as well we are out of stock ….. really at Christmas .

They may have thought you were migrants being from batley
Hi Simon hope MRS M is feeling better soon. Your Christmas dinner looked disgusting l know it’s the one time of year that you over pay but 1,760 00 was robbery and with out drinks they don’t deserve any customers and even lacking in Christmas decorations looked a boring place that doesn’t care about customers only good thing about this place looks nice on the outside
Just watching this and I’m gob smacked at the cost and what you all got a disgrace I’d call it

Well I think it's a bad mistake going for nosebag on Christmas day your paying far too much money even if you get a good meal which you didn't. I think you would have been better off going out for a nice meal in January/February time when these places are a lot quieter it will cost you a lot less money and you will undoubtedly get a better meal and service then you could buy Mrs M an E scooter to get around on the money you have saved.
Nothing to be sneezed at!!
Disgusting, you would have eaten better in hospital, all that money, you should have complained strait away, probably because of your horrible time lately. I admire your restraint 😮
The video caught my eye because I thought he looked a cool dude and a snappy dresser and you are my friend. So sorry to hear about your sad news and Christmas day farce. We left the UK years ago and stories like this leave me open mouthed at rip off Britain. Occasionally we have to go back to the UK and it never cases to amaze me of the poor to no standard of service and value for money eating out can be. Least you can laugh about it which is more than I would do, hope you get some money back or at least a free meal. If it helps alittle you get a like and a subscribe from me.
Never seen Christmas Dinner that poor and turkey looked like a dry old bird
Whos the lady in red?! ❤❤😊
