    Enjoying a Bendigo break with my Mum and teen daughter, we decided on brunch at Whitby on Saturday. The setting on the edge of the lake was beautiful, and an added bonus was the chill DJ set on the deck - loved it! The warm welcome we received upon arrival was noted, however the over-exuberant friendliness from every staff member (particularly our waiter) ended up coming across as staged. There is such a thing as too much enthusiasm! Our brunch was delicious, and we loved being out on the deck with the background tunes, but the OTT smiley staff was unfortunately a dampener on our experience. A little less gushy service would have made it the perfect brunch - just a little heads-up for whoever trains the wait staff :)

    Lunch at Whitby was a lovely experience. We sat outside along the glass windows and I was so happy that the seats both faced the same way with an amazing view of Lake Weerona. The orange juice and spiced chai were delightful. The Atlantic salmon and the Whitby benedict were amazing. The benedict was one of the best I've ever had. 10/10. Service was amazing, all the staff were bubbly and friendly. Will definitely be heading back again!

    Really very sad that they have changed the name from Boardwalk to Whitby - however the food was really beautiful!

    We are their newest regulars! It was a milestone birthday for my Mum and we couldn’t fault the day. Mum had a great time, the food and it’s presentation was perfect, and the service was the best. Thank you Whitby’s!

    Friendly staff, quick service, beautiful food. What more can I say . It would be great to get a steak knife to cut the sourdough bread ( it's the same anywhere that has sourdough) and an offer of water for the table . But they are minor things . Thank you guys for a excellent experience.

    Location is lovely. Food is overpriced and both our meals were cold: cold poached eggs and cold toast. Person showing us to our table was patronising. Will not return.
