To le cheffie - WET!

I'm with local and real local on this one. we don't want shit beer and shit fast foods. I know that McDonalds applied to open in town and Wetherspoons are constantly trying to get in. Thankfully SBC turned down McD's (one of the rare good things that SBC have done) and the owners of The Shambles have snubbed the advances of Wetherspoons on more than one occasion as far as I'm aware. Thank God for Whitby and it's traditions. As was previously said, if you don't like it then don't come. It will survive without the odd moaner. You can always slum it in Redcar of course!
