As well as the [[Abbey]] and the [[Church]], East Cliff contains many pubs and eateries aimed at tourists. Whitby fish and chips is a popular meal with visitors and many of the pubs (as well as [[chip shop]]s) will serve this dish. East Cliff is also home to the smokehouses that produce the local Whitby "kipper", a smoked herring often served as breakfast. The "Duke of York" pub overlooks the [[harbour]] and is perhaps the most popular with visitors and locals due to the beautiful views out to sea. Many of the pubs serve "Black Dog" beer, a local [[Real ale]] named after the Dracula legend and brewed in the town.
