The Old Scalby Mills, Scarborough

Just visited this pub, and whilst I found the views beautiful, thats where it ended. The pub is disgracfully dirty. I have never used pub toilets before where I have had to hold my breath. They were discusting. As I looked around the lounge was in the same filthy state. Tables were filthy, the smell appalling and a big black greasy stain that emerged from the bar accross the lounge carpet. The staff - two young girls, whilst polite enough were clueless. No ice available (for the second night I was told) and serving people food with their hair all ov er the place. Their was a German family who were there and I honestly felt quite ashamed. I quietly hoped they didnt think this a typical English - Yorkshire Pub. Sorry to rant on but I feel it such a shame to see such potential in a place sliding to such low levels. I appreciate the Pub industry has been 'hit hard' over recent years, but this was a lack of basic hygene and cleanliness which costs a bit of hot water, soap and elbow grease and no more.
