Sanctuary Bar Scarborough

You'll find Sanctuary tucked away on St Nicholas Street, just back from the seafront bustle, and that's precisely the point. It's the sort of bar that doesn't need to shout about itself—regulars know where it is, and they keep coming back for uncomplicated drinking and actual craft cocktails that won't bankrupt you. The atmosphere is genuinely welcoming without any pretension; conversation flows easily, and you're just as comfortable nursing a single drink as you are settling in for the evening. It's become something of a staple for anyone in Scarborough who wants proper spirits done right, without the faffing about you'd get elsewhere.
