The change was granted by licensing officers following a public consultation period.
Called "the Jet Black Jewel" in reference to the gemstone made famous in Whitby, the building has nine rooms over three floors and the ground floor operates as a café/bar serving local drinks and produce.
Scarborough Council sold the four-storey building to the couple in 2018 after being unable to secure a long-term tenant to take over the property.
