Sandside Bar in Scarborough

£2.60 for one very small scoop of ice cream that looked completely lost in the tub.......absolute rip off. No wonder the lady serving asked me if I wanted w scoops for £4.50 (I think). Everywhere else you go to they put a bit more in the tub or even fill it especially because you aren't having the cone but not here. Certainly not value for money.

This place looks lovely from the outside, until you enter to very rude uninviting staff! So miserable and have no interest!!! My partner was served the wrong milkshake!!!, the lady with brown hair really didn’t want to serve him, hence why he was given the wrong drink! I would never return here, when visiting Whitby again! Small businesses like this should be service with a smile to keep their businesses going and to keep their customers happy, not here I’m afraid!!! I do always try to be fair when right reviews!!! Don’t waste your money here!!! Better places deserve the customer!!! My caramel milkshake was nice, my partner asked for vanilla, NOT BANANA!!!

I popped in here one Saturday with two friends. The cafe is small so it is difficult to move around when full. We managed to find a table and I was rudely told I needed to order at the counter. I stood waiting to be served for a good 5 mins. The woman serving finally arrived and took my order. There was no pleasantry or chat. The prices for the tea and coffee were okay but the price for the Victoria sponge was expensive at over £3, especially given it was such a small slice. We left a bit disappointed and will neither return nor recommend.

Cute corner location decked in pastel colours. Great location for people watching or a break whilst shopping. There are a couple of tables inside and one outside. Good selection of drinks and ice creams including vegan options. Friendly and helpful staff. Reasonable prices.

It's so rare to find someone who serves vegan ice cream. When you're dairy intolerant, finding seaside treats can be a challenge. Loved the ice cream, thank you

Even though there was some light rain on a cool November day we sampled their ice cream, yummy chocolate and lemon flavours, very much recommended.

Great choice of ice cream flavours and the traditional 99 with a flake for £2. Selection of cakes and drinks available too. Friendly staff would return on our next trip. Located just at the bottom of the 199 steps you can't miss it on the corner,

Waited over 15 minutes for a wafle ,wasn’t busy so no excuses when asked where it was the rude And abrupt lady behind the counter Said it takes time to make the mixture, when clearly I saw her colleague take a pre made one out of a packet, when it finally arrived it was burnt on the bottom, so no I wouldn’t recommend waffles but the ice looked delicious.

The best sandwich, cake and coffee shop in Whitby. Great host who cares about its customers, friendly and welcoming. Deffo will have to return

i had the chocolate nut, was a good size and prepared swiftly. nice clean place with friendly staff.

a small little place a the bottom of the 199 steps and they serve great coke floats. Staff are friendly

Staying in Whitby we saw quite a few people with lemon top ice cream corners. We saw Sandside Bar had a large advert for them. Reasonable price and a great looking clean cafe. Good size whippy with lemon sorbet addition. Great service and ice cream

Tiny cafe with icecream takeaway window. Coffee is really good. Icecream comes in lots of flavours and is very tasty and good value. Icecream sundaes are amazing!

Whenever I’m in Whitby I have to stop here. This place is so cute and cosy with such lovely nautical themed decorations. I would highly recommend the hot chocolate. It’s the best I’ve ever tasted.

It may only be small but the snacks and refreshments are as good as any other. Prices for us was normal for what we had. Sat inside as dogs are welcome

Nice food but cost just over £21 for 3 toasties 1 coffee that was cold 1 tea 1 coke bottle (500ml) quick service though just a bit pricey

Popped in on the way back from the abbey before heading down to Jet hunt on the beach. Was a nice bacon roll with a toasted bun, and the coffee was really tasty. Nice little cafe and they do great ice cream cones from the hatch on the street. :)

Looking around whitby for a dog friendly cafe stumbled on this one. Made very welcome food and service spot on Chicken piri piri sandwich well recommended side salad good prices very competitive will go back next time we in Whitby.

This is a great little spot to treat yourself to a coffee and ice cream after a walk up to abbey! It’s tiny but bright, clean and served a lovely sundae!!! Look forward to visiting again both Whitby and this little cafe!!

Called here today for drinks and sat outside.

Me and my family happened upon this wonderful little place that serves really tasty ice cream, milkshakes and hot drinks. The staff were so super friendly and nothing was too much for them to help with. We enjoyed this place it deserves to be visited by many

On a recent week in Whitby visited here a couple of times for great ice creams. Generous serving from cheerie staff. There are loads of options for ice cream in Whitby. This is a good one.

Such great selection of ice cream and cakes. Really friendly staff prices very reasonable we had ice creams out side sat on a picnic bench they have for customers to enjoy the sunshine on the way to the Abbey

Just called in for a sandwich, ham cheese mustard relish, very nice available on brown or white. My wife had a slice of lovely sponge cake, very light with blackcurrant filling. Very clean airy cafe, with a nice proprietor and keen young staff, very pleasant.

Best Ice cream going! We're always happy to come back, seating area is quite small but it does get very busy and it isn't so bad to stand and watch the bustle go by.

We visited for a drink, scone and Icecream . The scone tasted ok but it just kept falling in bits which was very annoying . The Icecream was average. If we wanted a quick coffee we would visit again .

Sólo ofrecen roll tocino re servicio de desayuno. Pregunté si era posible que los huevos me dijeron que no. Pedimos una salchicha al perro - sólo puede tener que mirar la tabla y salchichas no allí de cualquier forma. Después me preguntó también al cliente por un bocadillo de salchichas y algo más, pero me dijeron que la misma respuesta stock 'no solo que mirar el '

Después de ser enormemente decepcionada de no poder comer al menos una gloria knickerbocker en noviembre de 2016 - debido a un personal de vacaciones (qué desconsiderado! ! ) estábamos deseando LA MEJOR KBG en el universo. . Sin embargo lo que no habían previsto era que la máquina heladera en la máquina no estaba en debido a que fuera de temporada. . Así ver foto-top de limón fue sustituido por el típico máquina heladera helados. . Pero no el mismo. . . No puedo esperar hasta la próxima vez espero que el status quo será restaurado - aún así disfrutamos. . .

Just had coffee and toasted tea cakes for breakfast as didn't fancy a full English served with a smile, cafe very clean, warm and comfortable would definitely visit again

Try the cream teas home made scones and cakes are delicious. Often pop in for a cosy chat with the friendly staff and the coffee and cakes are to die for.

I had never heard of lemon top ice creams until this visit to Yorkshire - you learn something new!... and this cafe does a very nice one. Very refreshing. It's a small, colourful place just near the corner before you go up the 199 Steps (or on the left as you turn the corner from the Steps on the way down). You can go inside for food and drink but they have a small serving hatch for the ice creams.Service was friendly and fast, despite a hot summer's day.Well worth checking out as you explore the shops on your to or from the Abbey or St Mary's Church on the headland above.

I have travelled a long way for one of these knickerbocker glory's - you will see my ID photo is of two of them. They are absolutely delicious and I only hope I can fit in the time to eat two next visit. Thank you for the extra cherry too xx

Found near to the bottom of the steps up to the abbey this small cafe offers some really lovely creamy ice creams and are priced to sell @ £1.50 to £1.80 which is really decent and a pocket saver when your paying for 4. Give it a shot.

You would expect this little café to be on the beach, because of its name, but also because of its decor. Pale shades of blue, simple beachfront style, string of triangular flags, and ice creams prominently for sale. Unfortunately, no sand in sight! However they do provide remarkable vegetable soup with a hot roll besides. Very satisfying. Also hot and cold drinks and nice looking cakes. You can find it near the ocean end of Church Street.

Absolutely best proper back bacon sandwich and cup of tea in the world!!! Owner is lovely too.Gonna have the crab sandwich next time.

This is a really fantastic ice cream parlour. It's quite small inside but they do allow dogs in! The ice cream is fantastic and good value. Try the caramel honeycomb; it won't disappoint!

this is by far the best establishment serving knickerbocker glories in the entire universe - and I have tried a lot of different ones now in search of one that is better. but just not found any better than the sandside bar. My profile photo is of one of them and I will post another in a moment. True perfection - vanilla and strawberry real dairy ice cream - lots of sauce and proper tinned fruit cocktail. all topped off with glorious whipped ice cream and cocktail cherry and wafers! A harmonious concoction of loveliness and one I am willing to travel nearly 280 miles (one way) to experience. sheer bliss

Stopped after a long beach walk. Fresh crab sandwiches were way too big to eat on your own - I recommend one between two.

Popped in for a SUPER YUM Coffee and Walnut cake and special hot chocolate (with cream and marshmallows!!!) - BRILLIANT service from the owner - totally recommend this place!

Fantastic find on a chilly day - popped in for a coffee and cake - ended up with and gorgeous coffee and walnut cake AND special hot chocolate (complete with marshmallows!) ... excellent service and will DEFINITELY be heading back there again ... actually the bacon sandwiches were really popular too so will want to try one of those next time too :-) ... totally recommend this place.

Often pop in for a bacon bun or sandwich get a take a way coffee and sit on the end of the near by pier and watch the world go by, lovely.

We just wanted a quick snack and called in to this small cafe. It was clean with colourful, fresh paintwork. Orders are placed at the counter, food is then brought to your table. I had coffee and cake, my husband had a coke and a bacon roll. The bacon roll was listed as freshly made and it was made to order. The cafe also serves sandwiches and ice creams, snacks are also sold from a hatch onto the street, and there are a couple of tables outside. It is just the place to call in when you don't want to have a full meal or sit and wait for table service.

It was very quite when we went in for a cup of tea and we felt we might have been interrupting the staff's other activities. There was little by way on comforts although the menu walls were very clear what was available if we had dared go beyond a cup of tea.

I recently nipped in here when the heavens opened for a quick relief from the terrible downpour! It is a very small and quite cramped place, so we had to wait around for a table but I suppose that can't be helped, so I wouldn't recommend it for people with younger children! The decor of the place was very cute, bright and inviting and the staff were very pleasant and on hand to help! They seemed like they enjoyed their job which is key to a functioning work place. The actual coffee I ordered was averagely nice (the actual brand was rijo if that helps?) and came very quickly to my delight - I don't like to wait around! Plus it was a fairly cheap price which is what I like to see. I think I'd definitely come in again if I needed somewhere quick, but I wouldn't make the extra journey to come here!
