Sandside Cafe in Scarborough

Purchased takeaway ice creams and coffees. Took ages to complete the order and expesive as well. Coffees were in small csrdbosrd cups. Never seen a coffee cup so small. Half the size of one you get everywhere else.

Had never been here before but, after a long walk up the coast, I went in with the hope of finding a toilet (I did) and stayed for lunch. I had a delicious ham salad which was piled high on the plate and to my great satisfaction, it had lots of pea shoots in it (as well as a myriad of other things). There was a lot of ham and it was the proper stuff, none of that rubbery muck. It was served with the softest buttered brown bread and coleslaw. The term 'salad' seems too simplistic for the plate of summery loveliness I was served, I can't wait to go back for another. For dessert I had the pear and almond tart (nice) with decaff coffee which tasted good and strong. All in all a very pleasant lunch.

Having visited this delightful cafe a few years ago, my Mum has been dreaming of a return visit to this little gem, for one of their fabulous Prawn sandwiches. Happy to say this week, she did just that, along with the rest of her family. Some of us had crab, others stuck with the prawns, both equally delightful. Not cheap, but worth every penny, and the views are Devine ❤️❤️

We have visited many time over the years. This time just didn’t seem the same. We always have Drinks and cakes but it just wasn’t as good as usual. I am aware costs have gone up but it seemed extortionate for what we had and felt the quality was not the same as before. It is a fab location and will give another try as we walk to Sands End regularly, but hope next time it is better

This cafe has a stunning view overlooking the sea. We went for breakfast. I had scrambled eggs & smoked salmon on toast which was superb. My partner had the full breakfast which he enjoyed APART from the sausages which he thought were cheap and tasted awful. I'm interested to note other such comments on recent reviews. The staff were friendly but I again have noted a recent review commenting on a younger member of staff's attitude, which I can relate to. We had been sat in the open area waiting for our food when it started to rain and we began to move to another table nearby under cover. At this point a young lady came out with our breakfasts. Her manner wasn't particularly friendly and she clearly wasn't happy, commenting 'but your breakfast are here!'

This cafe was a great place for breakfast, how disappointed we were today, ingredients for the full English breakfast were cheap and nasty. Unfortunately we won't be eating there again such a shame. This place must have been taken over as this was a massive difference from last year.

We had a full English breakfast here and I have to say it was the worst breakfast we’ve ever had. The sausages were disgusting, obviously very poor quality, tasteless beans, the black pudding was vile and the filter coffee was bitter. Having read other reviews it seems we’re not the only ones to have experienced this. Hopefully the owners will take this into consideration. I’d rather pay a bit extra for good quality food. A waste of money.

Best breakfast of our little holiday. Enjoyed 2 veggie full Englishes outside overlooking the sea, in the sunshine! Ingredients of breakfast seemed quality and it was well cooked, good portion, we left feeling full but not stuffed. One thing to mention- Veggie full English wasn't even on their menu, it was only from other reviews that I know they did one or we wouldn't have gone here. Would definitely recommend!

Good cafe overlooking the beach and with lovely food. I ordered the fish platter and was very nice for the money, lots of crab prawns and smoked salmon. Friendly staff who let me charge my Electric bike thank you! Reasonably priced white wine also. Perhaps could do with a lick of paint on the furniture and not keen on them serving everything on the brown trays that they have.

Called in the Sandside on a gloomy July morning with wife and daughter. Place was busy but managed to get seating outside facing the sea. Ordered coffees and a couple of Sausage Cobs which came in no time. Service excellent and staff very helpful. Well worth a visit.!

Visited whilst on holiday for last three years. Always excellent food and service. There is a wide range of good quality food available and it’s right by the beach with lovely views.

Every time we visit same great quality food , cheese scones are best ever tried , lovely staff everything cooked fresh and great view out to sea wonderful

We always enjoy this cafe. Friendly service and delicious food. Good choice of menu and reasonably priced. We go each time we cone to Whitby.

Delicious crab sandwich, excellent and friendly service and a fab view. Have visited many times and it’s always this good.

Cute little cafe, tasty breakfast, very pleasant staff and a glorious view. Would definitely return if back in the area

Fab food Crab sandwich baked potato tuna Both large salads and quick service bit expensive but worthit. View were top notch.

Much needed café stop after a walk from Whitby. There was a big selection for the food and it was lovely. Great searing outdoors for the dogs, fast service and will definitely be returning.. again!! Thanks so much.

After a long walk from Whitby we were ready for a coffee and cake. The café is very friendly and also welcomes dogs. The disappointment was the carrot cake, I've had better

Lovely cafe ,we visited with our dogs 5 days in row , lovely friendly staff , brilliant cakes and breakfast sandwiches ,can't wait to return next holiday, thank you.

Called in for Breakfast on Saturday and Sunday on a weekend stay in Sandsend just before New year. Very busy place some brave souls sat outside on the decking. Breakfast was excellent staff very polite. Would highly recommend

I'm not one for leaving reviews but after visiting this place at the weekend then reading some negative reviews on here I felt compelled to do so. Not sure why such negative reviews as we popped in for quick snacks mid Sat afternoon and enjoyed a glass of Merlot with some sublime Carrot cake as well as a coffee whilst sat by the windows looking out towards the sea watching the world go by very enjoyable. As we enjoyed it we went back on the Sun morn for breakfast butties which were very tasty and also catered for dietary requirements. I need to point out on both visits staff were polite and service quick. Prices were very fair too. Both days there was a constant stream of customers so it can't be that bad can it, Will be back for sure.

We tried only the coffee, drank very little of it so unfair to give just one star therefore the other star is for the view which is what will carry this cafe through to another year.

We come to this part of the Yorkshire Coast on a regular basis, and almost always come here for something to eat. They have a great choice of food and loads of gorgeous cakes on offer. What we most like is being able to eat outside under cover. My wife just had beans on toast today, but I had the seafood special which was excellent. Plus, they do a great Mocha.

We needed coffee and a snack after a walk so stopped here. The first thing that hits you is the great views across the sea, particularly from the outdoor area, where dogs are allowed. The menu covers most snacky things, including some gluten free cakes. The coffee was decent and my orange and cranberry scone was delicious.

Great location with excellent Brownies. Staff couldn’t be friendlier and enjoyed a cuddle with our dog. Very clean toilets too.

Tryed the breakfast. The menu didn't say what was included. Bit odd. Nice breakfast but the worst sausages ever. Think they were cheap Richmond ones. Bacon and rest of food very nice. Let down by sausages

Amazing place to sit and look out to sea , cheese scones special is just delicious , great coffee , spotless toilets and lovely pleasant staff , what more could you want ?

Had Coffee and cheese scone’s always great as all the food is breakfast or lunch. Staff are always helpful and very pleasant.

Breakfast was awful, snotty egg, warm beans, bacon can’t describe and sausage that neither our dog nor the dog on the next table would eat, so we ate the toast and enjoyed the only positive the view over the beach

A brilliant spot for a coffee & cake, and more if you are hungry. Always busy, but with great friendly service. Will keep coming back 👍

Very nice cafe with good food and great views. Crab sandwiches and Cakes are a must! Only downside is the constant queue!

Lovely cafe, clean and friendly and good quality food. Was very busy but service was still quick. Would recommend.

Good place for a good breakfast, very quick service, clean and friendly staff. The menu choice was good, offering a full English breakfast.

We love a crab sandwich and these are definitely the best we have had. Even better than the ones we had in Staithes last week. Fresh bread, loads of crab and a lovely side salad and crisps. A great little cafe. We had an early...

Lovely food.Friendly staff nothing too much trouble. great location. Looking out to sea good buzz about the place. Ideal for families and dogs welcome to on the decking. All in all tip top

Hoorah - a full English @ last. In my last post about the caff I had a rant about them not providing a Full English despite having all the ingredeients. Well now they do - & very nice it was too!

What a cracking little café, The breakfast at £9.95 including tea or coffee was great. Quality produce, not cheap and nasty sausages or bacon. Well worth a try.

The bacon butty was 10/10 filled with well cooked bacon but the filter coffee was 2/10 and tasted like mildly flavoured hot water.

Understand this has got new owners and it's certainly improved. We had cappuccino, latte and pot of tea accompanied by fruit scone, cheese scone and school cake. All were really good. The coffees were hot, great quality and well presented, tea the same. The cakes...

Great little cafe perched up above this beautiful beach. Shielded by the glass keeps you warmer but we visited on a gorgeous sunny day. Good service and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend

The crab sandwich was brilliant, as usual, but oh dear, oh dear what is wrong with the coffee? We ordered regular decaffeinated coffees which were very small, very weak and lacking in taste for the extortionate price of £3.20. This needs to be improved.

Nice area good views. Not too keen on standing in a very long queue just for coffee. So decided to make it worth the wait and ordered 2 items, Carrot cake and a fruit scone. HOWEVER!! The carrot cake was extremely good. The fruit scone...

First visit since Sandside changed hands and I really hoped it would be as good. I was not disappointed, it was just as good. Also the service was kind, I was on my own with my dog and they let me bring the dog in...

We came here for lunch. I ordered a sandwich, which was nice but the cheese was cut in 1cm slabs so it was really hard going trying to eat it. Not sure what they were thinking when they made it. Nice views over the beach.

My husband and I enjoyed a delicious late Monday morning breakfast at Sandsend Cafe. It’s a tradition for us, we walk there & back on the beach from Whitby. Today my husband had the Full English breakfast with brown toast and I had scrambled eggs...

Wonderful late lunch - freshly produced food and locally sourced crab. Wonderful staff and great sea views. Can't wait to return!

Bezzie mates Sharon & Kev, the child bride and myself walked from Whitby to Sandsend. We arrived in Sandsend and reached Sandsend cafe a bustling little eatery with wonderful sea views. It is obviously very popular we found a table for 4 and then ordered...

We sat outside in a seated area with a table tea and coffee served in plastic cups which we had to queue up outside for , cakes were half the size they were 18 months ago not a very good way to get customers back , the toilet was closed no reason given told to use the public toilet 200 m up the road which were filthy , we have been going to this cafe for over 30 years but we will not be going again , lovely little cafe in the old part of Whitby called Marie Antoinette's tea and coffee comes in a decent sized cup tea served in a tea pot and it is best cup of coffee i have ever tasted , and the cakes are twice the size and half the price of Sandside Cafe , and also their toilet is open .

Called here on the second day of re-opening and they had a full menu available with lovely fresh local crab. They were very welcoming and we loved every minute of our visit.

Staying in Whitby, so made a couple of lunchtime visits here this week and as always, not disappointed. Love sitting outside and enjoying the views of of the sea whilst enjoying a lovely light snack. Had a marinated fish taco today, lovely. Also took home some coffee and walnut cake. My wife enjoyed her tuna sandwiches and scone.

Stopped by as we always do after a lovely visit to Sandsend. Relaxed with a hot coffee in the outdoor seating area and a slice of wonderful orange cake for me and a delicious lemon drizzle for my partner. The cakes are generally the highlight of the visit and we certainly make a beeline for this place! Great service as always and we will be back again in a few months no doubt. Thanks guys!

Excellent bacon sandwich (£3.30), average latte (£2.75), dry & tasteless cakes (Coffee & Walnut, Lemon Drizzle, 2.50). Not as good as I remember.

Nice cafe with sheltered outdoor seating, decent cafe food with lovely outlook over Sandsend beach. Worth the visit.

A good location in Sandsend and set up nicely with outside seating. Not too sure about once you have found a table to then go back outside to queue up at a hatch to place your order.The food was simple okay and had a bacon and sausage sandwich together with a cheese and tomato toastie.

Called in for a coffee as it was chilly and ended up having lunch. Lovely cafe with indoor and outdoor seating areas, very clean and friendly staff. We nad sandwiches which were freshly made and coffee we. All very good, highly recommend ed.

Great views over Sandsend beach and a good snack/lunch menu. Can sit outside or undercover. Visited during half term holiday. Dog friendly. Safe COVID arrangements in place. Staff helpful.

We stopped here for a well deserved cup of tea after a bracing walk down the beach from Whitby. The covid instructions were a little confusing, give your details, sit down and then mask up and go and order from the side of the cafe, but I think they've done the best that they can - these things take time to bed in. View was superb and they had a choice of teas which was lovely.

This has always been our go-to cafe when in the area. A great spot with breathtaking views and quality offerings (the crab sandwich and the yummy cakes being firm favourites). Yes, it is a different experience at present with a much reduced menu and lack of quality cutlery and crockery. Yes, you need to use the public toilets, so the one in the cafe can be kept clean and safe for staff. And yes, you have to place your order yourself, at the outside hatch but from what I’ve seen this week, they are doing a sterling job under such difficult circumstances. They need your support and co-operation not your criticism. Well done guys, keep up the good work!

Have stopped here many times over recent years and this cafe is in a fantastic location offering good value food and coffee. Would recommend this as a must when visiting this part of the coast,

Oh dear, I had been here a few times pre-Covid and it was great. Now, even taking into consideration the mandatory sanitising and social distancing etc, it’s extremely poor.You come into the outside seating area, are greeted and seated. Then, even though there is a greeter and waiting staff, you have to note your table number, put your mask on, get up, go out of the cafe to a window on the roadside, order food, collect drinks in takeaway cups, go back into the cafe, sit down, remove mask and a few minutes later your food is thrown at you in polystyrene containers. At breakfast, if you are vegetarian you may as well forget it. No toast, no tea cakes, no croissants or pastries - the veggie with me was offered a scone! A toasted cheese and pickle sandwich was ordered (I know, not breakfast but hunger dictates) which, when it arrived, wasn’t fit for a dog (see photo) and it was left untouched on the table. Needs a re-think, can do much better.

Love this place with its dog friendly outside space with views back towards whitby and dark of to sea. Large ships loom on the horizon full of freight moving g to Docks higher up the coast.Limited menu on at the moment so staff can cope with the extra demands, but still a place to rest weary legs!No toilets at the moment so public ones are only a minute up the road.

Popped in for late lunch after a walk along the cliffs.... We had the specials Whitby crab and a prawn sandwich very nice.... Cafe was very well organised and kept very clean...

Really surprised the only cafe I have come across that is not providing toilet facilities due to covid and I have been in quite a few. Public ones up the road which aren't very nice.

It was a cold wet day when we came here. It was a bit confusing at first with people queuing in 2 places but the waitress explained all when we got to the front of the queue. We were allocated a table then one of us joined the other queue to order food and drinks. It all worked out though and they were quick to serve us. Lovely cup of tea and big sandwich with salad and crisps. We were outside but under cover and very grateful for somewhere to have a rest. Would definitely recommend this cafe and would go back again.

We had lunch at Sandside and were impressed by the care they have taken to ensure the safety of customers and staff. The food was lovely, as usual. Obviously the menu is limited from the normal wide range but there is a good choice. They do lovely ice-cream too. People need have no fears about going there. I would recommend it.

Our family of four liked this cafe so much we went there 3 times. Well planned queuing and seating systems (outdoor and under cover) and efficient cleaning after each customer, so customers are protected as much as possible. The staff on each visit were very good and managed customer service with a polite and informative approach. We were informed each time the toilets were closed and were directed accordingly.The menu was straightforward with breakfast sandwiches and toasties available, along with the delicious crab sandwiches. We'd highly recommend the crab sandwiches as there's plenty of crab meat and the bread is great quality, presented well with side salad in a card box. It was good to have a range of tray bakes and cakes - the mars bar crunch and the rocky road are worth sampling.Drinks were as expected, the deluxe hot chocolate was excellent and it was nice to have bovril for a change! If you are in Sandsend and have the time to stop and watch the waves, it is worth stopping here for a drink - at least!We'll be back next time we are in Sandsend - thank you

Great delux ghost chocolate, blustery day for August, but sat inside for a breakfast cob and a hot chocolate, was lovely sat in a booth. The staff were fab. Strict with Covid but that’s a good thing ey!

Crab sandwich !!! So much more than it sounds. generous crab filling, good brown bread. If Heneiken made sandwiches this is what they would be like.Effective Covid-19 precautions and a young waitress working like an absolute demon. Whatever you pay her she's worth double (no I'm not related to her)

We visit this cafe every year on our seaside holiday to Whitby, walking from there to Sandsend and back. This time, myself, partner and dog queued to get in. We were directed to a table outside because we had a dog. The young waitress doing the signing in said in these exact words "If you want to use the toilet that's absolutely fine, but please ask a member of staff first as we will check that there is no-one else in there". Absolutely fine, we thought. As we were finishing our lunch, I asked a passing waitress (different to the one from earlier) if I could use the toilet please, but she said the toilets were not open today. I had noticed a sign up saying this too, but as the lady who let us in mentioned that they were okay to use, I was rather confused, so explained this. The waitress then went off to check and came back out with the manageress who said "is there a problem?" (I was a bit taken aback by this approach as I never asked for the manager and didn't have a 'problem' really, I just needed the toilet.) I then explained myself for the third time, as a paying customer, about what I was told on the way in about the toilet situation.The manageress said the toilets were only for customers sat inside due to Covid. What an absolutely ridiculous rule! There was no way we could have sat inside with the dog and this was NOT mentioned on our way in by the young waitress doing the signing in. This cafe obviously just want to get you in and get your money, but won't allow more than half of their customers to use the facilities. How can this place segregate those sat outside from those inside? There were elderly people, other dog walkers and children sat outside who I felt sorry for, should they ask to use them. We also noticed, that whilst queueing to get a table, we noticed a father approach the young waitress doing the signing in with his two teenage children. This was before we had gone in so we weren't paying close attention. However, after a couple ofminutes, his teenage daughter then walked inside as he said 'thank you so much' to the waitress. It was clear she had gone in to use the toilets, as she returned within 5 minutes. Obviously, when this point was argued, the manageress denied this, even though we saw it and so did the couple behind us. It seems to be one rule for some and one rule for another here.So, it had gone from the first waitress saying the toilets were open, to the 2nd waitress who said they weren't open, to the manageress who said they were open but to customers sitting inside only! After 7 years of visiting this cafe on our seaside holidays, we will NOT be returning, even when things go back to normal. Extremely poor customer service and a completely ludicrous rule for those having to eat outside. Only giving 1 star as I can't give 0!

Visited here for lunch. Excellent location with great views of the sea and beach. Staff friendly and efficient. Covid rules in place. Food, toastie and pannini was good. We would definitely eat here again.

I had an amazing experience at sanside cafe! I was served by 2 lovely girls at the window on Saturday who told me they were the owners granddaughters, they both had lovely beaming smiles that brightened up my trip. I sat in the outside seating area and watched the sea as I ate my amazing chocolate brownie. Definitely will be coming back soon!

Been here before and that's why we chose to eat here but this time we were disappointed, the food is fine but the queuing system was unorganised and quite frankly bonkers! So there was one queue for both takeaway and eat in there was nothing to say otherwise, once we got to the hatch we were told to then go to the cafe entrance where we were met by a member of staff who told us to find a table,if available, then once seated a member of your family then had to go back outside and join the takeaway queue again to place an order, to be fair the waiting on staff so how annoyed we were so took our order at the table but afterwards we decided to all have a cake so that meant having to go back outside and join the takeaway queue then go back inside!! Just didn't make sense,luckily the queue wasnt too long at this point ! What should have been a relaxing eating experience turned out to be a stressful one.

We called in here last week following our visit to Runswick Bay and we had the most delicious tuna sandwich ever, so fresh and tasty! It also came with salad and crisps in a box it was so nice to chill out and relax at this wonderful cafe. The staff were so nice and friendly too. Definitely worth a visit!

Breakfast was fantastic, staff faultless, Cannot wait to return. It was a shame we only discovered this on our last day.

Who could ask for more? ! Also lovely ice cream - tried the jaffa cake one this week, delicious! Have been coming here for years and whilst it isn't cheap, the quality is excellent.

We visited Sands end on the beach,. Then called in to this amazing cafe!! Right on the beach, overlooking the sea. Ordered our drinks from the counter, sat down, our food was brought to our table, perfect!! This cafe has it all, it is just the best. Anyone who thinks differently, let's see you open your own cafe, then I will call in and give you a review!!!! This cafe is extremely good! I tell everyone.

Love this cafe - lovely view and have absolutely mastered the safety of single use cups and sustainability😘

It was such a treat to be able to go out and have a gorgeous fresh crab sandwich and almost believe Things were normal. Thank you .

Date of visit: 5th July 2020Having visited this cafe many times over the years this was unfortunately our most disappointing visit. The main issue was that this is no longer a cafe but is now a take away so there are no toilet facilities available or indoor seating and it is a basic take away menu not the previous menu we had enjoyed. I was also concerned at the level of hygiene practiced during our visit. To start off there was a 10 minute queue to get a table and before you can enter Track & Trace information is collected - Name, Phone Number, Party size, One household or multiple - then you are allocated a table. Luckily the lady on the door instructed the cleaner to wipe our table after the previous guests have left otherwise he might not have cleaned it! The same lady was also being blown away by her visor by the gusty winds we had and it kept blowing into her face! Poor thing. After that there was a 10 minute queue to order food and drinks at the take away hatch - opened to the public, not just seating customers - where you pay for your order, give a table number and collect your drinks. The prices on the - much reduced menu - were still restaurant prices though, not take away prices! 10 minutes later, food was delivered to our table with no napkins, no plates, no condiments and no cutlery. We were basically delivered a take away to our table. Before eating we wanted to wash our hands - now more than ever - and it was disappointing that the hand washing facilities had been reduced. After spending a morning on the beach with a dog, some running water and some soap would have been welcome and, I think, is a basic expectation in most UK holiday destinations in 2020 (we’re not in 1920!). There was hand sanitiser available at the entrance to the table area which is great for bacteria but not for washing. This was concerning and made me question the level of hygiene which the staff themselves practice if they don’t expect visitors to wash their hands! My final thoughts are that we won’t be visiting again until the hygiene situation improves. Furthermore, a couple in our party were of the age where visiting the toilet can be a frequent need so this venue is no longer suitable, unfortunately. There was a helpful sign at the door saying nearest toilets 200m away though - the public toilets. Next time we will probably visit the beach at Sandsend then return to Whitby to go to a cafe there. Lastly, if this business we to succeed (for customers and economically) as only a take-away then surely it would have done so before, why they are taking a gamble now seems risky to me but I’m sure there must be a good reason behind it. I wish them all the best and hope they make it through to the other side as we have enjoyed many visits here the past few decades.

Just wanted a lovely coffee, Called for a takeaway at the hatch. Lovely coffees, cheerful welcome and great service. Perfect... and especially welcome after a 9mile walk and disappointing fish and chips in Whitby . Wish we’d tried the cakes We’ll be back for more at Sandside ☀️

Fantastic cafe both inside and great to eat outdoors when the weathers fine. We sat outside March 2020 and it was beautiful. Great food, cakes, wine, coffee and ice cream. A lovely place to pass away an hour while viewing the beach.

Probably the eatery with the best views in Sandsend.We only stopped in for a çuppa on a sunny but windy day.The log cabin effect chalet disguise hides a really cosy place with friendly and accommodating staff serving good honest and freshly prepared food.Some of the cakes looked amazing.It also hides some amazing views of the beach.Really stands out from the local competition.

Busy but ice cream was needed by kids to help with walk back to Whitby! Lovely place next to the sea.

I have been here today for breakfast and it is well worth a visit. The breakfast was served promptly and it was amazing. The views were lovely sitting outside, we will definitely come again

I never thought about cheese ham and pineapple in a toastie before, oh my goodness it was delicious and came with a fantastic garnish. I had the most amazing view whilst having my lunch. Only thing is that the staff could smile a little more. Will be back.

Charging extra for hot milk with a coffee? This must be the only "cafe" in the English speaking world that has a license to print money! Never, ever again.

Attended for late lunch by the sea. Excellent food. Especially good crab sandwichs in fact the best.

A quick stop on our walk for a coffee and escape from the cold winds of storm Dennis didn’t disappoint. Toasted tea cake, for me but bread and butter pudding with custard for my friend!! The coffees were first rate and the glass panelled outdoor seating keeping out the cold wind a welcome boon. Don’t walk on past, stop and enjoy!

Always busy. Wide variety of food and drinks. Cakes, sandwiches and more substantial snacks. Crab sandwiches if you’re lucky. Indoor and outdoor seating. Perfect for dog owners as some of the outdoor seating is sheltered and under cover. Right on the beach.

Fresh bread, fresh whitby crab makes for the best crab sandwiches, followed by delicious rocky road. Highly recommend after a stroll on the beach!

Stopped for a quick bite to eat ,all food and drinks nice maybe a bit dearer than most maybe paying more for location.clean and tidy all pleasant staff all young age on a Saturday.plenty of seating inside and out and one toilet which when full is a long wait.fab views as we sat inside as a windy day.maybe try the other one near bridge next time.

This cafe faces the beach and has a great sea view. The fresh whitby crab sandwich was delicious. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, really cheerful. Its a lovely place.
