Trillo's of Whitby in Scarborough

Approaching the window, you will enjoy the most exquisite and flavoursome of all ice creams. I have never tasted such a treat as good as this (and my vampyric palette is limited mostly to A+positive and similar claret beverages), coupled with the most personal and friendly service you will ever receive. Mr Trillo and his wonderful associates welcome all with open arms (especially those of a Gothic and Vampyric disposition). There are a number of locations and vehicles to enjoy the delights of Trillo's ice cream, so fear not, you are never far away from delight. My favourite being when the ice cream Land Rover parks very close to my crypt outside Whitby Abbey. Spectacular views will reward the senses, combined with ice-cream giving you a much needed treat for climbing the 199 steps. Mr Trillo, as always, I thank you for your wonderful service to the townsfolk, visitors and creatures of the night of wonderful Whitby. I shall see you soon...

Lovely ice cream and brilliant custome service

Delicioso helado suave comprado al vendedor por el muelle en Whitby. Inmediatamente robado por una manada de seis gaviotas para diversión de todos. Gracias al vendedor por llamarme para reemplazarlo. Espero que todos los que miran hayan ido y comprado uno para probar suerte con las gaviotas😁 el segundo estuvo delicioso!

I bought the Gothic "liquorice and blackcurrant" icecream. There was only a very small amount of actual Liquorice sauce in it. It was pink with dark brown streaks. It tasted OK but decidedly average. I was expecting a black exotic gelato but was a wishy washy raspberry ripple type Icecream. It was also the most expensive flavour too. It was OK but not moreish in the slightest. Of course I prefer it to be naturally coloured and not radioactive red but I was Fairly Disappointed!

Lovely ice cream on the top of the cliff.. An abundance of flavours so went for the Whitby Gothic which was a good mixture of blackcurrant and liquorice. Only gripe would be for a large double scoop expected a larger portion not very generous at all ..

Found at several locations, we tried the one by the pier. The amaretto cherry flavour was our favourite. Friendly and helpful service.

Nice staff, very quick with doing up yr order and a good range of stock.

We went to the cabin on the west pier and asked if they had the infamous jet ice cream because it wasn't advertised or on display. They did and It came with a black cone with gold sprinkles around it and was a lovely vanilla taste. However it does get everywhere and stains everything. Not sure if it comes out of clothing yet but it does wipe off faces easily enough if you ask for serviettes. I find it strange that they don't make this their advertising star because it could be a real draw for crowds as you can't get it anywhere else.

Fantastic Service from Tim at Trillo's for delivering a much wanted Tiramisu to an elderly relative of mine currently in Whitby Community Hospital. It made her day! thank you so much for being so prompt with the delivery and so caring to help me make her smile :)

We brought my in laws here to try the Whitby Gothic ice cream and they were not disappointed. Lovely liquorice and blackcurrant taste, soft and creamy, they were converted instantly to this new flavour. A lovely ice cream at reasonable price.

I had a lovely time chatting to Neil and the Dracula Blood made the scoops delightful!

We had two visits to the cie cream van. Toffie was the best and the strawberry was also great. Would recomend.

After a long walk was ready for an icecream but was disappointed as the cabin on West Cliff was shut then went to icecream van near Capt Cook statue. Gentleman was very helpful as his medium would be my large size however whenI sat down at the bench I was surprised at the lack of vanilla flavour

I have always wanted to visit it Whitby and so me and partner went for the day.I was desperate to try the black ice cream but with not being familiar with the place I messaged Trillos. They were super prompt with their reply and so helpful.What can I say about the black ice cream? It came in a beautiful black and gold come. The ice cream was literally jet black. Without a doubt it is probably the nicest vanilla ice cream I have ever eaten. It turned my red lipstick black!I got the soft serve black ice cream near the whale bones and sat on the harbour to enjoy it. Trillos is a must visit.

The woman serving the icecream was so miserable. Eventually said thank you. The raspberry and cream tasted more like sorbet. No flavour and icey.

Tried the cider toffee ice cream which was gorgeous. Unfortunately our Trillo's experience was dampened by the miserable woman who served us. I've seen a happier smile on a baboons backside! Surely it's not that difficult to find appropriate staff in Whitby Mr Trillo?

Stopped here to sample the ice cream after a friend recommended it to me. We were not disappointed... Generous portion and lovely flavours: mint choc chip for my husband with lots of choc chip and Whitby Gothic for me (blackcurrant and liquorice). Very nice and lovely and creamy.

Trillos is one of the best places to visit for an ice cream when in Whitby. I recently opted for a jet black whippy ice cream. It looked really good and even came in a jet black cone. It was tasty however beware - my face, teeth, tongue, fingers etc. were covered in black ice cream dye. Luckily, I was out with a 5 year old and baby wipes were on hand! It was a fun novelty but I will not be having one again. I will be opting for a usual ice cream next time.

Stopped off at the ice cream van at the stop of the pier near the Whale bones. On the menu it said "whitby goth ice cream" (or something similar) and I asked for one, only to be told "no, I don't have electricity up here, go to the pier kiosk". So off we go, slightly disgruntled by her manner and we head down to the kiosk. Greeted by a young man "out of stock " and that was that. I know it's only ice cream but the staff really need to learn some people skills and manners. We were slightly annoyed too as there are people raving about this ice cream, in particular the black ice cream. I am sure the quality of their products is great.

Fabulous wholesale shop with the addition of ice-cream vans and premises around Whitby. All made in the factory in the town. Gorgeous flavours.

Lovely cream, good range of interesting flavours and different sizes/ types of cone. Nice to see locally produced ice cream and thank you so much for the free replacement of a child's cone that got lost to a seagull!

The black ice cream looks scary but tastes great!

this hut has been here since I was a child and is still serving excellent quality ice cream. As well as the usual Mr Whippy style ice cream they now do a Whitby Jet ice cream which is like its name suggests extremely black and served on a black cone as well. It tastes just as good as their other ice cream but does stain your teeth and tongue foe a while but that's just part of the fun

Always lovely to eat proper ice cream (not the whippy stuff!) and Trillo"s certainly sell one of the nicest. Spoilt for choice in flavours and cones and very reasonably priced. Fabulous.

For anyone who didn't know.... Black Ice-cream is a thing and they do it here. You have to try it.

We enjoyed quite a few Trillo's whilst in Whitby. The liquorice and blackcurrant ice-cream was particularly nice! Great, friendly service too!

Black, like my soul. Tasty, like ice cream. Charcoal apparently doesn't agree with me very well, but it was tasty and the service was good. You can't digest charcoal, so this WILL turn various secretions black for a couple of days.

Try the liquorice and black Currant! I’m told the other flavours were good as well, and good value as well

Well, what else do you do on a hot day? My daughter, of course, wanted the jet-black gothic Ice-cream, which promptly turned her tongue black too! It's not the best Ice-cream I've ever had (Italy!), but it was refreshing and provide d some fun photos!

Trillos of Whitby are our new suppliers of dairy ice creams and dry goods, the sales team were very helpful and more than willing to go above and beyond to supply us with hard to find products, we met the manager who introduced us to his team and allowed us to sample their ice creams and sorbets.

The intriguing 'Whitby Jet' ice cream is what drew me to the Trillo's kiosk, and was lovely!

The ice cream we had was lovely. I actually thought it was the black ice cream I was ordering but it wasn’t the young lad in their was very ignorant, he snatched the money then basically threw the change in to my hand!! He needs to learn some manners. Not to mention when I got to the front of the queue (many behind me) he went out of the kiosk to talk to somebody!

Amazing icecreams - the Whitby gothic is a firm favourite and worth a return visit to whitby. Will have to try the Whitby jet next time. Staff were very friendly and polite at the kiosk and the van near the whale bones.

Great selection of ice creams, we always enjoy them. A must do when you've been to Whitby and had fish and chips.

This booth sits at the start of the pier. Good selection of quality ice cream. Amaretto and black cherry a favourite.

Stopped here for an ice cream. Sorry but thd ice crsam had lumps of uce in it. Certainly would not rdcommend.

Not an ice cream Parlour. Wholesale ice cream

Good value locally made ice cream and always people waiting to sample the great variety of ice cream on offer.

Great range of ice creams Really enjoyed the gothic But plenty of others to choose from and i'm sure they're all good.

Trillo's have a landrover ice cream van on the beach and a nice shed near the band stand. Great variety of lovely ice cream flavours and handy to the beach and pier. Always busy on a sunny day and great staff.

Just decent ice cream, in a traditional stall setting on the promenade, decent choice of flavours and reasonable prices - what's not to like??

Hot afternoon in Whitby so what else but a seaside icecream? Trillo's have a booth near the bandstand so we treated ourselves. Highly recommend the amaretto & black cherry and also the mint choc chip. Full of flavour, creamy and great value for money.

We tried an Ice Cream from the famous Trillo's Land Rover parked right on the beach and it was lovely. There is also an out sales from a cabin near the harbour. On the side of the van there is a brief history as well. Definitely try the local ice cream if you visit Whitby.

Fab ice cream. Excellent custo mer service. David and Basil are excellent owners. Treat customers as you would like to be treated. X.

Amazing flavours! My favourite is the black cherry and amaretto. You can get your ice cream and walk along the Pier, head down to the beach or sit at the Band Stand. Also try the cinder toffee ice cream.

Lovely traditional locally made ice cream with a great range of flavours to chose from, cinder toffee being my favourite! A must when visiting Whitby!

Delicious luxury ice - cream! I loved the range of flavours and particularly the amaretto and black cherry. The kiosk at the pier is in a great location to get an ice cream when you go onto the beach.
