Food scene
will openly admit that I can be sometimes prone to exaggeration… BUT, EatMe have the best chips I have ever eaten in my entire life! EatMe is a stylish little Café that is located either on Hanover Road, or within the Stephen Joseph Theatre itself (You might need to check which they are operating out of!) EatMe specializes in Asian Fusion dishes but you can also hit the jackpot with their special’s menu. I have eaten here dozens of times and I have never had a bad meal. I would recommend the Ramen every time but you really can’t go wrong with anything you pick; you absolutely have to get a side of chips though! EatMe have a delicious selection of home-made cakes and serve alcohol. I really can’t recommend them enough!

Florios is a local family-owned Italian restaurant in the heart of Scarborough town centre. It is the most popular location for meals out with the family. I think it’s safe to say, if you haven’t had a meal here for a special family occasion are you even from Scarborough? Florios by design is cheap and cheerful, and from opening until 7pm you will get happy hour pricing which makes it an absolute steal for how good the food is! I would recommend the garlic bread with tomato for starters, and I love their carbonara!

I don’t care what anyone says, Cinnamon is the best Indian in Scarborough! The food is outstanding and the service is always top notch. It is a little bit further afield being on Dean Road but it is definitely worth the walk if you fancy a curry. Cinnamon doesn’t have an alcohol license so they welcome customers to bring their own, which means an even cheaper night! My usual order here is a lamb and spinach balti!

Kam Sang is on the corner of North Marine Road, opposite the YMCA theatre. It has a spacious seating area, top quality service and food that is to die for. I have seen first hand the duck pancake sharing starter and it is huge! My usual order here is Kung Po Chicken, it is one of the best Chinese Restaurants I have been to, in fact the only one I can think of that beats it was in New York. Wait, it gets better! Kam Sang offers a discount on all food that is ordered to take away! Top quality Chinese food at a steal of a price!

The Open Air Theatre has attracted a huge variety of acts from local legends to world famous performers such as Kylie Minogue and Elton John. They do sell out of tickets quickly so keep an eye out on their twitter account for act / ticket announcements.

The Sealife Centre is a family favourite, here you can see a wide variety of wildlife, from seaturtles, to sharks and penguins! They also have a mini golf course. The Sealife Centre has a café but I would recommend bringing a pack up as it is on the expensive side!

The Commercial has recently been refurbished and looks lovely. They have sky sports and what seems like a million TV's showing the games. Food here is also good. I would also recommend trying the tiny pizzas for half time!

The Olympia Leisure is the biggest amusement arcade on the beach. It is also Scarborough's only bowling alley that has its own bar. I definitely recommend going for a game or two of bowling while you are here!

THE BEST ICE CREAM IN THE WORLD! I have not had ice cream better than the harbour bar, they even have cones that can fit every flavour in at once. I would recommend the banana twist, the raspberry twist and the mango twist. The harbour bar is a staple of Scarborough life, cheap and delicious!
