Sundaes, Yarm

An ice cream parlour in Yarm. Perfect for sitting back on Saturday afternoons and even Sunday mornings. Ice creams, crepes, pancakes and many more. 60 flavours all homemade, meaning no two Sundaes experiences are the same. Cool, colourful and truly delicious.

Sorella, Stokesley

Sorella, meaning sisters in Italian, is a swish, sweet serving spot on Stokesley high street. The ice creams are to die for and a lovely companion for browsing the Friday Farmers’ Market when the sun is shining. Pop inside for savory crepes, homemade cakes and tasty milkshake.

Lickety Split, Seaham

Lickety Split is the North East’s original, dedicated dessert parlour next to the Coast. The quality ice cream is such a treat so get yourself an appetising treat next time you are at the beach, because what’s a day at the beach without one?

Wheelbirks, Stocksfield

Spend a beautiful afternoon at Wheelbirks in Stocksfield, Northumberland. The whole family can enjoy sitting in the sun looking onto the views of the Northumberland countryside. If you fancy a day trip one weekend, the farm is open to the public so you can meet the cows that make their award-winning ice cream so special.

Di Meo's, Whitley Bay

Di Meo’s homemade ice cream made by hand every day following the family secret recipe since 1925. Love and dedication is put into making every dessert. Quality, freshness and traditional comes to mind as soon as it hits your taste buds. So it would be rude not to!
