  “We love Watermark, and have been along four times this week for breakfast or coffee. Three of them have been brilliant experiences, and one terrible. Ordered breakfast at 11.02, and it finally arrived at 11.56 after chasing it up three or four times. The food was lovely when it came, but the communication was non-existent. Yes it's a summer Saturday, but if they knew delays were that long, why not do the professional and courteous thing and let customers know when they order, rather than just take their order and make them wait so long Moral of the story - great place when they're not busy, but expect a long, long wait when they are.”

  “Wound up coming here three times in two days. Great selection of food, cakes and drinks. Decent cortado and very tasty ice cream. Sometimes feel like places like this don’t need to make an effort because of where they are but this one delivers.”

  “Been using this Cafe for years on regular visits to Scarborough. Somthing has shifted gone are the friendly service with a smile staff. Unbelievably miserable. I stood at the counter on my own no que waiting to get served about 5 minutes whilst 2 staff unpaced orange juice and put cups away both looked at me but no acknowledgement not even a , With you in a minute. I almost left. The female staff member came to serve me she did not smile and was almost negative like I was an inconvenience. Food was great. Atmosphere was awful. I won't be going again.”

  “Great place. Good value food. BUT they need to know how to make coffee. My wife ordered two flat white coffees. They came as MILKY Latte type. The server said Flat white and Latte are about the same!!!!! Whaaat! Coffee had no taste, even with a kind offer of an extra shot. Beware.”

  “A great place to stop and have a drink & a slice of cake or even a meal. All the staff are very friendly and are supportive of each other. Continually cleaning, serving and making everyone welcome. We will definitely return. Even the seating outside was heated.”

  “I discovered this place whilst on a run in Scarborough and I am so happy we went back for lunch. The food was delicious at a reasonable price, the staff are excellent despite the Cafe being very busy. We had a delightful walk along the sea front from the south beach to get here but it is well worth the effort. This was probably our best lunch on our Scarborough weekend trip. Thank you.”

  “This cafe on the front of North bay beach at Scarborough was a real find. It's open 07.30am-6pm and serves a delicious full breakfast with options for breakfast butties too. We were drawn initially by the availability of gluten free full breakfast and it didn't disappoint. The place is busy right from opening at 07.30am with a good mix of locals & visitors. There is inside & outdoor seating with nice views of the North bay. You pick a table and order at the kiosk/till, paying at ordering. Drinks are provided then, food follows direct to your table. There is free water available at the back of the cafe too. We didn't visit later in the day at all but the menu had a variety of hot & cold items with gluten free & vegan options, plus a variety of cakes available at the kiosk. Really reasonable prices, friendly staff. There were disabled toilets & changing facilities. Dogs can be sit both inside & outside. I've included a photo of north bay, the cafe is the blue & white one in the foreground on the right side of the road at the bottom of the hill. We were staying in The Sands apartment complex so this was perfectly located for a delicious breakfast to start the day.”
