My friend and i visited last week (16th July 2020). We had a cup of coffee each, and sat outside in the nice sunshine. Social distancing means one at a time at the counter. There were a few seats inside. Quick and friendly service and nice coffee. The centre itself was open but on this occasion we didnt visit, though have done in the past and its well worth a quick look round.

6. The Robin Hood's Bay Ghost Walk
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 161 reviews
The Original Robin Hood’s Bay Ghost Walk. Take a Unique Tour through Streets and Alleyways as you listen to Tales of the Strange and Supernatural set against a background of Smugglers, Sailors and Shipwrecks, Folklore and Legend. Meet at the Slipway in the Dock outside the Visitor Centre. Dates and times are published on Facebook and the website. There is also a Board showing times, next to the Slipway on days of Walks. This walk is designed to suit most ages. Content for adult only groups will be slightly different to groups with children. But overall it is to amuse, entertain, to be thought provoking and informative. However, the walk is not suitable for small infants (under 3), babies and pushchairs. Only very quiet well behaved dogs please.

We visited Goathland and the North Yorkshire Moors railway and I’m so pleased that we did, the station is full of historical items and posters from the bygone era, the staff are very knowledgeable and will chat to you telling you about the history of the station, The steam train from Pickering to Grosmont which is the next station up is an absolute must if you can go on it id highly recommend it, The train is one of those that was used for filming in Harry Potter so the children will be overjoyed to do this trip, We loved visiting here it was lovely to see the sheep roaming free on the moors and also the Public house and scripps garage used for filming the series Heartbeat You honestly won’t be disappointed for stopping off here it’s truly beautiful

Reviewed By Walruswhiskers
There's a small charge of £1 for adults or £2.50 for a family but it's worth this charge as it's a lovely space. There's interesting information and interactive displays for children. The staff fed the creatures in the tank and talked us through what the creatures such as crabs, prawns and fish would do. It was fascinating to watch and to hear from the staff who obviously are passionate about what they do.

Visited a few times whilst in the area on holiday over the years. Had given up on chocolate as the well known brand (beginning with a C ) has tasted awful recently. This chocolate however is divine and I was so pleased to discover I could order online as I live in Cheshire. The Turkish delight block is my favourite .
