Suggitts is probably the most popular place within Great Ayton. It consists of a small sweet shop and a cafe based around a kind of 50's/60's design. The sweet shop is one of the more old fashioned ones with large jars of sweets on display where you ask for the a quarter of them etc. There's also a more moden selection of sweets just on the counter in front of you. The main attraction however of Suggitts really though has to be the icecream. On a hot day, the queue is literally out the door heaving with cyclists and young families queuing for 99's and ice cream wafers.
The cafe part is small and usually very busy. There's a selection of hot drinks and scones on offer as well as some other small cafe bits.
I would recommend this to anyone, I have cycled up many a time stopping for a rewarding ice cream on the way home. It's ideal for cyclists, families, young couples and old couples. And if you head just over the road and over the river, there's a walk you can do while you happily munch away on your ice cream. Beware parking is free but Great Ayton is a disc zone in parts. Just be prepared to withstand the queues for this hugely popular shop and you'll get what you waited for. read more
