    Great vid, absolutely love Scarbados, Harbour bar is amazing, just a couple of points in my opinion, Lifeboat Fishbar is head and shoulders better than all the seafront chippys, and also, when the hell did we start calling traditional seaside food 'streetfood'??? ridiculous terminology...

    Prices have certainly risen since I lived in Scarborough and left the UK a few years ago. £6.50 for a cheese burger! Can get a good American burger, chips and a drink in a cafe where I live for less than that.

      @@goodfes Back in the '60s / '70s for me. There was a local pub, which some mates and I used to frequent and it had a permanent seafood stall outside, with all the different types of shellfish offered on little ceramic plates. With lashings of good strong vinegar and a ton of pepper, you could work your way through the whole variety, no problem, well I could at least! Occasionally, I'd call in on a Sunday lunchtime and buy half a pint of winkles for tea later on. A winkle sandwich or two was manna from heaven but then I'm a Battersea lad at heart!
