About Scorchio
Scorchio is a gelato shop at Unit 3, Palace Buildings on the Grand Parade in Tynemouth, overlooking Longsands Beach. It is a laid-back, seaside spot serving Ciccarelli artisan gelato, the Blyth-based gelato maker that has been producing gelato since 1966 and has been recognised at national level, including a Best Soft Serve award. The setting makes it a natural stop for a scoop after a surf or a coastal walk along the seafront.
The shop offers a regularly changing selection of flavours, with an emphasis on quality artisan gelato in a relaxed beachfront setting. It typically opens Friday to Sunday, focusing on weekend footfall along the popular Longsands and Grand Parade stretch.
