Why these scores? Method, dates & sources
Experience considers the reward and depth of this particular stop. Visitor friendliness considers practical ease: arrival, booking, physical demands, cost and flexibility. These are editorial judgements based on linked information, not visitor averages or a claim of a personal visit.
Assessed . Supporting guide source-check date: 15 October 2026. The assessment date does not mean every linked source was newly checked.
The blend uses (40 × Experience + 55 × Visitor friendliness) ÷ 95, rounded to the nearest half point. Missing sustainability does not affect it. A missing current visit score is not zero and has no blend.
A high score is not a safety clearance or a guarantee of step-free access. Food-stop scores concern the planned visit, not an untested meal. Read the scale and scope · Suggest a correction.

Is this worth your time?
Choose it as a small food stop alongside a coastal walk. Check the exact branch rather than travelling to a general Teddy’s map result.
Before you go: The brand lists several locations, including Windsor Terrace and East Pier. Opening and product availability should be checked for the chosen outlet.

The story behind the visit
An ice cream tied to the seafront
Teddy’s traces its beginnings to 1950, when Edward Jacob opened the original shop overlooking Scotsman’s Bay at Windsor Terrace. The operator’s history describes the later Khan family stewardship and the enduring association with the 99. That local story is a reason to recognise the name, without needing to turn a simple cone into a major sightseeing obligation. Source ↗
For a visitor, the useful choice is where to fit the stop. The brand now lists more than one seafront location, so choose deliberately and verify the outlet’s hours. A short harbour or coastal walk can provide the setting; there is no need to plan a separate journey solely around an assumed menu or opening time. Ask staff about allergens and dietary requirements before ordering. Source ↗
