Bettys Café Tea Rooms is a renowned and iconic establishment in Harrogate, Yorkshire, dating back to 1919. It has become a beloved spot for locals and tourists alike. The tearoom offers both formal afternoon teas and casual dining with a British menu. Visitors can expect an elegant setting with silver cake stands, fine china, and staff dressed in period costumes.
Our friend who lived in Harrogate for years suggested we go to Betty's for tea and it didn't disappoint! There was a line outside but it moved quite fast and we were seated within ten minutes. I got the club sandwich and my husband got the afternoon tea. Everything was yummy and looked fantastic! The service was stellar and the decor was very nice inside. We really enjoyed the afternoon there! I would highly recommend it.

Bettys afternoon tea was a delight. Been recommended by many people in the Harrogate area, so I took the wife. She absolutely loved it. She had the raspberry tea and me, the coffee. Sandwiches were good, scones were great, make sure you ask for more clotted cream and jam, you don’t have to pay extra, the cakes were delightful. Could do with a couple more though 😋 Unsure if extras, like additional cakes and sandwiches are free, some people around were getting additional, we were offered an additional sandwich which we took and it was not added to the bill, which was a nice surprise. Stunning tea room, clean decor. Love pianist playing in the corner of he room is a beautiful touch. Service was great, very attentive. Lena looked after us well. Overall, a highly recommended experience if you’re in the area. You can book online or queue up outside in the huge queue that is there daily!

We were blown away by the friendly customer service, all the staff were superb especially Karen who popped back to our table to ask if we wanted any more sandwiches cakes or tea, which were all delicious. We didn't feel rushed at all, seated in the Imperial room we had already booked ahead.The rooms decor was extremely beautiful and the piano playing created an unique background to this special occasion.

My wife having ordered online previously and seen the shop when last in Harrogate over 3 years ago had suggested we go in. Whilst an orderly queue was formed outside, we patiently waited for about 5 - 10 mins. Inside we were seated and served by attentive and professional staff. Ok, so we only had sandwiches, hot chocolate and gooey fat rascals - they were by far some of the nicest we have had.

A must visit when you are in Harrogate even if you need to queue. The wait is not long. Betty's has a very cosy ambience. The menu is extensive and makes you want to try many dishes. We decided on the English breakfast including the vegan option. Accompanied by a pot each of Betty's tea blend and Breakfast tea. The desserts were yummy too (Engadine Torte and the Fruit Tart).

Queued around 20 mins to get in. Queue combers bring menus and a few little tasters from the shop which was nice. We got in and were given a table right in the window with peoples bottoms for eyes on us at all times. Maybe some privacy screening might be an idea. We were quite uncomfortable but staff were unable to help. The food and drink was nice, no complaints about quality and the price isn’t too bad considering. Staff are professional but rushed off their feet. Can’t help feeling they have jammed as many tables in as physically possible and you’re really paying for the name of Betty’s. The prices in the shop were extortionate. Won’t be rushing back. The location js ideal though with parking nearby and lots to do locally.

Absolutely fantastic, we had a great time. I have always wanted to go and our visit did not disappoint. The atmosphere was great we had the pianist near us adding to the ambience. The food was delicious. Our server was attentive, kind and friendly. It was our anniversary and our server made sure it was special. Would highly recommend a fabulous experience.

Very famous and iconic destination for tea, cakes, scones and hot food. We were a group of nine but split up into a 5 and 4 table. It gets very busy and there is an orderly queue outside. You have to wait in line before being seated. I think we waited for about 25mins before being taken into our table. The lady keeping things in check was very organised and on point, hats off to her as youd have to be. Once in, the restaurant was warm, and it didn't feel cramped. It was very well organised, the service was excellent. We were seated, and I think we probably waited another 7ish minutes before our order was taken. It was quite a big restaurant with seating all round the back and sides and I think there was a mezzanine level as well. The food was good. I had the avocado and poached egg on sourdough bread which was delicious. Accompanied with a pot of earl grey. My mum wife and friend had a mix of croquet monsieur, scone and a slice of coffee cake. Nice ambience. We didn't feel rushed and had a pleasant relaxing meal. Good experience, not the cheapest but you have to come. There's also a shop to the right as you come in selling, tea, coffee, scones, biscuits and totee bags etc. Rather expensive but we left with a lovely tin of spiced tea. Good all round experience, if youre not the patient type and not in a rush, then this is the place to come. I would probably go back with my wife and try more of the cakes.

Nestled in the heart of Harrogate's Victoria Shopping Centre, Mama Doreen's Emporium is a delightful destination for those with a sweet tooth. Since 2009, this charming spot has been serving up an array of homemade cakes, pastries, and desserts. From traditional scones to unique and vibrant cakes, there's something to satisfy every craving.
Lovely! Was a impulsive visit, but also extremely worth it, went for a little afternoon tea for our anniversary and got the option of the normal one as well as the special blossom afternoon tea Was actually very lovely to have the option of both of so me and the partner just swapped between us what we’d like, everything is just so yummy and very well prepared, couldn’t fault it at the staff will lovely and attentive told you everything that was on there and their recommendations too!

A wonderful visit to Mama Doreens in Harrogate with our 9-Year old daughter, we were warmly greeted and enjoyed the "Friends Themed Afternoon Tea" which was amazing & wonderfully inventive! The food was great, the atmosphere was relaxed & our daughter enjoyed her children's version of the afternoon tea - and was excited to receive her sweety bag at the end! We couldnt eat it all - so boxed the rest & took it home. All-in-all a great experience & highly recommended!

Loved the venue, the decor was lovely and autuminal themed. Got seated really quickly with a copy of the menu for what we booked. We had opted for the Sunday lunch afternoon tea. Took 30 minutes for this to arrive with our tea, and where this doesn't sound long, for this being pre booked, I think a little excessive. When it arrived everything looked delicious, we could also see the other themed options and they looked equally as good. We couldn't finish the sweet treats so had to have take out. One recommendation I would put forward to the team is the cold sandwich selection (ham and piccalilli & beef with horseradish), these are strong flavours that aren't for everyone but there isn't an option to have them made without. I think with booking ahead you could specify that this is left off, but they can't accommodate which is a shame as that definitely spoilt my experience. Overall I think it's expensive, you are paying for the experience rather than the food as such. But glad I've done it. The trifle and pigs in blankets was delicious 🤤

I would like to share what was a very disappointing visit on Friday 26 September for my mother’s 80th birthday. Pre-booked with request of a 80th birthday and table away from the door if possible. Pleasant welcome but no reference to a birthday visit at all. Table away from the door, yes but literally tucked behind the bar/counter right in the corner. For me, the worst table in the place. Took an age for someone to ask if we had had our order taken (which we hadn’t) and take it. Ordered tea, brie sandwiches with cup of soup and ham/cheese sandwiches with cup of soup. Tea was luke warm and the teapot was a bad dribbler. Really annoying. Brie panini arrived. Advised chap server that it was wrong. He didn’t offer to change. Said we’d try it. Knife wouldn’t cut it!!! Didn’t like it and left it. Then we ordered scones with jam and cream. Had to ask for additonal napkins and knives. These were very nice. Advised the order was wrong and scones weren’t charged. At no time during the lunch did anyone come and ask if we were good. There were other people at the cafe enjoying their birthday with special attention from the staff. No thank you and goodbye either. Really, really disappointing. A previous visit was great. Your attitude and lack of service spoilt what was meant to be a lovely little memorable lunch. Please be mindful of future visitors as I wouldn’t want them to have the same experience.

We had the most wonderful experience at Mama Doreen’s in Harrogate, and it was made truly special thanks to Tasha. From the moment we arrived, she went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and looked after. Her warm personality, attention to detail, and genuine care turned our visit into something memorable. Tasha anticipated everything we needed without us even asking and made sure every part of our afternoon tea was perfect. It’s rare to come across someone who delivers service with such enthusiasm and kindness — she really is a credit to the team! Thank you, Tasha, for making our visit so lovely. We’ll definitely be back soon and will be recommending Mama Doreen’s (and you!) to all our friends.

Nice place food is really nice plenty of gluten free options and huge portions . Would be a 5 star but I felt like in the end of our reservation they kicked us out . We still had 5 minutes we were just taking our coats and the server already started to clean the table and set up for the next guest . I can understand it’s a very busy place however would be nice to give us an extra two minutes just to get our bags and jackets .

The Ivy Harrogate Garden is a stylish and sophisticated venue offering all-day British fare in a luxurious setting. The restaurant boasts high ceilings, Art Deco features, and antique ornamental pieces, creating an elegant atmosphere for dining. Despite its ornate decor, the ambiance is informal and laidback, making it an ideal spot for brunch or evening meals. With a bar area and terrace garden, guests can enjoy modern British cuisine along with cocktails in gorgeously styled interiors.
Booked for my daughters wedding day brunch here and was not disappointed. The service was excellent, and the food was fantastic with a price tag that I was really pleased about.No parking was the only downside, and it was a little cold when the back patio doors were opened. The decor inside is gorgeous, and you can see why people flock here. It is very highly recommended if you're in the area and want quality food served by attentive well trained staff.

This was my first ever visit to an Ivy restaurant and to say i was amazed by the beautiful interior would be an understatement. The moment you walk in you’re greeted by staff who look after you very well throughout your entire meal. The food was on another level, i had the ossobuco which i was apprehensive towards at first but it was honestly incredible. When the staff found out we were celebrating two birthdays, they brought out two complimentary, birthday desserts!! Lovely atmosphere, fantastic service and top tier food!

Incredible breakfast today celebrating a special occasion (release of my second book)! Keira was so attentive, kind and affable and the food was excellent. I had the set breakfast which was generous and delicious (full English, croissant they kindly boxed up for my daughter) and a refreshing green juice. My mum had poached eggs and switched the muffins for sourdough. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you!

Ordered from the two course £20.95 Heritage menu, was known as the 1917 menu when I went there. The starter I had was very nice, fried truffle rice balls as I recall, tasted fresh and a decent portion size. I had a main course of shepherd's pie which tasted very nice however the portion size was just as big as my starter, if not slightly smaller. I appreciate it is a fixed price, two-course menu which may well have been why my portion size was small but I didn't order any sides because I was under the impression that the main would be slightly bigger than the starter which wasn't the case here at all and I left here still feeling hungry. Atmosphere in the restaurant was excellent, was very busy but the staff were great too, kept checking-in with us to make sure everything was OK which it was in terms of the quality of the food but not the portion size but that isn't down to the waiters so no point bothering them with that.

We came here for breakfast on the 6/10/25 and were served by the lovely Kiera. She was so warm and welcoming with plenty check backs and the food impeccably presented. This was a birthday treat for my mam and she added a nice touch by treating us to a little cake at the end. Thank you so much for your amazing service and food at the Ivy this morning and this really made our birthday weekend a one to remember.

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Harrogate, The Old Swan Hotel is a charming retreat that beautifully blends history with modern elegance. This ivy-clad establishment is not only renowned for its luxurious accommodations but also for its intriguing past as Agatha Christie's hideaway during her mysterious disappearance in 1926. With 136 stylishly appointed rooms ranging from singles to opulent four-poster suites, guests can enjoy comfort and sophistication at every turn.
A stayover for a murder mystery in Harrogate. It was a fabulous experience From arriving to leaving. Although a cashless hotel they have items for sale such as jewellery (gorgeous) gloves and handbags on display which were for sale with cash (glad I took cash as I bought some jewellery). The staff were lovely and helpful the food was delicious. The hotel was clean and well kept. I do have 1 small complaint there is a charge of £12 to park there which when booked was not advised of. However just so people are aware I did not see the information on the website (maybe I missed it). The murder mystery dinner was really excellent. Would recommend both the "murder mystery" and the hotel.

The Old Swan Hotel is a lovely, grand-looking building with plenty of charm and character. Its location is excellent—just a gentle 5–10 minute stroll from Harrogate town centre, making it an ideal base for exploring the area. Staff are friendly, attentive, and very presentable and we especially want to mention Reagan, who was polite, understanding, and genuinely tried to help us with an issue during our stay. The decor is quite dated and could benefit from refurbishment, but to the hotel’s credit, every area was spotlessly clean. Beds were comfortable and our shower room was of a good standard, however, our rooms were just so unbearably hot! In our room, we had a sash window which only opened very slightly. Even with a fan on in our room it was still stifling, the fan simply recirculated hot air! The bedroom’s radiators were actually off, however there must be hot pipes running around the room, which are boxed in to conceal them, but naturally a lot of heat still generates through the boxing . . . there was just no way of us turning these off! Despite raising our concerns with the hotel, on three separate occasions, nothing was done to resolve it! Reagan kindly explained that management had said the heating was on a timer and couldn’t be turned down or off, which we found very difficult to believe. The result was two very uncomfortable nights for us and our family, including our 91-year-old aunt, which at her age was very concerning. The food was average. Three of our guests ordered the superfood salad to start, which turned out to be little more than a bowl of salad leaves with very little else. Main courses were also disappointing, especially considering the prices charged . . . we expected a much higher standard. Breakfast was marginally better, with a variety of breakfast items on offer and vegan choices too. The serving staff were always very polite, friendly and professional, they were neatly presented throughout. With some attention to the hotel’s heating system/temperature control, the hotel’s menu quality, and a refurbishment, this hotel could be exceptional.

Stayed for 2 nights really lovely old hotel plenty of character and mostly spotlessly clean however attention to detail needs adjusting there were many cobwebs on the inside of the window frames in room 358 which were behind the nets that I noticed on opening them. The breakfasts were acceptable however they need to learn how to make edible porridge i ordered some and couldn't eat it nor did the lady on the next table it actually tasted of washing up liquid a simple apology about a complaint is sometimes not enough as I was then left filling up on toast that I had to make myself.

Lovely local landmark, with a great story. Staff are warm and welcoming, rooms are decent and very warm. I didn’t eat at the hotel but I did have a few beers, and they were not cheap. They have a full sized snooker table that can be hired out for £10, and that was well worth it.

A lovely hotel, for a quiet break in the centre of Harrogate. Parking on site is plentiful and only £12 a night which is very reasonable in this area. Lose to all local amenities, eateries and the pump museum as well as Valley Gardens which are beautiful. We stayed in a standard double with dinner and breakfast included. What a lovely break we had. It’s a little quieter than we are used to and popular with a slightly older guest range. But that was fine for us. The room was spotless, bathroom incredibly so. The hotel has lots of cosy corners and areas to sit and relax as well as a bar and restaurant. There were events happening whilst we were there but we never heard a thing and the atmosphere was fantastic. Really enjoyed the stay and would recommend for a peaceful break. Thank you to the staff who were all helpful and professional. Only slight issue was that we were rather warm in the night. But better than being cold!

Hotel is a lovely old victorian building. It includes shopping floors even in the bedroom! Location is perfect for walking into the town centre. We didn't eat or use the bar here so cannot comment on the food or drinks. Our room was huge, bland decor and looked out over the staff entrance so cigarette smoke wafted through the window. We needed it open as it was so warm. Also coaches parked in this area. It was tight and the skill of the drivers meant they had to perform many small manoeuvres to park. This means loud warning beeps for some time until it was in the right place. Not moaning about this but it may be irritating for some. Bed was two singles poorly put together with a lumpy mattress. Tea and coffee facilities were as usual for these type of hotels but they were placed across the other side of the room from the only available plug socket! The staff were polite, reception staff quite cool but breakfast staff lovely.

We stayed at the hotel Friday 24th to Sunday 26th. Wd had a lovely stay. Was really impressed with the hotel the decor is dated but.. it was amazing g to stay somewhere so old. Yet all the amenities were there. I know everyone is going g on about how warm the rooms were. Omg they were . But open the window . And it gets cooler. The breakfast was lovely always hot plenty of choice. Location into Harrogate ideal. We were going to visit knaresborough but so busy there The receptionist told us that there is a local bus to get to knaresborough so will definitely visit again and get the bus. Thank you again to all the staff .

Stayed at the old swan yesterday for a Murder Mystery event which I must say was very enjoyable. Unfortunately the hotel did not live up to my expectations. It is a very tired hotel which needs a lot of money to bring it up to the so called 4 stars status. The view from my room which was 189 was a brick wall.The paint was peeling off the radiators and walls. The phone for reception didn’t work. No hot water and bed side lights didn’t work. Also no kettle / tea / coffee facilities in the room. It was very ,very basic. The breakfast was well below the standard I would expect for a 4 star hotel.This was a gift from my daughter and I must say if I had paid for this I would be asking for a full refund. Very disappointed

RHS Garden Harlow Carr in Harrogate offers specially designed gardens that showcase the Yorkshire landscape, featuring trails, a log maze, and charming tea rooms. The garden hosts engaging events like 'Under Your Feet,' where families can explore the world of mini-beasts and learn about underground wildlife's vital role in maintaining beautiful and healthy gardens. Visitors can also enjoy Forest School outdoor workshops and become Garden Detectives.
A great day out exploring Harlow Carr. Entry was cheap due to a national lottery event where you only had to buy a lotto ticket to get £1 entry. I felt this was good as it was early spring so not as much to see as later in the year. Having said that, this is still a beautiful place. Very peaceful and relaxing walking around. Great play areas for the kids and good food choices on site

I visited over the weekend for the first time and it is an absolute gem; it was an unforgettable experience. Every section in the resort is designed for relaxation and experiencing nature. I particularly appreciate the exceptional staff on premise; I had an issue and they went beyond and above to look after me. The experience left a lasting impression and added a sense of luxury throughout my stay. I look forward to returning soon and creating more memories.

What a wonderful place to visit, within walking distance of the centre of Harrogate! I came here on a coach trip, and stayed about two and a half hours. A lady at the entrance greeted us and gave us all a free map, which I found very helpful. Adult admission is £16.80 (it's £12.50 if you pre-book online), 5-16's get in for £5, and under-5's and RHS members go free. Lots of free parking. The garden is extensive, with well maintained tarmac and gravel paths, and a few hilly parts and steps, but most of it is wheelchair accessible, and you can hire a wheelchair or scooter at the entrance. Harlow Carr is a delight to explore, with colourful flower borders, a streamside walk, sandstone rock garden, lily ponds, a small lake, wildflower meadows, an arboretum, and much more. It all looked beautifully kept, the plants clearly labelled. I particularly loved strolling through woodland filled with lovely rhododendrons, azaleas, and other flowering shrubs, and relaxing on a swing bench among palms and exotic plants in the subtropical garden. There are plenty of wooden benches and shelters, picnic areas, toilets at the entrance and dotted around the garden, and a children's adventure playground and tree house in the woods. Three cafes, a garden centre and two gift shops. Betty's Tea House is the ideal place to chill: great view of the garden, and a good selection of drinks, cakes and sandwiches. The coffee was very good. Did not get to see all the gardens (you need at least three hours), but I thoroughly enjoyed wandering around them and getting close to nature. Will definitely come again!

Absolutely recommend. We got there by bus and there is a stop right off of the grounds which made it convenient. (Be sure to ask for the discount for not driving when you pay for entry. I think it’s 30% off for taking the bus or walking or biking). The cafe had a nice variety. The garden was extensive and so beautiful. Tons of space to lay out a blanket and enjoy the day. Def recommend staying for at least 2 hours (minimum) but you can spend the entire day here.

This place is a gem! Judging by the car park a lot of people already know. As to be expected, the gardens were beautiful and more plants than you can shake a stick at. There is a Betty's cafe right at the entrance and another inside, the food is homemade and very nice. Staff are very helpful and pleasant. You can hire a mobility scooter if required. It seems a little pricey for entrance fee.....but where isn't? However they have a number of exceptions which can reduce the cost. Not knowing what to expect prior to entry my wife and I were pleasantly surprised. I would highly recommend.....go early!

Harlow Carr is a beautiful place to visit with so much to see and learn about different plants. It feels really open and peaceful, and there are fun activities along the way to keep children entertained. The two cafés are a bonus – especially having a Betty’s on site – and the shop often has discounted plants, which is great if you love gardening. A lovely spot for families or anyone who enjoys being outdoors.

A fabulous place to visit. We go every season so much to see and its wonderful watching the newer projects as they develop. Plenty of places to eat and drink at reasonable prices. Though if you want to splash out there is always an option to visit Bettys Tea room and shop. Play area for the children and plenty of seating to relax in.

Nestled within the enchanting Victorian Arcade, The Harrogate Tea Rooms is a delightful family-run establishment that has been charming visitors since its opening in 2012. This quaint tearoom offers a cozy atmosphere reminiscent of a vintage front room, complete with soothing 40s music and an array of homemade treats. Known for their scrumptious scones—served with or without clotted cream—it's the perfect spot to indulge in a refreshing tea break while exploring the boutique shops nearby.
Tasty food, and for a tea room the cakes and scones are baked to perfection. Lovely staff. Not the largest of tea rooms in the area but in a gorgeous little arcade upstairs makes it a very quaint and charming setting.

Nice little cafe away from the busy areas in the Westminster arcade upstairs. Good food and drinks with friendly staff. Sandwiches fresh and tasty. Some unusual beers on offer. Cakes look good to.

Wonderful Tea Rooms located inside Westminster Arcade on Parliament Street Harrogate A must visit when in town Good friendly service, ample seating There is a wide range of home baked cakes, scones, cupcakes and brownies and light meals and snacks including omelettes, Quiché, panninis and much more You can have the cakes packed to enjoy at home too I thoroughly enjoyed thr carrot cake which was amazing included fruit and ginger which was very tasty.. I bought a carrot cake cupcake when I left. The tearooms are featured in a local crime fiction book series by Malcolm Hollingdrake and the main character is known to frequent the tearooms in the novels. There is a range of the novels available to buy here too. Highly Recommended

Chap gets a gong for being the most friendly, welcoming, genial and politest of persons. Nice little café upstairs in the arcade. Quiet, pleasant location. Very clean café. Homemade cakes all looked tempting. Really good range of loose leaf teas. The only thing to let it down was the frugal, meagre and skimpy serving of cheese on my "posh cheese on toast". What I had was lovely and tasty, but for the price, there really wasn't much cheese on it at all. Sorry to have to say that, as everything else was great. I would revisit now I know it's here, but cuppa and cake next time - the pistachio and almond cake looked especially good.

Really great food and lovely friendly staff. We had afternoon tea which was a sandwich of your choice (we got prawn and egg both very tasty) and then scone of your choice (we had a yorkshire tea scone and rapsberry with lemon scone again very yummy!). Would recommend

Brilliant Tea Rooms. Excellent foods, teas, coffees, cakes. Attentive service. You should not miss this establishment, find it off street in Westminster Arcade. Queue at Bettys for an hour or walk two minutes away to Harrogate Tea Rooms, the choice is yours.
MARTIN S — Google review
Have to confess that we were hoping to go to Bettys but there was a queue! Saw a sign for this place so popped in. What a delightful little place. We were told there would be a short wait for the rhubarb and vanilla scone as it was just in the oven - can't get fresher than that! It was delicious, as was the cherry and sultana (very naughty and had jam and cream too). We had coffee (sorry!) as needed a boost before driving home to the Midlands but the tea selection looked interesting. A nice selection of home made cakes on display, all looked very tasty. The staff were really friendly, very nice visit.

Nestled just outside of town near the iconic Yorkshire Showground, Fodder - Farm Shop and Cafe is a delightful pit stop for brunch enthusiasts exploring the picturesque Crimple Valley. This spacious cafe, bathed in natural light and designed with sustainability in mind—featuring a sedum roof and solar panels—is one of Yorkshire's greenest establishments. Fodder prides itself on showcasing local produce from numerous farmers and small producers, offering beloved country cafe classics like the hearty Great Yorkshire Breakfast.
Stopped for an early lunch, turned out to be a good choice. A great egg roll and excellent bacon butties. Looking round other dinners, the food looked just as good. Staff were excellent, shown to the table by a bilingual chap, who was helpful and served by Rosie, who was very friendly and efficient. Highly recommend and will definitely return

Lovely setting with wide selection of food and drink. The farm shop has been recently been refurbished and I feel this is reflected in the prices they are now charging £3.50 for a 4 pack of currant teacakes, our local farm shop in Halifax uses local bakers and they only charge £1.95, they also support “local farmers” and manage to keep prices reasonable. The artisan bread starts at £4-5 again we’ve shopped around the country and these are inflated prices and not in line with people’s budgets. We were staying at the campsite next door and felt it was nice for a mooch around but we really couldn’t afford to buy food to cook a meal at those prices.

We usually enjoy the Fodder coffee and food experience at Fodder, which makes today’s experience more disappointing. It wasn’t even that busy, it took ages before we could flag someone to take our order, in the end the coffee never arrived so rather than flagging someone to ask where the coffees are - we left. Hopefully this was just an off day, as we’ve really enjoy Fodders.

Lovely cafe. Staff were friendly and attentive. Found us a table with space to accommodate a pushchair. Food was excellent and I personally loved getting proper chunky chips rather than skinny fries. Anther good mark was getting lemon with my Earl Grey tea and a separate pot of hot water. The farm shop was full of very nice produce and again the staff were very friendly. Reall enjoyed our visit.

This is a very popular farm shop and cafe. First class regional produce to buy and also ear as part of an excellent menu. Yes it isn't the cheapest, but good value for money considering the quality of food. Supporting local regional producers wherever possible. The staff are excellent- well done!

We have visited Fodder twice recently. Sat lunchtime and Monday morning. Both times the place was busy, but moving at a good pace. The staff really very polite, friendly and helpful (when they finally got to us, as it seemed to take a while to both order and get the bill). Tables were cleared and new customers seated promptly. Food was very good and poached eggs cooked to perfection! £15 for the breakfast in the pic, but it is Harrogate. We like the shop, the room is spacious and we never felt rushed. The butcher's there is simply fantastic. It's great to watch them work and they are helpful and knowledgeable. It was a really great experience each time. Good job to the staff. It will be a pleasure to come back.

Staff 10/10 - Rosie is without a doubt my new favourite person. Friendly, lovely to engage with and proudly told us how she absolutely loves what she does. Her attitude and conversation and service clearly sell that message as well. What a saint. Also Bonus points for the lad who seated us on Sunday the 28th of September, what a champ he is as well. Food was great, but everyone already knows that, that’s why we come. £15 for a full English, which isn’t a massive portion, however, the quality is second to none. Between Fodder and Farmhouse (my lass and i’s regulars) we love walking through the door here to be looked after and hand over our brass.

Consistent 5 star service in both the restaurant and shop. The quality of the produce and extensive menu is as good as it gets. The staff are professional, knowledgeable and attentive. A special mention for Diana who has looked after us in the restaurant several times, she is a true credit for Fodder.

Jenny's Tea Shop is a hidden gem located in the Montpellier Quarter of Harrogate, offering a delightful escape from the bustling crowds. Surrounded by vintage and boutique stores, it provides an ideal setting for a leisurely break or a light lunch. The shop boasts indoor and outdoor seating where visitors can indulge in fresh scones, cakes, and afternoon teas.
We liked this place better than any other in the area. It feels honest and homely, not over dressed or frilly. Great food and friendly staff. We made it our "local" during our stay in Harrogate. I can definitely recommend the quiche, the ploughman's and the lemon cake. No queuing in the cold either.

Discovered this quaint and cosy little tea room quite by chance on a day trip to Harrogate. It's well hidden in the cobbled back streets of the Montpellier Quarter, but happily for me, there was a sign pointing the way through a ginnel to the charming little courtyard that it shares with an antique shop. The café is family run and very welcoming. It was the owner himself who greeted me; he was both helpful and friendly, and I soon felt right at home. The interior of the café is small and nicely decorated with china teacups, vintage lampshades, and beautifully embroidered tablecloths. Ample outdoor seating. There are toilets in another building just across the courtyard. Good choice of hot and cold drinks (had a refreshing ginger beer). The menu was small but offered a nice selection of light meals, including sandwiches, bagels, omelettes, and jacket potatoes. They also do afternoon teas, and there were some delicious-looking homemade cakes on display. Opted for the ploughman's lunch. Well prepared, fresh, tasty and filling, it included three types of cheese, homemade quiche, a whole apple, and two slices of lovely fresh brown bread with butter. Excellent value at only £9 (£12.10 if you include the ginger beer!). I'm so glad I found this place! Would thoroughly recommend.

Visited Harrogate recently and wanted to avoid the obvious tea room choice having already enjoyed it elsewhere. Stumbled upon this little gem and absolutely loved it from the start. It has that typically slightly eccentric look about it. Warm, homely, and welcoming, with a small dash of bonkers Englishness. Who in their right mind would have tea cups hanging in the windows and an entire wall decorated with old mirrors? But here it somehow works. Kind of makes you feel like you're on a visit to an elderly relative somewhere. Cosy and familiar feeling in a way that larger premises rarely manage. The service was friendly and efficient and the food and drink when it came was on a par with anything else I had experienced. A generous three tiers of cakes scones and sandwiches was a challenge to complete in one sitting, but a challenge that was eagerly accepted. And when there was a piece of cake leftover a box was provided to take it away without any hesitation. I should just mention that the toilet facilities are housed in an adjacent building and I personally found this arrangement a little confusing at first. However I absolutely refuse to mark them down for this as every other aspect of the experience was so far above expectation. If you find your little finger extending every time you raise a teacup to your lips, then you will find a proper place to drink it here.

Quaint little spot with indoor and outdoor seating. They do a wonderful afternoon tea- tea, sandwichs, cakes, and scones with clotted cream and jam (savory scones also available). You can also get hot food like chili over rice. The kitchen closes at 3pm, but you can still get sweets and tea, shop closes at 4pm. Wait staff are always pleasant and service is swift.

Well! What a find! So much competition in Harrogate but I know what sort of cafe I like and I stuck it out till I found it! Perfect! My husband said it was the best ploughman's he'd ever had! My bacon brie and cranberry panini was delicious and topped with lovely fresh salad and coleslaw. The tea served in a lovely pot with extra hot water and a really tasty homemade shortbread. We actually bought another after as they were so yummy . What a wonderful place. Very clean and tastefully decorated. Well done all of you. A really fabulous lunch

Located in the elegant Georgian townhouses of Prospect Place, Hotel du Vin Harrogate offers sophisticated rooms and suites as well as a French-style bistro and bar. The property also has a Health du Vin spa with a drench shower, steam room and lounge area.
Stayed here in a suite on our honeymoon and we were blown away with the class, service and elegance of this hotel, which is also in a great location with ideal payable parking right outside the front door. The room was huge with a big balcony overlooking the back of the hotel with complimentary champagne in our package. The bar it a true cocktail bar which looks the part and the staff to match. The breakfast Buffett is also amazing with fresh produce and amazing service. My only complaint is that there are crisps, nuts, and chocolate next to the coffee machine which look like they are free but there is not label telling you that they are chargeable unless you look in the mini bar Menu which we didn’t but the hotel agreed with us on checkout and took them of the bill, keep up the good work

Hotel Du Vin is in a perfect spot for exploring Harrogate. Overall, it's a nice hotel and the service was friendly and polite although a little slow in the dining room at breakfast. I was disappointed in the room - it was perfectly clean and comfortable but for a Deluxe room, the decor didn't feel deluxe to me. It was very plain and I'd go as far as to say bland. The bed was very comfortable but the pillows weren't great. But, we had a great stay and loved exploring the local area. Yorkshire is really beautiful.

I will definitely add it into my go-to venues for a relaxed glass of wine and I want to try the food too asap

This our 3rd time staying here. First two times we stopped in a classic room. This time We upgraded to a deluxe room. Which was well worth it. The room was fantastic with a huge very comfortable bed. And all the amenities you could want. The bathroom was amazing with a walking shower and a separate room off the bathroom with a roll top bath. The room was very warm but they provided a large fan. The only downside of the room was the USB points were not working. Which is not a problem as we just plugged our devices in to a normal plug. The decor of the room was beautiful, could do with a few touch ups here and there. Over all the room was lovely and we had a very comfortable stay. The staff are all very welcoming and helpful. We ate in the restaurant. We would definitely recommend eating here. The food was exceptional and as for the wine it was outstanding. The service yet again was excellent. We will be back a four time. Just want to add about the parking there is a car par 5 minutes walk away which costs £8.40 for 24 hours.

Totally disappointed with this hotel . The check in and check out experience was absolutely awful. The basement room was lacking ...no sofa no extra duvet no water. Need a good paint and new carpet. Steps down to room could do with a sweep Curtains did not close properly. When yiu tried to close the curtains it knocked the ariel oug gir thd TV . Tea and coffee was hostel like . Staff indeed of hospitality training ....just ohe example at check in no questions asked like have you stayed with us before...let .e tell yoy about the bistro times and how to book ...instead you ate in the basement ..Big room access bus outside steps will you be ok ....what with my suitcase and 2 other bags . Honestly I had hoped to be booking this hotel for future visits to Harrogate 4 over the next months months but my visit was cold and soulless

Parking spaces out the front and a few at the back of the hotel but it's £15 to park in them! I found it cheaper just to park in the street parking also around the hotel. Quick check on all information given. My room was outside and below the hotel in the basement. The room was very spacious as was the bathroom. Very modernized and contemporary. The bed was super comfortable. Wifi excellent The shower was hot and powerful. Breakfast is not included but could be added if wanted. Location is close to the shops and lots of nice walks. Would highly recommend and definitely stay again when in the area.

Better than it used to be. Although check-in was painful, enter your registration plate twice, sign in 3 places, just unnecessary. Unfortunately breakfast was a let down as they serve a disgusting sweet brown sauce in place of HP Sauce. You can visit any one star greasy spoon cafe and they serve better HP Sauce at breakfast than this supposed 4* hotel. What a disappointment.

Looking at this hotel from the website it looks great the reality is that it's very dated and some of the carpets and decor are not great. Our room was spacious but so hot no Aircon and a small fan placed in the cupboard which honestly did nothing. The carpets were filthy in the room and it looked like someone had poured some sort of drinks over the chairs and that not cleaning it would be better. I would say the staff that I had interactions with were brilliant and could not fault them they were exceptional. There was a wedding on the Saturday night and the noise was horrendous loud thumping music that could be felt upstairs. This hotel is very overpriced at over £400 for 2 nights plus £18 parking then the prices at the bar which were closer to London prices they really do like to take as much as they can. Very disappointed and won't stop here again.

We stayed here for 3 nights in July. It was a trip we had booked and planned early in the year. Unfortunately for the time we were there a trade fair was going on so the grounds were completely inaccessible to guests as they were taken over by this. The whole area was fenced off and patrolled by people in high vis jackets and a large marquee seemed to cover the grounds. There was no mention of this when we booked though. The entrance to the hotel is at the back of the building so we never got to see the front that is pictured in the advertising for it. We were greeted by fire escapes and a car park. Our room was comfortable and clean enough although there was a permanent smell of sewerage in the bathroom. We were surprised that in such a large hotel there is only one restaurant and bar area. There is potential for so much more. We used the spa facilities once during our stay. Everything was clean and tidy but there is a lack of space around the pool area. Only one lift was working, out of two, and we understand it had been this way for a while. The whole feeling is one of the hotel being outdated and in need of modernisation,

Checked in and we were given a smaller room than we'd booked. When we asked if perhaps we had been given the wrong room, the receptionist tried to tell us we actually had an upgrade. Windows barely opened and were thick with black mould. A housekeeping team member came to clean but only brought glass cleaner which doesn't kill mould. Here are pics of the windows AFTER housekeeping cleaned. We were eventually given our original booking after two requests & even had to take the photographs of mould down to reception to be believed. Not a great beginning to our stay by any means.

Nestled on the 1st floor of the Snooty Fox boutique, The Wild Plum is a charming day restaurant with a stellar reputation and delightful decor featuring hanging plants and twinkling lights.
Absolutely incredible worth every single penny! I feel disappointed to read about the complaints on the pricing as I truly felt like it was worth every single penny! The parsnip hoummus was creamy as ever and the yogurt bread so fluffy and light. We all got the courgette fritters with a huge poached hen egg- I had smoked salmon with mine my friends had the Yorkshire Halloumi and an extremely generous amount was on our plate. Immaculate attention to detail on the presentation and every single bite was mouthwatering! Will definitely be coming back! 5 stars- waitress was so lovely also 💕

We came here for lunch after a trip to Burley in Wharfedale, Ilkley and Addingham in which we spent the morning house hunting. I’d seen this place on Facebook a few months ago and have been on my bucket list since. We arrived about 1.30pm on a windy Tuesday and you have to walk through the Snooty Frox shop. The Wild Plum is on the first floor up some stairs towards the side of the shop. The waiting area was busy with people waiting for a table. It’s a sign of a good place when there’s a long queue on a Tuesday afternoon. Nevertheless, as we travelled from afar, we were prepared to wait. The decor/surroundings is fresh and modern and love the teal colour on the wall. It has been tastefully decorated with had a real welcoming feel! It’s also a fab place for those Instagrammers! Plenty of photo opportunities of the surroundings! We were taken to our taken after about a 15 minute wait. The service was great and quick. We’d already looked at the menu as we waited so ordered pretty much straight away! We kept looking around at what other diners had ordered and couldn’t wait for our food to arrived! When it did come, our mouths dropped! The presentation of the food was fantastic! It was almost too good to eat! The food looked fresh and colourful. The Buddha bowl was a joy to eat. Every mouthful was a surprise! There were such variety that I didn’t want it to stop! The crispy chilli beef was so light to eat and very tasty! It came with glass/rice noodles along with fresh veg and peanuts. The curry was beautifully presented and our friend loved it!! All in all, it’s a great place if you like something different for lunch. They also serve waffles all day, alongside plenty of cakes. This is such a hidden gem! We’ll be back to try the other dishes on the menu! Service was friendly and great!!

Had the most delicious celery soup I've ever eaten today! Perfect with a tiny loaf of fresh baked walnut bread. Followed it up with a prawn salad which was also delicious and well balanced in terms of the prawn/salad/sauce ratio. My mum had an open coronation chicken sandwich with moist chicken, savoury granola, hope made pickles and chutney and a delicious lime curry sauce. Dad had venison meatballs in a Buddha bowl as he's carb free at the moment (although he did pinch the odd chip!) and really enjoyed it. Everything was beautifully presented and the service was friendly and attentive. This is a lovely family venture and ideal for a delicious lunch.

Our experience at The Crown Hotel, Harrogate for our wedding ceremony and reception was extremely disappointing. The vegetarian plates were poor quality and not as expected. We paid for illuminated "LOVE" letters which never arrived. Tables were set up incorrectly with insufficient centrepieces, failing to match our guest numbers. The DJ was more than 1.5 hours late, upsetting many guests. Everything felt rushed, and the children's evening meal was served so late that our six-year-old was forced to go to bed very late. Disturbingly, a member of staff at reception dragged our son by the arm and shouted at him for playing, which was wholly inappropriate. Additionally, local known drug addicts, housed by the council at the hotel, entered our private function and stole cards containing money from our gift table, which were later found open. Despite making an official complaint, the hotel denied any responsibility, refused to review CCTV footage, and responded with unprofessional and rude emails, denying any compensation. Furthermore, the hotel has tried to falsely suggest that some of our guests were involved with illegal substances and caused damage to the property, yet nothing was mentioned at the time; these allegations are entirely fabricated. We are incredibly disappointed and cannot recommend The Crown Hotel based on our experience.

Excellent hotel at excellent location of Herrogate. Reception staff went out of their way to help find parking for our classic car. Room was spacious and we were probably upgraded to a suite. Beds were comfortable. Room amenities were ample. Shower was modern and strong spray. Hotel may need some refurbishing for the flooring but We loved it here and can recommended it highly.

The hotel is prefect for a central location with easy walking distance to all Harrogate attractions. The rooms are clean and modernised. The breakfast was excellent beating a premier inn by a mile. Amanda who was working at breakfast when we stayed was very attentive and helpful.👏👏. Could just maybe add a new toaster machine.

Absolutely amazing place. We didn't have a room but I saw pictures from a friend that stayed after a recent event and it looked spectacular. Very friendly and likeable staff that were very attentive and professional at all times. Give it a visit.

Bettys Café Tea Rooms - Harlow Carr is a classic British tearoom and café that offers both formal afternoon teas and casual dining options. Visitors can indulge in traditional British fare, including scones with clotted cream and jam.
Dear Googlers - any visit to the Republic of Yorkshire requires a trip to the institution of Betty's. Service always extremely pleasant and staff diligent and precise. Food is excellent. The new Black Forest choux bun filled with chocolate cream and topped with cherry's and cream is a triumph. Beware though. The queue to get in starts in earnest about midday. Worth the wait though.

My husband and I are avid fans of all things Betty’s, but their fondant fancies are our favourite. So when it came to deciding on our wedding cake, their fondant fancy wedding cake was the obvious choice. We made the order by phone, and their friendly customer advisor went through all of the details slowly and carefully to ensure everything was correct. They were also really helpful, answering all of our questions and offering advice. Two days before our wedding, we collected our cake from the tea rooms at Harlow Carr. The staff there were so lovely, and were genuinely excited for us. We checked over the cake and it was perfect. On the day itself, the cake looked beautiful on its stand (which my husband had made himself), and it was absolutely delicious! We also received lots of compliments from our guests. We loved the special touch it brought to our day; this cake was a bit different, but still so elegant, and felt very personal to us. Thank you Betty’s for making our perfect wedding cake!

It was the first time I visited this traditional and famous tea house in Harrogate of Yorkshire. The atmosphere and decorations are simple but decent. The food and tea quality is excellent which gives customers authentic British taste and aroma. At the same time, you can also visit its store next to the restaurant and purchase high quality products like tea, coffee, cakes or biscuits. Highly recommend!

Luckily no queue on this day we went. Otherwise you queue at the door first come first serve. Lovely staff however not good service. My friend is lactose intolerant. Ordered the burger without cheese, all was ok. Drinks came and lovely. Burger arrived with cheese on, confirmed with waitress who said there was no cheese yet you could see it was there. It had been scraped off after cooked on. The waitress kindly took it back to which the chef sent it back out saying it had no cheese on. The waitress came back to say there was no cheese that the chef had confirmed so we lifted the bun to show a yellow cheese deposit on the sides where it had melted down. She apologised and returned with a fresh burger about 10 minutes later. My club sandwich was devine though and would highly recommend, note it doesn't come with chips though! We did leave a tip, but felt they had not upheld their usual expected excellent standards. Disappointed and wanted to voice concerns here so if anyone has any dietary requirements to be aware they do not necessarily take note.

Think it's over hyped. Scone not warm, earl grey tea not as fragrant as the one I have at home. Bit disappointed. Service is good though and nice seating.

Service was impeccable! We couldn’t put up with the queue for Betty’s in Harrogate so we come to RHS Harlow Carr instead. Nice shop to mooch around. We just had tea and cheesecake and a soup. The service is good standard! And they really silverware for serving tea. The view outside is not bad as well. We didn’t book. We just popped in. All good.

Rubins Mediterranean Restaurant and Café is a charming spot nestled in the heart of town, where vibrant flavors take center stage. This beautifully adorned café not only serves an impressive array of coffees and 37 types of tea but also offers a creative spin on traditional dishes that will tantalize your taste buds. A must-try is their pistachio pancake stacks, drizzled with roasted pistachio sauce and accompanied by fresh raspberries and a scoop of gelato.
We visited partly due to the previous reviewers, thanks! The service was friendly and welcoming. As it was fairly quiet, they were happy to chat which was nice. The food was excellent. Generous portions based on the price. The flavours were punchy, especially the cold mixed meze starter. Overall an enjoyable experience and another place we'll be happily returning to.

Absolutely amazing food and service! I had the Turkish breakfast and my mum had the Veggie breakfast. Both servings were HUGE and scrumptious. It was gorgeous sitting in the conservatory section, sheltered from the breeze with the sun shining. Felt like we were somewhere continental! Highly recommended!! (Also check out the fab taps in the Ladies!!)

We had been walking around Harrogate visiting the sites and were tired. We ended up here for a. late lunch more by chance than design. The food is full of flavour and hit the spot.

We had such a lovely time sat on the terrace outside Rubins. We had a couple of fruity refreshers which were very tasty and then the big Turkish breakfast. It was all extremely nice - the salad dressing, the sausage, and the feta in particular stood out. We had to stay a bit longer so had coffees afterwards - would highly recommend the cardamom coffee. Service was very friendly and decent pricing!

Amazing experience. The food was superb and the staff are friendly. The bill came and it was already split between the 3 of us. It was billed according to what we ordered. This is the first time I’ve seen this anywhere in the UK. We were so happy! Thank you. This restaurant is highly commendable! Will definitely come back when i’m around Harrogate♥️

Excellent service. Staff were very pleasant and polite. Unfortunately, the dish ( buttermilk chicken with pancakes) I ordered was not great. Pancakes were lovely but had way too much maple syrup. Also the chicken that came with it was not very nice. Thin slice of chicken with a thick coating. My partner did however enjoy his burger meal.
Rubyloo — Google review
The rosemary chips don't taste like rosemary, although you see dried rosemary all over them. The cheeseburger didn't taste like cows meat, but instead of merguez sausages. I either had a pork burger, not a problem for me but it's a big deal for some folks, or I had a burger done in the same grill as merguez sausage. You'd have to NEVER clean the grill to make it taste like that. Bit worrying. People serving are nice tho.

Nestled in a 17th-century building, Cedar Court Hotel is a refined establishment that provides dining, a bar, complimentary breakfast, and Wi-Fi. Situated just a short stroll away from Harrogate's popular attractions like Betty's Tea Room and the Turkish Baths, this 4-star hotel offers non-smoking rooms with modern amenities such as flat-screen TVs, high-speed Wi-Fi, and quality toiletries.
Beautiful, old, building with very clean, modern rooms. Comfortable beds, room was spotlessly clean. Surprisingly quiet too. No traffic noise and I didn't hear any noise from other guests at all. All the staff were welcoming, friendly and efficient. We ate in the restaurant for our evening meal and the food was delicious. Great breakfast too. It's also very easy to drive to and has a large car park. I would definitely stay there again.

We stayed for a couple of nights and had a small issue with the lighting outside our bedroom and after mentioning it to the team, a solution was found immediately. The two girls from reception were incredibly helpful and friendly. They came right away and took care of everything efficiently. Excellent service and such a warm attitude. Really appreciated their quick response! Thank you !

Hotel is lovely from the outside and the location is a nice short walk to the town centre. However,once inside the hotel reminded me very much of a premier inn. We stayed during a storm and we presumed there must have been a damaged roof above our room as all we could hear was banging all night which led to a very disruptive sleep. We were then hoping for a relaxed morning,yet the walls were so thin we were woken by the adjoining room toilet flushing,shower running and very early conversation. We were also suprised that we had to pay an additional charge for parking,and to open the blind to a view of a car park and a skip! Overall,we would not return to this hotel and would not recommend to others.

Fantastic 2 day stay. Hotel in beautiful grounds with plenty of parking. In a residential area within easy walk of town centre. Love an old hotel that has been modernised. Friendly helpful smartly dressed staff. Room was comfortable with all the facilities you require, including a fan. Clean and modern. We were on the back which was quiet. Breakfast had a good choice and was fresh. We had an evening meal, served in a lovely restaurant. Will definitely stay again. No complaints.

Lovely hotel. Our room was right on the top floor on the end of the corridor. It was very warm with no air con just a small fan, during a hot summers day it was ideal. Roof windows were difficult to reach. The towel warmer in the bathroom was constantly on too we couldn't figure out how to turn it off. The bed was comfy and there were plenty of pillows.
Melissa — Google review
The hotel is in a great location but the service and rooms are less than ideal. The beds are very uncomfortable and the bathroom was sinking in severely. We arrived to discover works were ongoing in the hotel and we had no warning of this at all. The works were on in the afternoon and began again at 7am in the morning waking us up. This was a relaxing get away in intent that was ruined by this. The recpetionist did not ask us how our stay was and when we told him of the works he was more excited about the new salon incoming than he was concerned about our stay. He came across quite standoffish and i felt uncomfortable addressing the issue with him. This did not feel like a 4 star hotel at all and the service and room was rather more like a three star at best. The works should have been disclosed and we should have been warned, they should have started no earlier than 9am and guests should be asked how the stay was! I would not stay here again. Disappointing as location wise it's a great area.

We have been visiting the Cedar Court Hotel for many years and we always notice some improvements every time we visit. Most recently the refurbished bedrooms which are excellent. Plus the best restaurant in Harrogate, Amber's. I have worked in the Retail Industry as a Senior Manager for over 40 years. My view is that Customer Service is of paramount importance in any hospitality or retail business. All staff at the Cedar Court Hotel are very professional, curtious and helpful. I would like to mention two members of staff in particular. Harry and Woody are very friendly, professional and kind. They both display excellent customer service skills and service with a smile. Please pass on our thanks and best wishes to them both. We will be returning soon.

Nestled in the heart of Harrogate, Truffles Café is a delightful spot that embodies the essence of a quintessential Yorkshire café. With an inviting menu featuring everything from freshly brewed coffee and delectable cakes to hearty cooked breakfasts and satisfying sandwiches, there's something for everyone. The café also offers seasonal afternoon teas that are sure to delight any visitor. Guests rave about the warm hospitality provided by the friendly staff, who go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience.
What a great find! This is a lovely little cafe not far from the railway and bus stations which sells tasty homemade food at a great price. I popped in on Saturday in need of something hot for lunch and discovered that, not only did the new menu have lots of choice, but there was also a Specials board. So many tempting dishes! I decided on the braised beef with mash and vegetables but everything looked good. Some dishes are vegan and others are free from gluten. As this was being cooked to order I had a short wait but it was worth it because the meal was excellent and it gave the opportunity to look in more detail at the menu and my surroundings. It is a smallish cafe but the space is well used; it is accessible for wheelchair users however the toilet facilities are up a few steps. The toilets also have baby changing facilities. In addition to the main menu and Specials board there was also a Takeaway board. I was very full by the end of my meal so no room for a dessert unfortunately or even a cup of tea. Lovely staff, handy location, great food! I’ll definitely be back!

What a little gem of a find, popped in for breakfast super tasty and freshly cooked to order. Good choice of drinks also available and fairly priced. We took a takeaway breakfast for my son as well so all in all we had 2 x eat-in full Breakfasts, 2 x drinks and 1 x take away breakfast for under £30 Friendly welcoming staff as well and a good choice of lunch options all fairly priced and delicious looking home baked scones and tray bakes. Will definitely be visiting again. Highly recommend

Why do Harrogate cafes charge a reasonable price for a breakfast, then add £2.50 for a pot of tea? Breakfast is then not such a reasonable price. Elsewhere they seem to include a cup of tea with the breakfast. An example is North Street Deli in Wetherby where a full breakfast is £9.50 and includes a pot of tea.

Absolutely lovely food and the service from the ladies was brilliant and welcoming, spotless everywhere you looked this was one of the ham, cheese and onion toasties i will remember for a long time such a small order from me but a lasting one to me, i will be back again to try the main menu as i bet the braised beef on the menu is to die for. Thankyou ladies keep up the great food and service

Their thoughtfulness towards me was exceptionally kind & massively appreciated, so thank you!! Your Eggs Royale was also perfect & my daughter thoroughly enjoyed her eggs, sausage, tomatoes on toast! 😀 Once again thank you, we will be back & hopefully on a happier day! X

Thank you so much to the wonderful ladies at truffles café who totally saved our life this afternoon. We are a bridal party who found ourselves locked out of our Airbnb. It was an incredibly stressful situation particularly for our lovely bride. Truffles was the first café we found and what a refuge it was for us that afternoon we The had some delicious food and drink but mostly we really really appreciated the support from the women who worked at the café who went above and beyond to help us and make us feel calm I’m very happy to recommend this café for a friendly welcome and lovely food.

The West Park Hotel is a stylish and chic boutique hotel located in the heart of Harrogate. The old Georgian coaching inn has been revamped into a contemporary venue with 25 spacious and luxurious rooms and suites. The rooms are elegantly decorated with modern colors, featuring Hypnos beds, Nespresso machines, and premium bath products. Some accommodations offer private roof terraces or balconies overlooking the Stray parkland. Guests can enjoy free Wi-Fi, an elegant bar, and a restaurant on-site.
Great visit to The West Park Hotel, slightly loud and lively on arrival so concerns about noise but could barely hear a thing from the room. The room was clean overall, nothing spectacular but at £150/night on a bank holiday weekend we wasn’t expecting too much. The bar was busy but staff seemed attentive. We decided to eat at the restaurant that was overall really good. From the starters to Chateaubriand and Sticky Toffee pudding desert everything was well cooked and presented. The restaurant itself was quite loud due to a large table and would benefit from a privacy screen from the bar itself to offer a better overall experience. The hotel was in good walking distance from parking and a multitude of bars, restaurants a places to eat. Great location, good food and overall a pleasant experience.

Very nice hotel right opposite a beautiful park but only a 10 minute walk into Harrogate. Nicely decorated, excellent breakfast and overall really good value for money. My only complaint is with parking. There is street parking opposite but its limited to 3 hours. Worked for us on this occasion but would have had issues if we were staying longer.

We had a lovely stay at The West Park Hotel for my mother-in-law's birthday. The staff were very friendly. Breakfast was great and an excellent selection of dishes. The rooms were nice and it's in a great position. Some of the systems aren't quite as organised as you'd expect for a hotel in this price bracket. Aircon wasn't working in a couple of rooms and they were very hot. We had to chase house cleaning a few times. It took a really long time for breakfast to be served on one day in particular. The hotel did resolve all of this to our satisfaction.

Served breakfast Had high expectations of enjoying a full service breakfast. Alas it fell well below my expectations. Waited 15 min for our order to be taken. 10 more minutes for my orange juice to arrive. Sealed bottle plonked on the table with a glass no offer to open or pour it for me 5min more for tea to arrive no hot water with the tea pot. 10 min later croissant and granola arrive Empty plates not removed 4 staff on duty but frequently none on the floor. Presumably in the kitchen not many customers for them to look after in there !! Time for the GM to come and have breakfast I think. But would they spot the shortcomings?
