Restaurants in Harrogate

The Tannin Level

Had a meal here with my wife the other week. We were seated in the front of restaurant in front of the bar. Very little atmosphere. We both don't drink but were told they didn't do mocktails. Food was very good but my starter of king scallops which was £14.50 had only 3 of the smallest scallops ive ever eaten so very overpriced. All other dishes were very good

Sasso

Brilliant meal at Sasso tonight. Food quality is always exceptional and tonight was no different. Please don’t try the aubergine parmagano - Inwant all for myself!!! If you haven’t already tried Sasso, you definitely should.Parking: Plenty of free on-street parking after 18:00.

Gianni's Brio Restaurant and Pizzeria

Has a lovely meal here on a wet Thursday evening in October.We had a garlic bread with mozzarella between us for starters & it certainly did not disappoint. Very garlicky & cheesy!For mains my husband had the inferno pizza which was nicely hot as expected & I had the lasagna al forno which again was delicious.Unfortunately we had no room for dessert as there was a great selection on the menu .The staff were polite, attentive & friendly & it's a shame we don't live closer so we could come back whenever we feel like a great meal. Will definitely return when back in Harrogate.Thank you

Mykonos Bar & Grill

This was a fantastic experience, the food was exceedingly tasty and fresh, the service friendly without being intrusive and the restaurant very Greek.If I lived in Harrogate, I’d be here every week!!!

Tilly Peppers

Lovely little find just a short walk from the centre of Harrogate. I ordered Eggs Benedict and my wife ordered the veggie breakfast. Both were amazing.Great staff, especially the owner,Cakes looked amazing, but we were too full maybe next time

Oliveta Harrogate

This is a great, family-run restaurant with an interesting menu based around mediterranean food. We both chose Albananian main dishes which were delicious. The lamb in particular was outstanding. Wine selection was good. Very attentive and friendly service from the owner. Not many people in on a rainy Wednesday night but the warm welcome soon made us feel at home. Thoroughly recommended.

The Malt Shovel Brearton

What an absolute gem of a place. Welcoming staff and the food was 5 Star. Will definitely be visting again as the food was superb ?Vegetarian options: Feta Cheese Tart with new potatoes and salad

Pitcher & Piano Harrogate

Friendly service from a waiter who took time to talk to us. Food was delivered quickly and tasted great. Good selection of beers etc. only comment is the lighting was a bit dim. Would definitely go back.Vegetarian options: My wife had a veg curry and it was excellent.

Taverna Harrogate

I ate here for my birthday. Unfortunately, my appetite only allowed for one course. Fortunately, it was a case of quality over quantity with the Chicken Emilio. It was rich without being overpowering, and the portion size was generous enough.

Quirky Farm Bistro Oxford Street Harrogate

What an absolutely beautiful place. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with genuine warmth. The service was great without being overbearing and the food was delicious. Will definitely be back!

Foundry Project Harrogate

I booked a surprise party for my partner 40th, the whole experience was very pleasant. Judith made the booking and arrangements very easy for me and Rhi the floor manager helped us all night long providing the food at an appropriate time, keeping the area clear of non-guests and being very friendly, and the bar manager help keep track of the tab and was very helpful. The food was absolutely delicious, and when ordering this I was offered the best package and price for my needsI would definitely recommend this to friends wanting a similar experience in Harrogate.Thank youStuart BrennanPs. Apologies if I got any of the staffs names wrong or couldn't remember you were all great.

All Bar One Harrogate

Recently visited, what a great place.the food was fantastic.the Staff put allot of effort into customer service and it shows.the cask ales are perfect.lots to choose from .if its just a snack.or a evening meal it is the place to be.i think you can even get a shot glass of smarties. Good wheel chair access. I would recommend it to everyone.

The Half Moon Inn

Stopped to eat on 24th Sept 2023. It was Sunday Carvery. The staff couldn't have been more helpful. No fuss, no bother. Food was everything we had hoped for. Delicious, plentiful and excellent value. We were in fed and out in about 20 minutes. Clearly family run. This family deserve to prosper. Thank-you for your good honesty hospitality.

Vivido Bar And Restaurant

Everything about this restaurant was wonderful. Plenty of helpful staff, very tasty food and an amazing selection of gluten free food. Cannot fault it and will definitely come here when we visit Harrogate again.

Bettys Café Tea Rooms

Outstanding experience the best hot chocolate I've ever had, went early so didn't have to queue to get in, pick the wrong time and you could have a bit of a wait. Staff are the best I've come across and contribute to your experience. Also a shop to get your treats for home.

Jesper's Bar & Kitchen

With so many wannabees springing up everywhere this is the real deal. The moment we walked through the door we felt relaxed and found the place cosy. The service was very good and the staff were attentive but not overwhelming, we even met the owner Jesper who made us feel like we were VIP's, but we still had to share him with the other patrons. The Mushroom Baklava was amazing, so many different flavours especially the soil!! and the Braised Ox Cheek, for the main, was divine. I would have loved to sample the extensive wine and cocktails available but i was driving so had an excellent non alcoholic Weiss Bier. The place was busy but it was such a friendly atmosphere. A thoroughly enjoyable evening which i will repeat.

Istanbul Turkish Bar & Grill

We have just had the most amazing evening at Istanbul. Food was delicious, staff were friendly and attentive and there atmosphere made a lovely experience for a family birthday. Thank you so much. You must try their homemade baklava!

Papas Authentic Mediterranean Cuisine

Simply wonderful. Beautiful food, lovely friendly staff and a great atmosphere. The only thing lacking for a truly authentic Greek experience was the Mediterranean sea lapping a few metres away and a few dozen over friendly wasps.We had the the mixed meat meze washed down with a bottle of retsina and it was divine.

The Fat Badger

I have been here a couple of times. Last time I was at the restaurant part had the specials. I absolutely loved it. Service is spot on. Food quality and quantity are excellent. I have 2 teens who want to eat there all the time. Totally recommend it.

TAP ON TOWER STREET

Great drinks, bar snacks and service. We enjoyed the pig in duvet, scotch egg and pizzas. Lots of choice of beer on tap, wine on offer and friendly service. Will definitely visit again next time we're in the area.

Shalimar Restaurant

Excellent food fantastic service. Party of 5 Inc 3 GF. Jamale the owner, said he would take our order and ensure the GF food was perfect, he did and it was. Really good night, attentive staff. Very busy, so got a bit noisy but good value for money. Even serve a choice of GF beers. Will definitely return.Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible.

The Drum & Monkey - Harrogate

We went with friends early this week. It had been about sixteen years since we last visited. We had the smoked salmon pate for starters, the halibut with wild mushroom sauce for mains, and lemon tart and blackcurrant ripple ice cream and a sticky toffee pudding. For dessert. The halibut was the best I have ever tasted and I have tasted and cooked a lot over many years! The starter and desserts were delicious also. I would definitely recommend the Drum and Monkey. As it is not a large restaurant it is probably best to book.

FISK Montpellier Mews

Fabulous food and service, can’t fault it apart from being hard to find the door to get in! Lol! Down the side and the restaurant is down a narrow lane at the bottom of Montpelier Hill, but well worth finding. Lovely restaurant, very smart, great service and amazing food! Shame that the only beer was the ubiquitous Pironi… otherwise a great place to enjoy a fabulous meal. Just had great seafood in Portugal but the seafood here, while different, was also fanulous

Estabulo Rodizio Bar & Grill - Harrogate

Absolutely incredible experience with wonderful food and a great vibe. It’s unlike any other place and having travelled 100 miles (derby-> harrogate) to eat here can safely say it was well worth it. The perfect date night or special occasion treat. Couldn’t recommend more!

William & Victoria

Super fast and attentive service, despite being a busy Friday evening! Very cosy and tasteful space, since we dined downstairs in the pub/bar area.We got the Early Bird Special, which was a great deal considering the quality of the food! Had some haddock arancini with truffle mayo as starter, Grilled Sea Bass as main and Sticky Toffee Pudding for dessert.

HOXTON NORTH

My daughter and myself decided not to breakfast this year's weekend visit to Harrogate, but to go out instead, we are soooooo pleased we did, it's fantastic!!!the food! the staff! So much so we booked for the next morning, we had eggs Royal the first morning, and I had the same next day but she had the classic,!! Try the Almond Croissants too we bought 2 to go, absolutely delicious!! We will definitely be back, thank youKid-friendliness: Plenty of families in, such a friendly place!!

MOJO

Cocktails and food were really good, great atmosphere too. Special thanks to Greg for making our experience as good as it was. Will definitely come back here again.

Orchid Restaurant at the Studley Hotel

What a lovely place to visit. Been a few years since my last visit and I was not disappointed. A great setting with very nice staff. Service is excellent and they give you plenty of time and don't feel rushed. As for the food it's very excellent and tasty. Good portions which is a big plus. It's very well worth a visit if in the area.

Cold Bath Brewing Co

Tried to get in a few times always busy. Managed to get in..was not disappointed brilliant service, brilliant beer at very reasonable prices.. and a great friendly atmosphere.. definitely a one for the go back to.

Christies

An unpretentious pub-sports bar. It's fairly comfortable inside, with a variety of seating. It's not that big which can make it feel cosy at times, but a bit overwhelming at busy times.There are a couple of TVs that show the main sports events.The bar staff are friendly and welcoming. There's a good selection of drinks to cater for most tastes.Wheelchair accessibility: There's a step free entrance.

The Fat birds bakery

Fat Birds bakery catered for my Dads funeral, I can’t fault the service or the food, I even made changes 2days before which were catered for no problem. All in all a very good experience and will use again if needed.

Hotel du Vin Harrogate

Visited Harrogate for the first time and stayed at Hotel Du vin. The staff were so welcoming and helpful, customer service at its best. The location of the hotel is perfect..Betty's Tea Rooms is literally a stone throw from.the hotel. We didn't eat at the hotel as we were only staying one night and wanted to eat out. We stayed in room Torres which was just the right size and very clean. We'll definitely be staying again. Thanks to all the staff who made our stay pleasurable.

Shell

Went around 9pm 08/06/23 amazing staff member (ginger lass) even after going back 3 times in the space of an hour didn’t get frustrated with seeing the same person.?

BP

Always had efficient and friendly service here. Used to call regularly at night and have a chat with Pat, who I was very sorry to hear sadly passed away recently. You need more staff like her, she was a credit to the company.

The Ugly Duckling Tearoom

We went late on a Sunday (29/10) morning with the family and had a great experience. All of the service staff were lovely and really accommodating (despite our three daughters different variations on pancakes and going out of their way to come up with a solution!). This will definitely be our go to stop when I’m Knaresborough from now on!

Harrogate Brewing Co. (Brewery & Taproom)

Great selection of beers to suit any taste, friendly staff, groovy music and a quirky location! Would recommend to any beer lover.The only let-down are the porta-loos - hopefully they'll be installing some permanent toilets before too long

North Bar

This bar is a complete gem., with 14 beers on tap and way too many cans to work through in our 5 day stay the beer selection is great. All the staff were all super warm and welcoming, and Abi the manager was everything a Northan welcome should be with an amazing knowledge and passion for her craft and the local area.They do great cocktails too!We will most definitely be back soon. x

The Claro Beagle

We stayed there as part of work and we couldn't complain to he honest The food at the evening was very nice. The beer is a bit pricey, but it is a hotel, so you'd expect that. I had to swap a room as it was very dated and very confined. but all in all it's an old building so its must be hard to upkeep and it's very nice and welcoming and the food is good.

Simpsons Fish & Chips

I’m a bit picky when it comes to fish and chips and Harrogate Fisheries is one of the best places I’ve had fish from in ages! The fish was cooked to order in a really light crispy batter! The chips were really fresh too! If I’m back in Harrogate soon, I hope they’ll be open!

Major Tom's Social

This was a great little find when visiting the area. A quirky bar with a laid back atmosphere and great pizza and beer options; even happier to find that kids eat for free on a Sunday (and their pizzas almost the same size as ours). Really good salad too.

wagamama harrogate

Great staff (Thomas we loves ya) and management (Rob we loves ya too!) who do everything they can to make you feel welcome. Food consistently good/above brand standard BUT £7.80 for less than a pint of beer???? £6 for a regular pop can size of yuppy beer (although tasty) or a not-very-nice & also expensive for 440ml ipa thing.. This is where they lose a star! Beer price rip-off is essentially the only complaint they really get here apparently. They can’t do draft on site. An actual pint of Arsesahi in Westfield London Waga is £1.60 cheaper. Essentially £8 for a bottle of Asahi cooking lager is as ridiculous as it is insulting. An own goal. So let’s finish again on the wonderful staff (Thomas and Rob and Chefs), tasty food and warm welcome and have a glass of water on the side instead. And “boo yah sucks ya Scrooge!” to the franchise owner/Beer monitor.

Bean & Bud

Superb coffee! Flat whites prepared with intricacy and care that tasted perfect. Choice of alternative milks (the soy milk was creamy, delicious and not too sweet).The staff were knowledgable and offered great recommendations.So good I’ve been three times in two days.(Only drinks were purchased).Dietary restrictions: Alternative milks

Harrogate Fisheries Fish & Chips

I’m a bit picky when it comes to fish and chips and Harrogate Fisheries is one of the best places I’ve had fish from in ages! The fish was cooked to order in a really light crispy batter! The chips were really fresh too! If I’m back in Harrogate soon, I hope they’ll be open!

Coronation Fisheries

Absolutely fantastic chippy. Best chippy in Harrogate if you're taking it home for yummy fish and chips in front of the telly. Absolutely delicious food and a friendly bunch. Quick service and good value.

Pizza Express

Excellent staff. Really helpful when eating out with small children. Nice atmosphere. Definitely recommended.Kid-friendliness: Good children menu choices. Colour crayons provided. Staff are great with kids

Dixy Chicken

I get take away from here almost every week. I love the food from here.\\nAlthough last time i got food, some chips were cold. This is the only time this has happend. So i think over all, these guys are amazing!

Spoilt

Had the cheese burger meal with a side of chicken strips. Was very nice and simplistic with high quality meat used. Desserts were amazing.. huge fan of the milkybar milkshake. Highly recommend.

Caffe Marconi

What a great little place for breakfast! Food is fab, the coffee is strong and waiters lovely and friendly. Try the bacon sandwich you won’t regret it! It does get busy though so book ahead.

Olivers Fish Shop & Restaurant

Had the gluten-free fish and chips and it was delicious. I'm usually very sensitive and had no problems at all. I'm planning on going back soon.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free

Cheungwon

My partner and I are just back from this fabulous restaurant. It was one of the most delicious chinese meals we've had for a long time. It's a buffet style restaurant but the chef cooks your meals fresh to order. You wait a bit longer for the chef to prepare your order but it's well worth the wait. We ordered two hot & sour soups, salt & pepper chicken wings, and Peking style ribs for starter. They were all phenomenally delicious! And because the chef cooks your meals to order, they come out to your table hot (temperature-wise). The main dishes were equally delicious - szechaun chicken, crispy chicken in Thai sweet chilli sauce, and king prawn (I mean "KING" prawns) with ginger & spring onions. I highly recommend this reataurant for anyone living in or visiting Harrogate.

Graveleys Of Harrogate

Almost perfect and still one of the best fish and chips in harrogate. The food was great , fish was to perfection , also bagged a fish cake which tasted amazing (not the two slabs of potato, but fish and potato mashed and mixed, was one of the best I’ve had in years). The only slight thing, and it’s personal is I prefer my chips more cooked , again nothing wrong it’s a personal preference). Will defiantly be revisiting for another treat.Parking: Difficult if you want to do a pick up , defiantly best if there’s two of you … getaway driver and the “robber” to pickup the food… lol

Starbeck Tandoori Tandoori Restaurant Take Away

Excellent hot food and service. Went on a Wednesday and pre-booked luckily as every table was taken. Table server very attentive when required but we never felt rushed. Would highly recommend.Parking: Parked immediately outside, but plenty of parking on the other side if the road.

Cafe Di Lucca

Lovely little cafe. Staff are all so lovely and friendly but professional. Food was lovely, lots of variety. And the hot chocolates are on another level! Highly recommend.Only let down were the toilets- they are seperate to the cafe and they give you a code to use.. they weren’t the cleanest!

the den

What a fantastic little bar.We stumbled across this place by accident and had a fantastic afternoon and evening live music great atmosphere pool ? sports on multiple screens ?

Charlie's Place

Absolutely amazing place. Went on a Thursday when it was Karaoke, Ruby's first night behind the bar. What a laugh we all had. Atmosphere is amazing, Charlie was Shamazing!! Brilliant night.

Baltzersen's Cafe and Coffee Shop

A more unique offering in the town and a great option for brunch. The interior dining area is spacious but fills up fast, so expect to have to wait at busy times. The service from the staff is welcoming and friendly with everyone being attentive and fast. The menu has a good range and a mix of familiar dishes as well as some more traditional Scandinavian items. Portion sizes are large and with the quality of the food represent good value. The fresh pastries are equally as large and tasty, so whether you’re wanting a full meal or a lighter breakfast you won’t be disappointed. Overall it’s a great place and for something a little different I’ll certainly be returning.

Harrogate Tap

If you like a choice of Real Ale and Interesting beers, you can't do much better than this. Lovely old interior and sunny outside space. Very handy for the station.

Trotters

"During the war!"? "If you say during the war one more time im gonna pour this cup of coffee straight over your head." "Wasn't gonna say during the war del" "that's alright then!" "During the 1939 1945 conflict." ???Chandelier! ??Fell through the serving hatch! ??Brilliant pub! Someone had a marvellous idea of keeping peoples memories alive! ??Soon as u walk in i feel like im actually on a jolly boys outing in blackpool.! ??

Horto Restaurant

The food is just fabulous! We had the tasting menu, which is six courses plus an amuse bouche, palate cleanser and petit fours. And I won't bore anyone by describing it all, just say that it was all very well thought out and executed. The only down side is the wine list is quite limited, which was a little disappointing but didn't limit our enjoyment.Service was nicely relaxed and while being quietly confident.Loved it!

Montey's

Monteys is the bar to visit! Been going here for years. Even when the other bars close for the evening their staff head to Monteys to finish the night off! An amazing Rock bar for the last nearly three decades!

Leong Hong

The Empress

Thursday night is quiz night! Fantastic atmosphere and not at all competitive, ?. Great fun. Always well attended. Do some charity fundraising quizzes too. Plus half time snacks ?.Food is great - as long as you are a carnivore. Come on guys! It's the 21st century. Vegetarian customers want to eat more than a cheese and pickle pannini for dinner, even if it's served with a salad and chips ???.Bar staff always friendly. Would be happy going in here on my own for a drink, to watch a match and not feel uncomfortable.Vegetarian options: Sadly lacking at the moment, unless you like sandwiches ?. Even if you got some veggie/vegan burgers or bangers from Aldi to offer as alternatives to your meat options it would be a start ?Dietary restrictions: They offer gf bread options, not sure about gravies, pies, etc though. Vegan options more restricted than vegetarian.

Lago di Como

The most wonderful cafe, all the food looked amazing and the food we tried was spectacular! The staff looked after us so well and were so friendly and attentive! Couldn’t rate this place high enough!

Suzetta

The TLDR: Suzetta’s is phenomenal. Long Form: Everything here is a must-have. The savory crepes are well-balanced and filling. The cappuccinos are the best in town. I’m coming back for the sweet crepes, but they look incredible. The proprietor is a gem of a human. I’m in town on work several times a year and this will be a non-negotiable stop from now on.

The Little Ale House

After a day of experiencing York, we decided to go back to the AirBnb in Harrogate and head out. We were advised by the server at the Stuzzi restaurant to go to this place. Chalk board full of beers with tables in the cellar to discuss life over! Very charming

Brio Cafe

A fabulous cafe we happened to come across. Customer service was really good service was very good and the place was spotless. The food was excellent and wasn’t expensive. We had home made minestrone soup served with Parmesan and lovely bread. The cakes looked delicious and I was tempted but full Couldn’t fault it would recommend it .

Pateley Pizza

On a busy evening, prompted by a local power cut, the service was quick and efficient - with the owners juggling cooking, taking orders, and answering the phone.Pizza and kebab were very good and well priced. Chips were OK for frozen chips.Overall, highly recommended - but be aware it's cash only.

The wharfe of harrogate

Hands down the best thing to happen to Harrogate, best fish and chips, huge portions and really decent prices to. My number one chippy to go to and I highly recommend trying it out. My friends have and they don't go anywhere else now.

The Living Room Cafe and Gallery

Had been wanting to visit this cafe after hearing so much about it. A gem of the community proving a much needed meeting place. Loads of events arranged and groups meeting … highly recommend looking up this community cafe/coffee/tea shop. Very much looking forward to the next visit.Parking: Not that many spaces.Kid-friendliness: Very welcoming for children , including some groups which meet their.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes.

The Cambridge Cafe

Just want to say a huge huge thank you to the lovely gentleman that answered the phone on Monday 2nd October for Grace. He helped us so much to find a vegan option and delivered our food too and labelled everything so nicely. Amazing service and for our first time here we'll definitely be coming back but in person this time! Thanks so much- food amazing!! Very impressed! Can't believe we've not been here before!

Brew Bar Harrogate

Great coffee but really enjoy their dark hot chocolate (milk chocolate a bit too sweet for me). BLTs are very tasty and not over mayo'd. Very friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Oregano

Great takeaway pizza, closest thing you will get to a Italian pizza experience in Harrogate. The thin based pizzas are absolutely amazing and not at all greasy especially compared to other places around Harrogate. My only pizza stop in

Little Breads

Got a gorgeous meal deal of a chicken and bacon pannini ,crisps and a drink my friend got a bacon sandwich ,food really fresh and tasty and good deal and lots of choice ?

Oatlands Mount Fisheries

Absolutely stunning fish n chips, some of the best we've had (and we live in Devon!). Highly recommended nom nom. Very reasonably priced too £15 for fish n chips twice.

Nibble & Nosh

Been in today Sunday 20th with my daughter had a gorgeous pork dinner it was so.tasty the sevice was excellent so helpful will be coming again thank u we really enough it!! .

Falafel Hut

Outstanding balance of value, and quality of food. Found myself here for a few nights and came back each night to try something new on the menu. Honestly can't say I had a single complaint.

PizzaFicio

Easily my favourite pizza takeaway in Harrogate. Great value and great pizza. I get the impression the owner has a lot of regulars, like me, not just because he's great value, but because he makes your pizza the way you want it. Easy to park outside, if you're driving. I'd you always call your order in. They can get really busy.
