Reviews in Harrogate

We stopped here on a journey from the Scottish Borders to Hertfordshire. We sat outside in the sun and enjoyed a lovely lunch. Staff are very friendly and the food was tasty and generous.

A superb evening from greeting onwards. Delightfully informal and dog friendly. Lively atmosphere throughout. A great range of food and lots of it. An oasis in troubled times.

Came across this basement restaurant by chance as we were strolling round Harrogate in search of a late lunch. In short, it’s a classy Italian restaurant with smart décor, friendly staff, plenty of menu choices and an interesting wine list. What more do you want?

We had a great meal here the food and staff were both amazing. I love this place it’s friendly nice atmosphere great people which they always welcome you here and are very helpful. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves great food with a relaxing atmosphere

We were in Harrogate for a break and ate at Bistro Pierre as we use it at home in Derby. lovey food in gorgeous surroundings - though I prefer the look of our hometown one. Great food and service and handy for the shops!

Great atmosphere and fantastic food and service, very good menu. don't miss out give a try.

Very impressed with the Inn at South Stainley from start to finish. It looks lovely, the service was very attentive, the food really very good indeed especially my monkfish with dahl and prawn pakoras. Excellent pint of local Ilkely Pale Ale and a glass of Rioja. My room was immaculate with a very comfy bed. what's not to like!

Where to go on a rainy Bank Holiday weekend? On the basis that it was monsoon rain forecast for Lancashire we made a rare foray across the Pennines to Rudding Park near Harrogate. The in-laws had been earlier in the week and were singing its praises so we booked the day before and headed off on Bank Holiday Sunday. It’s a beautiful and imposing building set in a large estate and unsurprisingly is very popular for weddings. It’s also home to a couple of golf courses and attracts a lot of golf parties. The room was lovely – modern, spacious, underfloor heating in the bathroom with separate shower and rolltop bath. We snacked at lunchtime in the modern bar area then had the full a la carte evening meal in the Clocktower Restaurant. Excellent service (with many French staff), beautiful food and a well-lit room (naff restaurant lighting is one of my wife’s bugbears). You can mix and match between the set and a la carte menus and highlights included the woodpigeon kiev for starters, venison cutlet for the main and a steamed pud for dessert – plus a Yorkshire cheeseboard. A good choice of wines too. Breakfast next day in the conservatory area was nice too with views out over the grounds. They have a spa area currently but a new one is planned with a pool etc which will only add to the appeal. We’ll be back to check it out!

A perfect place to take my mother for her 75th birthday. Famous since the early 1900's for great food and service. Loved my rosti and glass of Swiss red wine. Betty's is always packed which says it all. The ultimate afternoon tea venue!

We had booked the day before for 6pm for 6 people, to be told on arrival we hadn't booked. The staff were rude and off hand. I asked if they had a table to be told they were booked until 8pm. When I pushed it and said it had been booked over 24 hours previously one staff member said they weren't in then, and the other looked at the diary and miraculously found our booking! We were seated and ignored for 15 minutes before they took out drinks order. They then took our food order and the food arrived fairly swiftly, though they began to clear the starter plates while some of us were still eating. The mains arrived at a reasonable pace following the starters. The food was generally tasteful, plentiful, filling and hot. We had several waiters/waitresses during the meal and we had a job catching anyone's eye to ask for the bill. Out of the two I prefer the Imperial, the Palace's sister restaurant which has had a facelift, round the corner on Kings Road and next time we go out we will go there out of the two. Did we leave a tip? The tip I would leave is manners cost nothing. If you can't be bothered to be polite to your customers, perhaps you are in the wrong job......

Brilliant food, service and atmosphere. Just enquiring are you open on Mother's Day. Regards Mick

I have to say that this was one of the best meals I have ever had. We went for Sunday Lunch and everything was perfect and well worth the £50 a head. Highly recommended.

Small, intimate, call it what you like but the good is the important thing and it's fabulous.Been going here regularly for a couple of years now and could never say I've been disappointed. The meat seems to be good quality and the prices very reasonable. Staff and owner lovely.Keep it up!!

This restaurant going to be truly authentic Turkish. Opening soon.........

Having recently moved my horse to the area, the Queens quickly became my new "local" for weekend lunch. Cannot fault it, fantastic food, friendly staff and all within a beautiful village. A must try :-)

Me and my friend come to Wetherspoons all most every week. But yesterday the 19th November we came and had a meal and I must say we were very disappointed as the food was cold the chips were hard, so we didn't eat it. We are not ones to complain and make a fuss so we just left. Sorry its a bad email but I thought we should let you know. Kind Regards Mrs C Colquhoun6 Collin Spring Court Birstwith Harrogate Hg33ln.
