If you're after great food, top-notch drinks, and a relaxed, creative vibe, this independent café, beer bar, and pizzeria in Harrogate ticks all the boxes. Known for their famous stone-baked pizzas, made fresh and cooked in a traditional pizza oven, this spot is a must-visit for pizza lovers.

They also specialise in craft beer and real ale, with a strong focus on supporting local Yorkshire breweries, and serve award-winning tea and coffee for those after something a little softer.

With a passion for food, drink, music, and art, this laid-back hangout offers more than just a meal—it’s a place to unwind, connect, and be entertained. With its ever-changing selection of quality food and drink, it’s like a youth club for grown-ups—and a brilliant place to spend an afternoon or evening in Harrogate.
