"The name Harrogate is first attested in the 1330s as Harwegate, Harougat and Harrowgate.[8] The origin of the name is uncertain. It may derive from Old Norse hǫrgr 'a heap of stones, cairn' + gata 'street', in which case the name presumably meant 'road to the cairn'.[9] Another possibility is that the name means "the way to Harlow". The form Harlowgate is known from 1518,[10] and apparently in the court rolls of Edward II.[11]"
"Yorkshire or the County of York was so named as it is the shire (administrative area or county) of the city of York or York's Shire. "York" comes from the Viking name for the city, Jórvík. The word "Shire" is either from the Old Norse word skyr or from Old Englishscir meaning share, care or official charge.[12] The "shire" suffix is locally pronounced /-ʃə/ "shuh", or occasionally /-ʃiə/, a homophone of "sheer".[13]"
"Yet another establishment found within Micklegate, Partisan is a trendy and independent coffee shop, which transforms into a restaurant in the evening. The menu’s diverse, and changes every week – as a result, it’s difficult to make a solid recommendation on which dish to choose, however, the principles at Partisan are clear – they value seasonality, allow the ingredients to do the talking and provide a relaxed, indulgent experience for diners. They were this year highlighted as one of the best restaurants in York by the Good Food Guide, which described “This distinctive arrival on blossoming Micklegate is principally a daytime café with a rustic ambience."
"Just down the street from The Lawrance on Micklegate, you’ll find Partisan, an independent family run café and restaurant. Supporting local suppliers and independent producers, Partisan cooks everything to order using fresh ingredients for their rustic, modern British menu. They serve a variety of dishes and work hard to cater to vegans and vegetarians with inventive dishes."
"Very popular with the locals which is always a good sign and new entry in the Good Food Guide 2019. Open for evening meals on Thursday, Friday and Saturday and also great for breakfast, lunch and afternoon teas and excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans.www.partisanuk.com/"
"Brew and Brownie was a place that I wanted to visit in York for the longest time, but every time we went passed it, there were queues out of the door and down the street!. Thankfully, one day last spring, Matt and I managed to grab a table and even though I was recovering from just having my tonsils removed, I was determined to make the most out of our visit there!. Brew and Brownie offer an incredible breakfast/brunch menu including everything from a smorgasbord of egg dishes, avocado dishes and plenty of tasty sandwiches."
"They always have a great selection of cakes, brownies and pastries too. Beautiful ambience, excellent food & delicious cakes. The wonderful staff provides a first class service."

"While some people prefer Chinese restaurants that have authentic Chinese flavours, others prefer a takeaway that has adapted dishes to Western tastes. If this applies to you, then the Home Chinese Restaurant is a good takeaway option. There are also some unusual dishes on the menu that you will not typically see on Chinese takeaway menus."
"A great mix of western taste popular Chinese food and also real Chinese authenticity," said one recent reviewer. "The food quality is one of the best in Leeds.". Just be aware that there may be some more "unusual" dishes that you wouldn't expect to find at your local Chinese."
"If you want your food to arrive quickly, then Wonder Food is one of Harrogate’s best Chinese takeaways. Due to the food being delivered so fast, the food always tastes hot and fresh. Wonder Food has also received praise for its generous portion sizes."
