Harrogate's Top 10 Independent Eats
"‘Savoury, sweet and everything in between’ profess Crepe Affaire, and they’re not wrong. Based on the second floor of Trinity Leeds, this is a French restaurant centred around the honest pancake, whether you want it with lemon and sugar, Grand Marnier cognac, chicken and tarragon, feta and hummus, or even an all day breakfast. They also serve up smothered waffles, and oodles of ice cream if that’s your bag."
"Let’s face it, it is always a good time for ice cream, but the arrival of spring is just the perfect excuse. Located in Victoria Gate, Amorino is definitely one of the best places for ice cream in Leeds. Chocolate sorbet, blueberry cheesecake, tiramisu … A nice variety of flavours coming in rose-shaped cones."
"This authentic Italian gelato spot is famous in Leeds and for good reason. Scoops come served in a chocolate cone, with gelato presented in the shape of a flower and the option to add on macarons. Find flavours like Banana del Brasile and Dulce de Leche here alongside more traditional choices."
"Working hours: From 01:00 PM to 01:00 AM(Hours or availability may differ due to COVID-19). Address: 10 Summerville Road - BD7 1PX. Delivery:FREE (Collection & Delivery )"
"Fliirt is a contemporary dessert Parlour which serves fabulous gelatos and frozen yoghurts. This dessert paradise has Yummy options for everyone, whether you want to consume your weekly allowance of sugar in one sitting or if you want to keep the calorie count low. For the naughty kids there are freshly made Waffles, hot and gooey cookie dough, joyful Sundaes, scrumptious Cakes, creamy Gelato, rich Milkshakes, then there’s the guilt-free (until you add the toppings) Frozen Yogurt which can be topped with unlimited toppings from the selection of over 40 toppings, which includes fresh cut fruit and masses of sweets."
"This Grade I listed Georgian church was nearly lost in the 1950s, but was saved when church officials decided that it was a building of historical and architectural importance. While it’s still a place of worship, Holy Trinity Church is also a lively community space and they put on all manner of events for you to enjoy, including art exhibitions, vintage fairs and live music – the acoustics are fantastic. Holy Trinity Church, Boar Lane, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS1 6HW."
"Rarely does one come across a church with so much personality. The 15th century building, hidden away from the hustle and bustle of the town, has a marvellous architectural design. The Goodramgatearea comprises of some of York’s oldest structures."
"Multi-tasking is something The Wardrobe does very well, but that may mean that you don’t think of it as a club. With a bar and restaurant upstairs, and a host of gigs lined up throughout the month, you’d be forgiven for overlooking their club nights – but they’re there for all to enjoy. They have the weekly Go Nuts for Donuts every Thursday, while now and again The Wardrobe plays host to Brighton Beach."
"If spending your evening sat down at a table isn’t really your vibe, then head down to Soul Kitchen for eating, drinking and dancing. The menu is Deep South, Caribbean and Creole cuisine so be prepared for an explosion of flavour and a delicious array of dishes. Soul Kitchen is the place to get drunk and be merry as Wardrobe has regular live music."
"Expect to choose from a variety of delicious brunch dishes, and in terms of drinks, your options to choose from are the classic prosecco, Bloody Mary, Aperol Spritz or pints of Coors. Bottomless brunch runs until 4 pm, but fear not, because after 4 pm the bottomless party menu kicks in. If you choose the bottomless party option, you’ll be paying a little more at £30.95pp."
"Manahatta do their pancakes a little bit differently, so if you want to try something new this is the place to go. If you like them sweet, you can top yours with a mix of Nutella, toasted hazelnuts and cream. But they do savoury pancakes too – the High Line gets you three buttermilk pancakes with fried chicken, bacon and maple syrup."
"Manahatta is a glitzy addition to our roster of cool and quirky bars in Leeds. Defined by its plush decor and New York-inspired tipples, the Merrion Street hideaway's not only providing some of the most unique drinks in the city, but it's doing it in a fun and frivolous fashion, all night long."
"It has five different spaces on offer to guests, one of which is their incredible, and lesser-known, rooftop terrace. The terrace also stays open until 4 am, making it the perfect place to spend the early hours of the morning after a heavy night drinking. The bar on the terrace is fairground-themed, too, and you have to access it via a funky potting shed."
