"We were recommended this place. So glad we were. Gorgeous local little restaurant. The food was stunning! Best meal we've had out in a while. Really friendly staff. Service was quick. Rooms and intimate and small. We had 3 courses and tried Turkish coffee and liqueur. Bill was reasonably for good food. Would try and visit again!"

"It is a real shame that I'm not a coffee drinker as the reviews here all appear to praise the coffee at this place. For my part, I was looking for a quick bite prior to attending a conference at the convention centre nearby. I popped in on the off chance and saw bagels on the menu, which was ideal. I found a stool at the wall counter and was served pretty quickly with a fresh toasted bagel with jam and butter. Although this place is fairly small, it began to fill up so I couldn't stay long. It is clearly popular, so definitely worth a visit if you're in the area."

"We booked a table for valentines day and on arrival we were greeted nicely and shown the valentines specials and to our table. It is a small place but was very busy, a great atmosphere. We were given menus and a dishes deal for menu, so we went for that as there was good selection. The food was delicious, the wine was easy drinking, and the service was top notch. When we got the bill the deal was not added as a reduction as expected, and when asked about it the server said that menu was a lunchtime menu. Fair enough, it was written in small print on the menu so we paid full price for each dish. I'd still say it was worth the money, and I suppose it was our mistake for not reading the menus with more detail. However why would you give dinner customers a lunch menu if it was not on offer. We felt a bit swindled but hey, it was still worth it and everything was great! We will be coming here again!"

"Harrogate. What can I say. People here will put up with the average and pay a lot for it too. Well, you don't have to now. Nothing mind-blowing happening here but the pizza is adequate and the price is better than anywhere else so why bother buying a big pile from Bambino's whilst fighting off the drinks when you can have a relatively civilised conversation and a pizza that doesn't taste like shoe. Well done."

"I recently visited an independent café on Cold Bath Road that serves delightful brunch, cakes, and pastries. The staff were charming and clearly focused on providing excellent service. My wife ordered the eggs Benedict, which she described as first-class, while I opted for a bacon, Brie, and cranberry granary roll that was simply stunning. The café also offers excellent fresh orange juice and high-quality coffee. Located in the up-and-coming Harrogate district, there are plenty of new bars and award-winning restaurants to explore. I was particularly impressed by the owner, who recommended the nearby Pranzo Italian restaurant, which I also had the pleasure of trying."
