Orchid Restaurant at the Studley Hotel in Harrogate

Our number one stop for Asian food in Harrogate.

Really tasty food, all courses were great, as was the service and ambience.

We had a wonderful evening .The food and atmosphere was amazing with a wide variety of authentic dishes. Can’t wait to return.

Lovely atmosphere, delicious food, nice selection, great service, staff very attentive. Didn’t rush you through your meal, very relaxing time.

Had a fantastic meal at the Orchid on a buzzing Saturday evening for my wife's 50th birthday. Service and food were excellent, and a special touch at the end of the evening, a huge slab of beautiful chocolate gateaux birthday cake. Couldn't have asked for a better evening. Top class!

Took advantage of the early bird (5/6pm) taster menu which was excellent. Amazing food and service. Will visit again if in Harrogate

The food is delicious! I highly recommend the salt and pepper squid, king prawns tempura and especially the weeping tiger (sirloin grilled with Thai spicy sauce). You must try guys! The staff are lovely and accommodating!

We had an excellent food and service experienced for my pre birthday celebration. We used the private dining area. The food is some of the best I have tasted it was beyond delicious and the staff were incredible. Food price is not that bad and we ejoyed it and the location is great u can just walk to town if you wanna see more of harrogate bars,shops and more..😀

Easy booking and confirmation online. We had the £23 ahead taster, lunch menu which is a choice of 3 mains, 1 side, 1 pudding. We drank Singapore Sling cocktail. The food is really delicious, well cooked and presented and the portions reasonable. The cocktail was nice and the staff are friendly and professional. The ambience is lovely. This restaurant is defiantly worth a visit.

Very good. Starters short on taste, mains excellent. Service tried hard but needs polishing. Becoming a regular customer. Recommended

Excellent service and food was superb. I had crispy prawns and the accompanying sauce was delicious. For main course I had red curry with duck which again was very tasty. I enjoyed a Singapore sling and thought the restaurant offered excellent value for money. It is a great find of a place and I would return when i next visit Harrogate

Came here for our wedding anniversary meal and was absolutely amazing. We had never been before and had been highly recommend by family and friends. We were not disappointed. The resturant was beautiful and the decor lovely. Our meals were amazing and tasted delicious I had a Thai curry and noodles and hubby said his meal was amazing . The service was amazing too. We will definitely be back. Thank you .

Was expecting something good from all the positive reviews and recommendations. The food was below average and the ambience did not exist. No one did anything wrong, it was just the most average asian meal I've had in years. We'd heard good recommendations from people who had been a couple years back, so I wonder whether the restaurant is living off their previous reputation. There are much better asian restaurants in Harrogate that have taken over it and I'd spend my money at.

Wonderful. Fresh./ plates nice and hot.food really really good and tasty.portion size excellent. Looking forward to going back again.

Booked table for 5pm, arrived and was sat near the service door even though the restaurant was empty, then we were told to vacate the table 7pm (very rude) we were then entertained with listening to chaos in kitchen and two waitresses whispering and giggling. I asked for an iced tea and got a coconut mohito. The nerve was when the bill showed a service charge which I immediately asked for this to be removed. Will never return.

This was my wife's selection and I must admit to being a bit wary, with it being connected to a hotel, as often that can mean the lowest common denominator. But it was brilliant. From start to finish (we had three courses) the service, food, and drink could not be faulted. And it was not that expensive. The portion sizes were, if anything on the large side. But, interestingly, there is an option to share a number of dishes where the portion size is about 50% bigger than the standard size. Given that my wife and I have similar tastes, this is definitely a thought for next time. As it was, we were spoilt for choice across all three courses.

Food is very good, super fresh and great flavours. There is a nice atmosphere and good staff, attentive without feeling rushed. Not cheap but worth the money. Highly recommended

What an absolute gem in a gorgeous location. The food is to die for and the service was impeccable. We will definitely return many times.

This is by far the best asian cuisine restaurant in Yorkshire. Top tier, amazing quality and fresh ingredients culminate in incredible dishes, every time. We have never had a bad meal here, or even a dish we didn’t absolutely love. We are so confident that the orchid produces superb food that we usually order something new every time we go. The staff are friendly, efficient and very knowledgeable about the food they serve. Please try this next time you’re in Harrogate, you won’t be disappointed

Had a wonderful lunch here with a group of friends. We dined from the lunch menu which was reasonably priced. The food was cooked fresh and delicious, everyone enjoyed it, it was a wonderful treat. All staff were friendly and attentive. We were sat at a lovely spacious, round window table. Will definitely be back.

Gorgeous spot - whether dining indoors or outside. Friendly and attentive staff. Lovely atmosphere. Delicious selection of wonderful Asian foods. Generous portions. Sumptuously delicious. Beautifully presented.

We had vouchers for here as A present. We have been before so knew we had to book. Well. It was just wonderful. The food served hot and in good time as you get the table for 2 hours. The staff were friendly and polite. Not a cheap eat but beautiful food. A must visit place. Steve B.😀.

Amazing food, always great service!

Excellent lovely food the portions though sub standard for price paid I'd rather not have ordered or gone else we're. Especially with price of the room we paid.... I'll not be returning to stay.

Best fusion restaurant in Harrogate always worth a visit. Now totally refurbished and as good as ever.

Lovely food, ambience however our wedding anniversary meal totally ruined by waitress following us out of restaurant and asking us if we had paid! We asked for bill and another waitress came and took payment then we left. Felt totally violated. Manager and other staff I spoke to didn't see a problem and this has left a very bad taste in my mouth. Have never experienced this before! Irony is that booking was secured with a card. Restaurant didn't seem to understand the issue and why I was so upset. Very bad end to what would have been a lovely evening.

Foods are always good. SEA style.

Excellent as always, but you need to bring back the chocolate spring rolls

Food as always amazing (Best place to eat in Harrogate) love the new Decor and the staff attentive without being intrusive as always.

DELIVEROO-do not bother Unfortunately ordered a lot of food from this restaurant and Deliveroo arrived with half. Messaged on the app and they refunded the amount fairly quick. I said I would have preffered the food. They then decided to cancel the refund and send me the food an hour later. Everyone was in bed. Kids all upset. Wife fuming. Thanks a lot

Excellent meal at the orchid last night, we ate in the old private dining area which has been renovated with multiple tables, excellent food & drink as always, recommend the soft shell crab & weeping tiger. The service was flawless, very attentive & knowledgeable team. 5 stars! 🌟

Great food , beautiful restaurant with very friendly staff.

Food and service was outstanding, as on previous visits. Some refurbishment ongoing so we were all camped into a small space, but can't be helped. Well done for keeping up outstanding service.

Absolutely beautiful food, highly recommend and will defiantly be back.

Amazing experience. Lovely staff. We were looked after very well and food was fantastic! Our first time and won't be the last...

Dined here with the family and everyone enjoyed it. Great variety of dishes. Will be back again for special occasions!

The food was amazing, great service from our waiter - this reminds me of the Orchid of old! Can't wait to return

I recently visited the Orchid, and despite the food being amazing, the staff there were incredibly rude and disrespectful. The atmosphere was incredibly warm, stuffy loud, i do not recommend this restaurant.

Truly awesome meal. We took our daughter here for her 18th with friends. The entire meal, service and staff were wonderful. Try the set meals, great selection!

Wouldn’t recommend. Observed owner be aggressive to another table and completely ruined it

Witnessed the owner being verbally abusive and aggressive to a table of diners who hadn’t displayed any aggressive behaviour themselves. From what we could hear, the table of people were late to their reservation, but that did not justify the behaviour they received from the owner. Shocking. We won’t be returning after seeing this, which is a shame. I cannot stand bullies.

I recently dined at The Orchid Hotel in Harrogate and my experience far exceeded my expectations. The warm and inviting atmosphere from the moment I walked in immediately set the tone for an enjoyable evening. Now, onto the food - wow! The dishes at The Orchid Hotel are absolutely fantastic. I can't recommend the Salt & Chilli Squid enough, as it had the perfect combination of crispy texture and delightful flavours. The Pork Tonkatsu, which I was told was a family recipe, was also a standout with its tender pork and flavourful sauce, creating a truly memorable dish. The Crispy Lemon Chicken stole the show for me. It was hands down the best I've ever tasted. The chicken was perfectly cooked with a crispy coating and a refreshing zing of lemon. Aside from the incredible food, I was impressed by the passion and dedication of the new owner. Their enthusiasm for pan-Asian cuisine shines through in every aspect of the dining experience. The service at The Orchid Hotel was equally noteworthy. The staff were attentive, speedy, and genuinely caring. It was evident that they all share a passion for their work, which added to the overall enjoyment of the evening. Whether you're a fan of pan-Asian cuisine or simply looking for an exceptional dining experience, I highly recommend visiting The Orchid Hotel in Harrogate.

We came here last night for a birthday celebration in the private room. It was amazing! The room was lovely, the food was the best Asian food I have ever had and the service was incredible. We got both of the set menus between 9 of us and we were so full we couldn't finish it! Thank you to our amazing waiter (we didn't get your name but you made the night perfect for us!!)

Had a set menu. Good food. Would go again.

We had a lovely unexpected trip to this fabulous restaurant, the service was exceptional from the moment we walked in to a very busy Saturday evening without a reservation. The recommendations of the food were spot on & the food was delicious. We had a cocktail & a negroni & again brilliant & very well presented. The service was polite, efficient & very friendly & proactive, we will definitely come back next time we are in Harrogate

A truly great restaurant! 👍 The food's amazing, staff are lovely , professional and very attentive! Superb cocktails too 🍸

Amazing - again. Fabulous food and excellent service.

Defininitely the best Asian food in Harrogate

Food was stunning! I had starter and main from the specials menu, can't enthuse enough about how amazing they both were.

Just a word sums up this place, wow.,!!!!! Great tasty food and aside variety of dishes available so the taste buds will be watering. Pleasent surrounding to have your meal. The staff are very helpful and polite

The Orchid has amazing food, delicious Asian cuisine, it went off a bit after the pandemic, but it's definitely got its better chefs back behind the stove, great food, if you can afford it, £350 for 6 people with no booze

Food was great, service was good even though was busy. Very nice place to go and eat

The food was great, although serving for 4 people from the set meal, the starters especially, were too small. 6 individual prawns and 6 pieces of pork cannot really be shared between 4. If the starter was not from the set meal would I have been served One prawn? The meal was booked to our room, which we were expecting a discount as the website mentioned - due to staying at the hotel. I was told on check out that we had not booked it in the correct way to obtain their discount, and also discovered the £25 service charge for the meal had been added without asking and was now non-negotiable. Very lovely food and waiting staff, ruined by management policy. A little customer service goes a long way! (and would have stopped narky reviews!)

I have been here many times the service is fantastic, the wait Staff kind helpful, and professional great bar staff. The atmosphere is buzzing, people do come from all over UK. and celebrate birthdays, etc..Food is excellent varied menu. 5 stars! Excellent! Thank you C Keller

Lovely food and reasonably priced

Unbelievable food. Great choice and everything brought to the table was excellent Staff were lovely and helpful

I was blown away today at the Orchid. What a wonderful experience. Celebrating a friends birthday. The service was excellent, thank you Nicci. The food was amazing, tasty delicious, the portion size is quite incredible. A great atmosphere. Thank you for the birthday cake and candle, it was a really nice touch. Highly recommended. I will be returning very soon x

An imaginative and tasty fusion menu, well cooked with friendly responsive service.

Really nice evening with friends great place to enjoy good company.

Visited last week and food was excellent, definitely will be going back the next time we are Harrogate

Superb thai restaurant. Try the Sea Bass its the best I've eaten.

Really tasty dishes,extremely helpful waitress who made sure we ordered the right amount and good service. Lots of food.

I live a few hundred feet from the orchid and have been going for years, never had a bad experience which is rare for any restaurant, too marks, never disappointed

The food here is amazing. I have never had a bad meal. The quality and service is outstanding.

Amazing food service and atmosphere staff very welcoming and accommodating Outstanding service

Had an excellent meal here with my wife and 2 children. The food was excellent. We picked an afternoon set meal which was excellent value and great quality. Even better there was good choice in there for the kids as well. Would definitely go back

Absolutely fabulous restaurant great food very busy great atmosphere

Fantastic food experience and staff

Reasonable service and food unfortunately cut short by a curt request for us to pay and leave at 7:50 because the table was needed. When we booked we were told the table was ours until 8:30. A good meal spoilt

Wonderful fusion food. Chinese. Thai, Indonesian

I had a private party there a couple of years ago in The Buddha room. It was a memorable event, nice staff great food.

Always excellent food..Great service..lovely place to eat...

Lovely Thai food and friendly service. If anything the food arrived a bit too quickly which made our meal feel a little rushed but it did taste great.

Great menu and attentive friendly staff, lovely meal all round.

Great service and tasty food. The wait staff were really attentive and took orders quickly. The food arrived promptly and tasted fantastic. The only loss of a star was when I ordered a cafetière coffee there must have been too much ground coffee in there as I couldn’t press the plunger down and it sprayed out onto my arm. Luckily there was not too much of a burn from it. Other than that I highly recommend a meal here.

Parfait, très bon et prix raisonnable

Great food and excellent service - really do recommend based on my experiences (I go regularly)

Some of them were very tasty and friendly staffs 👍

Great food, great service, not much more to add really! If you're in Harrogate and like Asian food then this is well worth a try.

High quality SE Asian cuisine, with great service and nice atmosphere. We had the bang bang chicken, chicken satay and the prawns for starter. All excellent, the bang bang chicken was a recommendation and it did not disappoint. For mains we had the weeping tiger steak (it’s one of the hottest dishes) but you can dial down the heat as everything is made to order, chicken Thai green curry and the kung po chicken. Would recommend everything we had!

Absolutely beautiful food. Very tasty and a varied menu, with Thai Singapore Hong Kong and other Asian food options. Even have desserts too. Would eat there 8 times a week no problem. ( I like my food lol ) Service was good and nice surroundings.

We were sat in the function room to the side which is a very good addition to the restaurant! Sweet and sour pork was beautiful and the taster menu that others got in the party was by all accounts very good as well! Toilets are upstairs, which is accessible by lift, but there is a step that some with disabilities would struggle to use.

Food it’s fantastic and it’s a good service

What can I say, if the Danish beer company did Thai restaurants then this place would be it...

Every mouthful of the starter and main course were delicious. Fantastic meal and a lovely way to spend a special birthday

The food is out of this world good!

Amazing food you can't visit Harrogate without trying this place

we went there with friends, the food was fantastic

Couldn't ask for more... always brilliant

Just lovely to sit out and enjoy great food

Nice decor and staff. Food is hit and miss. The Tofu starter and veg spring rolls were delicious but the prawns starter was bland. The main course was disappointing. We were expecting sichuan chillies with the seven jewels and after asking 3 times we just got normal chillies. We gave up after the 3rd time.

Good food and friendly staff. Menu changed since we were last there but quality of food was good.

We had a set menu to celebrate a birthday. We used the private dining area. The food is some of the best I have tasted it was beyond delicious and the staff were incredible. It is not cheap but well worth the money.

Perhaps the best Szechuan chicken I've ever had. Wonderful meal.

Fantastic dinner tonight service excellent 👍

Superb food, good atmosphere and attentive staff. Minor points but for information they automatically add gratuity to the bill and don't accept American Express.

Outstanding food. Each plate was faultless. The tasting menu is fantastic value, you get plenty and get to try things you may not usually order. Without hesitation we will return here, cannot recommend enough.

Lovely food but don't be late! They shift you off the table quick but would definitely go again

This is one of the most enjoyable meals I’ve had in a while and if you’re a fan of Asian cuisine then it’s a must visit. The atmosphere is brilliant and the decor really cosy. Staff greeted very professionally when we arrived and it was nice for the table to be large and laid out well. The menu has a great range of items with good descriptions for each dish. The food arrived in good time, was presented well, but best of all were the flavours - everything we tried was super delicious and was cooked perfectly. Eyes were certainly bigger than bellies here, and there was no need to order as many sides as we did given the size of the portions, particularly the rice bowls! Drinks menu is equally as extensive and the prices not unreasonable given the setting. Overall this is a real favourite of mine in the town and I cannot wait to return!
