Papa's in Harrogate

Booked for this Friday 25/10/19 told they are now closed. Always felt they were playing at it trying to run Harrogate as well . Can someone please open a restaurant in Ripon that is not Italian!

Visited on a Friday evening with 3 adults and 2 children, we all ordered different things and all of the food was really tasty and good portion sizes. The chicken wings went down a treat with the children. Lovely bottle of red wine too and not overpriced.

We have been here several times and it's never disappointed up until now, service I don't know where to start, lacks massively, new staff that quite clearly need some training, the food however is absolutely lovely, I really hope this was a one off as you have a beautiful restaurant, a suggestion may I offer is get some greek people in that's what makes it, we've been before and the owner was there he makes that place, just a shame about the current staff,the manageress has poor people skills !!

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Chose several dips with pitta bread for starters which we really enjoyed. Would advise booking especially for a Saturday evening as the restaurant soon filled up.

We visited on a wet Tuesday evening after a film at the excellent Curzon Cinéma. The venue is ideally placed close by and the lighting,atmosphere and ambience are warm and inviting.The menu is moderately priced,varied and different[A Greek theme.] My lamb kebabs were succulent,tasty and cooked to perfection-my wife’s meal was also good.This is backed up a well chosen,keenly priced wine list and friendly attentive service from the manageress. This is an excellent addition to the Ripon dining scène,owned by a convivial,charasamatic Greek.Sadly we were the only diners!?...Come on Riponians!.. We need to support our local struggling traders if we want to build the local economy and make the city prosper.

We ate a collection of Tapas style foods. The presentation was very poor indeed with unimaginative table wear and basic culinary aplomb. Some of the foods were delightfully flavoursome such as the goats cheese wrapped in filo, sesame seeds and honey but it didn’t make up for some dried out chicken wings that were poorly spiced and meatballs in a tomato purée. The service was attentive, the G&T’s perfectly fine but again lacking finesse and the final bill of Tapas for two close to £70 seemed weirdly expensive for very little.

Really pleased to have another excellent restaurant in Ripon. Well worth a visit all the food we had was very tasty and well thought through. Well done Papas
