Tilly Peppers in Harrogate

The food and drink served at tilly peppers is fantastic and its consistent in quality every time I go, The staff are also warm and welcoming and I highly recommend this place, thankyou for a great experience

Lovely breakfast, reasonably priced and nice friendly staff

Found this place whilst looking for somewhere new to try out. It was full when we got there and we were given menus to look at while we waited for a table to become free. I know they were busy but we were not warned how long the food was going to take to come (and it was a really long time!) My wife ordered the bacon roll with extra mushroom. Plenty of bacon and very good mushrooms. I got the homemade lasagne which was also really good. Nice big portion, definitely homebase and smothered with melted cheese on top! Unfortunately my wife's bacon roll came first, and by the time my lasagne arrived at the table she had almost finished eating. It shouldn't have been hard to make them arrive at the same time. I also had a very nice latte (would definitely come back for a coffee) Service was very nice though, but they need to work on their food arrival times, and expectation management when the kitchen is busy.

We love Tilly Peppers! Delicious freshly cooked food, especially the soul in a bowl and halloumi and avocado on toast. The team are all so friendly and helpful. The owner always remembers us and has a chat, which we really appreciate. Definitely recommend!

A warm welcome, great service and very tasty food. I had the shakshouka today which I only photographed half way through! Both eggs beautifully runny and the tomato sauce was delicious.

Beautiful cafe, lovely food using top quality ingredients and lovely, attentive staff. Great menu for kids too and very reasonable priced.

Visited for lunch while on holiday with family. Service was excellent with good communication from friendly staff. My lunch which was the halloumi with avocado was excellent. Lots of places do similar combos but this is without doubt the best I have had. Lovely dressing and full of flavour. My husband had the Caesar salad which he thought was excellent also.

The food is excellence and staff is super friendly. It’s located in very convenient street. The portion of food is super rich

Lovely Cafe was recommended by some friends to try here all the staff and especially the owner we're very friendly and attentive very reasonably priced for the quality and portion sizes we received

If you've read my other reviews you'll know I regularly leave scathing criticism of the black dishwater that is passed off as coffee in other establishments. Well not here. This place proves it is possible to make great tasting black americano in the UK. The food we had was great too. A cut above the quality of stuff the some places serve, typified as meal deal sandwiches for silly money. By contrast Tilly Peppers food is tasty, imaginative and reasonably priced. The tables are not jammed in, there's space and thanks to the shop front lots of natural light. It's so good this is cafe is to become permanent fixture on our trips to Harrogate.

Lovely cafe! A little bit out of the busy area so less hectic. Staff were extremely welcoming and attentive. Food was delicious and very reasonable prices :) would go back!

We have frequented this cafe Tilly Peppers many times almost weekly for the past 2 years. The food gets better and better. Your sure of a warm welcome ans the coffee is the best in Harrogate! Good cake selection and the the cafe is good value for money. The owner works hard to ensure all guests are looked after. The downside is now it’s becoming busy especially at peak times so get in early if you want a good table at peak periods!

Amazing food and the chef and staff members are lovely! Very accomodating to dietary restrictions and the food is excellent. I only had savoury food buttTheir cakes look amazing. I'll definitely be back and highly recommended. Thank you Tilli Peppers!

Friendly, polite and helpful staff from the moment we walked in. Swift service and quality locally sourced food. Every part of our full English was perfectly cooked and so tasty. Probably the most I’ve paid but I could not fault the service or food (apart from a common annoyance of hot drinks that come in shallow wide cups and lose their heat too quickly!). We would certainly recommend and return.

We had a great lunch here; freshly cooked and very tasty. The service was friendly and efficient. The owner a delight to talk to. It is about a 5 minute walk from the main town eateries but well worth seeking out.

Went for breakfast on Sunday with 4 others and a dog. Absolutely brilliant food, speedy service and the owner is extremely friendly and helpful, as we're all the other members of staff 😀

Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere and great staff! Can’t recommend this place more highly!

Great little independent- 1st time vist to a popular spot. Group of us ordered various idems- kids menu/scones/ soup/ sandwiches. Everything looked great. Huge scone! Great, homemade soup. Owner and staff very friendly & welcoming. Asked a member of our group for feedback on our way out. Need a hook on the loo door to hang up coats! Definitely recommend.

We had a lovely coffee and caramel shortbread today. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff and lovely coffee Thank you

My favourite venue to meet up with friends or take my boys out for lunch. The food never disappoints, it is fresh, delicious and the portion size generous. Their coffee is good too, strong yet smooth. I can't comment on the delicious looking cakes as I never quite manage to save room for one. A gem of a place with delightful staff who are cheerful and welcoming.

Popped in for tea and cake - Nice little cafe - lovely Bakewell Tart and a millionaire shortcake - and a pot of Yorkshire tea - friendly staff would recommend

Went for breakfast today after our dog walk. Super dog friendly, treats brought to the table before our food!😃 Breakfast was great full English for me, poach eggs and pancakes for my wife and daughter. Absolutely great.

They have a great selection on their menu, it was difficult to choose. Everything tasted so fresh and consideration was taken by the chef regarding ingredients for my pregnant wife's meal. The caeser salad was well proportioned, with just the right amount of anchovies. The Farmer's breakfast consisted of some delicious meats and the homemade baked beans were rich in flavour. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Even the chef/owner chatted with us and others when he was free. Definitely a stop for us if we pass by again.

Made my way here due to 5 star review. But it was disappointing. Had the warm salad which was just ok and it had an odd flavour. The coffee wasn’t that great either…

We had Salmon Poke, Slovaki and full English breakfast and all were excellent.

We checked out the best places for food on TripAdvisor before coming to Harrogate for a visit and we were not disappointed. Service and food was excellent. So good, we came back on the second day. Often care isn't taken to make sure all the food is cooked to a high level and it is common that mushrooms and tomatoes are not cooked properly.... Not here... All cooked to perfection!! The owner Joti clearly cares about his food and the service provided. He regularly came out to check to see if his customers were happy. We heard on another table that he wanted to send another poached egg out for a customer as the one on the plate had split.... He wants it perfect and his attentiveness and passion is evident. Also... The service from the two ladies was excellent and friendly and a credit to the establishment. We will come here again and again on every future trip to Harrogate!

Wow! What a find! What a gem of a place! We have just enjoyed the most delicious food experience! It sounds simple what we had: soup & sandwich and teriyaki salmon poke bowl with... A plethora of flavours have been had! I'd give it 6, 7, 8...10 stars if I could!

Great for vegetarians that are also gluten free. Friendly staff and lovely spot in Harrogate. Thank you.

Great little place of the beaten track

Visited with a friend, very busy day but only waited a few minutes for a table. The pancakes were had as a starter and were absolutely delicious with really fresh fruit! Other diners had the chicken souvlaki that smelt amazing so I had this as a main and thoroughly enjoyed every bite. My friend had the vegetarian falafel flatbread and the falafel was very good. Joti, our server, was so lovely to us and showed interest in what we did for a living and told us about himself :) the music was very entertaining and the cakes we took for afters were scrumptious. I recommend anyone and everyone drop by and try this great little place out.

I had brunch with my husband and good friends on Saturday. It was very busy and the owner explained our food would take time to be made. He was very attentive and looked after us very well. In fact, he visited all the people's tables making sure everyone was satisfied. When the waitress took our orders, she asked about dietary requirements. There was lots of vegetarians options on the menu. I had homemade courgette and leek soup with Feta cheese and the mozzarella cheese, pesto and tomato sandwich which was delicious. We all had hot drinks and cake as well. The carrot cake was very moist and had a decent cream cheese frosting. Ww were asked how our food was during our meals. I always think this is an important part of a dining experience so things can be rectified if they are not right. We all enjoyed our meals very much. The menu had lots of choice. We will definitely come back again.

Great spot. Super friendly and accommodating staff. Amazing food. Will definitely go again when in the area

Delicious food, lovely outdoor seating. The staff are so friendly and helpful it's a real delight to eat here. Well done Tillypeppers!

Visited for lunch today, lovely place, lovely staff and beautiful food - best Caesar Salad ever - would visit Harrogate again just for that - fantastic

Had a meeting there with a supplier. Great atmosphere, service, food & wifi. Joti was great 👍

Had a really nice breakfast here. Very nice staff

A wonderful place for breakfast, brunch and lunch! Best Chai Lattes in Harrogate. The staff are awesome and the owner ensures each guest is treated like his best customer!

A delightful place that takes great pride in serving delicious fresh food, portion size is generous but easy to manage as it tastes so good!

Amazing food amazing customer service 5star

lovely breakfast and a great brew (yorkshire tea)

Lovely breakfast on a bank holiday Monday. Freshly cooked excellent coffee and a nice chai latte. Polite service would recommend

Highly recommend. Quality of the food is outstanding, atmosphere and decor is lovely, and genuinely friendly and caring staff.

Nice place, run by nice people, serving nice food.

Speaking as a local this really is the best place for breakfast in Harrogate. The food and service is always fantastic and the ambience is great. Tried the homemade cakes after breakfast as well and they were delicious. I can’t recommend this place enough - try it, it’s fantastic! Neil

Wonderful food, service and atmosphere

Delicious food and coffee. Fantastic service. Manager noticed one of our eggs was overdone and produced replacement.

Booked this for my mum's 70th for me and the family. Absolutely excellent service and amazing food would highly recommend. All staff are very friendly and very willing to accommodate you. Would go back here next time we are in Harrogate. Made my mum feel really special on her birthday.

Felt obliged to a leave a review after the owner asked me to let him know what I thought of their minestrone soup... It was hot and had an interesting variety of ingredients. Not the best minestrone in the world but not the worst.

Wonderful cafe, fully deserving of all the 5 star ratings. Excellent breakfast and lovely friendly staff. We’ll definitely visit again.

Staying in Harrogate and looking for an independent cafe for Breakfast. The best breakfast we’ve had and lovely friendly and helpful staff. Give it a go you won’t be disappointed

Well-deserved position of #1 for breakfast in Harrogate! Thoroughly enjoyed it and will definitely be visiting again!

Extremely well presented and tasty food. Fabulous service. We were made to feel welcome unlike so many other places. I was especially pleased because it was my first time and I had booked for my friend’s birthday! We were not disappointed and will be back soon!

Food and atmosphere was gorgeous. A bit long to wait... Cappuccino could be better. The cappuccino was acid and the foam was too light on top when it should be thick and viscous

Totally delicious. Big portions and stunning presentation. Great atmosphere as it was full by 9.30am !! No 1 breakfast in Harrogate

Lovely food, homemade baked beans sure sign someone cares. Owner was really keen to make sure everything was good. Very proud of what he produces. Polite, friendly, fast enough but not rushed. Food looked and tasted great.

Beautiful breakfast. Amazing eggs ! Gorgeous presentation. Great menu choices with a mix n match..really great room and atmosphere.

Such a lovely place!! We went for breakfast based on all these positive reviews and were not disappointed! We were made to feel so welcome, nothing was too much trouble. Coffee and food were delicious - and the gentleman was running everything on his own with several tables of customers! Can’t recommend Tilly Peppers enough, will definitely be back!

Really lovely and friendly staff and a lovely cafe. They ran out of skimmed milk so popped out to Sainsburys to get some especially! Much appreciated 🙏🏻

Really enjoyed our visit here, delicious food and drinks

What a lovely find... Welcoming staff, food delish and freshly cooked .... Better than Betty's ... Full English and avocado on toast lovely

I suppose I should concentrate more on the food than the staff for a restaurant review but I can’t speak highly enough of Yoti and all the team at Tilly Peppers! From the minute you walk in they make you feel so welcome - with a great menu that offers lots of variety with choices for whatever your mood wants, sweet or savoury it’s on here and often homemade! My favourite place to go got breakfast or lunch in Harrogate.

Super duper breakfast. Great selection and everything was prepared with love. Especially loved the homemade baked beans. Hot drinks were also really good and the staff were very friendly. Would love to go again!

One of the top rated restaurants on Trip Advisor! Love their breakfast platter! Will come again!

What a find! Friendly..even to their early bird customers! Absolutely gorgeous breakfast, with efficient and friendly service. It was obvious how proud of their cafe they are..and so they should be! Quality ingredients and perfect size portions. Will definitely visit again the next time we visit Harrogate.

Amazing cafe with amazing staff and food!!! Had a breakfast and staff always go above and beyond and are extremely friendly!!! Always amazing each time we visit!! 👍👍

Brunch at Tilly Peppers continues to be a delight. Always great service and tasty food, featuring lots of fresh local produce. Nothing too much trouble and cooked to perfection. Gorgeous atmosphere as always and an array of sweet treats too. Highly recommend!

My parents wanted to try this place out as they kept hearing such good things, so we kindly joined them and were not disappointed! Food was beautiful, staff were kind and helpful and the lovely chef came to check we liked his food. The rumours were true, brilliant place to eat and will definitely be back. Also the egg Benedict was divine!

Lovely casual spot for a light lunch. I had the delicious soup of the day, followed by a slice of vegan chocolate cake. Staff were friendly and helpful and even wrapped up a portion of cake for my partner (tragically not present…).

Homely delicious meals, very friendly staff and the place is pet friendly too! Totally would come back to try the other breakfast plates. Really enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere.

Took my mum here for Mother’s Day lunch, everything was perfect. Thanks so much for a lovely lunch. Can’t recommend the Eggs Florentine enough!

Very nice place to sit for a coffee and light bite. Great service and very good coffee and food

Amazing breakfast!! The reviews lived up to the expectations. 30 mile trip was well worth it , will be a returning customer. The homemade baked beans have the nicest blend of tomato and herbs. Black pudding was very moist which was very enjoyable!

Just had lunch here today. I have an egg allergy and the attention to detail I had from the owner and staff was fantastic. The food was also delicious. I would highly recommend a visit.

Staff where lovely and tried to be accommodating, unfortunately they didn't have any vegan options other than milk alternatives and cake but after chatting with the owner, it seems he would like to be more accommodating and looks to make some changes.

Tilly’s is a wonderful cafe, definitely a 5 star rating, it ticks all the boxes on food, service and staff .. we always feel welcome even when I bring my kids..who love ordering the “best breakfast & hot chocolate ever” Thank you guys stay amazing !

Fantastically tasty veggie breakfast and great coffee with lovely friendly staff serving who were attentive and accommodating

In our opinion not worth the hype, reason for just the 3 stars is based on being made to feel like we had to do a review no matter what. Sausages arrived half way through breakfast & didn't look particularly appetising, coffee quite bitter & too hot to drink.

This was our second time at Tilly Peppers and to be expected everything was excellent. The owner and front of house staff were very welcoming and tailored to our needs. I had the chorizo hash and my partner had the cheesy bacon bagel, everything was cooked to perfection and packed with flavour. The coffee is nothing short of the best, the perfect drinking temperature and smooth. There are many tray bakes and cake options to choose from even including vegan and gluten free options. The brownie and rocky road are our favourites, better yet… they’re homemade. A very worthwhile trip to Tilly Peppers as always, looking forward to the next one.

Wonderful ambiance, great staff, magnificent coffee and outstanding value …… breakfasts are superb 10/10

Went for a vegetarian breakfast on my own. Halloumi egg- fried Tomato mushroom toast and beans avocado. Enjoyed my breakfast looking at cold bath road from my peaceful spot by the window. Staff were professional and checked on me. Food was timely and presented smartly. I will enjoy coming here again.

We returned to tilly peppers for a second visit after enjoying v much our first experience. We each had the farmers breakfast of which the ingredients were of high quality and cooked to perfection. Portions were more than generous and the staff were very attentive by checking on us and offering great service. Very satisfied and good value for money Highly recommend

Visited Tilly peppers with my friend yesterday as a Sunday morning and even tho it was very busy the owner who was so kind and friendly made sure to find us a nice seat by the window, much appreciated. The breakfast was delicious, you could tell it’s cooked with passion and the coffees are amazing aswell, I find myself hard to find good coffee spots in Harrogate but for me Tilly peppers is the one 10/10. Friendly and attentive staff, will be back x

Fantastic breakfast as you'll see from the photo. Really warm welcome, enthusiastic owner clearly doing really well. Food and coffee were top drawer and great value. Made us really welcome with our dog, Lola. Also gave us some really helpful tips to enjoy the rest of our day in Harrogate. We'll be back on our next trip to Harrogate

Great service and wonderful smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel. Excellent establishment to visit. Thank you!

Friendly staff and fabulous veggie breakfast. Plenty of choice on the menu. Loved it. We will be back!

What a lovely cafe. Such friendly staff who couldn’t do enough for you, very accommodating. Amazing food - the breakfast was delicious. Top quality coffee and awesome cakes. What more could you ask for!?

I went here with a friend who has multiple allergies. We had already left one cafe - before sitting down - as they had not been very supportive. Here we had a completely different experience which was so positive. The lovely man serving us made us very welcome. He clarified the allergies and was so friendly it was a real tonic. The menu is very appealing. The food itself was delicious and if we had space for pudding we would have stayed for that too! Highly recommended.

From the moment we walked in, we knew we’d be looked after. Friendly and attentive service, with an owner who really cares about your experience. Fantastic food. So difficult to decide from an extensive menu that all sounded fabulous and watching it go out, it all looked incredible too. We were not disappointed. Wish we lived nearer to revisit but when I’m back in Harrogate, this is the place to go. Thank you.

Lovely little find just a short walk from the centre of Harrogate. I ordered Eggs Benedict and my wife ordered the veggie breakfast. Both were amazing. Great staff, especially the owner, Cakes looked amazing, but we were too full maybe next time

6 friends met up for a chat and a light lunch. We all agreed the banquettes in granary bread were excellent and the soup very tasty. It was busy but not noisy so we could easily chat to each other. We will return and I recommend it.

This independent café on Cold Bath Road serves delicious helpings of brunch, cakes and pastries by charming staff who clearly aim to please. My wife had first-class eggs Benedict whilst I enjoyed a stunning bacon, Brie and cranberry granary roll. There's excellent fresh orange juice and good quality coffee. It's in the up-and-coming Harrogate district that boasts lots of new bars and award-winning restaurants. I was hugely impressed by the owner who recommended nearby Pranzo Italian which is also reviewed here.

After looking at previous reviews came for breakfast on a drizzly Monday morning whilst on a 2 night stay in Harrogate, I had the avocado with chill jam and hallumi, husband had poached eggs with added sausages, both equally delicious with everything perfectly cooked. Lovely coffee and friendly professional staff. Thank you Tilly peppers, we will be back!

My wife and I had a fantastic breakfast in this lovely little cafe. Excellent service and staff, will definitely come back.

My wife and I had breakfast here today - wow! Very tasty, loved every bit of it! Would strongly recommend this cafe 👌

We came here after trying to find somewhere that did an English breakfast. It did not disappoint! The cafe is lovely and cosy, the staff were really friendly and the service was quick. We went for the farmers breakfast which was one of the best we have had in a while. Delicious fresh produce, the mushrooms were particularly tasty!! Would definitely recommend

The food was simply delicious. Poached eggs cooked to perfection! Staff and chef couldn’t do enough. Would recommend to anyone visiting Harrogate.

Delicious breakfast, and service in particular from the owner was excellent, well worth stopping by and hope to visit again!

Breakfast was amazing, locally sourced and just really yummy. The owner was super lovely and we were made to feel really special even though we were just your normal couple having a breakfast on a Sunday morning. This is a definite must for anyone.

Went for breakfast, all food freshly made and super friendly service. Some really good options on the menu. Leaving later in the day or would have definitely returned.

The best Eggs Royal I have ever had. Fantastic food, a lovely pot of tea. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back. The owner was fantastic, such a lovely friendly guy. A lovely cafe with a lovely atmosphere.
