The best restaurants in Pannal Harrogate Yorkshire and The Humber

We stopped here on our walk from Pateley Bridge to Ripley for a much-needed coffee and sit down. It turned out to be an excellent community shop and cafe. Well stocked, lovely coffee (and Brownie) and very pleasant staff.

Please reopen soon! We miss your delightful restaurant, and travel to Harrogate especially! Can't fault anything at this restaurant and keep checking socials to see where/when you will be relocating. Any info yet please?

Some of the best fish and chips I've ever had, freshly cooked to order,

Hello We had breakfast at crimple earlier this week and it was just devine, the full English is the one to go for. Great food, Great staff, Great Location, Great parking what's not to like Paul

I visited for the Mother’s Day, afternoon tea experience, on Sunday (30th 2025). This was a pre-paid experience, including a glass of Prosecco on arrival (£40 pp, which is on par with Betty’s of Harrogate prices). Held in the private dining setting, The Barrows was lovely. The young woman who came to greet us was warm and friendly, but on her own. With no one else serving, it was very apparent that she was under pressure. There were 8 tables (some with 4 people on), all seated at same time. She did her best, but there was no time for niceties. She served the tea and coffee in hot jugs, with no choice of a specialty coffee, like americano, cappuccino, and no tea pots, for a proper cup of tea. Really poor for the price we had paid!. Another girl later appeared, to help bring out the sandwich/cake bird cages. This was put down in-front of us, with a quick run down on just the sandwiches, (nothing about the miniature, 2cm width cake bites) in a very rushed and quiet voice, which my mum couldn’t hear. She then rushed off to serve the next table. No offer of any more drinks, or anything that we might have needed. The food was ‘OK’, some of the sandwiches lacked taste. Overall a poor experience which came down to poor management decisions (with staffing levels) charging drastically, inflated prices, for a poor quality experience.

First ever visit here en-route to Harrogate. Upon arrival at the pub, the exterior isn't overly pretty, but the phrase "don't judge a book by its cover" was swept this away upon entering. We were greeted by 2 very welcoming staff members, the very lovely lady from New York and the young gentlemen. Our order of 2 x roast beef lunches and a chicken schnitzel were received quite promptly. All meals were plentiful, nice and hot and tasty. A very pleasant lunch.

We recently used The Barrows Bistro to hold a Birthday Party and I was extremely impressed. I wanted somewhere a bit different to the normal Hotel or pub scenario and I was not disappointed! The service was excellent and the food was very good indeed. The surroundings made the event feel very special and I found it reasonably priced. I would highly recommend this as a venue for those special occasions

Very limited stock of anything vegan and consistently poor and rude customer service.

Food was an hour late , cold and missing ingredients. When I asked a waiter about the missing cheese from My Philicheese Steak sandwich he shrugged and said ‘it’s not my fault’ . Our waitress was surley from the start - possibly because the restaurant is so awful she must have been having a rubbish time. We received our drinks straight away and my father in law kept his tea to go with his food . Unfortunately, it was stone cold after the hour’s wait . 3 out of 4 of us ordered the Philicheese steak sandwiches and after waiting an hour for it , the steak was cold and there was no cheese. When we complained we were brought a cold slice of smoked cheese - when I said what about the other 2 people they almost ‘threw’ down a plate of 5 slices of this cheese. We pointed out that it was cold and should be ‘melted’ on the sandwich and also the wrong cheese entirely (I cannot stand smoked cheese and would never order anything with it in). The staff, including the manager were unapologetic and kept making excuses. As, by this time, we were in a rush to get to the cinema, we said we didn’t not have time to listen to their protracted arguments and excuses and we said we would pay for half the bill - which was more than we ate ! Awful awful place ! Don’t bother to go there !!
