Explore the myriad of unique businesses that make Harrogate one of the most popular destinations in Yorkshire.
Rubin’s Coffee
Based on Cheltenham Parade, Harrogate’s new all-day restaurant specialises in blending the best of Turkish and Italian cuisine with some specialities including the famous Rubin salt beef bagel!
Preparing a daily roster of fresh patisserie using the finest ingredients, the in-house pastry team can help you start the day off right with Rubin’s speciality Simit bagel, found across the cuisines of the former Ottoman Empire and served warm straight from the oven.
At the centre of its generous evening menu, the restaurant’s authentic Neapolitan pizzas are all hand stretched in the traditional carriage wheel shape using 48 hour-fermented dough and topped with the finest ingredients.
Made from premium green tea leaves, the restaurants selection of flowering teas also adds some theatre to the day using aromatic infusions to awaken the senses and boost immunity.

Harrogate Hebrew Congregation – Multifaith Solidarity
Harrogate Hebrew Congregation is a warm and friendly orthodox shul holding regular Shabbat and Yom Tov services followed by a delicious sit-down Kiddush.
2023 has commenced with our own annual Holocaust Remembrance service where we also attend Holocaust services held at Ripon Cathedral and Harrogate’s St Peter’s Church.
These events have been well attended and very inspiring with additional relevance today as the war in Ukraine continues.
Our programme of school synagogue visits from across North Yorkshire has also returned, with time very well spent promoting understanding and future relationships.
We welcome visitors who make a very important contribution to our congregation and look forward to you joining us.

Pranzo
Founded in 2018, Pranzo offers authentic Italian dishes whose recipes have been passed down through generations. The restaurant’s Founder, Marco, based the menu on his Nonna’s traditional Calabrese cooking which he was lucky enough to experience in his youth. The Harrogate restaurant is the brand’s second location, and is especially popular with tourists and sun-seekers due to its outdoor terrace and central location.
For those looking for a quick lunchtime bite midweek, Pranzo offers a light lunch menu between 12 and 2.30pm, with two courses available for just £16 and three for £19. Enjoy delicious dishes such as chargrilled polenta topped with warm peperonata or wild mushroom risotto.
