Places to Eat in Harrogate

There’s no need to worry if you find your bellies rumbling whilst on your stag events in Harrogate as there are heaps of amazing foodie venues for you and the lads to visit. Whether you just want a quick bite to eat or you fancy a proper sit down meal, Harrogate has you covered.

Let’s be honest lads, you can’t get much better than a big juicy and meaty steak from time to time especially if you’re about to party the night away with plenty alcohol involved. Bodega Bar & Grill is a Brazilian Steak House where you and the lads will be spoilt to 15 cuts of fresh meat with authentic Brazilian side dishes. So, if sinking your teeth into thick, melt-in-your-mouth steaks sounds good to you, then make sure to pop into Bodega.

If you’re fancying something more exotic during your celebrations then why not sample some delicious traditional Greek dishes at Mykonos Bar & Grill. This authentic restaurant is proud to host parties and supply them with all the tasty Greek grub they can possibly eat, as well as treating them to some wonderful cocktails from their bar. What’s not to love?

Montpellier Gardens

This road is home to many of Harrogate best and classiest bars and pubs. You can find almost any drink or atmosphere you are after on this road, making it ideal for the parties who don’t want to venture too far.

Major Tom’s Social specialises is serving their customers with the finest craft beers and real ale. This independent laidback hangout is perfect for a quiet night out with the lads, especially if you are all beer lovers.

For a taste of fine wine, local beers and amazing cocktails, Porco Rosso is the place to be. Whilst you sit down and sip on your expertly crafted drinks, you will hear funk and soul music, making the night out nice and relaxed.

Parliament Street

Right next to Montpellier Gardens, Parliament Street houses more upbeat and lively bars and clubs that would be better suited to the lads who want to party the night away.

A nightclub that will truly add some energy and VIP into your celebrations and is popular amongst stag do’s is The Viper Rooms. Their themes vary depending which day it is, but no matter which day you go, they will always have their disgracefully grown up cocktail menu on offer.

The Pit is an underground bar which is bound to add fun into any night and create everlasting memories (well, that depends how much you drink). Play a game of ping pong or two as you sip on whichever drink you choose from their large menu. Plus, they offer plenty drink deals including 2-4-1 cocktails, so what’s not to love?

Getting Around Harrogate

Harrogate is best reached from both Leeds and York since they offer good train links. Visiting using a car can be good but due to its rural location in the north of England it can be a tiresome, long drive depending on where you live.

Harrogate is a big town but small enough to navigate on foot and getting around is hassle free. In a town like Harrogate, walking around and taking in all the beautiful sights is a big part of the experience and makes it the best form of travel within the town.

If you want to head out and explore the stunning Yorkshire countryside surrounding Harrogate, then a car would be the most suitable. Buses to Leeds are conveniently every 15 minutes or so, if you wanted to visit Harrogate’s big neighbour.
