Located inside the buzzing Blues Cafe Bar in Harrogate, Yorkshire Tapas is a unique restaurant serving up beloved Northern British classics with a Spanish twist. Utilising only top-quality, fresh, local produce, Yorkshire Tapas offers Northern soul food in a sharing plates, group dining tapas style, alongside daily live music and an extensive selection of gin.
Yorkshire Tapas aims to reimagine home comforts, dishing out a taste of the countryside with its ingredient-led, seasonal menu that showcases the best of regional produce, but with an international spin. Designed to be shared, dishes aim to bring diners together over classic cuisine reinvented.
Expect to find high-quality ingredients like rare-breed chorizo, red cabbage pickled in liquor, and 36-hour slow cooked beef brisket, for innovative and flavourful combinations. While the menu changes according to what is in season, you may find dishes such as tatties bravas - a Yorkshire take on the iconic Spanish classic, with rosemary roast spuds, plum tomatoes, paprika, cheddar, and aioli - a Yorkshire onion bhaji with masala ketchup and garlic and mint yoghurt, or a home-made, traditional Yorkshire pudding with creamy whipped horseradish mash, stockpot beef dripping gravy, and shoestring fries, with your choice of slow cooked beef brisket, barbecue pulled pork, or a chickpea and fennel patty.
The funky menu matches the funky interiors, which has an old-school bar vibe blended with classic adobe Spanish walls and colourful woven tapestries. The cosy space is the ideal place to enjoy experimental shared plates before moving to the two lively bars for fabulous live music and an ample selection of local ales, inventive cocktails, and gins. Boasting over 100 different gins, you can never run out of options. So if you want fun tastes, such as cauliflower cheese croquettes or blue stilton gnocchi, served with great drinks and entertaining music, then Yorkshire Tapas is the place.
