Located in Ilkley. We love this place. Run by a young Romanian couple. Food is amazing and service is always excellent. They make a delicious traditional Romanian layered cake which has to be tried! Daniel's is not far from Booths supermarket which is the 'Waitrose of the North' but far better! Park in their carpark, visit Daniel's and then go back to Booths and stock up with lots of lovely local produce.

We love this coffee shop... in fact we go to it most days, even if it is a good 20 mins drive away on Town Street in Horsforth! Really friendly staff, amazing cakes (the Cruffins, Raspberry Frangipan, Rocky Road and Cinnamon rolls are highly recommended), serve Northstar Coffee (roasted in Leeds), great range of filled bagels and local pies and sausage rolls. Always busy so even if you can't get a table, takeout is just as good!

Found on Cold Bath Road in Harrogate, this is one of our favourite places to eat. We prefer the basement restaurant rather than the first floor as it's more intimate and cosy. Great quality food, excellent service... not too stuffy. Smart/casual dress code. We highly recommend this place.
