Holy shiznit this place is freaking awesome, a real gem in the middle of Starbeck between Harrogate…read moreand Knaresborough. I'd heard it was good but when I got there it was even better - literally tons of different ice cream flavours - so much choice that I couldn't choose just one so went for a full whack sundae...on my own... The random blue one was ace, as was the crunchie one - with sprinkles and chocolate and hot gooey sauce. OK so it cost around £7 but it was money well spent for such pleasure - so so good!

Crepes are delicious, who doesn't like a crepe? This place brings a fresh fun cafe approach to…read morecrepes, ice cream, smoothies, and milkshakes. I'm extremely glad this place opened up in Harrogate. The ladies behind the counter are extremely nice, decked out in their french striped shirts and kerchiefs. Great idea if you are having a little shop in Harrogate and crave a treat or snack (as they have savoury crepes as well).

Visited this little gem after seeing it reopened after a fire not too long ago. Didn't have the…read morepleasure of going to the original shop but heard good things! My crepe was realllllly good! They have both savory & sweet crepes to try from (as well as various baked goods, ice cream, milkshakes and coffee/tea). Lots of toppings to choose from and various ways they will make a crepe for you. If I had to make any suggestions, it would be to only clean up (maybe 'polish' is the better word?) the inside appearance: turn the glasses over so dust doesn't settle inside, have containers set up along the inside of the display case to show ingredients available to choose from but not ones too big as to cover up the crepe making stations b/c it's interesting to watch, and laminate the menus once they're set. Just a few minor adjustments would have it looking professional but still unique! The folks who worked there are great too: didn't mind talking to us yanks about the shop while we sat there and watched crepe making in action. I'll be paying them a visit again soon!

You may need to brave long queues though guys because they're always huge! You can see why though when the ice cream is such good quality. On my latest visit I hit the rhubarb and custard and creme caramel flavours and for £2.90 a double scoop tub it was so so worth it. Perfect to enjoy in Knaresboro castle yard on a sunny day!

If you're visiting Knaresborough then your trip isn't complete without popping into Brymor's for…read morethe tastiest ice cream around (not that I'm biased being Yorkshire born and bred!). It's a teeny tiny shop that sells around 15 different flavours of ice cream including delights such as rhubarb crumble and almond praline, often changing what's on offer. It really is super delicious with a gorgeous creamy texture and a proper depth of flavour, without being sickly sweet. Prices start from £1.90 for an adult single scoop cone or tub and is perfect for an indulgent treat whilst you stroll around Knaresborough Castle yard just a few minutes away.

In fact I think if you take your own chocolate or sweets in they will make you one using them! Time to dig out that 1982 packet of Opal Fruits I've been leaving to ferment!

This place is a cool general store in the middle of Ripley - a place that attracts loads of…read morevisitors each year, probably due to it's ice cream being so famous! The store has all sorts of day to day items with an extra nod to tourists - selling antique/old school confectionary likely to stir up string feelings of nostalgia amongst people visiting the village for the day. The attached ice cream shop is where the magic happens for me though. The Ripley ice cream is very much like Mr Whippy in that it's smooth and silky - and I really like this style. They also sell a good range of gelato too. Overall, it's worth passing through Ripley to stop for an hour or two - the pub 'the Boar' is supposed to be very good for food and drinks but there's not loads of other places to see and do.

We visited for the ice cream, though, and found it to be really fantastically delicious stuff! Not too sweet, not too cloying -- just right. And we could even sit on the little benches in front and giggle as our kid's struggled to eat the stuff before it all melted into a puddle. The same ice cream is sold in parks in Harrogate, we later discovered. Highly recommended.

Charlotte's real jersey icecream parlour…read more As soon as I heard about this place I thought as an icecream lover it would be rude not to visit when I was in the area so straight in the car and off we went into the beautiful West Yorkshire countryside near Dewsbury to grab some yummy icecream. I thought the setting was wonderful it was possible to see for miles around. I was pleasently surprised how much this place had to offer as if all that icecream and cakes wasn't enough for you there is also animals which includes donkeys, rabbits, goats, geese, and of course cows and a playground and mini golf. Yes there is mini golf with the most amazing views of West Yorkshire The icecream was simply delicious I have to admit it was difficult to decide from all the yummy flavours 24 in total lucky that it is possible to have scoops of different ones together in one tub. Also they sell large tubs to take away and store in your freezer. It is possible to eat inside the cafe or the is seating outside which is lovely on a nice day. We went on a saturday afternoon and it was busy this little spot seems very popular. Parking was free I suggest visiting the website for a map and details of how to find the place.

Was perfectly cooked and tasty. Not too many chips but was satisfying. Blueberry pie for dessert was a wonderful finish.

A bit pricey for a burger considering you can find several in the area but overall nice visit and it hit the spot.

I took the family (6 adults and 2 kids) and between us we had a number of different dishes from the menu. To cut a sad tale short the steaks were of poor quality and were not cooked as they should have been (medium rare was well done etc), the burgers were dried out and the Mexican dishes were cold. The staff seemed pre occupied with other things and although apologetic they did not really seem to care. It is a shame - this used to be a really good place to eat.

We mainly opted for Yorkshire tea which came in decent size pots allowing for a couple of tea cups full each although the second round of tea came in one medium and one small pot for 4 which left us feeling slightly short changed. We ordered afternoon tea for 5 and received a great selection of sweet and savoury delights. We were somewhat puzzled by the fact that, if you required a gluten free tea you had to have lactose free too which seemed strangely rigid and punative (and totally unnecessary) as all the items are prepared on site by skilled people. Our two people who required the gluten free option had to request cream for their scones and in their merangues (strange when the merangues served to the rest of us were gluten free anyway). We also felt that the surcharge for gluten free of £2.50 was a kick in the teeth for people who already have less dietary options and are, after all, limited by a medical condition. Service was variable with some delays and unanswered requests although I have to make it clear that one of our servers, Alberto, made up for the failings of some colleagues by demonstrating consistantly excellent customer service and a very pleasant demeanor, he made our visit so much better! I didn't use the rest room but those our party that did reported that they were dirty and unpleasant.
