About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions

For over 100 years Bettys has been devoted to lifting spirits with life’s little pleasures; handmade cakes, unique freshly baked products, beautiful Café Tea Rooms, rare and exclusive coffees and teas and continental-inspired menus.

There are five Bettys Café Tea Rooms in Yorkshire, each with its own shop where you can walk in and enjoy breakfast, lunch and an afternoon treat.

Bettys is famous for afternoon tea, and if you want to experience the finest we offer, you can book a table for our Belmont Room in York or our Imperial Room in Harrogate. You'll be serenaded by our pianist as you enjoy a selection of savouries, indulgent sandwiches, specially selected teas and irresistible dainty cakes and scones.
Join us for evening dining Thursday to Saturday, where we bring together elegant surroundings, a refined food and drinks menu. Also, for that extra dash of after-hours elegance, a pianist performs live classical covers of popular contemporary music.

    It was a joy to be having our evening meal in Bettys again after they stopping opening in the evening after Covid. It was a totally beautiful evening. Delicious food, and perfect service from the lovely staff. Every detail, from the water and wine glasses to the elegant lamps on the tables, had been considered. Our table was by the window, with the lawns and flowerbeds outside and the evening sun glowing. Bettys is a very special, unique place, particularly the Harrogate branch. We are so lucky to have it.

    Very disappointing evening! Could hardly hear the piano! Drink service was a disaster. Food was very mediocre. Maybe evenings are not the way forward. The staff did their best but they are not trained to do a different service other than day service: the menu needs to be different - over cooked schnitzel, with a half pack of tomatoes, an odd looking gratin: desserts were good: the staff were professional and did there best. Would not go again.

    Fantastic afternoon tea, the best we have ever had. The ambience of the room was lovely with the pianist. The flavours were light and refreshing. Every member of staff was superb from handling enquiries, waiting on us to preparing our food. A lovely way to celebrate our anniversary.

    Have wanted to visit Betty's for a long time and I was not disappointed. Everything about it was fabulous; the tea, the food, the presentation, the ambience and most of all the service - discreet but also with that inimitable Yorkshire friendliness.
