Hoxton North

Grey subway tiles and a cool, dark wood interior make Hoxton North one of the hippest spots on this top Harrogate Brunch list.

Farmhouse

Farmhouse was an aspiration for owner Jordan, who had always dreamed of owning his own restaurant. Serving up delicious brunch options with a unique twist, all day until 5 pm, Farmhouse is a welcome addition to the Harrogate food scene.

Their menu changes frequently but favourites we’ve tried were blueberry and banana pancakes, a Mexican-inspired huevos rancheros breakfast including sweet and spicy chorizo, avocado, and feta, as well as lighter fragrant salad bowls.

As for drinks, pair your brunch with cocktails, mocktails, smoothies, or a quality hand-roasted coffee. Snuggle up with a soothing chai latte, or celebrate the end of the week with a spiced mango margarita.
