A small, but very well patronised ice-cream shop. It's well known for the variety of flavours it offers on a 'daily specials' basis.
Turkish Delight
Apple & Orange
Toffee Apple
Banana Yoghurt
Peanut Butter
The Castle is well worth a visit as well, plus there are numerous local walks around the vicinity. The village was remodelled in the 1800's on a French layout.

A very busy little cafe situated in this small, but highly trafficced, village right on the A65 (the main West Yorkshire to Cumbria route)
After enjoying the food in the cafe, the village itself is a marvel with an infant River Aire (having risen a few miles away near Malham) gurgles past across a set of stepping stones.
To either side of the village are items of interest on the Leeds & Liverpool Canal;
to the west is a fairly deep & busy lock
to the east is an wonderful stone aquaduct carrying the canal over Eshton Beck.

Bettys Of Harrogate

One of the last bastions of the traditional English tea-rooms. Waitress's still wear (or did) black uniforms & white aprons.
People-spotting is an interesting pastime here, from the old ladies reminiscing to the 'Ladies That Lunch'.
Quite expensive, even as simply a bakery, but it's a real survivor from the past
The tea they exclusively use (named quite simply; 'Yorkshire Tea') is also blended by the parent company, and a 'good cuppa' it is too (available in good supermarkets)

Another one just off the A65 that really deserves a mention is the Game Cock Inn in Austwick village. As well as excellent food, the atmosphere was great at the weekend, friendly landlord, locals who made space for us to get a table. Booking is advisable.

A great place for a meal is High Moor Farm, the caravan site, about 4 miles out of Harrogate on the A59 towards Skipton, been going there since we were kids with Mam and Dad, it's a family run site with pub serving great traditional meals with some variation. Great for kids has a fab swimming pool and a nice big child friendly park, they do allow visitors for the day but do ask that they pay a small fee. The pub isn't always open so to ring in advance would be advisable, but weekends is normally a dead cert........
I'd recommend the Gammon
James would recommend the Lamb Shank
and mam and dad always have scampi and a mixed grill lol
