Harrogate café bar brings a taste of Champagne & cheese to Yorkshire – lunch offers & afternoon tea offers


Summer is for those little indulgences which make holidays so special – but you can recreate the same vibe right here in Yorkshire.
Imagine sitting at a pavement café in Paris, watching the world go by with a crisp, cold, delicately fizzing glass of Champagne in hand, and a selection of fine French cheeses and curated cured meats on the table to accompany it.
Ahhh…. That perfect combination just hits the spot, and the good news is, you can recreate the feeling and flavours any day of the week, right here in North Yorkshire. Champagne + Fromage in Harrogate is perfectly placed to deliver this unbeatable combination of delicious deli delights and a carefully chosen Champagne, to suit your palate.
Take a seat in the sunshine at one of the cosy pavement tables outside, people-watch through the window, or take a break from the summer sun, to cool off inside this cute café-style bar.


Make lunch more luxurious
Why save Champagne for big occasions? Isn’t it time to celebrate YOU and treat yourself to a glass of the good stuff?
And when you can team it with a three-course lunch for just £20, then surely that’s something worth popping a cork for?
Whether it’s a catch up lunch with a friend, a daytime date for the one you love, a treat for mum or just because you deserve it, Champagne + Fromage gives a simple meal a sense of style.
The cheese choice is incredible – from soft mountain cheeses to luxurious creamy ones served fondue-style, rounds of rich hard aged cheeses to flavoured fromages – expect cheese to take centre stage on this bistro menu.
But with a wide choice of snacks and light bites to more substantial dishes there’s something for everyone. The delicatessen ingredients – including sausage, cured and smoked meats– are delivered via a supplier which selects the best authentic French ingredients from Aquitaine to Brittany, Alsace to the Loire.
· A three-course lunch for £20 per person (served Monday to Friday 12-3pm) Immerse yourself in French cuisine with starters including pate, French onion soup, smoked mackerel and egg cocotte, a choice of substantial salads or casseroles for mains including salad chevre chaud, salad bleu cheese, salad Nicoise, beouf Bourgignon, cassoulet and Portobello mushroom raclette and finish off with a tarte aux pommes, tarte au chocolate or tarte au citron.
· Afternoon tea with Champagne for £39.40, which includes savoury rolls and quiches, mini cakes for dessert and a glass of house Champagne (£25.99 without the Champagne)
Make a meal something special
The Royal Parade franchise of Champagne + Fromage is the only one in Yorkshire and the most northerly in the UK.
More than a champagne and wine bar, but not a full blown restaurant, this 36 cover café (with tables for up to six people) has a convivial and relaxed atmosphere. It’s ideal for a host of special occasions, but also makes the perfect place to stop for a catch up, a date or just because you fancy a little slice of luxury and indulgence.


What’s your fave fizz?
Champagnes here are sourced from the region’s smaller vineyards – giving customers superb choices of grape varieties and the chance to taste a Champagne they may not have had before.
Expert staff can guide you through the options, whether you like a very dry, or fruity wine, and lots of bubbles or not so many? And of course, the served here are the perfect accompaniment to the food on offer.
Salut!
Forget flutes, the carefully curated Cuvees come in glasses specially designed not only to help the Champagne keep its sparkle for longer, but to allow the full aromas of the wine to reach your nose and palate.
There is a wide choice of Champagne by the glass, as well as bottles, and a smaller, but equally carefully selected, list of red, white and rose wines.
