Andy Annat At The Blues Bar

Yorkshire Tapas @the Blues is a true haven for music lovers and cocktail connoisseurs alike. With its incredible live performances, exceptional drink selection, and inviting ambiance, it's the perfect destination for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse themselves in an evening of pure bliss. So why not treat yourself to a night out at the Blues Bar? You won't be disappointed.

We thought the idea was novel so we gave this place a try for dinner. We were very pleasantly surprised! Booking ahead was necessary, and we originally had a small table in the corner. But the staff moved us to one of the several booths as one became available. The staff were great and accommodating. We did wait a little while for our bill, but otherwise very attentive. Food was fantastic! The red slaw and masala prawns were favouritea of ours. I wouldn't recommend the cocktails - go here for the food!!

We went here on Fri 22nd April for the live music which started at 9pm. Only intended to stay for a couple of drinks but stayed till closing because the band were excellent! Small, gritty, not much seating and tiny little bar. A few characters (a bit like the bar from Star Wars😃) but everyone was friendly enough and we had a good laugh!

Stumbled upon Yorkshire Tapas while exploring Harrogate. While the concept is great, the food was quite average and the service was a massive let down. We waited nearly 30 mins for our order and the food wasn't even warm when it arrived. We went on a Saturday afternoon when the restaurant was quite empty, so not sure what delayed our orders. We order the Tatties Bravas which was okay, and the Yorkshire onion bhaji and chickpea fennel patty Yorkshire Pudding. While the tapas fusion concept sounded great, they all tasted average. The bar itself is quite nice, but the food / restaurant seems to be an afterthought.

Such a great venue, old school pub vibes. Visiting the area and thoroughly enjoyed this bar. Very friendly bar staff and the food was beyond tasty, like all the best bits of a roast put into tapas. Great atmosphere enjoyed by regulars and visitors like myself. Live music on the night was enjoyable too. Only issue is the venue is too small, when I tried to return for the second time on a Friday for the live band, it was full and I couldn’t get in haha. I will return in the future and get there early!
