Yorkshire and the Humber

Spring Espresso, York

 

As seasons go by, new coffee shops emerge in historic York. The latest is Spring Espresso, a terrific independent café on Fossgate.

Laynes Espresso, Leeds

 

Laynes is a newbie in Leeds, a city which deserves (and now has) another brilliant coffee shop.

Bean & Bud, Harrogate

 

In flowery Harrogate is Bean & Bud, a prime target for coffee-starved day-trippers.

The Perky Peacock, York

 

On a cold winter’s day I visited The Perky Peacock, a relatively new – and brilliant – addition to the York cafe scene.

TeaHee!, Easingwold

 

TeaHee! (don’t forget the exclamation mark) is a comfy little coffee shop in the pretty North Yorkshire town of Easingwold.

Gatehouse Coffee, York

 

Us York-ites are spoilt for choice when it comes to indie coffee shops.  As if we needed another, up pops Gatehouse Coffee, one of the most interesting cafés you could wish to find.

Café Harlequin, York

 

Hard-to-find Harlequin is a nice place with really good coffee.
