Harrogate’s newly-renovated Crimple has appointed a new executive chef.
Tim Kitchen started his first head chef role in 2013 at D&D in Leeds and has worked in various venues across Yorkshire since.
Mr Kitchen has moved to Harrogate from Skipton’s Keelham Farm Shop — a success story Crimple is keen to replicate.
This new chef joins shortly after Crimple, previously known as Crimple Hall, completed a £6 million investment. It now has a 20,000 square foot food hall, 150-seat restaurant and private events space plus a garden centre and gift hall,
The food hall has an in-house bakery, 12-metre butcher’s counter and chef-cooked ready meals. All the food and produce is locally sourced and fresh.

Graham Watson, the owner of Crimple, said:
‘”We are incredibly excited to bring Tim aboard the Crimple team. We’re passionate about supporting local and can’t wait for Tim to weave his creativity and passion into our menus.
“With late night dining launching imminently and a big focus on private events in 2022, there’s lots to do but with Tim at the helm we know the food will triumph.”
Mr Kitchen added:
“I’m looking forward to this next chapter in my culinary journey.
“With all the buzz around the re-launch of Crimple I can’t wait to get started.
“I am truly excited about the opportunity to meet customers and help make their dining experience unforgettable.”
