New Harrogate cocktail bar given go-ahead
A new cocktail bar is set to open in Harrogate town centre.
Harrogate Borough Council has approved plans for the former Moss Bros clothes shop on Parliament Street to be converted into a bar.
Owners of Leeds-based cocktail bar, Roland's, submitted the proposal along with a licence application to open from Monday to Sunday from 10am until 2.30am.
Roland’s website says it serves up “exceptional drinks, great music and a good time”. The Leeds bar opened in 2014 and is situated at 39 Call Lane, one of the most popular streets in the city for nightlife.
ELG Planning, which lodged the proposal on behalf of Roland's, said in documents submitted to the council that the move was an opportunity for the bar to expand its business.

The new bar would be the latest addition to Parliament Street’s nightlife scene, which includes the Harrogate Arms, Revolución de Cuba, Mojo, Wetherspoons and the Viper Rooms.
The Ginnel hosts bars Montey’s and Major Tom’s Social.
Some venues on Parliament Street have struggled to survive in recent years, including Jamie’s Italian, Wagyu Bar and Grill and The Restaurant Bar and Grill, which all closed.
