An empty shopping unit in Harrogate town centre looks set to host a Muffin Break cafe.

Notices have appeared in the window of the former Hotter shoe shop on Cambridge Street for a pavement licence application.

The notice says the applicant is FoodCo UK Franchising Ltd, known as Muffin Break bakery cafe.

Muffin Break is a franchise business of FoodCo that originated in Canada and now has about 60 UK outlets. The closest one is in Bradford.



They typically sell muffins, cakes and coffee and also provide breakfasts and light lunches.

The licence application is dated June 9 and says the deadline for comments is June 13 — four days later.

The Stray Ferret asked North Yorkshire Council, which determines licence applications, for further details.

The council displays pavement licence applications on its website here. But a spokeswoman said the Muffin Break application was no longer available because the objection expiry date had passed. She added the licence had been granted.

We tried to contact FoodCo UK Franchising but have not had a reply.
