Christmas is fast approaching, and many of us will be starting to look ahead to one of the main events of the festive period: Christmas dinner. 

Whether you're a turkey traditionalist or prefer the buffet-style Boxing Day spread, there's plenty of places in the Harrogate district stocking meat, deli food and much more. 

Don't delay though - many of the places below encourage pre-booking festive food, to avoid disappointment on the big day.
