    An Italian independent café has opened on the top floor of Next in Harrogate town centre.

    Caffe Masserella opened to the public for the first time on Wednesday. Next Harrogate is the fourth retail shop Caffe Masserella has moved into in Yorkshire.

    Jake Earnshaw, Store Manager at Next, Harrogate said:

    "Next were looking for some independents, mostly it’s chains in Next stores so they thought in Harrogate it would be nice to have an independent. It has been really busy, they exceeded what they needed to take on Wednesday. It has been buzzing."


    Caffe Masserella has a history dating back over 150 years when Giovanni Massarella and his brothers arrived in the UK from Italy.

    Giovanni's family downline used their Italian heritage to start an ice cream business in the 1950s before opening cafés across the UK.

    Aiden Gambles, Manager at Harrogate's Caffe Massarella said:

    "The opening was meant to happen post-lockdown but now the ball's rolling. I like to make everybody happy spending time in my cafe. It's slightly different with covid procedures but we're getting used to it. It's an exciting time for me and the team I have here."


    Caffe Masserella's menu includes a variety of artisan sandwiches, sweet treats and hot drinks.
