Bettys in Harrogate ranked among UK's top 20 coffee shops
Bettys Cafe Tea Rooms in Harrogate has been named one of the UK's 20 best coffee shops, alongside two other Yorkshire venues.
Coffee manufacturer Coffee Friend created the list by looking at all coffee shops with over 100 TripAdvisor reviews, basing the results on how many 'Excellent', and 'Terrible' rankings they received. Bettys received over 4,000 'excellent' reviews on the site.
Bettys ranked number 20 and may have been hampered by its sheer volume of reviews. It received over 7,000 while only one other coffee shop reached the thousands — this inevitably increased the number of 'Terrible' rankings Bettys received.
The tea room and cafe has become a popular tourist spot since its establishment over 100 years ago. The Harrogate branch is its flagship, but there are now six in Yorkshire, including one at Harlow Carr. The cafe at Bettys Stonegate in York closed this year but the shop remains open.
Espresso Yourself in Scarborough and Wheldrakes in York also made the list.
At number one was Bigmoose Coffee Company in Glasgow, a non-profit cafe, which donates all profit to charities.
