Yemi’s Taste Test: the region’s RascalsQueues form outside Bettys as Harrogate shop reopens

Long queues have formed outside Bettys in Harrogate today as its shop reopened to the public.

Bettys closed all of its six cafes and shops back in March but today has opened their Harrogate shop, with Ilkley, Harlow Carr and York opening next week.

Queues have been forming all day outside the Harrogate shop.

Managing Director of Bettys, Simon Eyles said:

“We are truly delighted to be welcoming customers back to our Bettys shops, we’ve missed them. To ensure their safety and that of our colleagues, we have new shopping systems in place. So, while it might not be the full Bettys experience that customers are used to, people will still find the mouth-watering Bettys treats they have been missing and, of course, our warm Yorkshire welcome.”

Screens have been placed in the shop to protect customers and staff.

All of the Bettys cafes remain closed until further notice.
