Popular restaurant reopens at Harrogate pub
The popular Chez la Vie bistro, which prospered on Station Parade in Harrogate from the early 1990s to late 2015 when it closed, is to reopen it at the Nelson Inn.
This landmark pub on the busy A59 on the way to Hampsthwaite has been a long-term fixture for Harrogate families drawn by its family-friendly atmosphere, hearty pub food, cask ales and fine wines.
