Tonight: New Harrogate restaurant's 'soft launch'
After a major refurb, the team behind Burgers & More are moving into the Damn Yankee, which has been in Harrogate since 1972 and has been hailed as the "the oldest independent hamburger restaurant in the country."
In moving its home from it current location below ground level in The Kimberley Hotel on Kings Road, Burgers & More boss Ian Coumont intends to build on the heritage of this famous American-style diner - even retaining the name, partially at least.
