The story of Bettys began in Harrogate in 1919. Inside the shop the choice is almost overwhelming with over 300 breads, cakes and chocolates, as well as 50 different teas and coffees.
In the café the tables by the windows overlooking the Stray and colourful Montpellier gardens are always the most popular, but in our downstairs Spindler Gallery views of Yorkshire are of a more unusual kind. Here there is a collection of exquisite Marquetry scenes of Yorkshire from the studio of Charles Spindler in Alsace, which was established in the late 1890s at the height of the Art Nouveau period. The founder of Bettys, Frederick Belmont, discovered Spindler’s work in the early 1930s and commissioned the studio to make Yorkshire scenes to hang in his café tea rooms. |
