Janice Grayson. In Leeds Creams, Queen’s Hotel, Patisserie Valerie. Bettys in Harrogate and Ilkley and Parliament Street Cafe in Harrogate. Not that I go out for afternoon tea often!

Donna-Marie Whatmore. It has to be Just Grand vintage tearoom in The Grand Arcade. Just a fabulous place to have a cup of tea and a slice of the homemade cakes and scones that are on offer, along with a variety of yumminess that awaits and the warm and friendly welcome that greets you as soon as you step into this lovely little gem.
