Bettys Tea Rooms Multi-Town Tour
A driven tea-room tour of all six Yorkshire Bettys locations — Harrogate, York (2 sites), Ilkley, Northallerton — for the truly committed.
Bettys has six Yorkshire branches and the truly committed have a personal ranking. A driven tea tour lets you order the same fat rascal at each location and finally decide which is best.
Booked by Bettys obsessives, milestone-birthday parties, and (regularly) by mother-and-daughter days.

- Bettys hamper collection at final stop for the drive home
- Photo at each location if you want the record
- Harrogate Parliament Street is the flagship — busiest and most theatrical
- Ilkley Bettys is the quietest and often the favourite
- York St Helen's Square has the piano — different atmosphere
Yes — 45 minutes each with 20-min drives between. Champagne cream tea makes the 4th a proper stop.
Our driver's personal top: Ilkley. But you'll decide.
Yes — pre-ordered at the final stop; the fresh curd tart and champagne truffles travel best.
