A new bar is to open in Harrogate next month after a £1.1m refurbishment of the building.

The Potting Shed Bar & Gardens to launch their exciting new venture, which promises to bring the outdoors in with the brands rustic charm and unique sense of style.

The venue is opening at the former Rift & Co. site with a £1.1m refurbishment and will open on May 25.

The interior design is in the hands of concept bar specialists Ormsborough and will feature a row of trademark brightly-coloured wooden sheds with private bench seating. There will also be an indoor lawn and a number of beautiful hanging baskets displayed around the venue.

The brand-new watering hole will boast a mighty menu of bespoke cocktails, premium craft beers, artisan spirits and the best comfort food in town. With a down-to-earth garden theme running throughout, the space will welcome all with open arms and is both dog and family friendly.

The Potting Shed will be in full bloom from midday on Friday 25 May when the grand opening will mark their fifth venue, having already enjoyed success in Guiseley, Northallerton, Bingley and Beverley. Plans are also well underway to launch the sixth venue, which will hit Trinity in Leeds in time for summer.

Jade Renner, director, said: “We take a lot of care in finding all of our sites and this landmark building fits perfectly with our brand and gives us a great opportunity,” she explained “Our bars are different, they’re fun, they welcome families and are even dog friendly! So we are confident everyone will come and experience that for themselves once we open our doors.”
