A much-loved micropub in Harrogate has submitted plans to open a sister venue in York.

The Little Ale House on Cheltenham Crescent plans to open a new bar at the unit previously occupied by Little Bettys Café Tearooms on Stonegate.

The business was launched by Richard and Daniel Park in 2016.

And as part of plans submitted for a second venue, the pair have proposed alterations include adding timber panelling to the walls and installing a free-standing bar and back bar.

The planning documents state:

“The aim of [The Little Ale House] was to create a traditional pub in the heart of Harrogate which celebrates local ales and provides a cosy environment for people to meet and socialise without the distractions of TVs or background music.

“The owners of The Little Ale House business are not only passionate about traditional pubs but also historic buildings, therefore the opportunity to open a pub in 46, 48 and 50 Stonegate was a natural pairing.”

City of York Council are yet to make a decision on the application. A consultation will be held on Friday 12th July.
