Known for serving high quality British gastropub grub to the people of Harrogate, Three's A Crowd have expanded and opened up a new site on North Street, Leeds.
Taking over the spot of beloved Leeds institution The Reliance which sadly closed it’s doors back in January, Three’s A Crowd is a modern gastropub serving British food using only the best local ingredients.
The popular venue, which first opened in Harrogate’s West Park in 2019, is known for its locally sourced food, premium wine list and friendly atmosphere.
We headed over to sample their new lunch menu, and it certainly did not disappoint.

From the offset the space is light, airy and welcoming - the owners have kept some of the building's original features which has kept it's charm whilst also adding their own personal touches.
The lunch menu consists of bigger plates, sides as well as smaller plates which are perfect for sharing amongst friends over a crisp glass of wine.
A standout dish was the steaming hot bowl of mussels served in a creamy leek and garlic sauce, served with the welcome addition of some homemade focaccia bread to mop up the juices.

The rich Oxtail Ragu was packed with succulent meat that simply melted in the mouth, with pappardelle pasta that was perfectly cooked and showered with lashings of salty parmesan.
From the small plates we went for the Korean Fried Chicken coated in Gochujang, spring onion and sesame. This was absolutely delicious, the breading was crispy and crunchy whilst the chicken was still moist and juicy on the inside.
The Homemade Focaccia was warm, fluffy and incredibly moreish when dunked into the winning combination of olive oil and balsamic.
A special mention must go to the Lyonnaise Potatoes which were crispy on the outside, creamy in the middle and topped generously with soft buttery caramelised onions. The perfect addition to any meal and in our opinion a must order.

From the dessert menu we were feeling nostalgic and opted for the Marmalade Sponge, drenched in hot vanilla custard this felt like a warm hug in a bowl and topped our meal off perfectly.
Overall, Three's A Crowd is a brilliant addition to the Northern part of Leeds city centre and we can't wait to sample their other food and drink offerings.

Deliveroo and Coco Robotics are set to bring robot deliveries to Leeds through a new strategic partnership.
Next time you order a takeaway...let's just say, it could look a little different.
In the new exclusive partnership, Deliveroo and Coco Robotics are launching in multiple locations, beginning with Canary Wharf in London this October, before launching here in Leeds as well as Milton Keynes, Stockton on Tees and Nottingham in the coming weeks and months.
The rollout marks Coco Robotic's entry into the UK, extending the company’s broader expansion across Europe.
While the majority of orders will continue to be fulfilled by Deliveroo’s rider network, Coco’s fully electric robots are suited to short-distances and navigating urban environments, offering additional flexibility to local businesses on Deliveroo’s platform.
The robots operate at walking place, meaning they're able to move safely through busy streets whilst carrying orders directly to customers.

Miki Kuusi, CEO at Deliveroo and Head of DoorDash International: “London is where Deliveroo was born, so it feels fitting that we’re launching our first UK autonomous delivery service with Coco Robotics here before expanding our exclusive partnership to more towns and cities nationwide, building on our partnership in other geographies.
“We see huge potential in autonomous delivery and we are looking forward to working with Coco to bring more flexibility to our delivery network, helping local restaurants and shops meet increasing consumer demand. We firmly believe that robot and drone technology should benefit High Street businesses of all sizes, helping them remain competitive and meet consumers in new ways.”
Councillor Tom Hinchcliffe, Leeds City Council’s executive member for transport and planning, said: "Our council is determined to embrace the opportunities offered by emerging technology. This approach has already helped establish Leeds as a location for hosting and advising on robot delivery trials.
“Supporting innovation means attracting investment. That's why we are now pleased to be working with Coco Robotics regarding the city’s future involvement in the UK rollout of their partnership with Deliveroo.
“We look forward to exploring the benefits that the rollout can bring to Leeds and its residents.”
