The Ivy Harrogate celebrates Halloween with a week of special menus, spooky cocktails and a ghoulish display

This Halloween, The Ivy Harrogate’s entrance, doorway and terrace will be transformed into a spooky spectacular for guests to enjoy for one-week-only, complete with cobwebs, skulls, spiders, lighting and more.

For foodie lovers, the restaurant will also be serving up a special “Halloweek” menu. Priced at £40 per person for three courses, guests will be invited to choose from a series of playful, limited-edition dishes including Grave-lax & blood orange (cured salmon with a bloody orange dressing), roasted pumpkin (whole mini pumpkin with Freekeh, coriander and red pepper sauce), steak through the heart (seared rare tuna steak, crispy artichoke heart, black garlic sauce, pomegranate and smoked aubergine) and a tantalising “chocolate skull” dessert (salted caramel chocolate pudding, golden popping candy and honeycomb, served alongside vanilla ice cream).

Spiced Apple Martini at the Ivy HarrogateFor adults, there will be a seasonal cocktail to help raise spirits this Halloween. Created by the restaurant’s bar team, the devilishly good Spiced Apple Martini (£8.75) will combine Calvados with cinnamon syrup and apple juice. A non-alcoholic children’s “Mini Pumpkin” mocktail will also be available, featuring grenadine, orange juice and lemonade.

Rodney Prosper, General Manager at The Ivy Harrogate, says: “We are very excited to be celebrating Halloween this year in Harrogate. This is the first time we’ll be offering a dedicated menu for locals, neighbours, adults and children to enjoy and we can’t wait to see our guests’ reactions when they step inside the restaurant. With so many families living locally, we will be encouraging diners to dress up and fully immerse themselves in the Halloween spirit. We’ll also have trick or treating outside the restaurant on Halloween itself.”

The Ivy Harrogate’s ghostly goings-on, including its limited edition set menu and cocktails, will be available to enjoy for one-week-only, from Wednesday, 24 October to Wednesday, 31 October inclusively. The restaurant’s Halloween set menu will be available daily from 4pm.
