An Exceptional Dining Experience in Your Own Home

Harrogate is known for elegant surroundings, beautiful properties and a strong food and hospitality culture, from the open green of the Stray to Valley Gardens and the town’s handsome Victorian streets.

For those planning a special occasion, Oyster & Olive offers a personal alternative to the traditional restaurant experience. Enjoy bespoke private dining or discuss catering for a celebration with independent chef Kevin Hacking.

Private Dining

Perfect for Dinner Parties & Milestone Celebrations

Whether you’re marking an anniversary, celebrating a birthday or inviting friends over for an elegant evening, your menu can be created around your preferences.

A private chef lets you spend the evening at the table with your guests rather than in the kitchen.

Planning Your Occasion

Hosting a Dinner Party in Harrogate

Many Harrogate homes, from Victorian townhouses near the Stray to family houses on the edge of town, are made for entertaining. Private dining lets you host friends and family properly, with a menu planned around your guests and no need to leave the table to check on the oven.

Harrogate also welcomes plenty of visitors, whether for events at the Harrogate Convention Centre or for weekends exploring Nidderdale. If you’re staying in a holiday let with friends or colleagues, a private chef evening can be a relaxed way to eat together. For business groups, see corporate hospitality.
