A new bar is set to open on Harrogate’s Cold Bath Road today.
17 Miles will open its doors in the former Scandinavian clothes shop Bias.
The bar sells a range of independent craft beers, wines and non-alcoholic drinks.
Owner Matthew Gray came up with the name by combining the door number and the name of his son, Miles.
Mr Gray, who was granted planning permission for the conversion in April, said he wanted to open in the “up and coming” Cold Bath Road area.
He said:
“I think the vibe around the area is increasing.
“In terms of the venue, it immediately catches the eye of passers by with its windows.”
Here are some photos of the new venture, which adds to the growing number of bars on Cold Bath Road.
The bar is open from 4pm today and is dog friendly.
Its opening times will be 4pm to 11pm Tuesday to Friday, 12pm to 11pm on Saturday and 12pm until 9pm on Sunday.
