It’s our 40th Birthday!

It’s our 40th Birthday!


It’s so hard to believe that The Tannin level has now been serving the wonderful people of Harrogate since September 1985; that’s 40 years!


Of course over the last 40 years we have seen many changes in our culinary landscape, and what better way to celebrate our journey through 4 decades than to showcase some of the iconic dishes we have served along the way?


So, for the month of September (we opened our doors on the 9th September 1985), we have re-created some of our favourite and most popular dishes from the last 40 years.


We’ve had such fun putting these dishes together, and we really hope you enjoy the journey with us as we travel through 40 years of The Tannin Level’s culinary history.


And finally, we want to say a huge “thank you” to all our loyal and ever supportive guests; a great many of whom we now consider to be good friends. It is your support and patronage which has fuelled this journey, and we very much hope to enjoy your company in the years to come as our journey continues.


Our “Tannin Level Though The Decades” menu will be live on our website the last week in August, so don’t forget to check back!
