Seeing The Archive mentioned in Condé Nast Traveller is a lovely moment for our team. Thank you to travel writer Nicola Chilton for including us in her guide to West Yorkshire.
A little corner of Holmfirth
In Beyond ‘Wuthering Heights’, a tour of the real West Yorkshire, published by Condé Nast Traveller Middle East on 16 February 2026, Nicola returns to the county where she grew up. Her Holmfirth section includes The Archive and introduces Yasi and Rochelle, our Sri Lanka-born founders.
We’ve always wanted The Archive to be somewhere locals and visitors feel welcome: a place to pause, share food and enjoy a little time together in Victoria Square. It means a great deal to see our café included in a story about this part of Yorkshire.
Thank you to everyone who has helped make The Archive what it is.
