stayed across the road at the Travelodge. Ate 1st night at 'spoons then found this little gem. Food outstanding, staff friendly, service good, and atmosphere 2nd to none. Then mixed with the well kept real ale...a wonderful place to spend an evening.

A delightful pub on the banks of the fosse. Great selection of real ales and cider in a traditional pub setting. We sat outside in the beer garden with out two teenage children before retiring inside to play dominoes the doors were open and we were looking across to the daffodils on the side of the city walls. Great to... More

We came here twice for an evening meal because we were staying locally for bed and breakfast. The menu was extensive and the portions huge. Staff were friendly and the bar was very well-stocked. Only problem was the chips were awful! Huge chunks of potato that were soft and not like chips or wedges at all. At least there was... More

My partner and I stayed here last week as we were in York for a wedding. The first thing i'll say is this isn't a B&B, despite being advertised as such. When we asked what time breakfast was served we were told they don't do breakfast but we could go to the Wetherspoons over the road if we wanted. As... More

We usually stay in one of the big hotel chains but they were all booked up for the date we wanted. Late rooms offered this place, I have eaten here many times but was not aware they had rooms. Less than half the price we usually pay, great location, lovely room, good food and very friendly service. What's not to... More

My wife and I have just had 5 nights stay in York. Due to the price of the food in our hotel we had seen on Trip Advisor from other guest that it was a good place to go to eat. We were not disappointed. The welcome was very friendly and warm with open fire warming the place. They have... More

Everything I saw being served looked great and the portions are very generous. Really nice atmosphere, if we had a pub... More
