Although the Abbey Vaults is a large pub, it is effectively split into three areas which provides opportunities for a quiet pint if you don’t want to be near the sport. The area we sat in (to the right of the bar as you walk in) has very attractive wood panelling walls and comfortable seating alcoves. There is also a huge fireplace but because of its large size I doubt that it ever sees a real fire. Along with good service and crisp lagers there was a nice atmosphere and we enjoyed our visit.

Abbey Vaults is a fantastic small pub nestled in the heart of Selby. It’s the perfect spot for catching up with friends, enjoying a relaxed atmosphere, and maybe even challenging someone to a game of pool. What really stands out is the convenience—pool can be paid for directly on the machine by card, which is a great added bonus and super convenient in today's cashless era. The drinks are always refreshing, and the service is friendly and efficient. Overall, it’s a cosy, welcoming place that’s ideal for a casual outing. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

I am a General Practitioner and this has been my Mother since I moved into Selby in 2009. I am an Indian by Orientation. This pub is just not a pub, its family, its a community. This place has seen me through the toughest of times. A lovely a game of Pool, a lovely drink, and a Nice banter and that's what you get. Elderly are respected and taken care of, Females feel safe, DRINKS ARE CHEAP, and Landlord Charlie (Who I call Lord Charles with affection), you cant beat. Best part is, and that is I some hing I can vouch as a Clinician- People come to this place, they share their happiness, sorrows and problems. We don't let down the people we Love. Its an Anchor for me and so many others. Keep going Lord Charles, Love you to bits.

Marvellous! You might not like the look of it from the outside but go there @ 10am on a Sunday ( when it opens ) and park for free right outside. Have a pint of well kept Director's for the princely sum of £2.95 and a genial chat with the friendly landlord. It's a Marston's pub...one of the better chains... and when I went had two other real ales on tap. And at those prices it's just great!

Discovered this little gem by pure coincidence as we were passing through the area and really hungry on a Saturday evening. The young women running the front of house were really friendly and welcoming. They were quite busy but thankfully had one table remaining to fit us in. We were seated and our drinks order was taken promptly while we looked over a menu. Our drinks arrived quickly. My partner ordered a steak and ale pie and I ordered a chicken massamam curry. Food was brought out in good time and was absolutely incredible. Exactly what you would hope for, but better! The chips were incredibly tasty and fluffy, the gravy was so rich and flavourful that my partner would have happily drank a pint of that alone, the pastry was cooked perfectly and so was the steak which melted in the mouth. The massamam curry was tasty with plenty of nice chicken and lots of vegetables in the curry with a generous portion of light fluffy rice and some naan bread. Both meals were generous portions, very filling and offered amazing value for money. We would happily dine here again!
