The cafe is LGBTQIA+ friendly, great food, high quality drinks and very friendly staff. Easily my favourite cafe in York!

Great scones and cool ruins under the floor. I sat here to do some work on a rainy morning. A nice place to work with good customer wifi.

Warm and welcoming little place to stop for breakfast ciabatta and coffee. One man running the show and did a great job. You could see the old Roman walls under the floor. Good value for money.

Advertising the best bacon sandwich in York. Well I’ve not tried every bacon sandwich in York, yet! Bacon sandwich was excellent, coffee was among the best I’ve had & it stayed hot also a good sized cup. It seems like a fair few regulars as a bit of chitchat was going on between them. Prices were not silly either. I will be returning!!!

Warm, inviting and larger than expected from the outside. We stopped in for lunch and ordered the festive feast sandwich - roast turkey, stuffing, bacon, sliced roasties and cranberry sauce. Delicious! Great service too - will definitely pop in again.

Great little store. The couple who run it are wonderfully friendly. After a disappointing visit to another coffee establishment the cheerful welcome from the young lady and the exceptional service and local knowledge from the gentleman turned our day around. Would highly recommend.

Unusual little cafe just under the city wall. Friendly owner. Good coffee and teas. Didn’t try the cakes etc but they looked good.

Friendly welcome, great coffee and cakes, and not too expensive, but not very clean and needs a refurbishment

First visit and it was the ideal place to grab a hot drink and a delicious sandwich. Service was prompt, friendly and accommodating. Great little cafe in a historic location.

A quirky little cafe literally in the walls of York . Lovely coffee and an excellent bacon butty ( in a ciabatta roll) , even if slightly burnt at the edges . Cosy too and particularly welcome on a wet winter afternoon . Cheerful service too .

This has been our "go to" restaurant for our breakfast in the past when we visit York. We arrived at the cafe for our breakfast on a Thursday about 9.30 and the cafe wasn't open, although the website advises an 8.30 opening time. We previously loved the cafe so we walked about for a while & eventually got in just before 10. The food was good, the coffee only warm when it arrived and the owner polite & friendly. However, the floor hadn't been cleaned from the day before and the walls & doors looked like they could do with a wipe down. The interior had changed from the previous visit so maybe there is a makeover in progress? The door was still closed on Saturday when we passed about 9.10 (opening advertised as 9). Amend the website opening times if you can't make it for the specified times.

I had purchased a scone elsewhere and dropped in to sit with a coffee, although the place looked a bit of a mess. The pastry case looked as if it had been picked over several days ago, and was all sweets. My coffee arrived quickly and was good, so I began eating my scone. When the barista came out later to serve another table he told me that I wasn’t allowed to eat it - only food purchased on the premises. I certainly wasn’t keeping my table from other more lucrative business, as there were only 3 other customers. This was my only unpleasant and unwelcoming experience during my visit to York - everyone else has been delightful.

3 adults and 3 kids refused service due to the member of staff not wanting a “large group” in the shop. From entering the shop we were not greeted or shown signs of being accommodated for. We offered to sit in pairs at separate tables, but this was still not okay. Can not comment on the coffee or the food. As a regular visitor to the area I do not intend on returning to cafe!

I regularly pop into Bean and Gone on my way into York. It is very people and dog friendly and I always feel welcome. In addition to the excellent service, the hot chocolate is lush and there is a good range of snacks and cakes....

I've popped in here a few times, the coffee is good and the service is friendly. There is also a decent variety of sandwiches and snacks. Plus you get a little history as there is a perspex floor showing a section of Roman Wall underneath.

Stopped in for lattes and pastries near 1:30pm. Pleasent find with a view of a Roman gate. Coffees were perfect and the pastries were a generous serving at a reasonable price. Hidden next to the Roman rampart, but worth looking for.

In addition to good coffee this shop has the benefit of a viewpoint through its floor of the part of the original Roman fortification that much of the York walls were built upon.

Mi compañero y yo visitamos este bar el 23/02/19. No estaba ocupado, compramos una botella de vino tinto en el bar y pagué con tarjeta. Pensé que la identificación había equivocado mi número al principio, luego de unos segundos, la licitación del bar me dio un recibo por 68. 07! ! ! De repente me di cuenta y se lo devolví y le dije que el vino sólo tenía 10. 00! ! ! Los dos estábamos bebiendo rojo, así que decidimos que era más barato comprar la botella. . . De todos modos, se disculpó y luego pareció desconcertado en cuanto a cómo rectificar la situación. . . (fácil nunca tome 58. 00 más en primer lugar!). Pocos minutos después llegó con 58. 00 en efectivo y un recibo. Tomé el dinero, acepté la disculpa y continué con mi velada. Veinte minutos más tarde, solicitó la devolución del dinero en efectivo porque había decidido que necesitaba acreditar mi cuenta con la máquina de la tarjeta y me dio otro recibo y su número de teléfono móvil en caso de algún problema. Me prometió que había solucionado el reembolso y que habría regresado a mi cuenta la semana siguiente. ¡Ahora son 11 días después y después de innumerables llamadas al banco y al camarero que ahora ha bloqueado mi número! Todavía no hay reembolso! y el gerente Phil nunca se molestó en devolverme la llamada como había prometido. El banco estuvo de acuerdo en que no hay pagos pendientes que vayan a mi cuenta y el PIN se ingresó una vez correctamente, obviamente, de lo contrario, se habría rechazado. Todavía estoy en disputa con este lugar y nunca volveré otra vez!
