Dusk in York

I revisited this place after a prior bad experience and Rhi was amazing and so is their milky bar cocktail. my friends and I can’t stop coming back 🫶

If, unlike me, you're young and love a cocktail this is a great spot.

Great vibes, cool place, and the opening staff the next day were very friendly and found my girlfriend’s wallet when they lost it.

Lovely find, stumbled across it and glad we did. Excellent selection of beers, cocktails (including non alcoholic), even the flat white coffee was amazing, definitely not the Costa rubbish.

Popped in for a coffee and a bite about 2pm, the coffee was excellent as was the pizza slice. Well priced. Nice friendly staff, good vibe.

A great place to go particularly in late afternoons after the coffee shops have closed and before the pubs have opened.

Dusk has its own little vibe and now they have a new bar it seems even better than before great staff and some decent cocktails to boot x

Beautiful interior- so colourful, fun and unique! Cocktails and service top notch. Thank you guys! Keep it up 😉

Lovely bartender. 241 on cocktails great value and amazing vegan options. Wifi as well. Would thoroughly recommended :)

Used to visit for lunch when visiting York. We were surprised to see it had been refurbished and to be fair we weren't that impressed. New menu is pizza only, no atmosphere at all. This place used to be fairly busy and had a good menu and cocktail offers. Disappointed, ended up next door.

This was one of my favourite bars as a student (long live the Milky Bar Kid) but this time around I was popping in to try their Crooked Slice pizza. I got a slice of Truffle Mushroom which really impressed me: sumptuous toppings on wonderfully soft sourdough.

Used to be one of the best bars in York, completely changed target audience and has been changed for the worst

Incredibly disappointed that a venue that prides itself on inclusivity and acceptance then turns around and bars my friend simply for her gender identity. If this establishment refuses to allow trans people the right to use the bathroom whilst also having the trans flag up on the premesis then I will no longer be visiting whenever I'm in York.

Extremely disappointed and disgusted to find a bar that "prides themselves on inclusivity" banned my trans friend simply for using the bathroom.

They barred my friend for being transgender and have since started flying the trans flag in the window for pride month

They have had a trans flag flying in the window for pride month when they have prevented my trans friend from entering the bar purely for being trans it’s disgusting and disrespectful

We absolutely loved the music! Such kind staff, defo one of my favourite york bars!

Wonderful food and cracking service from the lovely bartender Macie

WOW! What amazing cocktails, Tori was an absolutely delightful server.

Lovely staff, great atmosphere and incredible service. Will definitely be coming again🫶🏼

Nice cocktails. Come here for the 2 for 1 it's good value

I was sat here having a last quiet pint when I got surrounded by youngsters who it turned out I taught at primary school taking the p#@s cos I was drinking cider They said hello

Absolutely shocking, sold me an off pint that I drink in my home city and told me it was fine. Made me pay for another after throwing my full pint away that I had one sip of . Looked dirty inside , can imagine they don't know how to keep pipes clean and a good pint. If they had anything about them I think they would have accepted the truth.

Pepperoni pizza really really nice. Awesome vibe in general, friendly servers

Nice little cafe, food was excellent as was the service

I wrote a previous review while very drunk in their well priced 2 for 1 cocktails. They’ve just renovated the place and it now has much more space which is good. Service is always amazing and the staff are lovely

Polite friendly staff good choice of beer and spirits

Called in for drinks on a cold rainy day after enough walking around York. Staff were very nice & polite.

We were a group of 4, and had a very odd experience here. We were having what we thought was a perfectly pleasant post dinner drink but noticed a girl who we thought was a customer frequently walking past us and catching our eye with glaring looks. We thought she was just a drunk customer so we just ignored it. Later in the evening when people were dancing in the bar one of our group of 4 was dancing and within seconds the girl screamed (and I do mean screamed) across the bar that we had to get out. It would seem that she was the manager or at least the most in charge and the bar staff when we paid said they were fearful of her! Needless to say we did leave immediately. It was an entirely bizarre experience. Needless to say we will never go back and would strongly advise avoiding this bar.

Nice enough pub, not many real ales but if your into larger or cocktails then you will like this place.

Fantastic place for a night out.

great pizza, exciting and interesting cocktails and a great atmosphere with good music leads to a good place to start or end a night

Has improved a lot in the last year or so, drink prices during 2-4-1 are hard to beat anywhere else, good service and nice atmosphere. Been coming here for years but it's definitely feeling like a nicer place to get a drink or two.

Staff rude and very slow, good selection of drinks

Really nice experience in this lovely York bar, atmosphere is great and excellent service

Needs a good clean flies all over and the toilets are horrible

I witnessed a female chef shouting at a homeless man forcing him to move some very heavily looking bins and he was struggling it was disgusting behaviour no matter what he had done he did not deserve that attitude towards him I would avoid this place just from that one interaction.

Does exactly as you would expect. Good tunes

Great pizza, amazing staff and good prices... Lived in York for years and never been before, been twice now and excellent every time! On our go to list now. Would recommend the cheese pizza, fresh, crispy base, brilliant toppings, simple but very very good.

Bouncers on a power trip, let our group of girls in ahead of us but got aggressive with their partners when we tried to enter. Really disappointed

Fantastic place. Amazing pizza. Bar staff were fabulous. Such a friendly atmosphere.

Basic but in a good way. When the touristy bits of york get a bit much it's a nice relief. Throw a few candles or glowy lights on the tables and it would be a place to linger for longer.

Friendly bar staff who helped me choose a decent beer. Nice welcoming environment with a quirky layout. Will definitely head to Dusk next time I'm in York.

We were here for pre dinner cocktails when visiting daughter. Nice selection with the Milkybar cocktail an absolute winner!

Delicious pizza and lovely cocktails! Absolutely recommend when in central York.

Great little bar with good atmosphere.

My girlfriend and I went in for some drinks Friday evening. Waited at the bar to be served. We get served, get asked for ID (standard that’s fine), we’re both 22 for context. To which the lady is insanely rude passing around my girlfriends ID round her colleagues laughing at it (but not in a banter-y way, just straight up rude). Then she proceeds to give me the same treatment, saying ah no way you’re old enough. It was just incredibly patronising and rude - she didn’t even laugh it off. Genuinely put me off ever going back, why would I give my business to a place that treats its customers like that.

Worst place to if your over 30 they don't Won't your business

Not the most impressive bar in York but the staff were friendly enough and the beer was ok.

It was a beautiful sunny day and we had our drinks outside. It was absolutely fantastic such a lovely spot xx

Good atmosphere but it's a little loud to talk to people without shouting

Lovely, calm place for lunch and a beer. We loved the delicious pizza with dip! The server was super kind! Thank you so much, we will come again when we are in the area!

Fabulous cocktail deals Lush staff Highly recommended

Good value tasty cocktails, nice atmosphere. Plenty of seating indoor and outdoor.

Went last week and had a wonderful night! Manager was very friendly and attentive. Will definitely come back

Fantastic ‘vibe’ all round! Great for a few drinks, pizza’s cracking too.

Little gem hid down a side street, well worth a visit, staff were lovely.

Always a great place for cocktails. Great atmosphere

Nice bar but feels mainly for students. Staff are welcoming & friendly. Wanted cocktails but sadly none available that I like, No classics but did try a Barak Obama which was ok but not a Cosmopolitan!

Friendly dtaff, great pizza and nice atmosphere

Really enjoying the new weekend music that is being played. Great atmosphere.

Lovely Atmosphere, Loud Alt Music, Fantastic Drinks. MilkyBar Kid is a fan favourite. 2-4-1 cocktails make it even better. One of the stops you should take on a bar crawl in York. Still hasn't changed 2018-2023

Great vibe but made a mistake ordering food. Pizza with trendy name was cremated! Lovely staff.

Great laid back bar! Now serving the excellent Crooked Pizza. Pint and a big slice of pizza! What's not to love😀

Had some nice cheap cocktails worth a go for a few starters at the begining of the night.

Went here mid blackout. Bank shows I bought more than 1 drink so must be good. I think.

Rude bar staff whom chatted away whilst my friend and I waited to be served. Terrible customer service.

We had lunch here during a trip up to York on Friday and really enjoyed it. Bugs Bunny burgers with chips, onion rings, and mochas - all delicious. The lady who served us was very nice too (I didn't get the name unfortunately). Definitely going to be top of our list for food if we come back again.

A hidden gem in a beautiful city. The place was quiet and had a very relaxed atmosphere, a great selection of drinks to choose from. The food menu whilst small, has some great dishes to offer. The food we had was lovely and the hygiene was spot on. The server was polite and made the trip better than most. 10/10, will be going again

Friendly bar staff great food bar prices very reasonable

The share chips were lovely! Great little place for a snack and drink. Will definitely visit again.

4 empty tables and turned away saying they were full not 1 person stood up I think under staffed more like

Popped in with the kids for some drinks and fries. Great 😀

Great bar staff great cocktails

Great bar... Amazing drinks and open till 2am. What more do you want ..

Great food and great service. Always pop in when in York.

Literally the sweetest staff ever. I have embarrassingly ended up fainting but I was helped right away. I felt so safe :) also the drinks are really nice too

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND served by a staff member who did not once say please...used her hands to add fruit to the drinks (didn't wash her hands!! don't know when she last did!!!, also had chipped nail varnish which is a personal pet hate) service was appalling!! Will not visit again!! as a bar manager I really wouldn't tolerate this sort of rude service...I don't post this lightly as I hate to judge a place on one poor experience but it really was awful!!

Very grubby and smelly (urine) outside. Wanted to grab some food before a ghost walk. Arrived around 5.30pm, staff were having a meeting, the guy left covering the bar didn't know when the chefs would be back in the kitchen but thought maybe half hour but he would let us know when they were back, so we grabbed a drink and waited. Around 45mins later a staff member came out saying it would likely be another hour at least so we'd best go elsewhere. During the next few mins half dozen of the staff sat out front smoking. Thank you for ushering us away, we found a much better and more comfortable place to eat.

Love this place, staff are great very friendly. Place has a cool vibe & it's very reasonable.

Great little bar hidden down the side street, get away from the crowd's and have a nice cheap pint.

Cheap and cheerful town centre bar with a young crowd

We went on a Thursday and were easily able to get a table, staff were friendly and helpful, drinks were reasonably priced, nice background music but still easily able to hold a conversation with friends.

Chill student spot, especially when it's 2-4-1 on cocktails :) Decently priced as well

We sat outside and had a pint of San Miguel, it was a very hot day and we spotted the outside seating. Prices reasonable, staff nice, we didnt eat here but the food looked great!

One of the best burgers I've had in a long time! Well put together and a hearty portion size. Good choice of ales, larger and ciders plus bottles of guest beer. The staff were nice ans polite and ever accommodated us even though we had too push chairs with us that had taken up quite a bit of space. As its in the centre of York, don't expect a quiet drink. The atmosphere is loud and buzzing. Highly recommend the Scooby Doo burger!!!

Very friendly, helpful staff. Nice vibe about the place.

Ridiculous 10 of us came in for a drink prepared to spend a lot of money, got sent away because they only do tables of 6 because it’s table service. We said can’t we be a 6 and 4 and they said no. Never felt less welcome somewhere, they’ve lost about £100 for some ridiculous rule.

Cocktails were good! Usually nice and quiet

Lovely place to be in a summer's night beers good to ,get down there what you waiting for???

The decor is great, the music is my favourite and the cocktails were delicious! The staff were gracious and friendly, I'll be back when in York again!

Really gone to the dogs since dylhouse left, only joking live the bar a must go in york

Great bar (from what I can remember) friendly staff and good atmosphere. Was out for a work social and everyone enjoyed themselves 👍

We ordered drinks and watched the person on the bar put no alcohol in it. Extremely disappointed £9 down the drain.

Cocktails tasted good and were great value at 2-4-1 but the staffs attitude was appalling. As we waited at the bar, we witnessed staff arguing with other customers and were also rude to our group. Would rather pay more for drinks with a better atmosphere in future.

Always open late, regular two for one on cocktails.

The staf and the food was amazing, keep up the good work,,

Sat outside in the sun yesterday and enjoyed 2 for 1 cocktails! Friendly warm staff and drinks were lovely.

A rather unpleasant atmosphere, with staff that don't seem to know how what the alcohol they have on offer actually is.

My favourite place in York for something to eat with a coffee as staff are helpful and professional the food is freshly cooked and tasty at reasonable prices highly recommended...
