Functions at the churchill in York

From arrival, to breakfast, to departure all the staff were friendly and very helpful. The only negative was our room was very small and was starting to show signs of age ( loose fitting, wardrobe doors hard to close and lots of paint chips and marks on the walls). The room was however spotless and the bed very comfortable. As others have stated, the room did get very warm even for December but once the radiator was turned down, all was well. Breakfast was lovely with plenty of choice and excellent service. We will stay again but probably avoid summer stays unless air conditioning is installed during a hotel refurb.

We have had a lovely weekend break. Highly recommended. We would come back.

The hotel is lovely and in a fantastic location with short walk to the town centre and the staff are really nice, the car park is modest so I’d definitely reserve the parking as it is limited in the area.

Great stay room 134 noisy got a move to 135 much better staff great breakfast fast amazing thank for a great stay

Location good as plenty of parking and easy to find as set back from a main through road to York centre. 10min walk from the cathedral to the door of the hotel, lovely outdoors space, B beautiful decor inside the actual hotel Staff kind and accommodating Wood fire pizza deals are lovely and great value Not the cheapest place to be in your York but one of the classiest places to be or visit and has a good atmosphere as well.

Very attractive outdoor area. Food ok. Service good

What a wonderful place to stay. The staff are so welcoming and the food and drink is high quality. We had a lovely stay in York. Thank you.

Wonderful hotel with heated outside garden - cosy restaurant - beautiful stylish rooms and great food and service

Llamé para un puesto de copas estando en la ciudad por la noche y se sentó afuera. Es como volver a los días de confinamiento. Estás apuntando hacia un código de barras para obtener un menú y si señalas esto obtienes un tipo muy stroppy afuera que lo dijo de esa manera o ve alrededor del lado al bar del hotel. ¿Qué hace exactamente este tipo. Mala atención al cliente en el mejor de los casos. Terminó un buen día con mal rollo, muchas gracias por eso.

The hotel is perfectly located being a short walk into the center of York. The hotel and the rooms are nice, but maybe a little small. Overall I would stay again.

We didnt stay here but did have dinner from the wood fired pizza oven. They were delicious, service was great, staff very friendly and so happy to help. 100% recommend it for food. Close to town too.

We have eaten here on several occasions and really enjoy the food in the Beer Garden, however having said that we always find our greeting from the meet/greet person Wayne a little rude and as if we are in someway inconveniencing him. He was stood on his phone for the duration of our visit and he only put it away when new diners arrived. How rude of them to interrupt his scrolling! He also points out on arrival that we had to order through an app and when my friend tried but failed to order drinks through the app she asked him about ordering some. He then directed her to the bar and said she could go and get them herself. He barely looked up at her and was clearly otherwise occupied with far more important things than customer service! This isn’t the cheapest place to drink in York and I think at the very least table service could be offered to take orders if you do not wish to use the app! It’s such a shame because the Pizzas are lovely but the rudeness of Wayne always irks us.

Posto incantevole, personale gentile e sorridente, pizza molto buona (buonissima offerta pizza e birra a 12,95) cucinata da pizzaiolo italiano nel forno a legna. Unico neo se non prenoti devi ordinare tramite Qcode sul tavolo e non è facilissimo da utilizzare. Comunque ci tornerei!!!

Great location and service, lovely food with gluten free options. Gluten free and regular pizza excellent. Platers were delicious, gluten free bread was a little disappointing as it was a sliced loaf not the lovely sourdough like the regular bread. Enjoyable evening

We have stayed in the Churchill four times and have loved it every time. The staff are friendly and the bunker room in particular is absolutely fantastic. The food whether you order from the pizza oven or the restaurant is incredible and the bar serves some lovely cocktails. The hotel is a few minute walk from the town center with its own private parking which is fantastic.

Very tiny room. Beautiful bathroom though and sometimes you can even get hot water...if you wait a very long time

Awful experience. I have stayed in 100s of hotels in over 60 countries and this must be the worst sleep I have had. The rooms are extremely hot and stuffy. There is no ventilation. I stayed with my wife in early May, which is not a hot time of year, and the room was over 30oC (measured on smart watch). We had to use 2 fans on us all night to try to sleep and still barely slept. Just an absolutely horrible experience. I spoke to the reception team and their reply was 'well we are fully booked every night so other people clearly don't mind it'. This is unprofessional and condescending. He then said it's an old building and there's nothing they can do the temperature. How about ventilation? Air conditioning? I very very rarely leave bad reviews but this hotel is the most deserving of one I can think of. Oh and we had this pleasure for over £100 per night. What a joke. Would rather have slept in my car.

Very impressed with this hotel and one to return too again in the future. The room was spotless and very comfortable, front of house staff were incredibly welcoming and more than happy to advise on things to do whilst in York. We only had breakfast on our last day but it was great! A good range of dishes for a good price. The only downside would be the parking fee of £15 per night. This is something that I would've preferred to know when booking the room as it was mentioned during check-in, and it seemed like a known fact in the way it was relayed. I booked through Expedia and nothing stated a parking fee on the website. Other than that, we had a great stay and would recommend to anyone, especially for the location being a quick 10 minute walk from the centre.

Great little hotel,not in big chain but location is ideal for York attractions and parks and gardens, some beautiful quirky rooms and staff were really friendly and helpful without any fuss.Pay parking but still more convenient and less than any of overnight or weekend charges. Lovely food and garden beautiful and relaxing for drinks. Pizza was a treat. Definitely be going back soon.

We passed by here a couple of times and it looked so nice, so we finally stopped in. It was super! Nice warm bubble on an overcast evening, pizza was amazing, service was great! Something slightly different, worth a try!

All the staff were excellent, they were always happy to help. Restaurant food was delicious. Would definitely stay here again.

The Churchill Hotel is located a 5 minute walk from York Minster & is perfectly situated for most of Yorks sights. The staff are fantastic, very friendly & most helpful. Reception is very knowledgable. The rooms are very clean & the bathrooms are spotless. Food was made to order by their chefs & we couldn't fault it & trust me we are very picky bunch! Excellent. Certainly not the cheapest choice but I can't pick on a single thing that was a negative.

Beautiful place to stay in York, perfectly placed only minutes from the city centre. Would definitely stay again.

Hotel entrega o que promete, excelente restaurante e pub, quartos confortáveis e de fina decoração.

Lovely staff, Receptionists extremely helpful and friendly. Lovely rooms.

日本から行きました🗾オシャレな設備や部屋の画像を見てウェブで（2/1〜2/5の朝迄）予約しました。スタッフさんの笑顔と気配りに感謝です。イグルーのテントで食事した時の男性スタッフ、バーの女性スタッフ、フロントの男性、女性スタッフ、ルームを清掃してくれた男性と女性のスタッフ、そして　ホテルから帰るときに駅まで送ってくれた男性スタッフを含めて全て感謝です。初めてのヨークの旅を最高の気分で過ごさせていただきました。有難うございます💚

Absolutely gorgeous room, front of house staff were so professional, polite and very helpful. Can not wait to return

Impecável... recomendo essa experiência... perfeito!

Attended today for brunch witching one of their igloos. Fantastic experience. All of us really enjoyed the igloo, which was heated and playing faint music. The staff were fantastic, friendly and helpful with the food been great and very good value. This will become one of our family favourites! Many thanks Churchill’s.

We spent a wonderful weekend at the Churchill Hotel is which is a simple 12 mins walk from York Rail station across the river Ouse. All the team were incredibly authentic, friendly and professional throughout our stay whether on reception, breakfast or bar. Our double room was ‘toasty’ warm. Equipped with a rainfall shower, the most comfortable bed we have slept in! Plenty of storage room for our clothes. We enjoyed some lovely well cooked & prepared bar food on Saturday along with a delicious breakfast Sunday morning with plenty of Yorkshire tea with our English breakfast. Sumptuous. The hotel is a simple, straightforward walk to the Christmas market on Parliament Street and Shambles Square which are very busy but include some wonderful craft stalls locally made.

Great pizzas on the patio before rugby up the road. Tasty food, decent price and prompt friendly service. We’ll be back soon!

My friends and I enjoyed 2 dinners at this venue. The service and food was excellent. I would recommend it to anyone.

The pizza my husband and I had in the beer garden at Churchill's Hotel in York was the best pizza we've had in years. It's no wonder since they are prepared and cooked by Enrico, who hails from the pizza capital of the world, Naples. So, if you're craving a pizza in York, go to the beer garden at Churchill's Hotel. You won't be disappointed.

20 of us part of a wedding group booked tables in garden . Absolutely terrible service. We ordered pizza in separate groups of 4 at different time. Some of us had to wait 90 minutes for them. Plus kept waiting 30 minutes for our drinks order. Awful service. Won't be going there again .

Couldn’t get the app to work to order which was a bit frustrating but the pizza was delicious. We will definitely go back. Didn’t have to wait long for food. Lovely garden as well, there was a very nice atmosphere and fantastic food at a good price.

Booked a table in the beer garden for drinks and a pizza. The garden is very nice and had a good atmosphere. The young staff were very friendly and helpful when ordering food and drinks. We waited a long time for out pizzas, but we could see how busy the pizza kitchen was, they never stopped! Eventually we got our pizzas and they were really delicious. Would definitely go back.

My wife and I have stayed for 4 nights and can I just say it’s been a great experience and break for us. The four poster bed we want to take home with us because it’s wow and very comfortable, the room is very clean, comfortable and very spacious even has a luxurious bath in the room. As for the food it’s delicious with no complaints and what drinks we have had (soft drinks because teetotals) have been nice and refreshing. This is a first, can we have a shout out for Ian and the girls on the front desk and Helen the waitress in the kitchen who made us feel very welcome and part of the family and bent over backwards to make our stay enjoyable.enough said.

Had been staying in clementines hotel down the road. (Great place by the way!) and after a meal at the Ivy around 22.30pm we decided to head here for a drink - nothing special, nothing fancy. Just x2 G&Ts please barman!!! It was a last minute decision to head in, and we saw the lovely pods out front, and the nice seating area under some heaters and thought... why not!? I'll tell you why not... the service is non existent! We walked in, and three women all stood around a desk asked if they could help, so we said we just wanted a drink, we were asked if we were staying in the hotel, which we replied no... we aren't. After some incredibly obnoxious eye-rolling and huffing and puffing about this, one said sorry the bar is closed, then another said well, if you're just having one you can... at the bar, we received the staple Churchill hotel welcome.. 'bars shut'. Ok, that's fine, but the lady out front said it was open if we are just having one...? again, another sigh! i know how you feel mate, how terrible someone wants a drink in a bar! we stupidly got a drink, sat outside, decided the G&T wasn't even that nice, and carried on. Got back to our hotel bar, welcomed like we were humans and spent a few pennies! I can wholeheartedly say, I wouldn't go back. would recommend avoiding this place for a last minute drink, at all costs.

A little out of main city centre but a lovely Hotel, friendly staff. We had a 3 course meal with a bottle of Prosecco voucher. Good service and nice food

We stayed at The Churchill for 2 nights in a family room. The room was clean and tidy, but definitely tight for 3 adults (son is 18). That said, it was an excellent bargain for York - <10 mins walk from cathedral and other York attractions (E.g., York Chocolate Story and Jovik Viking experience). Breakfasts were hearty and delicious. Dinner was ok, but we found another place within walking distance that was amazing (TAAS - definitely order the Nepalese options!).

Booked a Igloo for in the garden area on line, after looking at website and said dog friendly. When we arrived to be told No Dogs allowed in the Igloos, yet website does not say so, we had to leave as no availability in the areas where dogs allowed. Would not refund our booking fee.

My family and I had a lovely evening meal in the beer garden outside the hotel - the pizzas were freshly cooked in a small hut outside and they were great. The drinks / meal service was very friendly and efficient. We couldn't fault anything and look forward to returning soon.

Had a lovely evening on the terrace. Food and drink were served quickly and pizzas as good as usual. Staff were very friendly and efficient and the manageress took the time to welcome customers and ensure everything was ok. We would definitely recommend this place for el fresco dining in York.

I don't normally write reviews but felt it was necessary having wanted to visit for well over a year now.. Myself and my partner went here to celebrate our 3 year anniversary, the food was great and the area is lovely, however, staff were more...

We ate in the beer garden a family of 4 our pizzas and drinks fine, all ordered via QR. We live in York and came here often after covid to sit in beer garden. Unfortunately the female who runs the show - because that’s what...

We had a lovely evening with friends and family . The pizza was superb , I had two frozen margaritas and they were superb !

This place has got the concept and service in the outside space completely wrong. In theory it should be pretty hard to mess up, it’s a lovely garden, great setting, good location and in between 2 of the biggest schools in York with parents passing...

Just visited with a group of friends and it was the worst visit I’ve ever had! After many years staying and dining, this place has massively gone done hill. I don’t feel that tables full of bird pop (clearly not a day old), poor customer...

Lovely garden with patio heaters in the evening so no-one was cold. Good selection of drinks, didn't eat here.

Bedlam with the ordering on Mobile Phone, didn't wait to complete the process. I fail to see why my email address has anything to do with my order.

We are regular visitors to Churchills for many different reasons. Great setting. Fantastic pizza’s. Reasonably priced drinks. But the standout has to be service. The garden is managed by Wayne and the team and they never disappoint. Despite been part of a large party we...

This place offers pizza and a beer for £12.95 but make sure you read the small print, because there’s a cover charge of £75 per group for the privilege of sitting in a plastic tent outside. This charge is described as a deposit, which would...

We went to the Churchill as a family to celebrate a birthday. We booked a little outside pod with COVID safety in mind. As we were taken to our pod we were informed that we’d need to move our car (parked in their car park)...

Booked an igloo with group of ladies. Loved the concept and it was a great experience. Everything brought to you and ordered via the app (this was a little confusing to use to start with) All the drinks and food we ordered were thoroughly enjoyed....

Ordered with friends at the same time on same app and same order number. Food arrrived separately. No option to ask for water. Staff seemed to have no customer service skills. Too much trouble to get a dip for pizza. Won’t be returning.

Visited twice over the weekend and enjoyed drinks and good food from the summer menu. Enjoyed sitting outside utilising both the umbrellas and heaters. Staff excellent and Wayne looked after us too! Very enjoyable place to spend a couple of evenings.

We were staying in a B&B close by for an anniversary mini break and booked an outside table at The Churchill for evening drinks and food. We arrived on time at 7.30 and were shown to our table by a pleasant young man. It looked...

On arrival at the beer garden, we were greeted politely, warmly and enthusiastically by Wayne, who seated us quickly and explained the ordering process. All staff were friendly and efficient, making us feel welcome. The food was lovely (sharing platter of meat and cheeses) and...

PLEASE don't stay in room 120, the stench from the drains in the bathroom kept waking me up, even asked reception to sort, but they didn't. The recycling came at 5 am, and woke us , plus all the delivery vans very early shuffling stuff...

Don't waste your time or money. Rude, unhelpful, obnoxious staff. Waited for a long time to be seated at one of many available tables, then ignored for a long period of time. Eventually got a member of staff who was rude and unhelpful. After wasting...

We pre-booked our table and luckily the weather was great. The service was very friendly and we were served very promptly. We used the app which was very easy to use. Our pizzas were really good. We had a really nice afternoon and would definitely...

Booked a table for 4 at 6pm on Thursday 8th July in the beer garden. Chose The Churchill as our guests needed to travel home and thought that a pizza and beer/wine would just fit the bill. Arrived a few minutes early and were shown...

Unfortunaley it was raining on visit. Table of 6 booked. Was put under an umbrella/parasol table- Which was OK, but the umbrella could have done with being slightly larger so as the rain would be stopped from hitting the back of the chairs and your...

Fortunately been there just for a couple of drinks as our hotel didn’t have a beer garden. At exactly 22:00 a guy who we believe was the manager told all the tables that they are closing and to finish off our drinks “nothing wrong if...

Churchill’s you were amazing! Ordering & payment is done via your phone with bar codes etc.. very easy. Lovely atmosphere, exactly as it had seemed when I’ve passed by.. I shared a pizza & meat platter & some chips with my children. The pizza was...

great heated Parasols and when we visited the heavens opened and we kept dry and the throws on the chairs helped to keep my wife warmer plus the overhead heaters. Staff were also nice and efficient.

We love the Churchill Beer Garden and have been frequent visitors since it opened. Normally a really great experience, unfortunately, our visit on Saturday night was very different due to the rudeness of one member of staff. You have to use an app to order...

Had dinner and breakfast Good quailty of food Well cooked Something for everyone Real yorkshire breakfast

good choice of meals starters and sweets wine list has good choices service good same wait depending on what you order

Went for my wives birthday ,i had the steak pie which i found to have a small amount of filling in ( steak) .My wife had the camembert tart with figs with not much taste , Way over priced

Had a lovely meal here on a wet October evening. The steak was perfect as was the rest of the meal, not to mention the efficient service.

the beer is good, the food, too, but only the usual Pub grub. Sometimes it takes a while to get the meal served. But the garden is lovely and cool in summer

Great dining experience! Outside there was a well looked after garden and grounds. There was also a covered smoking area. Inside: Lovely, interesting and well decorated foyer and dining rooms. Staff: attentive and service was very good and timely. Menu: quite traditional but varied, some...

Meal with friends. First impression we were impressed that the foyer and restaurant had the décor of the Churchill era. The ham croquettes were a nice starter the chicken main course was very dry and the 'relish' was some kind of brown sauce which tasted...

Booked in advance for a "good table" to celebrate my wife's birthday. Very attentive and arranged for us to sit in the window overlooking the gardens - just perfect. All food delicious including the fine range of champagnes on offer. Lovely touch to decorate my...

From the outside the hotel looked great so I checked out their website and saw we could have a casual meal as non residents in their Wellington bar. The hotel is nice inside and a friendly receptionist took us through to the Wellington bar. We...

Lovely stay at the Churchill ! We decided to spend New Year's Eve at the hotel ! The function was lovely and we've already booked for this year ! Well done everyone concerned a lovely evening !

We had stayed before and enjoyed it. This time went for meal only. Sad to say the meal was let down by poor service. We ordered wine, but it did not come with 1st course. We had to ask for it, & when it came...

We stayed here for one night and ate at the Hotel both in the evening and for breakfast. The evening meal was superb. We chose the special of the day being soup, one of the best steaks I have ever tasted and followed by an...

This restaurant pays a lot of attention to atmosphere. It would be better if more emphasis were placed on the quality of the food. My husband had bangers and mash which he said tasted like pub food but cost much more. I had tomato risotto...

We were recommended The Churchill by our B&B,so we went on our way into York and booked for the Piano bar later that evening.We had the 3 course meal and we couldn't fault it,every course was superb and the waiters and waitress were very attentive...

We did not attend a function here but had a very good evening meal and although the surroundings were quite grand the meal cost a similar amount to other places where we had evening meals - very impressed with York overall for the very reasonable...

I went to the Churchill for dinner on Saturday 12th April, having chosen it because it was close to the b & b where I was staying. Also I wanted to eat a civilised time (not too early) and avoid the ambience of city centre...
