NO.88 Walmgate in York

The food was very sub par. Waitress needs to get another job as she either was having a bad day or hates her job.

Service incredibly slow...any time we went to the bar to ask for anything we were told to take a seat but the 1 member of staff then took 15 mins to come over each time (there were only 2 tables taken so practically empty). No kids menu and limited main menu. Ordered 3 pizzas at £16 each and couldn't believe our eyes when Chicago Town stuffed crust pizza from the supermarket freezer was put in front of us. Avoid avoid avoid!

If you want to pay £16 for a medium pepperoni Chicago Town pizza then this is the place! Shocking that this is what is served at a restaurant. A warning to other guests to avoid, as we will be doing in the future.

Just popped in for a drink, friendly service.

Excellent service and friendly staff. Highly recommended

Alex, our waiter was EXCELLENT, food was simple, not impressive

Just called in for drinks. Relaxing environment, good service

Would never go back, Ordered a pizza £17 (not cheap) The server was polite, she told us the pizza oven needed to warm up which would take a while or the pizza would be cold in the middle. Not a problem we waited. After a very long wait the pizza arrived The cheese had solidified it was that cold, Base was icy cold. Not just cold ice cold. We reported it to the server she apologised and said a new one would be made After a not so long wait a brand new pizza arrived it seemed to be hot but again in the middle it was still frozen. We had waited that long we just ploughed through and ate it. Right at the start the server said we will warm the oven so pizza not cold in the middle. This sounds to me like it happens a lot. The bases are obviously frozen maybe the pizza is as well. Not what you expect for £17 for a 12” pizza. The server reduced the bill for us which we appreciate. But it was an awful experience

I've been to better places. Staff with better attitude, warm, kind and friendly. But this place is the complete opposite of that.

This is the restaurant in the Hotel Indigo. As Indigo restaurants go, I would rank this one below Chester and Liverpool, but above Manchester and far, far above Glasgow. Bright and airy premises, this is mainly laid out for dining, so there isn’t a massive amount of bar seating, but what they have works. The bar is well run and sells a couple of draft lagers – nothing too exciting though, just Heineken and Amstel. The food menu is quite limited, mainly a pizza menu – used to do more in the past but I expect suffers a bit due to location – hard to compete with the plethora of offerings on Walmgate. Breakfast in the morning here is excellent – a full slate of cooked offerings are available, alongside a heaving breakfast table of pastries and other items. Operating the juice was complicated, but I got there in the end. The full Yorkshire breakfast was excellent – bonus marks for the big wedge of black pudding. Nice. Might be nicer if the lighting was dimmed a little in the evenings and if there was a bit more soft seating for drinks in the bar, but otherwise a decent venue if you’re staying in the hotel.

This is a fantastic hotel. Both in friendliness, room standard and helpfulness. Easy place to be social and a touch of American vibe. Special thanks to Jojo and Langford at the bar for the wonderful Carmac!!

I’ve commented on this restaurant on my review of Hotel Indigo but wanted to add on here. Pizza delicious. Pimms Delicious. Breakfast Delicious. Caramac cocktail out of this world. Didn’t particularly taste like a Caramac but it was sweet and creamy and delicious. Extremely Drinkable. I’ve not Stopped day dreaming of it for 24 hours now and I’m really Wanting to recreate it at Home.

The Restaurant is part of the Hotel Indigo, but mainly serves the Hotel breakfast. However we were suprised to learn that we had to book a time slot for breakfast, presumably because the restaurant is small for the number of rooms in the Hotel. I understand this reason as it will minimise the wait time for people, but sometimes when on holiday, you don't know what time you will wake up and want breakfast. The service was managed by 3-4 people who greeted, took food orders (It's a la carte for cooked items), served and cleared tables. As a result there is no continuity as everyone is trying to do everything. This led, on our second morning, to us being seated, given coffee, and had our cereals and had to try and get someones attention as our cooked order hadn't been taken though others arriving after us had. The counter to this is the quality of the food. The cereal and fruit options were more appealing than most hotels as were the breads and pastries. The main difference was in the hot food, the scrambled eggs with salmon, was good as were the Eggs benedict, the poached eggs being cooked perfectly. All in all a good breakfast.

The breakfast I’d bounteous and plentiful with a great choice and bottomless coffee. The full English is to be recommended but the continental is also good

Visited this restaurant as we were staying at the hotel indigo and this restaurant is part of the hotel. When I booked I was under the impression this was a restaurant serving 'warm Yorkshire hospitality with delicious Yorkshire food' (as per the website) I was more than disappointed to find that this had been changed (nobody could actually tell me when!?) to a restaurant serving 7 pre made pizza's and NOTHING ELSE, literally nothing, not even fries! The weekend away was my husbands birthday treat and a lovely meal in the hotel should have been part of that -sadly not, no apologies, just 'sorry we don't serve real food anymore'. So we had pizza, it was nice enough, nothing special, and ordered drinks. I noticed that our bill was considerably more than I thought it should be so asked for an itemised receipt. The young lady looked suitably embarrassed and passed it to me whereby I noticed I had been charged nearly £4 in 'service charges' - I asked what this was and was advised that the till does it automatically????? I have heard of service charge for large groups but this was me and my hubby ordering a drink and pizza AT THE BAR. To say I am unimpressed is an understatement. Poor show from a decent hotel chain.

It pains me to write this review because our issue was not entirely the fault of the hotel but feel we need to warn other customers to avoid an embarrassing situation like we had today, we bought a voucher from groupon which expires end of November this year, the booking was made through the website and confirmed (I assumed with the restaurant) for 1pm today. After booking a day off work and travelling and parking in town we were told there was no record of our booking and they don’t offer afternoon tea anymore. Although perfectly polite no attempt was made to appease the situation I was simply told to complain to groupon. Now at some point this establishment has taken and been paid for groupon vouchers so I feel that a little more should have been done to try and honour the voucher or offer an alternative. As it happens we had no choice but to leave and find an alternative place to eat - (I’m heavily pregnant and without a booking on a busy Friday afternoon this was not easy). I would advise management to talk to groupon about this issue to avoid anyone else turning up before the offer expires!! The restaurant looked lovely but unsurprisingly we won’t be returning!

Visited here as part of our hotel stay ..breakfast was very nice as was the evening meal ..restaurant was spacious and spotlessly clean ..the lady serving and waiting tables was lovely and very friendly and helpful…Covid practices were very strict here and were adhered to .

Locally sourced good food and an interesting menu attracted us. The restaurant itself is a bit soulless but the staff more than make up for it. Our server was attentive and friendly. The goulash and Thai Chicken dishes were exceptionally good.

Ate here as the restaurant is part of the hotel - lockdown has made the place very quiet. The food was tasty - we had burgers followed by cheesecake and the service was excellent. Heavenly, our waitress (yes, really), was friendly and unfazed when I accidentally spilled wine (mostly on my wife).

We’ve eaten here in the past and REALLY enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Unfortunately, due to lockdown, what was inviting is now a shadow. The room has been stripped down to bare essentials. We saw only 2 more people during our 75 minute meal. The waiter was pleasant and chatty; the food he brought was tepid and poorly cooked. As customers of the Indigo Hotel we’ve found this to be a perfect partner..But no more. I must add that the Hotel breakfast served in the same room was completely different - the food good and the service to match. Why is the evening restaurant so poor?

We went on a Wednesday night - very quiet. However the food was beautifully presented and tasted very good.

We were staying in the hotel so only ate breakfast here but it was very substantial with lots of veggie options.

Just had a lovely meal at this hotel restaurant . Oscar was our waiter & we can commend him on a excellent job very attentive to our requests 👍

We had a really wonderful time celebrating our wedding anniversary with family including our 2 year old granddaughter. We were made very welcome, the food was excellent. Sandwiches, scones, cakes and macarons with prosecco. Attentive service, even crayons brought for granddaughter to keep her entertained while the grown-ups chatted. Nice ambience, lovely food and friendly staff. Thank you.

We turned up for afternoon tea, we had booked for 1pm and turned up much earlier, we were prepared to wait but it was no bother, we were given a choice of seating, we were served really quickly , the sandwiches were lovely, obviously made very fresh, cakes and scone were very very fresh and light. We were offered more tea and water, we did not feel rushed or bothered in any way. Thank you and keep up the good work

We had afternoon tea at NO.88 Walmgate for my grandparent's wedding anniversary. We had great service by the waitress who served us. The food arrived promptly and was delicious, with good veggie options! Highly recommend

Starter: Nachos, tasted undercooked and they were hardly any cheese on the nachos. Avocado was not fresh, it was brown. Main: chicken tikka masala, the rice was overcooked. Sauce taste of old and not fresh. chicken meat was full of fat and tendons.Tagliatelle, vegetables were not grilled but cooked with the tomato sauce and the tomato sauce were probably precooked or not homemade.The tables were not emptied/clean after the customers left, food left stayed more than 1 hour on the table.

Popped in here for a few drinks and planned to eat after but it was so cold due the air con decided against eating here and went else where . I will say it’s a lovely looking restaurant and staff were friendly and drinks nice

Last night at the hotel made the restaurant a great location after a long day.Although not a massive menu, there's plenty to choose from. Friendly staff, fantastic food and good selection of drinks from the bar, great modern surroundings.

Fuimos a tomar el té de la tarde un sábado como un regalo especial para un cumpleaños número 50 y quedamos muy decepcionados, llegaron los puestos de pasteles y se veían encantadores, sin embargo: el sándwich, el pan estaba seco [se había dejado reposar] y el queso no sabía a fresco, los pasteles encontraron un trozo de plástico duro transparente en uno, dado a la camarera que se disculpó pero no se dijo nada más, llegó el té y estaba tibio, ordenó otra olla que estaba caliente, también una de las sábanas las servilletas tenían pintalabios y tuvieron que ser reemplazadas. Lo que lo hizo aún peor fue el hecho de que el restaurante estaba totalmente vacío, por lo que solo tenían que ocuparse de nuestra mesa, la única gracia salvadora fue el hecho de que el personal era encantador.

Bueno, como si aún no estuviéramos impresionados por el hotel, bajamos a cenar al No 88 y nos recibe y trata un personal amable y cordial y una excelente comida.Comencé con sopa de guisantes y menta y salchichas de jabalí y puré de colcannon, ambas deliciosas, y mi compañero fue por los panes mixtos y el aceite de arranque y el pollo tikka y el arroz con naans, popadums y pepinillos, le encantó. las raciones son muy generosas y lamentablemente no tuvimos espacio para el pudín, pero sobre todo es muy sabroso, bien presentado y servido con una sonrisa.El desayuno se servía con las mismas sonrisas alegres y entusiasmo, y nos invitaron a elegir entre una variedad de embutidos y quesos, varios pasteles y cereales, una selección de desayuno cocinado, panqueques y jarabe, tostadas y mermeladas, jugos y batidos e incluso muffins. .El inglés completo cocinado es perfecto, bien cocinado y tan agradable a la vista como al paladar, mi único deseo era que mi barriga no fuera tan grande como mis ojos, estábamos llenos.Gracias a todo el personal, su servicio es fabuloso y su comida encantadora, nos vemos pronto.

¡Así que visité a mi nuevo esposo por algo de comida y qué hermosa comida era! El menú del almuerzo era bastante pequeño y simple, lo que nos gustó!Mi única queja fue cuando fui a pedir un cóctel, el hombre detrás del bar dijo que estaba preparando un carrito para entrenar cócteles con el personal para que pudiera obtener uno gratis 30 minutos después, todavía no había cóctel, pero aparte de eso, volvería a comer aquí. !

Wir haben in diesem Hotel gewohnt. Die Zimmer sind super, auch das Frühstück können wir nur empfehlen (sehr viel Obst). Am ersten Abend waren wir im Restaurant essen. Das hat uns leider nicht so gut gefallen. Geschmacklich eher flach und auch nicht besonder appetitlich.Wir empfehlen das Lokal auf der anderen Strassenseite "The Press Kitchen": Genial !

The food was so nice we only had food one in 3 days but it was so nice wish I had more there staff in the bar thankyou for a nice weekend drink

Once again our stay at the hotel indigo was fab the staff are there for you 24 hours a day the rooms are spotless and very comfertable breakfast superb with a great choice and a 24 hour bar fab position for the town centre and bars and cafes in walking distance we have booked again for Xmas

We have stayed at The Indigo before and had a lovely time, so thought we'd try the restaurant when we were back in York to attend an event.

We booked to stay at Hotel Indigo for our anniversary - the hotel room was great, no complaints.

The restaurant looked inviting as we passed by so we called in for dinner, I wish we’d walked on! It was early evening mid week, only a few people in, the menu wasn’t very exciting but we decided to eat there anyway. Very attractive decor, with clean modern toilets, however the service was very slow and the food disappointing. We waited for 30 mins for our starter (soup of the day and deep fried Halloumi cheese and salsa) when it finally arrived, I mentioned how long we had waited and the reply was ‘the chef had to make the soup from scratch’. It was the soup for the day they should have had a big pot of it! The soup was just warm, the other starter was very cool and the salsa (actually a creamy spicy dip) was out of the fridge, not impressed. A further 10 mins after the plates were cleared the mains arrived, mixed grill and gammon. The gammon and meat on the grill were fine, no complaints but the chips were discussing..... big fat chunky wedges, soggy and burnt with the skin on, awful. The bill was £60 including one beer and a g&t.; We certainly won’t be returning

we were staying in the hotel so decided to eat in the restaurant on the first night, arrived about 9, ordered a soup starter and a gammon main meal, unfortunately the soup was so distasteful we had to send it back.

Decided to eat in the hotel and glad I did. Really nice buzzy atmosphere with a very friendly welcome from the bar manager and great service from the young staff.

Excellent little and friendly place. Food excellent. A great find. We both had steaks cooked to perfection. Great choice.

This visit was rather disappointing. The charcuterie board starter was of poor quality. The turkey served instead of the advertised ham was cheap reconstituted sliced meat, with gristle and grey meat. The cheddar cheese served had several sections of mould on one end, clearly the end of the block. When these issues were raised with a member of staff, the comment was made that they had recently had feedback that the board was the best a customer had ever had. The turkey and cheese was replaced, with slightly better turkey and cheese, which had clearly been used as the block cheese which had been used for grating.

Attached to Indigo Hotel, nice friendly bar/Restaurant - well stocked bar with lots of Gins, local ales etc etc, restaurant serving traditional Yorkshire food, with a modern twist, good value, good food - tremendous staff

Food & drink is fantastic. Staff are extremely helpful from start to finish and couldn't do enough for you. A great place to dine or to drink OR BOTH, when you're visiting the city or even if you live there! A great treat.

Let's be honest here- after a dreadful visit in February we would never have returned to 88 Walmgate unless the management had made us an offer too good to refuse! This is the first establishment where I have complained and they have actually listened and done something concrete to make it up to us.

We were greeted warmly as soon as we entered, the staff were very friendly, attentive and went above and beyond. We didn’t have to wait long for our food. It was substantial, well presented and tasty.

Ordered 2 chicken cesears salads came with hardly any chicken an lots of olives which weren't on the menu. Chips were far too salty. Sausage an mash but was over priced considering you got no vegetables

Stopped in on the way to the Barbican. The onion rings were awesome! Pleasant surroundings, a good selection of cocktails and a gin palace

Very good breakfast menu and lovely friendly staff. Well done for your fabulous food and I will definitely eat there again if I have the chance.

Very friendly, helpful staff, good food reasonably priced. Ambiance in the bistro/lounge great. Would visit again.

Very little choice and a long wait. Only one steak available but not five in restaurant? Breakfast lovely.

Living so nearby this trendy looking bar we opted to pop in this evening for a drink or two and a bite to eat.

Had a 2 night stay in the hotel and after all the other nearby restaurants were full, seams booking is required on those, we decided to eat in the restaurant, which was very empty, I think because of the odd menu. It’s mainly a tapas style so you need to order 2 or more dishes to have enough. The price does reflect that. We went for the more traditional burger and fish&chips.; There was no problem with either dish and can recommend, though the chips were ok to eat don’t be put off by the very dark colour.

Staying at the hotel we just had diner here for practical reasons and because the place looked nice.

We had originally booked to eat Christmas Day and it had taken a couple of calls to book it because I was asked to call back at a set time to speak to the duty manager. Then later, I had to cancel and again, had to call back several times (I guess they don't have the ability to call me?) Eventually it was agreed I could have my deposit as a credit note so we went in on boxing day.

We arranged our works Christmas meal. The staff were fantastic with us in the lead up to the date as we changed the numbers and food options a number of times, this was never any bother with the staff.

Staying in the attached hotel, came here for dinner. Positives: the food quite high quality. Good flavours combined on simple dishes. Negatives: very patchy and slow service. Firstly waitress very keen to take order. Asked for couple min and she disappeared. Another guy appeared 10 min later to take order. Advised by waitress to order 3-4 dishes each from tapas style menu. Bit strange as prices vary massively. We used instinct and ordered 4 dishes between 2 of us. Right decision. The fish and chips is a full meal. Use the prices as a guide. Food took reasonable time to come. Food was very good. Would have had dessert/coffee but again waiting staff disappeared. Eventually went to bar to settle bill. Wasn’t even busy. Was a 3 star bordering 2 with service. Shame has good potential.

Went to this place because it was in the lobby of the hotel we were staying at and was very pleased with the entire experience. We had drinks at the bar which was well appointed and quiet . We also had lunch at the restaurant where everyone was very satisfied with their meal and drinks. This is a smaller venue so don't expect the service to be fabulous but all in all it was very good and the prices were more than fair.

We arrived at 8.10 pm and ordered pretty quickly. 45 minutes later we were still waiting for our burgers even if there was only 3 other tables of 2. The waiter did not look annoyed to keep us waiting that long. The burger meat was overcooked so not an amazing meal. The staff is not friendly at all but the best part was the morning after. I received an email from Opentable, the booking system the restaurant uses, telling me that I did not show up the evening before and that was not kind. So at breakfast time I noticed the manager who was there the evening before and was the guy we told about our booking. So I asked him if he remembered me and if he can inform Opentable he made a mistake the day before and that we came to dinner. His answer: Not my problem, deal with Opentable. What a shame....

My friend and I came here for tea: unfortunately, she wanted a dish advertised outside, but it was not on the menu.

In York for friends birthday. Went here on the Saturday night and cannot recommend enough!

The food was fabulous, however the service was a little hit and miss!

Went hear recently after deciding on an impromptu meal out.

Staying away for work is not always convenient as when you finish work for the day, you are alone and often just want something healthy so you can make the most of eating what you fancy at the weekends with your family. So ordering something healthy in restaurants can be difficult and often you get make to feel like you are being awkward which is never the intention.

Fomos nesse restaurante sem indicação alguma, apenas porque estávamos hospedados no hotel Indigo, onde fica o estabelecimento, e não queríamos sair para jantar.

Had breakfast here for two days. Excellent buffet choices and a hot menu too. Good service and Yorkshire Tea!

Went here for dinner as we were staying at the hotel indigo. Service was brilliant for dinner and the food was really good too and good sized portions.

We stopped in here for some desert and coffee. The ice cream had ice crystals on it and tasted like it was quite old and the coffee was distinctly average. I can't comment on the food as we didn't have any but that was our perceptions.

We enjoyed a Sunday lunch in the restaurant - we didn't stay in the hotel as we live in York. The restaurant was very quiet, which was surprising given our enjoyable meal/experience here. The friendly but professional service provided by the two waiters was absolutely excellent and couldn't be faulted. The food was amazing too. Beautifully presented with a range of colourful options and a great deal of thought and effort had obviously gone into its preparation. The red cabbage was particularly tasty. The retro restaurant, which is beautifully fitted out, sits on Walmgate pavement, so it's a great spot for people watching if that's your thing. Given the density of restaurants on this street this place can really hold its own. The day we visited the sun was streaming in. We will definitely be returning for another meal here. I cannot recommend it enough.

Went for an evening meal on Tuesday and the service was awful. Dave who i think was in charge that evening had more interest in talking to the staff than attending to his guests. There were only around 4 other guests eating there so service should have been easy but it was terrible!! Had to wait around 15 minutes with an empty glass before anyone bothered to come round to see if we needed any more drinks and then another 15 minutes to be offered a dessert menu which we had to ask for in the end!! dont mind waiting for service and not one to complain but when the place is almost empty snd the staff are pussing about then thatscwhen it gets frustrating. The dessert menu nevervturned up either after asking for it so we just paid the bill. Wont visit again, shame really as the food was really good.

This is a nice place to sit down, have some good beer and food for good value. We had the steak and some of us took the burgers, both great value. The starters were good, nice salads, mussels were great and the olives were lovely. Nice modern and friendly staff. Highly recommended for a meal and a great drink!

It was a quite pleasant and tasty experience to have soup and (as I understand now) traditional fish-n-chips as well as to chat with the waiter about the coming innovations.

Cannot fault it, gorgeous steaks, give it a try, you won't be disappointed. Ben was very efficient and helpful. Highly recommended this place.

Little disappointed to be totally honest. The service wasn't great - the waiter had no sense of urgency. Food was ok - pretty tasty - but no wow factor - which I was expecting.

We were guests at the lovely hotel Indigo with absolutely no complaints about the room, which was of a high standard, unfortunately this was not the standard we experienced at the restaurant No 88.

We were staying at the hotel and after a day at the races we just wanted something simple and non-fussy. Having read the TA reviews, my wife and I thought this would be ideal, and no more walking involved.

Came here recently but only writing review now. Lovely gem of place. Calm and lovely atmosphere. Been to many restaurants and with combination of business and loud music have found it hard to have a conversation but here was just right. Pork belly was very nice and tender with great flavourings, and friend also enjoyed the fish pie. Fab service too as servers were friendly and didn't have to wait long on food. Would return!

After being turned away from three restaurants that were fully booked, we found ourselves at No. 88. What a delightful surprise. Open and airy, quiet and discreet, we could hear ourselves talk across the table. One of us had the fish special - and special it was: perfectly cooked, garnished with white asparagus, minted pea puree, garlic chives, a bit of crab salad, and tiny, sweet, white potatoes. The other ordered a beautiful rare rib eye steak, garnished with a large portobello mushroom and grilled tomato. A choice of sauces was offered as accompaniment. Wines by the glass were adequate, and dessert choices tempting. Altogether, a delightful surprise.

Had an excellent meal with my boyfriend! I throughly enjoyed the service we recieved, especially from the barman Jordan who was both extremely knowledgeable about the local area and hilarious. I would definitely suggest this lovely restraunt!

Excellent food.. scrumptious burgers and so specials... had the Barramundi... awesome and delicious...

Well it's the bistro of the Indigo hotel and if you want to have a quick dinner or lunch, it is quiet suitable. My chicken burger was great and also the wagyu burger looked great. Funny and a little bit disappointing was the fact, that the pea risotto didn't consist of rice (well perhaps I misread the menu or my english is simply not good enough) and that the Rubens Sandwich wasn't available for lunch at the restaurant, which was even more surprising and disappointing, when we noticed, that it was available on the room menu!

I had dinner here with 4 friends recently.There was one waitress who was doing everything - giving out menus,taking orders,delivering drinks and meals.This meant that everything was very slow as she was busy doing everything .We waited a long time for our meals and unfortunately 2 of them were cold. They were returned to the kitchen to be heated and fresh vegetables were cooked .However the waitress couldn't remember which meal belonged to which guest.

Second time we have stayed at Indigo and we think that the new version of the restaurant is even better for breakfast than it was before. Efficient and friendly staff. Excellent value with a very good choice including some unusual options. Love the huge orange squeezer. Love the waffle iron even if I was not man enough to try it. Really decent coffee - and I am difficult to please in the coffee department. Generous and well cooked breakfast. What's not to like. No doubt we will be back and we will try you out for dinner next time.

Limited menu but the food is well cooked and presented nicely. My husband really enjoyed the pulled lamb pie and I had a very tasty garlic and herb chicken breast.

Stayed at the Indigo Hotel for our wedding anniversary, and had a very enjoyable dinner. I had fillet steak which was cooked perfectly.

Well for most of you reading this the title may seem a bit cryptic, but we think Rhys the Restaurant Manager will understand lol! We have stayed here for 2 nights and eaten here the second night and we laughed from start to finish with the fabulous restaurant staff....however they were extremely professional, knowledgeable and just so warming to be around. The food was exceptional as was breakfast.....drinking at the bar until 11pm exchanging stories of life with Robbie will be a long lasting memory he was a fantastic barman!!! Marcos also at breakfast and dinner telling us of his life and just in general a lovely person who has a great outlook on life. All in all our experience hasn't been a typical hotel stay of just sleeping and checking out but getting to know the staff who make the place a wonderfully environment to be both for customers and its employees....don't want to leave and can't wait to return!! Thank you to all...you are a credit to Hotel Indigo York!!

New place on the ground floor of hotel indigo, clean and quiet place to eat. Stuff are friendly and helpful. Menu is simple but have good choices. I had hamhock for starter, it was pretty good, my risotto was good too but a bit salty for me. We were curious about the wagyu burger, we'd like medium usually, but it was a little bit overcooked. It is not on the cheap side for a place like this, but overall it worth to try

Called in for breakfast. After initially thinking the price was a little high at 12.95, for the full Yorkshire Breakfast, we decided to go in because the place looked busy and inviting on a miserable morning. The Breakfast was actually a bargain. Unlimited drinks, juices, toast, continental breakfast, pretty much everything you can think of, not that you could possibly eat all that because the full Yorkshire was plenty. A good quality selection of bacon, sausage, black pudding, beans, tomato, mushrooms, hash browns and a choice of eggs. The service was also excellent. Welcoming, friendly and efficient. We will call again the next time we are in York!

We booked a weekend away for New Year and booked a meal in advance for New Year's Eve, including sending in our order 2 days before,

The restaurant is clean and well presented; the staff very nice and welcoming. I had dinner and tried the roasted bass with some sides... The dishes were average but there isn't much to choose on the menu...

We stayed over Christmas this year. Had a buffet style Christmas dinner. The Christmas pudding was my favourite!

We ate at the restaurant as we were staying in the hotel. The choice of food on the menu was a fairly standard fare, typically British in style. However, I was pleasantly surprised with the portions size and taste of the food. It was great to have hand-cut chips and good quality, well cooked mains. The sides were equally good. Also I enjoyed the ale selection and draft beer that was available from the bar. Service was ok and I would eat there again. We also ate breakfast in the restaurant which was excellent!

The rabbit tureen was an excellent starter, the sea bass was nice and the cheesecake was good. However the slow cooked lamb was not very tender. Staff nice and efficient

This is an excellent place to eat. Excellent decor, excellent food, excellent service and excellent hospitality and not overly expensive. Would highly recommend

Stayed in the hotel and ate here. For one breakfast we ordered "smoked haddock & poached eggs on toast" only to be told we had to prepare the toast ourselves. It might be me but if an item is listed on a menu and its available then we does the customer have to prepare it. I would expect something better from a hotel of this standard.

We booked the restaurant based on the previous reviews and arriving at the restaurant on time we found it fairly quite. However, after booking starters and mains we had to wait nearly an hour for our mains to arrive. The only reason we could see for this was a larger prebooked party had arrived and our meals were held up to serve the larger party. During this time we were not approached once to ask if we needed anything else and were just on the point of leaving when our mains finally arrived. The food we had was excellent but the delays were disappointing as we had one younger daughter with us who did not have a starter and was very hungry by the time the food arrived.

2 dinners and 2 breakfasts would encourage us to return again. An attractive selection of standard meals and very good service, plus an excellent house red. Enjoy.

Restaurant is part of the Hotel Indigo. Prices are probably slightly higher than average but it's convenient. Menu not huge, which is not a bad thing, but there is reasonable choice. The starter sounded interesting and different but was disappointing. Reheated Yorkshire puddings, chopped chorizo and rather glutinous onion gravy which did not seem to be freshly made. The main course on the other hand was very good indeed. All fresh. Portion of vegetables was excellent and ample for two people. Sirloin steak was perfectly cooked to order. The hand cut chips were just that - seriously large chips, which were delicious. The rating reflects the quality of the main course.

We were looking for somewhere to eat before a concert at the York Barbican and stumbled across No88.

We were a big party and had all decided to meet with the kids in York. Finding somewhere suitable for an early dinner with kids (7 of the little ones all aged 4 and under) and my goodness, we were so so impressed!
