This is the worst Yorkshire pudding I’ve ever had. I thought this city would show out. Clearly this isn’t the place. It was dry. And while allegedly “homemade”, it was cooked a different day at a minimum. Dry and bad dough. We haven’t even gotten to the meat yet. Got beef and turkey. Both dry and chewy. We’re talking school cafeteria food here…

Huge Homemade Yorkshire Pudding 😋, variety of fresh vegetables, lovely roast & mashed potatoes, delicious tender roast beef. Jug of gravy on the side. Absolutely delicious 😋. Great value for money.

I'd enjoyed good food and hospitality at this pub on previous day trips to York, and this visit was certainly no different! Conveniently located just inside the city walls, between Bootham Bar and the Minster, it's an atmospheric old place with wooden beams, exposed brick walls, cosy lounges, and an intriguing mystery surrounding the discovery, in 1816, of a dungeon and a passage that was hurriedly bricked up after ghostly footsteps were heard there. It's claimed you can occasionally still hear them! Because of the pub's location on a busy and narrow street, there is no outside seating. I found a nice table in the larger lounge at the back, with its quirky modern decor and a choice of seating options. The bar staff were welcoming and friendly, and although the pub filled up very quickly, service was surprisingly quick. Great choice of cask ales, and an extensive gin list on the table, but I opted for a good Merlot. The large menu included grills, burgers, jacket potatoes, a house salad, and traditional main courses. I chose the special: a giant Yorkshire pudding filled with mashed potato, carrots, broccoli, and three slices of roast beef (you can have sausages as an alternative), with a pot of horseradish sauce and rich gravy. The meal was piping hot, well cooked, and very filling. Didn't have room for any of the tempting desserts on offer! Prices were very reasonable. The ambience was lively and friendly. Overall, an ideal place to stop for lunch when sightseeing in York.

This pub was so cozy and welcoming, and the classic pub food so delicious, that we ate here twice during our recent stay in York. They don't take reservations, but they turn tables quickly, so that wasn't a problem for us. Prices are very reasonable for the quality. Would eat here again!

We had an amazing time. The staff were very accommodating with my son (who is very particular with food) and answered all his questions and made him some toast (which wasn't on the evening menu). We played some board games they had to keep my son entertained and it was an amazing meal, and experience. I would definitely go back in the future. The staff were superb, kind, friendly and very welcoming.

Love this place, slightly disappointed with my Easter Sunday roast, especially the Yorkshire puddings. Yes, they were huge, but they were bland! Veg was too hard and gravy was too thin for my liking. Drinks aren't the cheapest in the city, but it's a lovely place to stop off at either on your way into or out of the city.

The two guys working the bar and the floor were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble, and they were super efficient and friendly. The food was way above average bar food at a reasonable price, the Sirloin was to die for! Can't find fault with the place and we will FOR SURE be back... keep doing what you're doing guys!!

Feeling peckish just before midday we wondered in on spec. There's plenty to choose from on the menu though mostly fairly traditional pub-type fare. Portions are generous without being massive (this is a good thing; they fill you without leaving you stuffed!) and the food is excellent. By 12:30 or thereabouts it was really pretty busy - so either reserve a table or get there early! We were there on 31 December so in high season probably more so. Service is good and staff really friendly. Many thanks for an excellent meal!
