The Marcia in York

Only attended funeral lunches lately but food pub and staff all great.

Family, couple or solo friendly with great customer service. You have choice of indoor or outdoor. Summertime should be exceptionally great for BBQ and play for younger people.

Sexy staff. Football on tv. Beer. What more can you ask for

Lovely big garden to relax in 😍 food smelled gorgeous staff very pleasant 👍well worth a visit 🎵🎶🤘🤠xx

Had no food but drinks good, staff and landlord brilliant, lovely beer garden recommended 😀

The best pub fish and chips ever! Super friendly staff, great service took our orders very quickly. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Lovely sunny back garden with play equipment for the children

An excellent range of cask ales and a very pleasant beer garden in which to enjoy them.

Attended family event , lovely buffet and fast bar service , lovely atmosphere

I've visited this pub a lot over the years, the food was very good, but it's very hit and miss now, the last time we had a meal here, it wasn't great, I complained to the waiter who offered no solution whatsoever. In fairness, there isn't anyone actually in charge on an evening, it's just young college kids running the pub. I emailed the owner of the pub who did phone me up to discuss, but when I told him all the issues with our meals, he offered no opinion or apology, in fact he said, pop back in and he would buy me a pint. That was a few months ago. tonight me and my wife popped back in, not for food, just a glass of wine each, the white wine was virtually room temperature, come on Marsia, you can do better than this,

I went to the races for the Ebor meeting and as my pub of choice was closed I tried The Marcia. Over the three days I tried a chicken fillet sandwich on toasted sour dough bread, fish & chips and the meat pie. All three meals were really good. They were good sized portions and well cooked with nice touches like real chips and skinned haddock. I particularly liked that the gravy came in it's own jug. I really dislike a meal swimming in gravy and much prefer to add my own. Prices were fair. Each of them was accompanied by a pint of Leeds Pale, one of two guest beers. It was a nice drink although at £4 per pint it is getting a tad expensive for me. I am a tight Yorkshireman though! The place itself is clean and well kept offering a three sizeable interior rooms and outside seating to the front and back. The staff were all excellent, friendly, helpful and efficient without being fussy. Would I dine and / or drink at The Marcia again. Of course I would, why the heck not! Edit. Google asked me if anything has changed, well no it hasn't everything remains excellent here. Great stuff!

Really nice food,friendly service

Nice pub food was a buffet and very nice service was good at the bar

Group meal for a staff leaving do. Good food, quick service, reasonable prices.

We booked the Marcia for a wake on the recommendation of our funeral directors. We were very pleased with the service received. The food was really nice and there was plenty of it, the function room is well set out and there is a wide variety of drinks available including local real ales and alcohol free beer. There's also a lovely patio area with large umbrellas over each table and a play area and beer garden as well. It was a really nice relaxed environment

First visit to this pub, friendly and helpful staff. Good selection of beers, larger and wines. Lovely old feel to the place and a good-sized beer garden to the rear on the warmer days.

Fabulous pub, well run with great staff.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Good choice of quality starters and meat mains. Fresh real vegetables and lashing of good gravy. Space between tables. Good wines and beers. Went for supper last night just as good as lunch above.

Went to a funeral tea there.very nice.

I visited the Marcia after a funeral service at the crematorium. The staff were very respectful, the buffet was absolutely delicious and there was a good selection of beers including alcohol free lager. The room was bright, airy and spotlessly clean. I would certainly visit again if I was in the area.

Excellent food drink and service,

Really tasty food, served very quickly with friendly service. Can definitely recommend the hot sandwiches and the fish and chips.

Fabulous local pub with friendly, professional staff. Good drinks prices. They cater to all types of events and have two separate bar areas and beer garden.

The staff at The Marcia looked after us all really well when we visited recently, following a family funeral. A big thank you to the team and a definite recommendation from us.

A great combination better a proper pub and a nice restaurant. Good, well kept ale. Thanks team

Beautiful pub, spacious layout, fab pint of Timmy Taylor, going back for food soon

Good pub, good food, good beer and friendly.

Good place to meet friends, we were a group of 8 and all served meals together. We agreed that they served the best fish and chips...ever !

Lovely afternoon. Staff amazing and the atmosphere was great. Regulars and passing trade really good

Loved it. Kid friendly. Sports TV. Sunday lunch amazing. Cruzcampo on draught. Mega!!

We have been to the Marcia a number of times, including for dinner, and it’s worth the trip. They serve good quality classic English pub food which is well priced. The service is also relatively quick. Also, despite not being a positive subject, in being so close to York Crematorium The Marcia is ideally located for a wake or place to meet up after the ceremony. The staff are so very helpful, the food is of a very good quality and reasonably priced, but also there is a really nice room overlooking the garden where such events are held.

Brilliant food and drink staff are brilliant

Brilliant pub with delicious food and friendly staff

Sad situation we ended up here it was a wake, really understanding and pleasant staff lovely food and coffee

We use The Marcia regularly for club meetings. The drinks are good, the food is good, the staff are lovely & it's clean with a good 'feel' & atmosphere.

Not up to usual standards, steak pie wasn't a steak pie and as for those horrible carrots 😝

Great pub fantastic food staff very good even though it was a visit after a funeral

A good Pub on the outskirts of York, The Fish & Chips are top notch, I travel up from Sheffield, so they need to be good !

Nice pub, friendly staff, nice selection of beers

Very nice food and decor, shame they didnt cover buffet food to stop all the flies landing on it.

Great pub, great food, lovely staff.

Had a good pint🍻!! Barman friendly 😊

Lovely pub on the outskirts of York. Small and tight car park, but on-street parking also available. Three rooms inside and outside seating areas front and back. The beer garden to the rear includes a children's play area as well as a tented seating area which provides shade on very sunny days. The staff are always friendly and cheerful and they serve a good range of drinks, and each one I have tried has been well kept. Myself and my friends have not sampled the food but when we've seen other people eating it has always looked appetising.

We landed, not having booked or warned them, all 19 of us, after a family funeral. We were served quickly and the lady was friendly. Sat outside so as not to crowd out the pub, but it was sunny and a pleasant outdoor area.

Seemed like a lovely pub, couldn't get any food however we they didn't do food on Mondays. Just just not be worth it on Monday. Shame really.

If ever you go to Bishopthorpe, put this on your priority lists to visit, dog friendly, sky TV and food to boot, great staff, nice beer garden and a separate eating room.

A regularl hang out. Just wish they didn't close the conservatory off on a night

There for a wake. Absolutely first class buffet, lovely, tasty food! Staff friendly and approachable. Definitely the one enjoyable part of a very sad day 😢

Excellent service good food .. .came for a wake

Probably good, but no food at all the day we visited.

Excellent evening with visiting friends. Lovely food and attentive staff. Would highly recommend.

Went for a funeral buffet. Nice place, good range of drinks and quick service

Nice enough , never eaten here but nice outdoor area.

Lovely sandwiches and outside sitting area

Good selection of Ales and great food!

A very sad occasion but very well and sympathetically catered for. The food was lovely. Special praise was deserved by the quiche. A tempting selection of beers which sadly I could not partake.

Today we had an excellent family Sunday lunch. Lovely staff, friendly and attentive. Beautiful food and plenty of it! We chose beef, pork and turkey all of which were delicious. Would highly recommend.

Lovely pub with really friendly and helpful staff. Didn't get to try the food but the Sunday roast looked fantastic. Look forward to trying it out on next visit

Friendly staff. Good beer. Great food.

Great Pub and Food. Friendly and Lively atmosphere. Highly Recommend.

Funeral tea very good. Clean nice staff and good food 5🌟

Very handy for our wake. Pleasant staff, decent prices and ample parking.

Great food, generous portions at good price. very popular, so parking is at a premium.

The loos were unpleasant and very off putting, over flowing bins, loo paper strewn about. Judge a pub by its loos I say!

Meals were absolutely amazing? ☆☆☆☆☆

Lovely pub in beautiful village, great location. Drink stop, mid walk on a weekend stay. Arrived for 12, so pub was empty but stylish decor + pleasant staff. Great outdoor area, with kids playthings and plenty of tables / space. Didnt see rooms or eat food but had a good vibe about it and would return if in York again.

Lovely friendly place near the campsite.

It was a good atmosphere with the entertainment that was on & the bar hosts was very helpful 💯

Real nice place, great for family gatherings, large outdoor area.

John Smith's £4 a pint it must be made from holy water Daylight Robery

Clean pub, nice friendly staff, good atmosphere and the food has always been amazing.

Not much choice for gluten free diners but my meal was delicious.

First class great food nice pub

First visit to this hostlery for a funeral buffet. Excellent food provided, quick service. Love this area of York. Would love to visit again for a meal.

Lovely food,beers & wine.Very good service.

The food was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful

Staff are so helpful and friendly.

We live it. Great beer garden for the boy and good beer n staff

Beautiful day came in cold sat in the room that goes on yo the back..was frozen by the time we left, was there for a private gathering the buffet looked fab bit as myself and a friend had Neen at work all day we choose to order and that food was delicious.

We have eaten there twice now. Fish and chips is outstanding with fresh haddock delivered daily from Hartlepool. Other items on the menus very tempting too. We plan to return again soon to try other choices.

Fairly nice village pub with good choice of real ales but it's more expensive than the good city centre pubs. Food was nice but not outstanding. Overall, it's good but too expensive for what it is. Would have been a 4* review but the unfriendly service dropped a star.

Great village pub, excellent beer. Always a wonderful welcome - treat me as a friend!

Lovely evening here, with great food, also dog friendly.

Went in for Sunday lunch and it was brilliant. The beef and lamb was spot on and the kids also cleared their plates. Highly recommend

The sticky toffee pudding here is heaven!
