The Market Tap in East Riding of Yorkshire

the food and drinks were lovely and reasonably priced

Very friendly and welcoming staff, good variety of drinks, delicious food and very dog friendly 😀 fun quiz on a Thursday evening too 😊

Great place for a relaxed beer and bao bun.

Just called in for a drink on the first day of our holiday. We didn't try the food. Wheel chair accessible and disabled toilets available. Paid for carpark nearby.

Love BrewYork beers and always try to visit the York brewery when back. Meeting up with family and friends in Pock gave another opportunity to have a couple of great beers! Great selection of beers on tap and packaged in the fridge (for drink in or takeaway). Friendly service and dog friendly too.

Great village bar, fabulous selection of beers and delicious cocktails, amazingly tasty street food! A unexpected find during our bank holiday break

My favourite local fantastic selection of beers, and the food you can get here is great

They don’t take cash (“crypto only mate” kind of attitude in Yorkshire….😂). Lost our custom immediately. The beer is average and the food is mediocre and massively overpriced ….no where near good enough for the London prices they digitally charge you in a northern market town!

Fantastic place for a nice quiet drink, great friendly staff and a good range of beers. And for pocklington, the prices are amazing

Good beer and knowledgeable staff

Not the best place we've visited, waited ages for food and when it came the chips were rock hard if you can find somewhere else I'd recommend you do, also one of the staff was as miserable as sin ☹️☹️☹️

Called in for the quiz…..Lovely atmosphere, great choice of drinks. The food was fabulous!!! Every dish was fresh and really lovely!! Will definitely call again

Friendly, good drinks and welcoming to doggies!

The Market Tap is a brew York bar and cashless. You need a card to buy a drink. It is a modern style bar, and there are no bar games. There is a wide choice of cask conditioned hand-pulled real ales and craft beers. There is also a wide choice of Brew York beers in cans. It is an excellent bar for real ale drinkers. Featured in the Camra Good beer guide. They sell food, although i haven't tried it. The pub is dog friendly.

Great bar, beer and street food

Very nice cozy local, with good selection of beers. There were lots of families in and out when o was there on a Friday afternoon, and lots of people who knew each other, which I took to be a sign of a great community .

Excellent drinks and food. Very pleasant atmosphere and good for group meetings. The tables are always clean and the service was very good too. We were there during the Quiz of the week and it was really fun. I highly recommend it.

We came as a family and were delighted by the food we were served! We had a range of different dishes and all were absolutely amazing! It is great to see lots of vegan options. We even bought some of the seasonings for the salt and pepper chips and chilli oil which are so good! Great to get a decent pint with food as well!

Girls enjoying a nice beer and cocktails for some. Food was very tasty and the atmosphere was good. Thank you to the Staff who went out to the bench for my forgotten bag. Much appreciated 🍺🥢🍹🍛

We’d heard good things about Brew York beer and decided to drop in. Wow! Great little bar with a friendly crowd. 6 or 7 of Brew York’s beers on draft and some great food - Yuzu, SE Asian orientated. I had brilliant Bao buns. Dog friendly, superb value for money. Highly recommended.

I reviewed this pub about a year ago and I have to say it's the best pub in the village. Great selection of craft beers and a very warm welcome. If you're wanting a pint of "fosters" go elsewhere!!!!. I would highly recommend this pub, great atmosphere and you do not feel pressured in having to drink up and leave. There are a lot of craft beer pubs that are pretentious and make you feel that you have to have a degree in craft beer to drink there. market Tap is not one of those pubs (or any brew york pub). Try it and you will not be disappointed Continue to be a great little pub, popped in and had a pint of clever gyle, while they were playing coal chamber. What more could you ask for on a Friday afternoon Also they do good off sales

We just love this place,brew york beer is one of life's treasures,well for me it is ! Food is so good, staff are friendly and it a great place to be

I honestly don't recommend a take out at this place, food is nice yes but you don't get much of what you ordered. We ordered two bao buns which we got. However chicken wings and duck fries we didn't get. We was offered different fries which we went for salt and pepper fries massive price difference in duck fries. (Not refund on price difference) Wings were changed for chicken strips not massive fan of chicken strips but my partner picked the order up fair enough they gave extra. If I new half of what I ordered I wasn't going to get I wouldn't have ordered think it should be clear online what is our of stock before you order. If I had picked the order up I wouldn't haven't taken it but my partner is to nice! Definitely won't be back

Great place, friendly bar with nice environment. Only stopped for a couple of drinks as its Sunday afternoon. Had Fairytail beer in the image, barman happy to let you try samples to help you make a decision. I hear the food is great although didn't try tonight.

Great set up with large areas and multiple seating. Expected some form of entertainment/music on a Saturday. Sadly not many people and no entertainment which meant it had little atmosphere

Good food, nice selection of drinks and very reasonably priced.

Saw the Simon Walker "Review" and thought "what an idiot" Im old school goth/horror punk, and have had problems with people like the reviewer Simon Walker. He like to cause trouble but won't say anything at the time. He like to throw verbal abuse at young alternatives in the street (which is a crime but we will skirt over that) he made a comment on the ale, nowt wrong with it. But as an ex landlord, you will get the odd time that you will have a slight issue, the fact he never said anything to the staff at the time, shows he has alteria motives. Don't be a Simon Walker, a nobody who loves to complain about things that never happened.

Fantastic choice of craft beers that change weekly, with a great choice of food . We go every week

Great pub with a lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and a nice selection of local drinks. Always pop in when out in Pocklington and never disappointed.

Great little place offering an interesting selection of craft ales. Plenty of seating and the food is good too. Ludicrous that they don't accept cash when asked why not they couldn't give me a straight answer. If it wasn't for this it would be superb.

Great selection of beers on tap, plenty of interesting pints. Asian food on offer is very good. Good for veggies/vegans, lots of options.

We are not from the local area and googled bars around, absolutely loved this place! The bartender was lovely to our dog (always a bonus) and the food was superb! We enjoyed playing scrabble and chess whilst enjoying the brews on tap. 5 stars goes to the music as well, about time a place threw in some decent rock bangers! Would come back again if in the area, 100%. Thanks again!

Good atmosphere but maybe the company

I was looking forward to visiting this Brew York outpost especially as it was offering some asian streetfood. Pretty disappointing really. The decor makes the average Costa look funky. We tried a few of the cask ales and mostly enjoyed them. However we were completely shocked by the unsettling and intense music. We Shazamed a few tracks out of curiosity and found the various artists we sampled were described as industrial metal, goth metal or death pop. Not exactly conducive to sitting with a beer/dinner and having a chat. We couldn't wait to get out. Despite this we thought we'd like to try the food one evening so having poked our heads in the next night and determined that the music wasn't quite such industrial-grade noise this session we opted to settle in and try the food. It was pretty good and promptly served up once you order via the app. Shame there were no chicken wings left though. Sadly my favourite ale from the previous session was in poor condition and undrinkable. I tried a couple of keg beers and they were well-made but not overly to my taste. Very busy place though so they're obviously doing it right most of the time.

Didn't have any food, but looked good quality and good value

Great venue for a group Food and beer. Cheap beers from IPAa to flavoured brews. Can be noisy but friendly Outside seating and food ordered by QR code Local brewey always exciting, just find one you like. Pepper chips are amazing

Great place. Couldn't stay away. Food looked fantastic and very popular. Knowledgeable staff and very helpful.

Great food, it would be nice if it came to the table. An amazing selection of beers and friendly service. You really can't go wrong!

Enjoyable visit. Good beer and tasty Katsu curry

Came here after a very long cycle so wasnt in the best of condition to enjoy lots of beers but the Juice Forsyth was great! Good was also lovely, and we really couldnt get enough!

Time travelling taxi is dreamy Katsu chicken is also great

Great choice of drinks to choose from with very knowledgeable staff. Cosy, friendly atmosphere

Great locally brewed beer, friendly ambience and good and interesting bar food too, which is very easy to order via qr code.

Lovely beer, good service. Food is tasty but everything is very pricey!

Friendly bartender with good knowledge of the beers on tap, the food from Yuzu street food was incredible, all ordered through a qr code on the table really simple and easy to follow, this place is dog friendly also. Would highly recommend if your ever in pocklington

Lovely friendly pub. Good selection of craft ales.

Nice looking venue, best pub in the town.

First class beer in a really nice environment. Yuzu Food is excellent as well.

Excellent food, beer and atmosphere

Great place to visit in pocklington! Amazing collection of real ales and the yuzu street food is to die for! Would highly recommend a visit to this place!!

Always a great visit. Great ale and the Korean food is a bonus. Just could do with more tables, but that's no problem we just stand and drink and wait for a table.

Although it did take a really long time to us receive our food, it worth the wait. So tasty ~

Excellent food, hence the three stars. The service is really hit and miss. Often times it’s slow, and with no greeting when you arrive. This is especially a problem if you’ve ordered food to collect. You’re often waiting until a queue of people have been served their drinks before you can even notify the staff that you’re waiting on food. During today’s visit I had to wait until a number of customers tasted a couple of different beers - with zero acknowledgement from the staff, who were stood idle waiting for their decision. Common sense would suggest serving other customers while people decide. It would be good if there was a food collection waiting area so the staff know that you’re waiting for food.

Lovely bar but no choice of lager. No pink gin.

Great little bar and restaurant in the middle of town. There was a good selection of ales, both cask and keg. Friendly barman too.

Great little set up, good beer (quality and range) and fantastic (mostly) Asian food! Staff were really friendly too! Well worth a visit if you're passing.

Tap is a lovely place to have a chilled out drink. Good variety of beers. Staff are awesome and friendly

Been on a couple of occasions in last fortnight and exemplary service and beer condition on both occasions. Was hoping to pop in again this afternoon but alas no designated driver...

The welcome is always friendly and welcoming and the service is great. The food is delicious and my husband loves the beer and there’s a good choice of wine and cocktails. Dom went out of his way to get a T.shirt for us as they didn’t have what we wanted in stock. We love this place, it’s our favourite watering hole in Pocklington.

I want to give this place 5 stars, atmospheres good, beers great but needs improvement on customer service, I go in every few weeks, never welcomed on entry or in queue, member of staff slumped against the bar as the other serves. Basics of hospitality customer service needs improving (in my opinion). If this improves moving forward I'd be happy to give 5 stars 😊

Great selection of beers and other drinks. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere..

Cracking ales, and the Yuzu street food based here is amazing. Best place for food and drink in the area

Great beer, great service and I got my York CAMRA ale trail stamp

Great little place, friendly staff, interesting tasty food, IPA's and lovely atmosphere. Well worth a visit

An excellent place for interesting drinks, friendly atmosphere and pleasant surroundings. Right in the town square it’s a step up from the usual pub offering and is dog friendly. Looking forward to eating there next time, the food looked great .

We order takeout from Yuzu at The Market Tap in Pocklington on a weekly basis. The food is always amazing and the staff helpful and friendly. Hands down the best takeaway locally. Good vegan options. Keep up the great work!

Amazing food and beer great staff Luke is the best. Coming back again soon

This is an awesome place for a meal and a few drinks. Delicious bao, fries & chicken, great selection of beers & cocktails, and amazing service - so friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended!

Do not order takeaway food. We are on our fourth takeaway (which has just been refunded) and we’ve had problems with 3 out of the 4. Late, cold, inedible and they refused to remake as they’d ‘stopped serving’. Can be nice food if you get lucky but always very poor service and will avoid in future as just too unreliable. Hardly any apology/staff don’t seem to care.

Great selection of tasty beers and such amazing food!! Highly recommend!

Great beers and Asian street food. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Still has the modern ambient decor. A little small for space at times but there is another room upstaires A great selection of cask and keg ales all from the Brew York Brewery. 9 keg taps and 9 cask hand pulls. Ciders and cocktails also available. Food also available as Yuzu_asian streetfood. Certainly a trendy place to visit without piped music. Totally enjoyed my recent 2 hr visit there. Previously: Very good selection of craft and cask ales. Set in modern ambient rooms upstairs and down. And completely without irritating piped music. A must for any beer nut! Loved it!

A great selection of beers, friendly staff and a surroundings, what more could one ask for? The food looks amazing so will have to go back to try it.

Fabulous little pub, so cozy and the food is completely amazing. A perfect little date spot for us in the village square x

Great food, great beer and fantastic service.

I've been a fan of Brew York since they opened in York and have spent many a happy day in their tap House, so imagine my surprise when whilst in Pocklington I found The Market Tap, great beer choice, great knowledgeable staff, they do food but most of all they are dog friendly...

Amazing place, staff were so friendly and food from Yuzu was great! I don't drink but my boyfriend recommends the apple cider if you visit

Great choice of beers & delicious food .

Lovely little bar with great beers on tap. Food looked amazing, will be back at a later date to try the food!

Great bar from the team at Brew York, whilst the bar is small the well stocked range of beers, lagers and some cider isn't. Their is something for all tastes and there is a tasty food menu too.

Brilliant beer and food a nice change from the usual stuff you get

Only small. Good atmosphere. Ales spot on

Great pub with good pints and lovely food.

No frills, bench style boozer and Chinese inspired food. Large portions, friendly staff, accomodated my disable mother in law with grace and a ramp for the steps. Good prices, tasty food on a limited menu but would recommend.

Great brewyork outlet in pocklington main street -certainly the best pub in the street by far. Well kept beers, friendly staff.

A lovely find, fantastic food and drink!!

Great service, great choice of beers. Friendly atmosphere and food looks delic!! Def come back again.

Great real beers and lovely wine

Really enjoyed my visit here. Served by a friendly young man with an excellent knowledge of the extensive range of craft beers who gave me advice when accompanied by my crowd of beer loving friends. Had a cherry beer and a couple of different spirits - delicious rum. Nice atmosphere. Will be back. Thank you

A fab bar with a great range of beers to suit all tastes. Particular shout out to Jo the manager, she is so very welcoming and knowledgeable on the beers. But she also has excellent taste in wines too and can happily recommend for you. A great place to be right in the heart of the town.

We were early for our slot it so waited outside as requested.Our drinks order was taken but nothing arrived after five or so minutes then we were invited in. I thought we were just waiting as people before us overstayed.We were sat side by side looking at a staircase.Our drinks arrived, order taken.I asked to move tables when the other table was ready and was told No as other people were coming in. We had all but finished our meal by the time anyone appeared.Id asked if we could move the table slightly so we were facing each other. No because they might have to bring the barrels in if it started raining.I believe it was because of the few mins it would have taken to clean the (sticky) table we sat at. Food - we had duck pancakes and fries between us to start.Wouldn't again. Fries were lovely. Pancakes were very pancake and little duck and minute.Both had katsu chicken curry for meal. Would again, very nice very filling.Man very knowledgeable about food and beer. Great selection of beers too.When asked if we enjoyed our meal i again complained about table and got yet another excuse, this time about Covid. Covid procedures were well established.Food ok but bad experience because of awful table.

Very pleasant afternoon drink in Pocklington

It has been great every time we’ve been in to the market tap. Great friendly service, oh and fab beer too!!

Try the hide next door. Staff lack training and customer service. They seem overwhelmed by ... everything. Speed of service, incredibly slow. Improvement ideas...move faster and be nicer to the people spending hard earned money. This could be very nice but needs a lot of work...or different front of house. Wine was good, beer was good, price was alien. Nearly £13 for 2 drinks.

Had a take away from market tap and the food was delicious, but we were surprised when a sur charge was added to our order onto a what is already an expensive meal . Due to this we will not be having food from them again .

Is only open for if sales on Friday afternoons. Can't wait for it to re-open properly.

The best food and indie beers in town - book to avoid disappointment. It seems Joana and team have had a bit of a tough time on TripAdvisor recently, with sub-par reviews regarding customer service. As a regular who has enjoyed visits with my fiancé and with friends both before and after the pandemic, it’s safe to say J & team are doing a sterling job of serving amazing beers (and gins!) and food in challenging circumstances. They have to protect their licence and uphold social distancing rules. If you’re comfortable with following simple rules like wearing a mask when asked or signing in using the NHS App when you arrive then 5-star beers, food and most importantly service, await at the market tap. 100% recommended :)

Good local beer. Nice and clean too.

What a great shame that such an enjoyable evening of fabulous beers and good food is overshadowed by such poor customer service. From arriving through to leaving, I truly felt that I wasn’t welcome and was an inconvenience rather than a valued customer. The sad thing is it clearly wasn’t anything personal, reading identical reviews and comments shows this to be a recurring attitude! I want to go back, I want to continue working through the beer menu. I just need the shift rota to avoid the unpleasant reception. A real shame
