Beautiful Sunday roast, hadn’t booked very lucky to get table so pleased we did. Delightful old pub. Staff we were very friendly. Meal was delicious both had beef of which there was plenty, lots of very fresh veg, creamy mash roasters and cauli cheese to die for. The Yorkshire pud well what can I say. Two meals bottle house red £46 cannot go wrong with that.

¡Qué placer! Tenía el filete casero de albañiles y pastel de patata ... la porción era lo suficientemente grande para compartir y el precio era excelente. Buena calidad y comida muy sabrosa - además con un Guinness era la comida perfecta. Demasiado lleno para desertar 😀

Acabamos de ir al Mason Arms esta noche y hemos comido. Es nuestra segunda noche seguida y creo que volveremos mañana por la noche, pensamos que era tan bueno. Ayer tuvimos el asado dominical y tanto mi esposa como yo no pudimos terminarlo había tanto en el plato. Esta noche los dos tuvimos el Haddock y las fichas de nuevo sin poder terminar, fue fantástico. Uno de los mejores pescados y patatas fritas que he tenido y una gran relación calidad-precio. El personal era muy amable y acogedor.

Fin de semana de Pascua en York, así que sabíamos que el centro de la ciudad estaría ocupado, así que reservamos en el Masons Arms para una cena. El pub está a las afueras del centro de York y era un encantador edificio catalogado de grado 2. La comida era excepcionalmente buena, el menú muy diverso y el personal muy servicial. Es principalmente comida de pub, pero servido bien y a un precio muy razonable. Muy recomendable por nosotros.

We went here for a mother's day lunch, the food was reasonably priced and nice enough. The portions were also adequate for most but wouldn't consider them large. The down side was the seating, I'm guessing they were over subscribed so it was like a Christmas dinner at your Nans house. Random chairs, not particularly suited to the tables you were sat around. Plus we were seated at the toilet doors. Would probably give another go at a less popular time but wouldn't use again for a 'special occasion'

The Mason Arms is a charming, traditional pub with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. From the moment we stepped in, we felt at home among the friendly locals who were gathered to watch the rugby. The pub has a cozy, old-world charm, making it a great place to relax. One thing we appreciated was that it’s a dog-friendly pub, but despite several furry companions being present, they were all well-behaved and didn’t disrupt the experience at all. We initially considered leaving due to a slightly sticky table, but after mentioning it to the staff, they promptly cleaned it without any issue, which spoke to their attentiveness. As we browsed the menu, we noticed dishes being brought out to other tables, and they looked absolutely delicious—this convinced us to stay for lunch. When our food arrived, it didn’t disappoint. The meat was well-cooked, tender, and full of flavour, complemented by a great selection of sides and trimmings. The portion sizes were generous, making for a satisfying meal. If you're looking for a traditional pub with hearty food and a lively yet laid-back vibe, The Mason Arms is definitely worth a visit.

Sunday Lunch at 5pm. Roast Pork ordered veg came on the plate I prefer I separately. Veg was over cooked the parsnips were soggy the gravy was very thin and poured all over the meal. It’s better to serve the gravy separately it also tasted very sweet/sugary. In the past I have had good meals here albeit it was a few years ago. I have used the pub on and off for over 30 years. Very noisy environment the table behind me had a guy swearing most of the time in conversation throughout the duration of my meal which was terrible. F ing and Jeffing most of the time. Not a great experience clearly a local who liked to bellow and curse while drinking in ordinary conversation. Friendly staff and attentive perhaps earlier in the day would be better. Not great today for me today.

This place is amazing. They fit us in last minute on a busy Saturday night. Lots of staff all working very hard behind a busy bar serving meals. Very extensive menu which must surely suit every taste and while we waited a while for food (there was a board on the wall advising people during busy periods there may be a wait), this was understandable because when it arrived it was clearly freshly cooked and piping hot as well as delicious. Well worth waiting for! Will definitely go again!

Comfortable pub room but very small with limited space to move around. A large chair in a corner of what is already limited space made getting round the bed difficult. Suitable for a 1/2 night stay . Not very accessible as a room on an upper floor with a metal staircase which can be slippery when wet. Car Park is situated down a narrow lane between the pub and another building off a busy main road. Has limited spaces and tight however the staff were helpful in directing us to where we could park with other people leaving. Bad parking on the part of others meant a space couldn't be used. The pub was excellent with table service, good food and real ales from Black Sheep brewery. Staff were super friendly and kept us topped up all evening. we found out the pub is very dog friendly with quite a few in on the Friday night. I wasn't keen on that on a busy evening tripping over dog leads. Location is handy for a walk or bus into York town centre, the shambles market etc and if you want cheaper food or drink wetherspoons is across the road (you get what you pay for though). Room facilities were great considering the price point with a mini fridge, tea and coffee, wi-fi and ensuite shower. Quiet enough at night for a good comfortable sleep. Lose the chair though. Some bedding and curtains looked worn and could be replaced.

Great night tonight, staying for a couple of nights on a whim, but I'm really pleased we did the Sunday roast was top-notch and the curry tomorrow sounds amazing. Update - Came back for the curry, mixed meat medley, the blend of spices was excellent, loads of flavour and not just heat. My wife had the veggie burger, it was home made rather than a shop bought pretend meat thing and was also delicious. Can't fault this place at all, a real gem

There was a Sunday specific menu, so no chef special for the Sunday. I went with my family. It was a cosy pub with attentive staff. There were 3 options of ales, Black Sheep, Black Sheet blond and Timothy Taylor Landlord. We had Pate and Calamari for starters which was tasty, particularly the former. For main courses, we had roast beef, roast pork and, pie of the day, beef and potato pie. The Yorkshire puddings were massive, good quality of meats and food gravy. The pie was the best with melt in mouth beef and tasty pastry. The chips were chosen as the side of the pie, they were clearly homemade rather than standard frozen. I would highly recommend this place.

Really disappointed with what looked so promising. We booked for 6pm for 8 people during a visit to York. We ordered as soon as we arrived, however the mains didn't come out until after 8pm. We were ignored by staff, and kept having to ask where the food was. We had 3 kids with us, who all ended up in tears as they were so hungry and bored - waiting 2 hours for food is unacceptable. When the food came, it was terrible. We had 3 steaks which were all ordered medium or rare, but all overcooked (even for well done) extremely dry, and very poor quality cuts of meat. Trying to find a positive the chips were good, and they knocked the price of one steak off after we complained, but overall it was terrible, and would rather have paid full price for some nice food served in decent timeframe.

Went to the Mason's Arms while visiting York with family. We stopped for an evening meal which we all thoroughly enjoyed. Most of us had the steak and potato pie, which was delicious with fresh vegetables and rich gravy. The meat was plentiful and tender with a good helping of fluffy mashed potato on the side. All meals were very flavoursome and had great portion sizes. There was a great range of drinks all reasonably priced with great customer service, located just outside the walls of the city centre. Would definitely recommend and cannot wait to return!

Me and my partner are locals and often pop in for a drink, maybe a bit of calamari to nibble here and there (best calamari I've ever tasted). Last week however we had a little reason to celebrate and opted to treat ourselves to dinner. We had the king prawn curry and sea bass and weren't disappointed...the food was astromically good. The fish was fresh, the sauce was perfect, the sun-dried tomatoes were to die for. As a couple we're really big into seafood dishes and these meals far exceeded our expectations. Had it been socially acceptable to lick my plate I would have done. So so so good. The Masons are catering for my 40th birthday party next year and I'm really excited about the quality food that will be served to my guests. Can't wait...especially for that calamari. Mmmm-mmm!!

Amazingly friendly bar offered food that looked so wholesome we decided to eat here before we went in search of a bar to watch the GP ( O’Neil’s was about a 10 minute walk away ) my Roast Beef dinner was gorgeous, very “homemade” and delicious, Trev had fish and chips and was very happy. We had drinks and enjoyed the atmosphere SO much, we had to visit the bar again after Guenther Steiner, great fun. Our room was warm & comfy and very reasonably priced.

Stayed here for The Cult who played at the Barbican - a reasonable price. A great welcome from the staff who were warm and friendly. Ate dinner here - we both had pie which was very tasty - the crust was very tough which was the only negative. Nice options of drinks available with the Timothy Taylor kept well. We had room number 1 which was nice and far enough away from the road to minimise the noise. The room itself was nice and clean in the room however the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner - the shower head was very mouldy. The bed seemed small in length as we both struggled to stretch out without our feet resting on the edge. Room was nice and warm although could have done with a wider blind to stop the light coming in. Nice to have Car Park that’s free although could easily pass so keep your eyes peeled as you approach the pub. Returned for drinks in the evening prior to the gig and enjoyed the atmosphere - the bar staff were really good in finding us a table to seat 11 of us. We both said when visiting York next time we would stay here. Thank you for making our stay memorable.

The Mason Arms rooms are converted stables and the original pub. This lends itself to smaller rooms and bathroom facilities, but nothing that could not be overcome. Garden bar near rooms did have some noise issues, but it is a pub so should be expected. Cannot fault the staff, location (right next to Fishergate in the York wall) and we had a delightful meal at the pub. Parking is tight, but can be done with a few turns of the steering. Busy place, we tried to extend our stay to no success. 5 Adults booked 3 rooms. Historic venue, worth staying here.

Great service and the cocktails were good quality. We wanted a nice drink to end our evening and the cocktails were fantastic. Staff were friendly and brought our drinks to the table. Nice ambiance for an evening drink.

Great old fashioned local pub, decent beers, good food and a warm welcome. Enjoyed a couple of pints of the special Timothy Taylor Landlord Dark which was an added treat. We ate fish and chips & a giant Yorkshire with 3 Cumberland sausages, roasties, veg and gravy. All freshly cooked and spot on. I wouldn't hesitate to revisit when back in York.

Well kept cask ale but nothing particularly inspiring. Got the sports channels on TV and the service is friendly & efficient.

So lm reviewing the rooms I went for roof top jacuzzi room Fabulous design quirky modern and luxury Hot tub was spacious and outdoor area is lovely Lazy Sunday Sunny afternoon in jacuzzi drinking bubbles it doesn't get much better Playing some chilled Ibiza tunes and relaxing on the swing with gentle breeze and sky view 😌 Rainfall shower is refreshing and ask for the nespresso coffee machine in your room as it makes quality drinks Big dressing gowns and multi media TV Lovely friendly helpful staff Recommended 5 star 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Brilliant pub just outside the city of York. Service really good. Vast array of beers and spirits. Always love popping in for a pint or two.
