Stayed here as it was so close to The Barbican and SO glad we did. 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. We will definitely stay longer next time! And there will be a next time.

Although the pub was very busy staff managed to find us a table, then moved us to a more spacious one when one became available. Menu was varied and very reasonably priced, all four of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals! The sharing platter was especially delicious! Good selection of real ales and a very welcoming environment, the staff were so helpful and cheery. Will certainly be returning!!

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.

We’ve been in before and thought it was great, second time and it certainly is. TT Landlord as good as it gets and BS Blonde great quality. Nice atmosphere for a Monday night too. Just out of York but definitely recommended.

Location is great if visiting Grand Opera house or the Barbican, also very close to Clifford Tower. We stayed as a couple for one night, room was small but addiquate for the short stay. We had a lovely meal in the pub below us, would recommend car park v.small only 5 cars at a push. Number Lock gate for security.

Room was on the small side, with no maid service, but functional. That said, I would stay there again anytime I'm in York. Staff were very accommodating, nothing too much trouble, they treat us like friends. Very helpful and gave us ideas for places to see whilst we were there. Food was home made and delicious, the plates were full, you will never go hungry after eating here

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.

Ordered fish and chips There was a large black item stuck to the bottom of the obviously greasy fish The whole dish was totally unappetising The server when asked to explain the black item went to the chef who said it was batter from a previous fish We pointed out it was pure black and certainly was not from a previous fish To be absolutely fair they did not argue the point but did not charge

I attended the masons arms with my boyfriend for a meal and a drink. Due to the races, it was busy. I recommended booking a table if you're planning on having a meal. We didn't book, and we were lucky to get a table. The staff are helpful and friendly. When we were ready we ordered our meals. My boyfriend had steak pie, and I had shepherd's pie. When our meals arrived, both of our meals were big portions and looked very nice. I have to say both of us enjoyed our meals and most definitely will be going to the masons arms again only next time we will book a table.

Definitely a cosy, nice looking place, however the staff are weird to say the least. The very second we walked through the door we were pounced on asking if we were there to eat or drink, before we had even looked at a menu or decided if we wanted to stay. Having got 2 drinks and sat down, the three young lasses behind the bar then took turns turning around and giggling behind their hands. I felt like asking what they were laughing at, but didn't want to make a scene. Quite possibly the rudest pub we have ever visited! Obviously this is a locals pub and if they don't recognize you, they'll make you so painfully uncomfortable you drink up and leave. We downed our 2 ciders as quickly as possible and went to the Phoenix around the corner which was much friendlier. Avoid!

We have been in the UK for five days now and have eaten at many restaurants this is the best dinner we've had, probably the best dinner I've ever had at any restaurant overall. I had the Shepherd's Pie and I can't say enough good things about it, I wanted a straw for the brown gravy. My friend had the chicken supreme and it was delicious too. The fish and chips are good too. The Sticky Pie! If you are looking for a fabulous meal in York, please go here! Plus everyone working was so nice and welcoming!

The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were all seated comfortably, absolutely excellent food and service, second to none.

Stumbled across this lovely old pub on our walk from the Novotel. Fantastic ambience from the welcome to when we left. The food was second to none, prawn curry Goa style & a medley of meat - would recommend both. But the piece de resistance - The Mason Arms offers the only upside down liquore coffee, the cream being at the bottom - BUT the taste was excellent. On the whole well worth a visit, food excellent, staff welcoming and brilliant atmosphere. 👏 👏👏

This place was so great I visited twice! The first time for a pint of bitter from the cask to enjoy in their beer garden along the canal on a beautiful day and then the next day for a late meal when the kitchens were closed at all other pubs nearby. Had a truly delicious steak and ale pie with chips and a fine pint of Landlord. Love the rustic interior, the old fireplace, the unique facade that fits the vibe of the old wall across the street. Would be a regular if I lived in town.

Was going to local chain pub across the road but it was so busy, noticed masons arms across the road so headed for it. It was 8.25 pm and last orders for food were 8.30pm , decided to ask. How glad was I , brilliant food and friendly bar staff, probably only cost us a tenner more. So my advice forget that well known chain pub and cross the road to the masons arms.

Qui abbiamo cercato un pub appena fuori dal centro, ma sempre vicino al muro intorno alla città. Un pub indipendente con ottimo cibo e birra. Abbiamo preso il Lamb shank con mashed potatoes e il curry. Entrambi ottime, ed anche le verdure. Pub del 1800 e di conseguenza come una grande stanza, ma tutti gli interni (pannelli di legno) presi dallo castello e anche un grande fireplace in pietra. Molto ospitale e popolare con i locali.

We went here as it was close to where we were staying but loved it (and actually ate there twice and went once for just drinks over the course of a 3 and a bit stay!). The food was great for the reasonable price and the portion sizes were equally good- they do not skimp on cheese that's for sure!) That said the highlight was the vibe of the place both from customers and staff. The pub is also independently owned by a really lovely couple who are clearly passionate about making it a safe and fun place for all.

First visited here back in 2009 and the food is just as good as we remembered. A small pub, cosy with a warming fire, best to book for a Saturday. The pie was superb, one of the biggest I've had in a pub with some amazing hand cut chips and only £12.95. Meals were reasonably priced for York. Garlic bread with cheese as a starter was also delicious. My wife had a burger which was home cooked and came with a choice of toppings. The waiting staff were excellent and plenty of staff working as well which makes a change. This is a proper local pub but with a warm welcome. Only negative is that for a free house they have a poor selection of keg beers unless you like the usual Carlsberg Marstons choices like Madri and San Miguel. There are three keg options, two from Black Sheep though. The Guinness was a redeeming feature!

Not a complaint just not blown away by the food :( Staff friendly and nice setting. Ordered some roasts and tiny portion of mash. No roast potato. 1 carrot and 1 parsnip. Massive Yorkshire pudding overwhelmed the plate. Food was just underwhelming which was a shame really. Big portions but would rather have a smaller portion with that extra bit of quality. Was really hoping this to blow us away but just didn’t hit the mark unfortunately. Just honest review that can hopefully be built on.

The Mason's Arms is a fine looking 1930's Gothic revival mock Tudor pub which retains many of these characteristics, including a reclaimed Victorian fireplace. It's let down mostly by its bland beer offerings which weren't the best kept casks. It would seem it is more of a food destination pub. They do have good extensive outside seating with a nice view of the Foss Basin Moorings though.

Absolutely brilliant pub. Lovely food and the staff are a credit to the place. If my missus likes the food then you know it’s very good because she is very fussy about what she eats.

It was disappointing that after we'd ordered our Christmas meals we were told turkey wasn't available. Had to have beef which wasn't the same - you'd have thought 5.30pm there'd still be plenty of turkey if that was on the menu. And then no stuffing...

Recently had a meal here before a show, it's was delicious can't fault the food service and staff was very attentive and friendly. Would defo give this another try. My only downfall was the lighting in the pub, my sight isn't very good so struggled to see the menu as did a lot of customers it was very dimly lit. But that's my only issue. Would defo recommend.

Popped in on a city break. Dog friendly which was perfect for two little puppies. Friendly staff and beautiful meal. The beef cheek was just beautiful. Great atmosphere. Would recommend and visit again. 10/10.

Staff were welcoming and polite. Nice clean pub but the food was poor. We had jacket potatoes which were barely warm and very small. Plates were cold which didn’t help. Jackets were obviously cooked in the microwave.

We visited here with a large family gathering and frankly a 3 star review is generous. The service was so slow and they served the children who were all very hungry after the adults had their food. The serving sizes were large but I felt...

An excellent place to stop and eat. The food was fantastic, piping hot and the staff were very attentive. A good menu choice to choose from as well as good music to listen too. From the outside it's non descript but once inside wow.

I’ve been a local for years in acomb and have been to the inn on the green a few times over the years. I am impressed with the food, staff and atmosphere during my recent revisit. After a recommendation I was not disappointed. For the price I was very satisfied and would recommend. I hope the standard stays for the foreseeable future.

Called in for a late lunch. Food was very good, honest, home cooked food. Sat in the bar side as we had our dog with us. Staff were friendly and helpful.
