The Micklegate Social in York

Only drop in here for a drink now and then. Haa goos selection of ales, although only usually one on hand pump. Good for cocktails. Nice staff who know what they are doing.

Great cafe. Great service. Sells the best coffee I've ever tasted.

Nice little place, went to an event downstairs. Unfortunately the event space is only accessible by stairs.

Great place, a nice unusual bar

Didn't have food great beer great service been in a few times always good 👍

Dog friendly, good sauce on tap… quality after work bar. Nice view of the wall and people passing by.

Called in for a quick drink on Saturday afternoon. The place is in a great location and has a good vibe.

Pleasant bar, good atmosphere and drinks selection.

Went in late afternoon, so was quiet. Good choice of ales and friendly staff.

Called in for a drink while walking past. Good cocktails and they have a few craft beers but disappointed they didn't have any sours. Seemed like a popular venue for York's younger drinkers, would recommend even as an oldie.

Fab toasties, would definitely recommend.

Often visit if there are people heading off to the station or we have wondered this side of town. Though not the cheapest does have good drinks and friendly staff.

Really enjoyed it here, lovely relaxed bar.

We only stopped by for a nightcap but were impressed with the quality of the cocktails. We paid £17 for one Old Fashioned and one Dark and Stormy, both were presented beautifully and went down a treat. The atmosphere inside was laid back and welcoming, we sat by the window on one of the sofas and felt right at home! Seems like the perfect place for a casual catch up with friends and was the perfect way to end our date night.

Lively and is a vibe but expensive cocktails. Really not student friendly prices but if u can splash out its lovely

Great place for a beer to chill with your friends and didn't have any food!

was a while ago when this happened so dont remember the details but it took an hour for you guys to get a brownie out of a counter and to make a coffee hope your doing better!.. hopefully.

Great coffee and even greater hot chocolate Good atmosphere Let down by the terrible state of the toilet I’m a male and shudder to think how a female would feel if they wanted to use the facilities and yes it really was bad

Only went in for cocktails. Not the best cocktails but was happy with the atmosphere and service .

Great pub with friendly bar staff and cheapest pub in York with all the live sports 👍

Great atmosphere, even in the rain.. Good place to visit in York.

Nice staff and service. A great english breakfast tea. It seems to be a fairly popular place. It's major disadvantage is it's a very old building and downstairs is very damp and has a single old damp mouldy toliet. l would recommend the upstairs disabled single toliet instead as better, but it put me off the place as I didn't want to use the toliet facilities. The furniture is comfy but not a modern place, if you like old and querky it'll maybe for you. It has a nice view of the city wall.

This is becoming our go to place. Vibe is chill, as are the bar staff. That makes the difference from other bars. Wish there were candles on the tables to increase the cosy vibe even more, and it would be nice if the food was a bit more varied ; particularly vegan options. Then we could linger there even longer on a night out but we really feel welcome here and continue to come. Nice place. You'll feel welcome.

Brilliant little craft beer venue with a fabulous little gig venue

Had coffee and brownie on a very wet Sunday, it was a lovely calm place and was dog friendly. The latte was particularly good, not sure which coffee they use but it tasted good.

Good beer and excellent staff, love this bar, top marks guys, Proper Mint 👍

Was very nice had a extra bit on tonfit us all in nice selection of spirits

Good place, although near 12 quid for 2 local beers brewed in Leeds is steep.

I really don’t like being negative…., but this is the worst place I’ve been in for some time. Popped in for coffees this morning. Not v busy - but had to wait 15 mins for two coffees to be made. The coffee was ok tbh, but the staff were ‘barely alive’. Whilst I’m at it - the place could do with a bit of a clean too. I wouldn’t have eaten anything - even if it was free. Sorry guys. Great location. But need to work harder on the service front.

I do like it, and it's good....but sorry, for me Fossgate Social has it.....but I have to confess it's only 200m from my apartment.....and I can wave to my partner in our lounge to come down....Micklegate Social is still a cracker though 👍👍👍

Came to Micklegate and was incredibly impressed by everyone in particular this gentleman named Luke who has to be top 50 cocktail bartenders in the UK for me! Sean made the next round of cocktails and it seems high standards is a discipline at Micklegate Social

Oh Dear , twenty five minutes to wait for two undelivered cappuccinos at 11 AM Sunday when not even busy , “glitch with machine” I’m told , what about looking with your eyes ? Not a patch on Fossgate , avoid folks

great place - lovely staff, great cocktails, excellent atmosphere.

Cool bar, food selection of beers and other drinks.

First time I have visited this place. Nice pint of Verdant Light Bulb. 2nd visit still giving it 5 stars . Excellent window seat watching the world go by. Cannot remember what my pint was , probably some hazy IPA

Nice bar with a good selection of interesting beer. Only stayed for a pint with some friends. One had coeliac and found a gluten free beer (a good one, not just a bottle of peroni like in most pubs). Others had interesting GnTs they both enjoyed. Payed £23 for the 4 drinks.

Brilliant cocktails! Pricey, but very good and table service

Lovely cafe, friendly staff, the atmosphere was great as well also loved the interior

Quirky and cool. Our favourite bar in Micklegate.

This venue in York has a great atmosphere, with a variety of seating areas, and happy, friendly staff. It's mainly a bar, but does serve interesting toasties. It's sweet that they also have water available for self-service, plus cute containers with both white and brown sugar cubes!

Great little place to get some work done with an amazing selection of beers

Very chilled vibe, good to take a break from walking York wall

Great live dj set, good selection of small batch brewery beers

A lovely quirky location with a view of the city walls. Comfy sofas, very good coffee and also tasty cocktails. A great place to relax.

Great place to have a break after all that shopping.👍

Really good beers, nice atmosphere but a little chilly

Been here a few times. I like the vibe and the comfortable sofas. On my last visit there wasn't much to choose from on the sweet treats front but we've enjoyed the cakes there in the past if I recall.

A cool bar. Great music and vibes. The staff are very friendly and nice, too. It's a good place to go for a social evening with your mates or partner (or family if you all drink together hahaha) I don't remember if they serve food but I think they do...their drinks are pretty nice, too!

This place is cozy and has a lovely set of seating arrangements that are both comfortable and stylish. The atmosphere great and it feels a bit more like your in a bigger city than most other places in York. It’s a cool place. Hard to get healthy food but what they have is tasty 😋

Decent beer. Nice decor. Leather couches.

Nice and cosy. Liked the mulled cider.

Just a great place to have a drink..

It's a pity that by the time we went they had only coffee and no food

What a great find. Super chilled atmosphere, great selection of beers and music!

Very friendly staff, inclusive atmosphere and chilled place where you can enjoy a nice beer with anyone.

Finn the bar tender was great, very knowledgeable on his cocktails! Great vibe in this place

Staff were not particularly welcoming tho atmosphere in general was welcoming. No snacks available and they did not want to cook anything on the menu fresh. Odd and disappointing.

Very nice atmosphere but the toilet is very very dirty!!! Nobody seems to care.

Nice place to enjoy a pint or cocktail or a coffee or tea

I think it's under new management?

Popped in for a quick refreshment while walking the city walls. Friendly staff and a laid back vibe. I would visit again.

Nice enough coffee shop / bar with a Bohemian look and feel. It's a little on the expensive side (£6 for a pint of Tiny Rebel Club Tropica is about £1 more than I would normally pay) and the service is laid back (slow) but very friendly.

Nice bar, good choice of beers including AF

Nice place to relax and enjoy local beer!

Stopped here for a drink after walking the city walls. Beautiful place and really nice atmosphere with friendly staff too. Plenty of tables, chairs and sofas

Really good atmosphere, nice drinks.

Great atmosphere. Just stopped by for coffee, but would go vack for the bar too.

I like this place more than 3 stars, good beer and nice service when not too busy. But they took away some seating in the back room and put in the ugliest furniture ever. Also I enquired about an art exhibition there, the guy behind the bar promised to pass on my details but they never bothered to reply. Oh and the street level toilets are an utter disgrace!

Good tea with soya milk and a great vegan sandwich

By far our favourite place in York!! Great staff, chilled, friendly atmosphere aswell as THE best espresso martini!! A must if you're visiting.

Really good bar, great atmosphere and really good beers, something for everyone. Staff are really friendly too

Youthful in its approach but not necessarily in its clientèle. Friendly staff, decent selection of local beer. Worth a visit.

First time in last night....what a great place. We'll definitely be back

Very cool indeed great beers and cocktails and my Daughters local, love it.

Really nice selection of drinks.

Great bar, recommend the toasties too 👌

Amazing bar, with great real ales and gorgeous cocktails. It was the perfect place to stop and rest after exploring the city.

A great selection of craft beer and a chilled vibe. We enjoyed our time here

Great place - again anyones welcome whatever ever your wearing or even if your alone

Nice relaxed place for coffee, cocktails and donuts. Friendly staff and cosy too. Winning ingredients 👍

Great cocktails impressive for visitors

Lovely break to the day , just in the middle of the castle city walk.. tasty food, freshly made drinks are fantastic I am not kidding, go downstairs toilet for a great experience, the atmosphere truly takes you back in time!

Casual drinking and eating cafe /bar. Just stopped off for a wine...not the best but a good atmosphere.

Ben makes the best old fashioned in York, friendly staff, good beer. Start your Micklegate run here.

Good cake coffee and attentive staff. 1st time won't be the last.

Lots of places to sit comfortably. Friendly staff. I visited late evening and it was busy but still managed to get a seat. Will visit during the day as the large glass windows will be perfect for watching the world go by while I drink a delicious cocktail.

Cool place. Would definitely return

A relaxed atmosphere and good selection of teas and coffees. Friendly staff and comfy sofas to lounge on. Nice place. Would recommend.

Nice little cafe/bar. Lovely drinks and friendly staff. Was a little haven away from Saturday afternoon madness on Micklegate.

Very rude bar man let us stand for 10 mins at the bar. We asked if we could be served there. He said no service is at the bar, I said is this not the bar he replied, “well I wouldn’t be making cocktails if it was the bar”. How rude I was on a nostalgia trip as I worked at saks next door and the micklegate social was motorist Mecca, owned and run by lovely guys who looked after us and I lived in one of their flats. To be treated so rudely by someone in my home town was highly disappointing. This isn’t the Yorkshire way!

Quirky coffee and craft ale place on Micklegate. Nice atmosphere

Brilliant place warm and friendly

Fabulous place, staff friendly. Great vibe Beers lovely

Quaint and quirky. Coffee is good. Service is sloooow.

Nice bar with a good selection of beers although no bitter, bit too pricey though

Good to watch football plenty of screens

Delicious Merlot and a lovely lovely atmosphere

Social hub upstairs, proper independent basement downstairs... Bril!!

Shame the Porter ran out. Loved your choice of sound track.

Great bar - cocktails, coffee, beer, wine, music. Live venue space. Great vibe
