The Postern Gate in York

As usual great value and superb service.

Really nice food, good quality and a nice place to spend time with friends. The server, Brogan, had great customer service and was so polite

Nice place... What you'd expect with good prices...

The pub itself is well situated, it is very large. It's pretty typical of a spoons pub, so you kind of know what you're going to get. The place gets absolutely heaving on weekends, so consider your visiting times. Overall food and service pretty good and generally excellent value.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit for breakfast. The food was beyond our expectation, and one of the highlights of our visit.

Lovely modern pub in central York. Lots of lovely prints on the wall describing local history, attentive and friendly staff. Brianne was knowledgeable and efficient. Food was lovely. Was very busy but staff managing very well!

This is my local Wetherspoons. It gets very busy and the kitchen seems to have regular meltdowns. However things are better after the refurb and staff are helpful and friendly. It just gets rather overloaded with inadequate numbers of staff to cope at busy times.

It is a very busy Wetherspoon's or certain was when I went nice enough but they were out of vegetables for pizzas

Nice outdoor seating by the river. Service good, ladies toilets clean.

Lovely modern Wetherspoon in York. Purpose built with light and airy feel and lots of glass and steel. Usual good food and value prices. Enjoyed it, although it's a bit of a walk from the city centre.

Traditional Breakfast was ok, a bit tasteless, but later in the day I had the Fish and chips, that was very nice

This curly haired man told us we couldn’t be served. We had just walked in!!! We had 2 drinks at home I don’t even know why he was say thing that’s when we got served everywhere else.

does what it says on the tin. Always busy 4 reason

Rude staff, they will take your drinks, whilst you go for a smoke. And then tell you they won't serve you after you complain. Joke of a place and run by little kids.

MACKHAM CHEESE FROM THE MACROW AYVE?

Old man at the back bought me my drinks all night and all I had to do was show him the ladies for nine seconds 10/10, salad were rock solid but can't beat it for £2.39 👍👍

We are sat in The postern gate York And the team here are excellent They all work very well together It's very busy today and sadly a lot of grumpy customers about but they handle it brilliantly Well done you should be proud of yourselves PS we are not grumpy customers 👏

Had breakfast at this Wetherspoons but it wasn't hot enough

A newer Wetherspoon combined with a hotel. Slightly out of the way but still in a good location. The service is worth highlighting here, the tables are cleared and, above all, wiped down more often than in many other Wetherspoons. Prices are also lower than in London.

Went for a meal with my grandson. Unfortunately, the app wasn't working, and as we were in a hurry, we just had a quick drink and left.

Food is nice, got that traditional whetherspoons vibe going for it. Gets extremely busy on a Friday and Saturday night so just be mindful when choosing this place. Service has been quite fast for me, found the steak hard to eat as it was quite chewy, but all the other food I've had has been great.

People cooking and plating up the food wear no gloves fingering the food throwing on the plate touching there nose wiping hands on clothes throwing food at each other really need to learn the basics of food hygiene

Me and my friend visited yesterday, even though the viking festival was on, and the place was busy, we managed to find a table straight away. We ordered our food and drink by the weatherspoons app, and that came within 10 minutes. The food was hot and freshly cooked, the only set back was the garlic bread that I ordered was really greasy and I couldn't eat any of it. When I was biting into the garlic bread, it was like eating dough, it was covered in that much grease. But everything else was fine.

A solid weatherspoons, enjoyed their fish and chips, the fish was excellent.

Typical Wetherspoons. Nice outdoor seating area next to the river. Positioned next to one of the York Wall start points.

Who doesn't love a wetherspoons!

Great place to stay part off the travel lodge it's witherspoons don't expect luxury but on budget price great £3 pint food was good for the price burger chips came with a pint about £12 a especially breakfast less then £8 great location 5mins from barbican recommend 👍

Busy Friday night after the rugby but a brilliant night in here to start our night

A regular haunt on my visits to York. Always busy, food looked good, service ok. Vibrant place

Another Spoons like the Punch bowl. It's newer bigger but equally as good. Coffee really good. Food looked good too.

Very busy but food and service was great.

Had the most lovely experience with a bartender called Ailsa. She was so welcoming and kind, it really made our evening. Will definitely come here again and hopefully be served by her :)

Ordered large mixed grill, which came to me luke warm at best. Went to food station where they took it from me to be replaced. A few mins later my mix grill returned warmer (just) but with out the bloody onion rings which I only noticed after my missus showed me a pic of our original dishes... Wouldn't of bothered with leaving a review if it wasn't for that..

Great service didn't have to wait long for food you arrive everything hot

Very busy pub bur staff friendly and helpful service Very good as usual wetherspoons prices are absolutely brilliant in the centre of York we paid over£16 for 2 drinks and here we paid less than £4 for 2 pints of Bud light talk about ripped off in the centre of York

Had the steak deal didn't enjoy tough and grizzly food wasn't very warm would not order again 😑

Ailsa was so welcoming and lovely to be served by.

I had a great time with friends on a night out here the other day. Staff are approachable who were up for a conversation and welcomed us

Fantastic value generous serving and lovely wine and steak.

Cheap food. Usually luke warm. The toast was interesting this morning!

Everything fabulous but why hard chips!!! 😁

Typical Spoons. App is useless. Great pub nice food

Cctv in private areas is not allowed

Rude staff and manager and not helpful at all food cold and coffee was milky brown liquid dirty coffee area

Stopped off for a quick tea to catch up with an old friend and wasn't impressed at all. The atmosphere seemed off, even by Spoons standards. Service was ok, but nothing special. The cups we were given were dirty (sticky in my case) and the tea/coffee areas were a mess with stuff all over. They looked like they hadn't been cleaned since opening time (this was early evening). The tables were sticky and were mostly unemptied from previous customers. While we were sat we observed a couple who were having no end of trouble with their food order and almost had to resort to shouting to get what they ordered! Not somewhere I'd head for again.

Can get very busy and noisy in the evening on weekends.

it's a good big pub very clean well worth a visit

Nice place, good food and pleasant staff..

You know what your getting at a spoons so no point writing an excellent/horrible review about the food! But the cutlery looked like it had just been used by someone else and wrapped in a napkin

I ordered fish and chips so bad not like other Wetherspoon I can share photo to

Very decent food for very good price. Great place to eat on the budget. Very polite and helpful staff. Highly recommend.

It's a Spoons! A good selection of ales at great prices. Great staff too. Food is fairly standard and cheap so it was very busy. A bit soulless but a reasonable stopping point.

Great place to eat. A little bit off the beaten track, so less busy as a result.

Really busy but staff so helpfull food really good well done guys

Very nice pub good selection of drinks very busy very clean

For a spoons, it's one of the better ones.

Cheap food,cheap beer,quick service

We were staying in the travelodge next door and found it very good for breakfast and dinner it gets busy in the evening but breakfast was really good. We has porridge and fruit with yogurt very good. While having breakfast we saw some really great characters two gentlemen who were talking about the law we thought they could be having breakfast prior to working in the adjacent courts.

Only went for in for coffee & got a cup of hot milky brown drink. Tasted horrible . Out of 3 coffee machines in the pub only 1 was giving out proper measures all the others had flashing lights & warnings on screen . Mentioned about them to a staff member but nothing was done didn't even go over & have a look .1 working coffee machine in a pub that size is unacceptable.

Absolutely horrendous service ordered our food took 3/4 hr to arrive and when arrived it had been taken to another table before arriving at our table upon us question this the member of staff said they didn't realised it had been touched clearly looking at the chicken wings they had teeth marks in the drumstick no offer off refund will not be going again for food ever

I visited the pub with some friends and we are all in our 60s. Unfortunately they did not have Guinness which we found very strange. I asked the manager to explain why. Jamie was clearly under pressure and gave me a frustrated response. I felt deeply insulted and we ended up leaving. I contacted their customer services and their response was if you are not happy then do not return. Very unusual for Wetherspoons as they usually value customers but unfortunately not the case here. It doesn’t help the pub was overwhelmed with students and low numbers of staff

Eas in here today and ordered steak. Was so fatty and hard to cut, said something to the waiter and just took it away, no appology.

Lovely ambiance staff very friendly food reasonably priced We enjoyed our visit

Lively modern weatherspoons but can be very busy. Excellent staff which great prices.

Bar staff seem to serve the first person they see, leaving others waiting. Can get very noisy at peak times.

Good food and service for a late lunch

I have been to this spoons a number of times in the past however when I went on Saturday the 30th of November I had an awful experience with staff. They were very rude to me and my friends we were all of age and had proof of id however they were acting as though we couldn’t be there they checked our id 3 times and when we said you have already checked our id they were very rude towards us. I also ordered an 11inch pizza and the pizza I got was so small and then I said it wasn’t 11 inches and they said it was, could clearly see that it wasn’t. I understand that young people may cause problems in places like that however we had every right to be there and shouldn’t be made to feel like we don’t.

Terrible food, undercooked steak, soggy chips, luke warm, hair found in tikka masala, place was a dump, every condiment bottle was on empty, no checkbacks, had to search half the pub for a member of staff to acknowledge me with a plate of food in my hand.. I blame management for the lack of care n training

Not a great experience at all. Ordered a medium steak & a tikka masala. Arrived in exactly 2 minutes if not less from the point of ordering. Steak was raw n chips soggy. Had to walk around half the pub to find someone to take it back & sort it. My daughtr found a small hair in the tikka masala so didnt eat the rest of hers. No checkbacks or apologies, didnt even finish my 1 pint.. we just got u n left. 1st time in a wetherspoons in years.. never again

Great Whetherspoons near the centre of York. Plenty of indoor and outside seating. Very friendly staff.

Weatherspons pub, Christmas themed foods available. Kids menu. Lots of choice of drinks, teas coffee, alcoholic and non alcoholic. Relaxed atmosphere. Reasonable pricing, you can't beat the price of the breakfast, though quality of bacon may be better elsewhere, the meals is tasty and filling for the price you pay.

High quality English breakfast for a great price. Nice riverside setting and efficient service.

Very busy and chaotic. Fish was very good. Prices exceptionally good value. However, the overall atmosphere is a bit like feeding time at the zoo. Service fast, staff helpfully and very attentive

Fantastic pub great decor and atmosphere, brilliant music, lovely food great staff.

I liked it there, the food was great and there were a lot of people in for breakfast. A popular place. The prices are low, especially for larger. I've marked the service down because there was a massive queue to order, but only one person serving. I would of thought that the management would have noticed or that the one person serving would have asked for backup. The manager could step it up here, please.

Great beer and food Can be busy

Visited on the evening of 20-11-24. This is a very large promises and we were lucky to get the last table. As always with Wetherspoons the food and beers/ales were good. Recommended

Visited when it was the Christmas market so it was absolutely packed. When ordering we were advised of a 40 minute wait for food, it came in 35. The quality of the food was great and despite it being busy was served promptly and came nice and hot

Lively and busy place. Visited for breakfast on several days, also for night cap before returning to b&b

Just called for a drink and a rest

Very busy place. Good service. Usual quality spoons food.

Good food and a nice outdoor sitting area

Had a lovely meal ,great hospitality staff were fantastic 🍺🍷

Who doesn't love a Wetherspoons? Excellent value. Good atmosphere.

Popped in to the Postern Gate the other day and had a lovely night speaking to one of the bar maids, think her name Kelly. She was really sweet and helped me pick out a delicious drink. Will definitely be back soon !!!

Great place, clean, and food piping hot 🥵🥵, and service was spot on couldn't fault it wotsoever !!!

Let's be honest it's just a spoons but for the price you pay for the food it's really not that bad. Staff are usually great

LOGAN WHAT A GUY..Friday night, busy as can be expected, you could have stuck to the table, when the wife asked for a cloth to clean it herself she was informed the person who was ment to wipe tables is not here... ffs. After ordering food and mentioning this LOGAN came over and sorted it Thank you mate

A very typical Wetherspoons with the usual selection of cheap drinks and food. Good real ale selection. Msdge bought me a pint of Yorkshire Heart blond. Even cheaper with a CAMRA 50p off voucher. Short walk from the town centre.

Up to Weatherspoons usual standard. Fast efficient service.

Perfect location, very friendly and helpful staff

Breakfast was just warm and not very nice

Great place to meet friends over 🍺🍺🍺 Top Spoons.

Great place to relax and chat over coffee or a pint

Not the nicest of spoons, but staff were friendly and it was close to the main tourist areas of York. Nearby pubs were changing triple the price and profiting from the tourists while spoons remained affordable.

Good spoons, pretty big and the bathrooms weren't a treck and a half to get to

Decent spoons, you know what you're getting.

Decent wetherspoons but slow service at bar considering it's in a city centre

Not to bad for a quick stop Fish was kinda small for the price
