The Slip Inn in York

Fabby wee pub, never seen such a selection of beers in such a compact bar

We followed the CAMRA Good Beer guide recommendation to visit here and were not disappointed. The interior is well-decorated and, although open-plan, is split across two areas + a beer garden outside. We tried 4 beers and all were well-kept and tasty - a special shout out to the 5.2% IPA from Half Moon which was terrific !

Excellent beers top quality and selection.

As always, a great local pub in York. I've visited often and it never disappoints. Good beer, good atmosphere, good beer garden.

Lovely bar, good beer in a lovely local,a must visit.👍🍻🍻

Nice friendly atmosphere, good selection of cask ales, great sun trap in afternoon in beer garden, well worth a visit

Good range of ales and lagers, well presented. Proper pub:)

Friendly heritage pub which also allows dogs

Cheap beers loads to choose from

Love the fact that Timothy Taylor Boltmaker is one of their permanent cask ales 👍

Friendly, with a great beer selection.

Super friendly staff, more spacious than it looks on the outside. Very interesting historical info about the neighborhood on the wall in the front room. Glad we overcame a bit of hesitation about heading into a locals bar!

The Slip Inn is a nice traditional independent community local situated in the Clementhorpe area of York. Built in 1840 it is the last remaining building of what was once the Clementhorpe Shipyard, a beautiful stained glass window on the inner door depicts this. It's a fairly open plan pub with spacious front and back room and a couple of little cosy side spaces. It has a plain and functional appearance but the most important aspect is the great range of 8 cask ales, all perfectly served and at a good price. They have a large courtyard to the rear which is often used to host beer festivals and although the toilets are in an outbuilding they were very well kept. If you're after a good old pub with plenty of quality beer, pub games and a friendly local feel then it's well worth venturing out of York's City Centre to visit the Slip.

Such a fun pub tucked into a quiet neighborhood. Watched a Wales vs Poland EURO qualifier in a Welsh broadcast, which was wild, while enjoying a pint of Boltmaker. Warm, friendly place and a great barkeeper.

Another proper back street pub.

Awful service did not feel welcome at all. I do not recommend coming here if you want a nice pub atmosphere.

Lovely local pub just outside the City Walks. Excellent beer selection, nothing too strong but all absolutely fine!

Excellent local pub near the river with good choice of ales, friendly staff and locals.

Always a great place to stop with a great selection of ales and a lovely friendly and warm atmosphere

A friendly oldy real ale pub x loved it x

A delightfully peaceful escape from the insanity of York's Christmas Market on a chilly December afternoon so close to the flooded River Ouse. Good selection of real ales; not so cheap as Sam Smith's, but at least you're allowed to check a phone. £4.20 for a pint of Timothy Taylor's.

Lovely pub about 5 mins from rowntree caravan park, with live sports and good priced beer etc. The beer garden is nice at the back and is dog friendly

One staff member had some complicated anger issues this evening... Lost a lot of custom

Wow, what a lineup of cask ales❗️ A great local to have so close to the city walls.

One of a triumvirate of pubs just outside the walls, away from the madding crowds and tourist prices. Excellent range of beers.

Great local pub close to the caravan/motorhome site. Good choice of beer and friendly staff

Lovely pub with some wonderful real ales!

A good, traditional English pub. Good beers and lager. A nice, friendly atmosphere. Really enjoyed it and the next time we're in York we'll definitely be in there again.

Great little traditional pub, good selection of beers and lagers, good for sport, beer garden and really friendly staff, proper pub 😀

Very good traditional old boozer. The Ossett Silver King was perfect

We visited but didn't eat...... Good place to relax with a drink in the garden amongst the flora and fauna.

On a side street had a lovely little back yard which is the beer garden was very busy

Delightful,airy "proper" pub w good range of beers, ciders and other drinks, quirky sitting areas (incl a rear yard), many charming features and ....... a proper barista. Doesn't serve food (because it is a proper pub not a kaffy) but there are plenty of eating places nearby. Paired w another delightful pXk (pub not kaffy) ..... the Swan 100yds away.

Plenty of choice and a welcome reception

Nice little back street boozer. Friendly staff and reasonable prices. If I am ever in the area again I will pay it another visit.

on Monday bar person very friendly and chatty new her job well

Very cosy local,well kept beer.been there Twice,both good visits

Excellent traditional pub away from the Tourist Area. Good selection of well kept Real Ales.

Good boozer good ale and footy on sky.

Only the second time we've been here but we're spoilt for choice with the real ales. Friendly place with a big beer garden.

Great pub and some nice real ale.

Love this pub. Went twice while at the adjacent campervan site. Brilliant traditional pub in a pleasant residential area. Excellent choice of beers. Traditionally decorated with a garden area at the back. Great choice of beers. Had a laugh with the locals and the barmaid was welcoming and funny

Nice “local” type pub with a good selection of beers.

Fantastic little pub selling real ales, great atmosphere and very very friendly.

Good beer, old fashioned pub. Friendly staff. Dog friendly

Wonderful somewhat off the beaten track pub owned by the same people as the Swan (I hear). They usually have a good selection of cask and keg beers. Nice set up with several seating areas and a nice garden. A real pleasure to visit.

Great pub. Friendly staff and customers. Great beer garden as well.

A proper local, where people look at you when you walk in as a non-local. Full of people drinking beer and playing darts, but not much of an atmosphere. Good beer.

Good old fashioned no frills pub. If you're a beer drinker you'll love it.

Great local pub tucked away just outside of the City Walls. Good varietyof beers.

A fantastic back street community pub off the beaten track, serving a good selection of beers. Great staff and dog friendly. Shows most sporting events, but this isn't a sports bar.

Great pub dog friendly Friendly staff

A free house pub hidden away among terraced streets The Slip Inn is a lovely old school boozer and worth seeking if you like independent pubs which serve local beers and ales.

Great, cosy, friendly and welcoming pub near the campsite on the outskirts of York. Great selection of local beers, dog friendly and very welcoming staff.

Brilliant pub - one of the best in York. Amazing beer selection. Friendly atmosphere. A gem!

We call in whenever we are staying at Rowntree park. It never let's us down. A proper pub selling a great selection of well kept ale's. If you want fancy overpriced poor quality beers, go into the yuppie bars in the city.

We visited on the day after the landlord had sadly passed away, and were quite surprised that the pub was open. It's a lovely pub and the beers were well kept and good range. We like community run pubs and support them all we can rather than the big pub Co's. Hope to return under happier times and wish them well.

What a great pub! Great beer and interesting characters to talk to. Definitely my kind of place...

What a friendly welcoming wee pub! Definitely worth a visit.

Excellent pub with great beer choice. Back street find, well worth looking for.

Cracking little pub with lovely beer garden.

Very wide range of cask and keg beers. Nice garden area as well as plenty of inside space. Helpful friendly staff, and locals.

Incredible selection of beers, great find, sunny beer garden too

Excellent small pub with a great beer garden. Good selection of beers. Great atmosphere

Completely unexpected. Completely brilliant. 👍

Extended pub with some nice original fittings and decent range of ales on tap. Garden bar opens for beer festival 18 & 19th June 2022. Locals are friendly and good atmosphere in bar and garden.

Quaint pub with great real ale selection

Popped in on off chance with pooch. Very friendly staff and locals. Live music and great beer selection. Defo Local if lived in York.

Nice little local pub. Good selection of beers.

Nice staff and good selection of beers & spirits - good afternoon races spot if you're in that area.

People waiting outside for opening time is always a good sign. Smashing pub with some excellent ales. The TT Boltmaker was easily the best pint I had in three days in York, perfect condition and perfect temperature. It was like wine.

Lovely back street pub near the centre of York

Slip Inn is a warm and welcoming pub. Fantastic selection of beers. Dog friendly too. Highly recommended.

Nice locals pub. Good beer choice. Beer garden out back is a sun trap.

Grand pub. Modern, good beers, sectioned off rooms, fantastic beer garden ….. great place to spend time. Ab Fab 😎

The Slip inn on Clementhorpe in York is one of the many pubs and bar's we visited on a six day city break in York.We had just been to the Swan which is a superb pub and just before we went back to the Wetherspoons pub on our hotel we went in here for a few cask ales.This is a superb pub with a brilliant interior with many interesting fixtures and features and a superb outside terrace where there toilets are situated.A great pub that look's like it has recently had a make-over.This is a pub that supports traditional pub games such as dominoes/darts and cribbage and when we where here there where people in here playing dominoes.When we visited here it was rather busy as the African nation semi-finals were on and there was a dominoes game on.When here we had a few glasses of Landlord ale from the Timothy Taylor's brewery served in fine condition and well priced.This is a superb pub and easy to find from Bishopthorpe road shops bus stop its only a short walk.(This is my first review of the Slip inn).Opening Hours.Monday-Wednesday-14.00-22.30.Thursday-14.00-23.00.Friday-Saturday-12.00-00.00.Sunday-12.00-22.30.Nearest Bus Stop. Bishopthorpe road bus stop.

Good selection of ales. Female serving was friendly. Nice interior and cozy feel. Good beer garden. Not the cheapest on prices.

Great dog friendly pub. Friendly atmosphere and helpful staff. Would recommend a visit

Great pub with a historic interior and nice selection of cask ales. A telly means you can watch a bit of sport but without the rowdiness of a sport focused pub

Great traditional pub with well designed outside area. Proper Landlord. Good draught beers, well kept. Nice selection of resident Dingles.

Very expensive compared to far better pubs that we have been to in York. No atmosphere, try the Swan just up the road, cheaper and far better.

Great pub, probably my favourite pub in York and if you know the pubs in York that's really saying something, good range of beers always served at peak condition by knowledgeable staff. Proper pub.

Great boozer, well-kept beers and knowledgeable owner

Traditional pub with good range of beers. No food served. Small nice beer garden. One of the best pubs in York.

What a lovely little find- local pub run by locals. Some evenings very quiet others full of local people and the local ‘ghosts’. Serves great York Gin and lovely atmosphere.

We love the ambiance of the Slip Inn. . lovely garden . Jusy a stroll from our caravan park . Really great staff . Glad its open again . ..

Great old style boozer, friendly, helpful staff, with great social distancing measures in place. Will definitely go back.

A great local pub that serves real ale at its very best. Lovely staff, very safe with social distancing inforce. A must if you like proper pubs.

Great little pub fantastic staff and amazing selection of beers

What a great pub. Fantastic array of beers. And you can get York Gin too! Lovely atmosphere and plenty of seating. Altogether a terrific place to drink and chat.

Similar but not the same as the Swan

Fabulous great pub sadly no food but great for a drink short walk from rowntree park motorhome site

This is without doubt one of the gems of York. We were staying at the caravan and motorhome site and visited numerous pubs in York. The Slip was the best, closely followed by the Swan, both the nearest pubs to the site.

Great pub. First visit, lovely pint of Ruby Mild

Original "proper" old pub, no gimmicks, no bull, great atmosphere and staff and as expected well kept fresh beer.

Proper pub. Welcoming, great beers, lovely outside space. Excellent.

Sin lugar a dudas, uno de mis pubs favoritos para visitar en cualquier vacación que llevo a York es The Slip Inn Pub, un auténtico boozer callejero que rezuma el encanto del viejo mundo, es un pub que siempre tiene una gran selección de cervezas y sidras de verdad. atendido por personal que sabe cómo conservar una buena cerveza o sidra y conoce muy bien sus bebidas.Personalmente, me encanta el aspecto de este pub de varias habitaciones, cada habitación tiene su propio carácter distintivo, esmaltes publicitarios vintage y carteles que adornan las paredes, todo tipo de bric a brac se encuentran en todo este pub, gran decoración y mobiliario, incluido un aspecto fresco sirve un bar y hay muchas opciones de asientos repartidos por todo este pub tanto dentro como fuera en su jardín de cerveza, un crítico anterior parecía tener problemas con los fumadores que usaban el jardín de cerveza para disfrutar del humo, esta afirmación es egoísta, se supone que son fumadores para ir, no puedo fumar adentro, no soy fumador, pero todos tienen derecho a fumar al aire libre, el revisor afirma que la prohibición de fumar ha funcionado tan bien, si es así, ¿por qué hay tantos pubs que todavía se cierran, los pubs están obligados a cumplir con las reglas? se propuso apaciguar a los bebedores una vez al año que se encuentran en el terreno moral de no fumar y se oponen a los fumadores que disfrutan de un cigarrillo mientras disfrutan de una cerveza, despotrican, volvamos al pub y a mi verdadero ale.Mi hermano gemelo Stephen y yo estuvimos aquí un viernes por la noche, el pub estaba ocupado con un gran ambiente, recibido calurosamente por un miembro del personal muy agradable que nos sirvió una pale ale cada uno, estos se sirvieron en excelentes condiciones, afortunadamente logramos una mesa donde nos recostamos, nos relajamos y disfrutamos del gran pub en el que estábamos.Cuando los pubs están ocupados de esta manera, es una alegría saborear una cerveza de calidad real y empaparse del ambiente, mi pale ale era excepcional, una pale ale clásica rica y crujiente con un poco de lúpulo, realmente sabrosa, muy fácil de beber. .Los dos realmente disfrutamos de nuestras cervezas reales aquí antes de seguir adelante y, como en cualquier otra visita aquí, lo pasamos muy bien.El Slip Inn Pub es fácil de localizar a lo largo de Clementhorpe.Los horarios de apertura son;De lunes a miércoles, de 4 pm a 11. 30 pm.Jueves, 4 pm hasta la 1 am.Viernes y sábado, de 3 p.m. a 1 a.m.Domingo de 3 p.m. a 11 p.m.Un maravilloso pub gratuito, definitivamente vale la pena echarle un vistazo si estás en la zona.

Nos alojamos en el sitio cercano del Caravan Club. El Slip Inn es un buen lugar para llamar en el camino de regreso al sitio desde la ciudad. Precios razonables y una buena pinta. Parece que se están realizando algunas reformas en este momento y los lugareños parecen muy acogedores con los extraños que se preguntan. El personal fue muy agradable en nuestras visitas. Un agradable paseo por la orilla del río justo después del pub.

Nice little sun trap in the back.

A great find. Warm welcome, good choice of real ales. Great beer garden.
