Ordered breakfast at 11:30 and tried ordering chicken from the all day menu . Chef shouting all day menu starts at 12 . Staff didn't want to argue with him . Fairly long wait as it had become busy . Otherwise decent food and drinks .

Popped in for lunch after arriving in York on the train. Quick, friendly service. My husband had the veggie mushroom chilli - was wonderfully spicy as chilli should be. I had the honeyed halloumi on flatbread. Chef wasn't shy with the halloumi- absolutely gorgeous. Both meals perfect with a pint of IPA.

Just another chain pub where the staff couldn't give a monkeys about the customers. They stuck the prices up on Saturday because it was a raceday. This is an absolute disgrace. Why should regular customers be penalised just because it's a raceday? £11.05 for a pint of Guinness and a pint of Carling. What a complete rip off. They don't put prices up to pay for extra staff. They put prices up, because they want to extract as much money from people as possible. It's not my local pub, but I do pop in now and again. I won't be back.

Horrendous service. Booked a table to watch one of the euro 2024 games, asking for a table where we can see the game. This pub heavily advertised the euro 2024 games and called itself as a sports pub. On the day they were terribly understaffed and the only person serving honestly couldn't even be asked to put on the game. After asking 2 times and after the first 5 minutes of the game have already passed, he put on the game but we had to ask one more time for him to remember to put on the sound 😂 Overall one of the worst places in York

Looks very good and actually is very good until you come to the details like playing pool where you need a 5 quid cash deposit (who carries cash these days) plus 1.50 to play and then out drinks were literally removed from us at 1115 because it was 'his licence' if he didn't. Really took the edge off what was otherwise a nice evening

First time visiting ordered the mix grill after searching most places in York and this is absolutely by far the best yet. The meats were all cooked perfectly even the chicken that I usually find is dry and overcooked. the egg was clean and runny decent chips lovely onion rings and the service is spot on. We will be regulars from now on. The friendly service is an added bonus too.

It was quite busy when we arrived as a party of 6, (2 adults, 4 kids). We initially struggled to find a seat, as several large tables were reserved, and the others occupied. The bar staff were helpful in accommodating us by juggling the reservations, as these appeared to be for the later England match. Good was ordered, and arrived without much delay, however one of them was incorrect, arriving which mash instead of the requested chips, which was eventually replaced. The majority of the food was good, but the steak and ale pie was very over cooked, to the point of being almost burned. The filling was tasty, but the pastry was very dry and tough. A good selection of cask ales on offer, however the chosen Abbot Ale was not at its best and quite disappointing. Possibly just a little long in the tooth, but whilst still being clear, was not 'bright' in any sense.
