A quick google search of where we could have some Sunday lunch while we were in the area led us here. We weren't dissapointed.! Beautiful food, which was obviously freshly made. And some really tempting and different things on the menu that you wouldnt see on a bog standard Pub menu. We shall call again next time we near York.

Stopped off here for a pint with the lads on the way to the races on Sunday, nice pint and a good atmosphere in the pub. Outdoor seating available, which we made use of as it was packed and quite warm in the pub. A good place to stop off on the walk from town to the racecourse.

Went for evening meal. Staff were great. Friendly helpful and polite. Dining area can see into the kitchen so you can see your food being prepared. Food was amazing. Pie of the day was packed with chicken and bacon. The fish dish was to die for. I like my food hot and this was hot on arrival. A definite bonus. Puddings were cheesecake and sticky toffee pudding. Portions were great and both tasted fabulous. If I could fault at all it would only be that I like my STP with custard 😂 Don't listen to moaning race goers who have slated the staff. This is a great pub 5*

Staff are very rude and unpleasant would not recommend and will not come back, with a large group of people who all thought the same. Bar shuts at 10pm which is unusual bearing in mind it is named after the races which did not finish until 10pm.

9 of us booked for 2pm lunch prior to York Races on Friday 26th July. We were greeted by Claire and had a drink on the smart patio outside before dining. The Taylor’s Landlord was superbly pulled with a flawless tight creamy head. Brilliant! Into the dining room and menu explained including specials. Every dish was marvellous. Korean Chicken - awesome. Sea Bass - perfect. Scampi - cooked to perfection and clearly done in new oil. Service by Claire and Paige was flawless and professional. We never had to ask for our glasses to be refilled, and table service including plates being brought and cleared was done with skill and aplomb as if we were in a busy Parisian cafe. I’ll be honest. We weren’t expecting anything amazing. The Winning Post is handy for walking to the Races and they had space which is why we booked. In reality this is one of the best casual dining pubs in Yorkshire that I can think of. Well done front and back of house. You are all a credit to the trade!

The vegetables were incredible crispy green cabbage with leeks and sliced broad beans beautiful potatoes that were crispy and served piping hot with beautiful herby gravy.

Very busy gastro pub and the kitchen were amazing at sending out cracking plates of food to hungry punters. I look forward to going again and trying something else. The chickpea burger with spinach pesto was stunning, great cottage pie, and the appetisers were very tummy and beautifully presented. We shared the brie filo parcels with pistachios and the arancini balls with a spicy tomato sauce and fiery Padron peppers!

We went here on Saturday, just 2 of us. Luckily we had booked as it was busy. We were seated very quickly and had drinks within 5 mins. The menu is not huge which is good and there was a good mixture of dishes + a specials board. We decided to share a starter and dessert which turned out to be a good idea. For main I went for beef bourginion and my wife had stuffed chicken, wrapped in bacon. The portions are huge!! The beef was melt in the mouth and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The only thing we noticed was maybe a slight lack of seasoning but honestly that might be just us. Starter and desserts were again really good. The service we received was the best we have had anywhere for a long time. If the managers are reading this please keep doing what you do to keep your excellent staff. So Starter, dessert, 2 mains and a couple of drinks later and the bill was about £55. We will be going again.

When searching for a dog friendly pub to grab some lunch we came across this gem. Even though we arrived just as the kitchen was closing we were welcomed with nothing but amazing service. The dog were given treats and water. And all 9 of us had some of the best food we'd eaten in a very long time. I personally had the chicken burger which was fantastic, but had food envy over every other plate. I can not recommend this pub highly enough and look forward to a return in the future.

Excellent pub, we unwittingly ordered 2 steaks meals and a bottle of white wine without realising it was on a promotion deal...nice surprise when we received the final bill. We loved the cheese board and I loved the Leeds Leodis beer. Staff were excellent and a great friendly atmosphere. Revisited in November 2024 on a Sunday evening and still excellent, friendly pub with amazing food. Just love this pub, wish I had it near my home.
