Love the Winning Post, been going since we lived opposite, over 30 years ago. The place has changed loads since then, the food is good, the function room is well setup as is the outside area. It’s still a pub though, with a bar area and some decent ales, cheers!!

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.

Had the most delicious meal from the specials board, chicken breast with pepper sauce, bacon mash and seasonal green veg. This is a proper down to earth pub with a cosy atmosphere (not a fancy expensive gastropub) and the food was amongst the best we've ever had. Highly recommended.

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.

Absolutely incredible meal that everyone of our party enjoyed. We had a great table in the restaurant and we could see the food being prepared in the open Kitchen. Glad to see the menu the menu wasn’t massive but what was on it was exceptional. Every main course was amazing , the staff were superb and all in all a fab experience. The communication before the booking was excellent as well. Saying we were in a Friday. Night as well as a bar full of race course visitors the staff did brilliant. We ate in town on Saturday and Sunday night at two different restaurants as they were booked before our visit but they were no where as good as this place. Credit to all the staff …this place is fantastic. Next time we are in York this will be the first place we book

Would have easily scored a 5 as food was delicious. However we did have to wait over 1 hour to get our food - we had been told about 40 minutes.

This is one of our GREAT local establishments. Perfect beer garden. Lovely staff. But I’m really disappointed today. Myself, my husband and my daughter. Two Sunday dinners for £15 per person.Home made goats cheese arancini for £6.50. 2 drinks each about £30. Then (mic drop) a request for skinny fries instead of big fatties. Request was met with a NO because the chips have been portioned and ONLY come with beef brisket. Bear in mind this Sunday the pub was absolutely dead (I’ll post some photos) and highly unlikely that anyone would order the beef brisket when it’s Sunday, 26 degrees and most folks will order Sunday lunch or something light (like arancini!!!). You’d think they’d be able to say ‘aw go on then. Some skinny fries aren’t too much trouble. PLUS you’re locals, PLUS you’re spending about £60 in total on pints and food’. Did they take this sympathetic approach? Nope. We ordered anyway but FFS Winning Post. This is really absolutely shoddy. Big fat disappointing review for one of our favourite (up until now) local pubs. How hard can it be to give us some skinny fries? Anyway, meal arrived, decent portions but the beef was so pale it looked like turkey. I’m not even sure it was beef (check the photos). It was very tasty but looked anaemic. Arancini was 10/10 according to daughter but experience as a whole was incredibly disappointing.

We went on a Tuesday lunch time, we chose here as it is dog friendly and has decent reviews on here. It was not busy, just a handful of people in. Staff were friendly. I had the Massaman curry with prawns and my husband had the roast chicken. Both meals were delicious. Our dog was given a little pet, a treat and a bowl of fresh water (which was good as he is fussy not drinking out of communal dog bowls) . I would definitely return!

It's called The Winning Post and yet on York Race Day no coverage of any racing on any of the TV's....seemingly they are only used for BINGO & Quizzes. Hardly anybody in and the very rude female member of staff asked us to keep our noise down whilst watching a Race on a Mobile Phone. We certainly won't be going again👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽 Following the reply from the 'hosts'. Firstly, we did go to York Races and were infact watching a Race from another Race Course on a Mobile. Secondly, four men rooting for a horse on a mobile phone is hardly 'raucous' Finally, you didn't ask us to leave, we were leaving your virtually empty Pub ourselves due to our disappointment at the facilities available.
