Phenomenal real ale station pub with 18+ real ales, with Timothy Taylor's range being permanently on. A wide range of regional beers available in excellent condition. Staff attentive and welcoming adding to a wonderful Edwardian building. Worth calling in for a few hours or a drink before or after your train arrives. Cannot fault this place.

Perfect stop for a tipple at the train station (though rather like airport bars it is slightly on the expensive side). Great selection of cask ales, nice Victorian interior, and convenience by being in the train station, it’s a great spot!

A pub with character on the train station platform. It was the perfect place to meet up at and enjoy a couple of drinks before heading off to lunch. If you're a real ale fan you'll be spoiled for choice. Great service too.

If you are waiting for a train this is the place to wait! With a great selection of delicious pints York Tap top most pubs in York. The staff are lovely and are always ready to recommend beers when you're not sure what to order. Quite affordable and good atmosphere. Although, it is quite a bit out the way and I would only visit if I was getting the train.

York Tap is an absolute gem for beer lovers! Located right by the train station, it’s the perfect spot to enjoy a drink before or after a journey. The bar boasts an incredible selection of craft beers, cask ales, and international brews—always fresh and well-kept. The historic building adds so much charm, with its high ceilings, beautiful tiling, and relaxed vibe. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to recommend something new if you're unsure what to try. Whether you're a local or just passing through, York Tap is a must-visit. Great drinks, great service, and a fantastic atmosphere—what more could you ask for?

Lovely station pub, inside York station and seemingly entirely built from wood, rather like a large 19th C signal box. Lots and lots of well kept cask ale (especially a full range of Timothy Taylor) and a very nice barmaid who's a student at the university.

Popped in here while I was waiting to catch the ghost bus tour. I noticed they had a beer from the titanic brewery that I hadn’t tried before, which was a cherry porter, and this is now my new favourite, having enjoyed the plum porter for many years, this addition was really enjoyable, in a really nice location with a great atmosphere and good service.

One of York's best pubs. Situated on the railway platform, always bustling and busy with commuters. Vast range of handpulled cask beers. So much choice. I had Boltmaker, always a good drop. The bar is set in the centre of the room, which is a splendidly decorative affair. Fabulous stained glass windows and stained glass cupolas in the ceiling. Has outdoor seating on the platform too. Would highly recommend and especially for those who are into their cask beers.

Phenomenal range of real ales, the most I’ve ever seen outside of a beer festival, and constantly changing too - good throughput so no ales are sitting around. Great view of passing trains too, where better to while away an hour prior to your train departure?

In the summer holidays they run a steam train to Scarborough from York and this is the place to go after a longish day with over excited people. The range of beers is exceptional (they are part of Pivni group) and the staff seem to know a fair bit about them. Drinking in halves means that you can sample a few and the surroundings are pretty impressive and have been sensitively updated.

You wouldn't expect a pub of this calibre inside a train station. Yet, York Pub does with style. A vast collection of beers on tap, including many real ales. They also serve scotch eggs, which are an excellent railway snack. The place also looks gorgeous inside, and is well looked after. The service is also excellent. Being able to have a weekend out at York, then walk into a pub where you get real good beer as you wait, and then walk out onto the platform is peak streamlining of civilization. Good job whoever did it, good job whoever is maintaining it.

Every time I go through York Train Station I make a special effort to go in here for a pint. Been a real ale drinker it's like entering heaven. At least 15 real ales on handpump most of them small breweries and priced afordable. The staff behind the counter are all knowledgeable on real ale and very polite in answering in questions you want answers to on any subjects . Wednesday 10th July 2024 This great real ale pub on York Raiway Station always has at least 12 handpumped real ales on at any time over both its circular bars. It has a massive local and visitors for trains following There are at least 60 tables inside and 30 tables on the outdoor drinking area on York station platform. Altogether, at least 200 people can sit and drink this pubs beautiful well kept real ales at one time. This bar has to be one of the United Kingdoms top 5 real ale station bars😁😁😁 . .

Ordered 2 vodka and cokes. Didn’t get asked if I wanted ice… full glass of ice. Didn’t get asked how much coke I wanted. Vodka tasted of rum not vodka. Said it tasted awful and I couldn’t drink it. The young obnoxious guy with curly hair said either drink it or pay for another one. Not his problem as he doesn’t drink vodka. Cheers, won’t be returning

What a gem and greets you immediately upon arrival in York (by train). The selection is vast and it’s all quality. Four Timothy Taylor’s cask handles alone! I haven’t seen that many outside of one of their own pubs. Went for a Knowle Spring. Prices are great. A warm welcome to York if you’re up for a pint or two. Or a great send off from York. Also, considering it’s inside a train station, the exterior and interior are gorgeous. Rustic yet modern yet very much in a train station. If I was local, I’d come here often, a stellar spot!

One of the few benefits of train travel these days is the ability to stop off at the York Tap on my way up north. Amazing selection of beers in a pub that puts many others to shame. Coffe is good too I hear. Sometimes I wish the trains were even more delayed so I can stay longer!

Lovely old part of original York Station, incidentally for a period of time a model railway layout as an a paid for attraction. I think originally built as the ‘tea rooms’ On my visit today fully appreciated the range of beers available, and my glass or two of stout was excellent and not always available in a number of establishments. Having just returned from a holiday in Kenya, sadly has reminded me that uk customer service could be a little more friendly, a maybe with a smile. Also don’t understand why empty bottles have to be thrown into a container with the resulting noise. Prices are a little on the high side, but this is sadly typical in all tourist cities. Having made my observations as a resident of York, yes, will return as this venue has a pleasant atmosphere and many original features from Victorian railway era.

First trip to York in 5 years. Been to this pub several times since it opened Great location at York Railway station and superb range of real ales. A very attractive building with a circular central bar lined with handpumps. Outside covered seating on the platform side. Forty plus years ago it was said York has a pub for every day of the year. Tried my best to do them all. Many now gone but also lots of new places to drink. A great City to visit for many reasons. Jorvic is named after here, the old Viking city name. Not sure where Paulicarus gets his name. Only time for a very drinkable half of Helmsley brewery bitter. A new one to me.

Pasé a tomar unos cócteles en mi cumpleaños que era un sábado. No teníamos una reserva, pero eso no era un problema, ya que tenían mucho espacio. La decoración es preciosa, que es lo que nos atrajo desde el exterior. Tiene lindo ambiente botánico pero también cálido y minimalista. El personal era encantador y muy atento. Pedimos varios cócteles, todos los cuales eran a un precio razonable y tan bueno. El blanco plano es posible el mejor cóctel que he tomado. Super cremoso con la cantidad justa de dulzor y una pizca de café.
