YHA York in York

Brilliant find. Wonderful service and food was amazing. I was with my daughter who lives nearby and she will be visiting again

We have been dining at The Gourmet Bar for so long, we never thought to leave a review before. But we really should, especially after today’s gorgeous christmas treat. Myself, OH and our dog eat here mostly on weekends. For those who have never sampled the delights of the fabulous chef here ( Dal…such a lovely person and his food is out of this world! ) then you are missing a treat. The Sunday lunches are superb. Today, we had a partial Christmas menu of the chicken and mushroom Wellington ( wow!), with the trimmings, plus a dessert of the trio of chocolate and the cheese board. The Wellington was simply delicious! The veg was cooked to perfection, the gravy…well, whatever the secret is, we need to know!…..the potatoes were perfect…but the melt in your mouth chocolate mousse, it was heaven 🤩 People really don’t seem to know how amazing the food is at The Gourmet Bar ( which is in the Novotel, Fishergate York) - I’m not certain people even know of the Sunday lunch menu. But it’s absolutely worth a trip. On normal Sundays, the Yorkshire puddings are better than anywhere else in the area, which is why we, as local residents, come back week on week. But the Christmas menu, which is on throughout December, is also fantastic. There is a huge selection of drinks…it’s dog friendly in the bar area, it’s stylish, clean, very laid back, and if you are lucky enough to have Dal there cooking for you, plus the wonderful waiting staff ( Salvi & Karl are always friendly and welcoming), then you can guarantee a lovely meal and perfect atmosphere. 🙌🏽

Oh my goodness! What a place this is…food banging, speed of service amazing and the staff are super attentive and so friendly! Couldn’t be happier!

Came here for a special birthday which was a good choice! The food was delicious in a chilled out atmosphere! Highly recommend and will be back the next time I’m in York

What a great journey we were served by Sam absolutely outstanding young chap. Friendly warm and a professional. We had the wine pairing and I have never had a wine pairing like it. Derek is like the Shakespeare of wine a master sommelier it’s just worth a million dollars to see him in action. Hannah was also a delight such an enthusiastic lady.
