Solid spot for a drink. The real ales are well-kept, which is nice. The staff behind the bar were happy and helpful, just a good vibe all round.

Been here a few times now. The food is always spot on &ndash; the lamb shank last night was cooked perfectly, just fell off the bone. Staff are really friendly, remember your name. A solid local.

Been coming here for years, and the Gang Panaeng is my go-to. It&#39;s always got that same deep, spicy kick I ask for. Never disappoints.

The cheddar and sweetcorn fritters were spot on. Good tapas selection and a decent IPA to go with it.

Great spot for a catch-up! They had a really good selection of drinks, including some proper ales. Perfect for a chilled pint with friends.

Love how dog-friendly it is here! The veggie breakfast was really good, and they even warm the mugs for your tea. Perfect spot for a catch-up with a friend.

It&#39;s BYO, so you can bring your own bottle. They give you glasses and a corkscrew, no extra charge. Makes for a nice, relaxed evening out.

The ebi tempura was the best part. Big, juicy prawns with a light, crispy batter. Beef yaki udon portion was massive too, good flavour.

The flat white and latte are top-tier for York. The owner and his family run the place, which gives it a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Coffee is the clear focus here.

The Sunday roast here is a proper treat. The beef was so tender, and the Yorkshire pudding was spot on. Honestly, it&#39;s become a bit of a weekend ritual for me. A bit of a wait for a table, but that&#39;s to be expected.

The garlic aioli was a real highlight, so fresh and creamy. The hot honey dip was a bit of a letdown though, not much heat to it at all. I do appreciate when the flavours are clear and the ingredients feel high-quality.

The portions here are huge! We shared a main and still had leftovers to take home. Really good value for money, left feeling totally full.

The window display is a real showstopper. So many colourful, tempting choices, it felt like stepping into a proper old-school sweet shop.

The Timothy Taylor and Rudgate beers were spot on. Really enjoyed them on a busy Friday night. Great selection of drinks here.

The vegan chili was really fresh, you could tell it was made with good ingredients. It didn&#39;t feel like an afterthought. The rest of the menu looked good, but I was happy with my choice. Nice, simple spot.

Really enjoyed the cosy, underground vibe here. The brick arches and soft lighting make it a relaxing spot. Service was friendly and attentive, which made for a pleasant, hassle-free evening.

Rooms are clean, warm, and well-stocked. Fine for a short city break. The minibar selection was surprisingly decent, had a nice local craft beer that hit the spot after a long day. Could use a couple more wine options by the glass though.

Tia&rsquo;s cocktail class was a blast. She&rsquo;s funny and really knows her stuff&mdash;made it super fun for everyone.

That quiche though! The pastry was so buttery and flaky, and the filling was just spot-on. We always pop in when we&#39;re in the area. A proper little treat.

The dough here is lovely, not greasy like some takeaway pizza. Really appreciate the quality of the ingredients.

The pea and ham soup hit the spot on a chilly day. Grabbed an apple pie to go, and it was still warm when I got home. Prices seem fair for what you get.

Popped in for a quick bite. The panini was really good, came with a fresh side salad. Loved that they served it on proper plates, not disposable stuff. Just a nice, simple lunch.

Martin and the team are always so welcoming. The food here is consistently good - I&#39;m a big fan of their lamb dish, cooked just right. A cozy spot that feels like a proper treat.

The local ingredients really shine here. The scallops were perfectly seared, and the lamb was cooked just right. Service was smooth, never intrusive. Felt like a proper fine dining experience without being stuffy.

Cosy spot for a casual dinner. I really appreciated the fresh ingredients in the salad - the greens were crisp and the tomatoes tasted like they were just picked. A nice, simple meal.
