What a place. Definitely will be staying here again. The room was very suitable.The food is next level. Had the beef brisket and it’s literally that good I’d travel 50 miles again just for dinner. If you’re in the area this place is definitely worth a visit..

For us it was one of the best pub's in York. It is so cosy. We love the atmosphere of the old building.Haven't had any food only drinks. Prices were good compared to other pub's.

We usually come here to eat every time we visit York as it is a nice little old fashioned bar with an open fire, good beers and some delicious food that isn't massively overpriced and underwhelming. Never disappoints. Good service and friendly atmosphere.

Red very old coach house/Pub small well kept architectural rooms surround the bar. The pub contains an old Priest hole in the chimney area. Good food and selection of beers. Large beer garden at the side.

We visited York for the day and tried to find somewhere for some dinner that didn't seem exotic (I don't wanna eat fancy food) and somewhere that wasn't gonna cost a fortune. We seen this pub and thought this is it.. we spent about £35 on 2 meals, a side and 2 drinks. I had loaded nachos and my fiancee had loaded chips. They were absolutely amazing. Staff were so nice. Little intimate areas you can sit and an amazing sized beer garden which is a sun trap.

Good old fashioned pub.Came in after a long trek with my 5 year old to find something that was a) open b) did kids food and c) didn't require a second mortgage.Was greeted by a very welcoming bar server and provided the menu. The food unlike most of York isn't full of gimmicks, it's good solid pub food. I ordered the blue cheese burger and my daughter the kids burger . Service was extremely friendly without being intrusive.Both came very quickly despite it being a lunchtime in the school holidays and the portions were fantastic. The food was well cooked and the chips are proper homemade cut from actual potatoes.Really recommend this place if you are like me and hate the pretentiousness of modern eateries.
