The Whippet Inn

I booked a table here as I really wanted to try their roast which had good reviews. I was disappointed to learn they stopped serving them at 1630 and my table was booked for 1730. However I quickly found a substitute and it did not disappoint! Ribeye steak with a side of duck fat potatoes and the pea, bacon and baby onion salad 👌🏻 I then followed this up with the banoffee bread and butter pudding. Sensational. Would highly recommend coming here for dinner. I hope to return soon.

Been back, again and again, no better place! For some reason this place is not on any list of recommendations, quietly hidden away of the beaten track. Been working and eating (!) for 3 months now in York, best meal so far lovely glass of Shiraz....then Focaccia... Followed by pan roast stonebass in berbere butter, creamed celeriac, charred cavolo nero, crispy mussels, and picked chili Had to be done finished off with Black Forest Tart..chocolate, cherries, Chantilly cream with Ximinez Sherry

This place was a very pleasant surprise in York. We came for the meat, and stayed for the wine and gorgeous desert. Their wine selection is very good and we ended up drinking one of their recommendations which was a surprisingly smooth Colombinan “14 hands” red. We started with some pardon peppers and pigs’ cheek, followed with a ribeye and t-bone, with the meat cooked to perfection, and in between tried the Sicilian lemon and Aperol spritz sorbets (sweet and tasty). The final surprise was the Banoffee bread & butter pudding with ice cream, which was one of the best puddings I have ever tasted, with smild flavours of peanut, banana and raisins. Highly recommend

Really great find in York. We found this place by looking at the reviews and we're glad we did as its a bit tricky to find as its off the beaten track, down by the river front. Obviously very popular with locals though, looking for a great meal out. You definitely have to book (online is easy). Staff were very welcoming and super dog friendly. Dogs are allowed in the bar area (which is steeped in character). We had the steaks as our main meal and for my desert I had the cheese platter, which even came with its own menu. We really enjoyed our meal here and would definitely return.

I recently had a fantastic Sunday lunch at The Whippet Inn in the beautiful city of York. It was a charming pub that felt very warm and welcoming. It’s easy to find and just off the main shopping area in the main city. They run a 2 or 3 course set Sunday menu, which felt well priced considering the quality of the food I had. I chose the pork terrine to start, which was beautifully flavoured and really moreish. For the main I had the roast chicken, which was served with possibly the biggest Yorkshire pudding I have ever seen! The roast was truly fantastic, and every element was very well cooked and flavoured. The chicken was beautifully moist and was the star of the show. The cauliflower cheese was also amazing. The service was very friendly and efficient, and overall I throughly enjoyed the whole experience. If you’re looking for an amazing Sunday roast in York - make sure you give The Whippet Inn a visit!

Beautiful interior and ambience with attentive and knowledgeable staff. Lots of great wine options. I was recommended Shiraz by the waiter and it did not disappoint - Shiraz has now become my go-to choice when it comes to red wine. Regarding their food menu, I think they have mastered their burger, which I believe should receive no less of recognition than their stakes. Their burger is packed full of flavour and its huge! For a dessert, I highly recommend their sticky toffee pudding - it was the best sticky toffee I have ever had! Thank you to the chefs and the front of house team for a great experience.
