Very popular in the local community. Food is five star. Good service. Dog friendly. You could see lots local residents come over at weekend. Will go back again.
Overnight stay in York with the family. After checking for places to eat, we decided on the Winning Post for dinner as it wasn't too far from the hotel.
So glad that we did! All of the food we had tonight was fantastic! And a nice pint to boot!

Absolutely fantastic random find on our visit to York.
The food was amazingly home cooked and some of the most delicious food I have had out and about for a long time. I had the chicken Thai green curry pie and chips and my wife had the haddock risotto.
Fabulous selection of IPAs and beers.
Very well priced food and I will be coming back again if I am ever in the area.
The table service and all the staff behind the bar were so helpful and friendly.
Easily a 10 out of 10 experience.
What a place and what and amazing food! We absolutely loved it. Tried chef’s special menu - never had mashed with black pudding- that was phenomenal.
The Fish and Chips! Seriously the best we had our entire trip, and believe me, we sampled from London to Glasgow! 😂 Our other food (Risotto etc) was delicious also but the fish and chips were definitely the highlight by far. And sadly I didn’t get a picture! 😆
Top notch food.
We went for Sunday lunch, and chose from the weekly menu (although the Roasts being served all looked very good).
We shared the Tempura Harrisa Cauliflower for starters which was excellent. We had Cod from the specials menu (bang on), and the Beetroot and Leek Risotto with grilled Goats Cheese for mains, and shared a Banoffee Pie for dessert.
Top quality food, great range of craft ales and spirits, friendly staff, and good value for money.
Would highly recommend as a great place for a meal out.
So glad we found this gem of a place on our last night whilst visiting York for a few days. Amazing food and great presentation too, truly a professional kitchen. Huge portions, great value.
Gravy in the jug and these were my leftover chips which were so good.
Amazing place for having a catch up with friends or family. Good food. Not had Sunday Lunch or Dinner yet.
Staying in York and walked down the river for a bit. Looked for a pub and found this gem. Could not decide on starters as all sounded delicious so we had 4! Sort of did a tapas. It was amazing. Very tasty. We enjoyed thoroughly. Highly recommend.
It’s our local but by golly the food went to another level last night! We had the turkey special which looked inviting on the chalk board but its presentation, matched by the taste, was all totally brilliant. Colour, taste and textures, they were all there. Accompanied by a nice bottle of (French) Malbec it was fantastic. Well done the chefs. I have bored a few people about it today. If you are staying in York the city pubs can be mobbed and impersonal but The Winning Post gives you that good food, a friendly touch, and also some great guest beers. What’s not to like.
