Just around the corner from the Minster, this was a fun stop. Place was nearly full and had a great vibe. Plenty of cask ales served by younger staff who kept the place topped up. Interior is properly rustic yet modern and comfortable. Would absolutely return.
I Stumbled across the Eagle and Child while walking around near York Minister
It's run by The Leeds brewery and they had a couple of their cask beers plus a couple of guest beers available. They also had a range of keg beers too.
The pub also did food but I didn't try the food but what I saw being

Chicken was also extremely good. Also very helpful comms re dietary req
(This review is a bit late - our visit was 2nd March. Also posted review on Trip Advisor).
I cannot rate this venue highly enough. We hired out the top floor for my boyfriend's birthday party. It was reasonably priced, & a great space, with a private bar included.
