Popped into the Slug & Lettuce Swinegate for a brunch we booked and was not disappointed. Our server Katy provided excellent service, the food options were very good & the drinks selection available as part of the brunch was varied. For the price we paid, well worth the money and the atmosphere was spot on with contemporary music playing throughout our visit (e.g. Chris Brown & Beyonce)

We popped in for a light bite and to get out of the rain. The name Slug and Lettuce made us want to try it. We ordered the 3 starters for 19.50. Big enough to share or a meal for someone hungry. We ordered the cod goujons, Sheezy (yes I spelled it right) mushrooms, and antipasti. You find your own table, then when ready to order, go to the bar area. The staff was friendly and followed up to make sure all was right. Decor was fun and unique colors. Classy feel overall.

Nice trendy pub serving good quality food & an excellent selection of cocktails and drinks on the menu.

I visited with my son in law and grandson on a Saturday. Quiet busy with loads of hen parts and party groups. Mainly females . The pub is aimed at lady's from the decor , cocktails and food menus. . Nicely done but bright and in your face with pink . Food was nice but everything was posh or spiced with chilli or some sort of dressing . All the stuff I don't eat . Even the plainish BBQ chicken thing was a salad ... Well a pile of rocket ... So not really a salad . Rocket means peppery so again no good for me. Ok for the girly get together but my grandson found it too screechy with squeeling excited women.

Attended here for a bottomless brunch for a friends 30th birthday. Having never attended a bottomless brunch before, I was sceptical about whether the service would be lax re: drinks: couldn’t have been more wrong.
The food (buttermilk chicken burger) was delicious and juicy, and our server Alicia was amazing. She was so attentive and the drinks were really free flowing. Nothing was too much to ask and she really went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed to make the day perfect. Really fun banter too which added to the whole atmosphere 🙂
Highly recommend for similar functions and would have no hesitation in returning in future.
(Sorry got he lack of photos - we dove right in haha)

Amazing bottomless brunch for a get together with my friends.
Freya and Fin was amazing, so friendly and professional.
Thank you so much for making our day amazing.

The food was really very good for our afternoon meal, and service was quick and friendly.
There always seems to be a problem with paying via the app though, but at least you can organise your order on it then read off that to the bar :)

We came for a bottomless brunch for 11 of us. The food was amazing. Such a great selection and was hot and tasty. Drinks selection was amazing and Freya was always on hand to see if we needed any extra drinks! Great service. Everyone who helped serve our table was so friendly and smiley- especially Freya.

This was a lovely bar to visit, with a stylish design contributed to by the flashy lights and greenery! The bar is well-presented and the Christmas tree made a sweet addition; the staff were friendly, even filling up my water bottle when I had a sore throat. I enjoyed a refreshing strawberry cocktail, relaxing at comfortable seating on a clean table and having good views!
Lucy Kemp
Freya server was great! So attentive asking if we wanted any more drinks even tho we already had some! And food was a 10/10 lovely bottomless brunch to say goodbye to the gals, definitely recommend

Visited yesterday with my other half.. had a sharing platter & the huge pornstar martini with the bottle of prosecco. Staff very helpful..beautiful drink and great food! We will be back! �
Clare Stewart Mason
Cold food which arrived burnt so returned! Incorrect order arrived for kids meal had to wait a further 15 minutes! Despite asking Si salt, pepper etc nothing provided! Had to go search for our own! Service diabolical when I queried where salt and pepper was, served simply rolled his eyes! Not the best experience, would have had fresher food at McDonald’s and a better service!

Little hidden gem. Stopped for breakfast. Eggs benidict and smashed avocado. Food was amazing. Good recommendations. Service spot on. Thank you Hannah. We will be back when visiting York! 😊
Leanne Foot
Came here today walked out after 40/50 minutes of waiting, staff didn't seem interested in serving and was rude and never even brought over our drinks in this time, I wouldn't mind if it was busy but it wasn't even busy. I won't be visiting again.
Sarah Holohan
We went for lunch on a busy Saturday. The food was lovely and the cocktails were great but our waitress was quite rude and very unhelpful. Our party's full order didn't go through their till so one of us was delayed getting their food. The waitress dealt with this by ignoring us pretty much the whole time we were there. My friends food took that long she actually cancelled her order as the rest of us were already finished. We spent plenty of money and expected better service. Probably won't visit again and will try somewhere else next time.
Chris Taylor
Ordered 2 Aperol spritz and they were both spoilt by way to much tonic to the point were you couldn't taste anything but tonic
Aly Borthwick
What a shame � we waited 20 minuets to be served found a table ( which we cleared our self ) went back to the bar and the que was even bigger 30 minuets later we left without getting our second drink and didn’t even get trimmings in our drink not enough staff total let down �
Darren Bilbie
£4:40 for a non alcoholic bottle of Becks Blue, how does that encourage people not to drink and drive. It was cheaper to have a full pint of Guinness at £4:20. Outrageous ���
Stella Walsh
As a hen party of 17 we were greeted by the most rude waitress who ordered us away from her table area.
When we sat down we asked for the tables to be cleared & cleaned...bearing in mind we were gonna spend alot of money in there...more rudeness from a bartender saying he hasn't got the time or staff to do it. I told another barman no toilet tissue...this is a basic hygiene necessity, he almost was shouting at me telling me he hasn't enough staff to do anything about it...I suggest you either close on Saturdays or get your act together & get more staff...ideally some with some basic hygiene standards & manners!
Elaine Pendlebury
I went to the bar on the 13th November. Party of 9. We enjoyed both food and drinks. Waitress (Jess) was friendly and served good cocktails and drinks. The food servers were also friendly, nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff.
Julie Lowson
Went here last night for the burger and chips meal deal really nice and the staff were friendly and good humoured
Sandie Armitage
Went in on Friday evening for the 2-4-1 cocktails. Ordered the cosmopolitans as usually ok. I have never seen or tasted anything so watery in my life. Very poor. Won't be ordering them again. Come on get your act together. You have a lot of bad reviews on here, so maybe about time you get something done.
Mike Waters
Rapidly going down hill since the last visit. Overcooked food and only half the tables available. Waitress blamed a new starter on a mix up around reserved tables, poor girl looked like she wanted to cry. No kids options shown. The one in Harrogate is so much better.
David Buckley
Really thought the meal was below par which is a shame as we've visited here a few times before and enjoyed meals. I know Monday's are 50% off but the meal doesn't have to be 50% less quantity! Chopped lettuce doesn't constitute salad and barely any chicken!
Sue Angela Yeoman
Great place , friendly staff and Lovely cocktails and beer
Cathy West
Was in the Slug and lettuce Monday night, the waitress Sarah was very helpful and the food tasted good, we would return.
Valerie Pearson
Stone cold food. Had to wait ages for meal. Perhaps someone should tell the chef to warm the plates before serving meals to customers. It's not rocket science is it. Wont be eating there again.
Catharine Boddy
Stopped off ,while shopping, for lunch with my daughter. Good value meal and delicious cocktails. We were enjoying spending time together but the wait for food was ridiculous. Both waitresses serving us were polite and friendly , taking time to ask if we were all right and apologising for delays.
June Hampson
Had a great evening. The waitress was lovely and pleasant and the service was really good.
We had a selection of the small plates and the food was excellent. Would definitely visit again.
Jan Jones
We had a lovely afternoon, my daughter and I had cocktails and then food. Service was good, food was good and we didn't wait long. All in all excellent value for money.
Rachael Hewitt
Fabulous. Had a cocktail making session for my friends hen party last night. Foos was awesome too!What an amazing time we had thank you so much �
Rebecca Lawler
Can't fault the bar staff here today ... excellent service from Jonny thanks for a great afternoon
Andie Piercy
Great environment, good food but marred by rediculously long queues for a drink. You will never get pissed in here.
Sarah Witney
Terrible slow service took our hen party of 14 at least 20 minutes to all get served our drinks some people had got their meals before others had been served at the bar. Need more staff or at the very least staff that know how to work on a bar and serve people as they are waiting not just as they see them.
Charley Tooke
Poor service, waitresses were rude. Waited over half an hour for drinks and payment at the end, food was great don’t get me wrong..but you expect good service too!
Janet Davies
Always go to slug when in York but yesterday was a bad idea. Went with my 12 year old daughter & her 2 friends on break from shopping. Had to wait an hour for food. The portions have substantially shrunk, tho prices are still the same. Our table had about 20 men on a Xmas drinking day overlooking us followed by a group of 8 women who's language was colourful to say the least. We couldn't wait to leave and unfortunately it spoilt the day. I think both slug & lettuce in York have obviously profited more from alcohol sales and are gearing more for this. I definitely don't think I'll be going in there for food again which is a shame as the menu choice was once good
Paul Bounce Spring
Sent steak back and refused to pay as it was such poor quality. Won't return to eat. 2 stars is more than generous.
Chloe Coopland
Waited nearly 40 minutes for breakfast, when served it was cold and had clearly been standing in the kitchen.
Even other people sat around us had the same problem and also complained.
Graeme Gilbertson
Slow service, especially for mid afternoon on a Wedbesday. 20 minute wait for a drink with only 1 girl on the bar. Staff kept knocking posts and rope, . Not great.... Doubt I'd go back
Anita Hartley-Tate
Love the atmosphere � Bar staff were impressive - They remembered what we were drinking after our 1st time at the bar � Defo make it a regular stop
Sarah Garlock
The tea and cake were lovely.nice relaxed atmosphere for tired hen ladies xxx
Jill Stewart
