Stopped off here for a pint while in a long hike. Because like, when am I ever hiking in York and finding N awesome pub to take a break. Any who, stopped in and ordered a pint of the local pale ale. Forgot the name but hot damn that was good! Sat outside and caught up on my farmers tan. Would definitely return. Oh but my mates beer was sour.
Hired the function room for my mums party. Was a fantastic night. Great buffet. Staff couldn’t have done more to help with arrangements. Definitely recommend.
Couldn’t find any convenient dog friendly restaurant to try proper Yorkshire pudding. Found this carvery which is a plus and just out of crowded city centre. Plenty parking and dog friendly, good food and good price. Friendly staff
Great as always. Excellent atmosphere, great food and lovely staff. The general manager (Shaun) was brilliant and very funny. He made us laugh a lot and even sang happy birthday to my husband 🤣 We all went for birthday celebration with our family (6 of us in total) and had a lovely time.
Doesn't take long to wait for food. Carvery food was piping hot and delicious.
We will definitely be coming back.
Thank you
We live locally and popped in for our first time for the Sunday carvery. We were really impressed with the selection and everything was tasty and hot.
For gluten free people, it is worth noting that they provide gravy specifically, which is great. They were also really good at pointing out what was safe for my wife to eat.
It is really surprising how much difference staff can make to a place. They were all polite and friendly, with a particular shout out to Shane, the general manager.
Excellent value carvery. 1 large, 1 standard
Popped in for a carvery, food was lovely staff were friendly especially the new manager Shane 🙂 Will be back soon.
We ordered at takeaway online and used vouchers to pay part which unfortunately seemed to confuse the system and wouldn't let me pay. I drove round at the allocated time and the problem was swiftly and politely sorted out with the manager who kindly offered us a complimentary drink while we waited for our meals. The food was great, plentiful and the atmosphere was very welcoming. Our second time using this pub and it gets a big thumbs up from us.
Beautiful building and usually GK inside. Only GK ales on at my time of visiting but great place nonetheless. First port of call on a day visiting Cask Marque pubs. Certificate on display. Very nice place. Well done!
Just back from a Sunday Carvery was delicious and nice and hot. The most plus points have to go to the staff. We were greeted very warmly having only booked 2 hrs before. The hospitality of the Maitre De were fab. He made us and even recognised my perfume. We both left full and satisfied knocks spots off a Toby
Thanks and keep up your hard work x
Visited today for the first time since Shane has taken over. Good hospitable service, very welcoming, great food. Also has a very lovely function room.
From the moment we came in to the moment we left we felt welcomed and looked after. Shane the manager is a great personality and we all thoroughly enjoyed the food. Carvery was very good. Will be back again
Called in on way home from York. Food and service very good. Young girls on the till and entrance very polite and professional. Ordered the gluten free chicken and bacon salad with a side order of jacket potato and the Hunters chicken with chips from the main menu. Food was very nice. Will definately go back.
I was in there yesterday and was served by a lovely girl called Beth. very quick with our drinks and had an infectious smile. The food was great and nice atmosphere. Will definitely will be coming again.
If you’re in the York area and looking for carvery or pub food then look no further than this amazing pub. 7 of us walked in without a booking on a day where the staff were already stretched our host and server, Shane, was a more than welcoming host with the perfect amount of banter to make us feel at home. All of us taking advantage of the brilliantly diverse menu all with exceptionally reasonable pricing. Myself having a pick and choose chicken item called ‘chick n mix’. Cooked perfectly and with amazing seasoning. We shared perfectly priced cocktail pitchers. the vegan in our party had plenty to choose from. There was a wait on food but it wasn’t noticeable. If you can stop in this place is better than just about everything with a similar price tag and the staff are truly incredible.
Stopped here, on a Sunday, without booking between house viewings. Parking had plenty of room, great spot for the Volvo. Reserved a table and went for a walk to look at the house/Riverside. Came back, served.
The team. The folk here were lovely. The guy who handled our reservation knew the area. The girl behind the bar was lovely and delivered drinks to our table whilst we got our carvery. The young lad on the carvery was jolly and courteous.
The food. All three meats with the extra pigs in blankets. Fresh not too soft not too hard broccoli, carrots, mash was buttery smooth. Toasties were crispy.
All in all. We will be back. Great work. Better than Toby.
Thank You for fitting us in today when already busy, clearly and rightly a very popular place with delicious reasonably priced meals and a good pint of john smiths for my hubby.
Very welcoming, friendly, polite staff and atmosphere nothing too much trouble we would highly recommend although book to avoid dissapointment. Keep up the fab team work...
The food was good, the price was good and it was easy to park which is good with a toddler in the back screaming for egg.
Tables on a Sunday can be difficult but managed to get us sat in a cozy little corner, our fault for not booking but it all worked out!
Thank you!
