Bouncers here are animals, plenty of police incidents to their names. If you're young and/or drinking you can expect them to find any excuse to go after you with a little assault and battery. When you ring police they'll hide inside. Last happened to friends of mine a few years back, I see from recent reviews nothing has changed. Seems staff are used to it and complicit. Don't support this likely criminal establishment, plenty of better places in York.
Food wasn't being served at the time of our visit so I cannot comment on that, it was quiet too. Did enjoy the much needed drink after the long drive and the staff were very helpful...
The bouncers in this place get an absolute kick of screaming and patronising young, vulnerable, sober women for accidentally not standing where they should in the queue which is absolutely disgusting. It’s happened to far too many people I know and clearly from these reviews it continuously happens. Bouncers have disgusting, threatening behaviour to the point where they scream in your face and clearly the management don’t care enough about their business to make changes. The pub itself is dirty and it’s £7 for a single gin and lemonade. Seriously don’t know how this pub claims to be the best in York. If it wasn’t on the waterfront they’d be long gone.
We went here for lunch during a city break to York. Nice location overlooking the river whilst we ate. We had the sharing platter and halloumi fries which was very tasty and more than enough for the pair of us.
