Lovely old pub with friendly staff and good beer. Very comfortable.

On the way back to town from the racecourse I stopped here on Saturday. This is a decent little locals pub that is very handily placed.
Separate little rooms and nooks inside with a large garden area with a gazebo type shelter in the back, perfect for the warm Saturday evening of my visit.
3 ales on hand pumps, I had a very decent pint of Theakstons Lightfoot, the other choices were Theakston’s Old Peculiar and John Smith’s Cask.
Relatively busy with most people sat out the back.
Friendly bar staff. All in all a nice retreat away from the madness of Micklegate on race day…I had 1 pint then moved onto the Punchbowl.

This is a large traditional looking pub near to the river. Inside is quite a surprise as it is very modern & clean with large comfy chairs. Tasteful with a good atmosphere. I had a nice pint from Copper Dragon Brewery.

A nice traditional drinking venue, service is pretty quick even when it's busy.

Nice enough. Got a very local feel to it, but not unfriendly. Like the room at the back.

Used to be a good friendly local about 8 years ago, now it's a place for the SERIOUS drinker.
