The Ackhorne, York

An oasis of calm, especially on Saturday night when the rest of the bars in the area are truly awful. The landlady seems to have a way of dealing with noisy types which means that they never get out of hand. Totally recommended.

The York Arms, York

It has gone from worse to even worse. The new landlady has allowed all the previously barred people back in with the result that there are frequent fights and loud arguments flying back and forth laced with four letter words. Tourists and families with children should not venture in, the atmosphere is so bad, especially on Saturday nights.

Coopers, York

I used to be a regular here but I gave it up when the York Tap opened next door. The Coopers bar staff are normally students are very pleasant and the place has been refurbished so it can no longer be called "dirty" but as another poster said its days are surely numbered, at least as a bar. Since the Tap does not do food, Coopers would be better as a restaurant.Beers are still hideously overpriced and they no longer accept their own "loyalty card"!
