I prefer this pub to its sister The Slip down the road as it is has a more traditional interior and has at least as good a range of beers on, including the occasional 'foreigner' from outside Yorkshire. I freely admit I would happily spend time in either though. On this occasion I had the Pennine Palenka Plum and Brandy Stout, which was ok but not as pokey as the name might suggest.

Final one of 6 today in York. This is a blue plaqued, Tetley Heritage pub and the interior is unchanged and perfectly pubby. A snug, corridor leading to bar and back rooms.

TT Landlord has made me question by proclamation that the Bolt Maker I had in the Slip inn is the best from this brewery.

Great beer.

Enjoyed our visit to this 2019 Good Beer Guide pub last month, as were a lot of lads dressed up for York races and giving everyone a bit of a sing song. We sat in the comfy back room and enjoyed our ale choice of Revolution Word up and Imperial Nah Then.
