Ye Old Shambles Tavern, York

Café, off-license and bar in one. The front room has a counter with three pulls, I tried the house beer made by Brown Cow which I must say wasn't outstanding. It's a café with draught beer but it's something a bit different and they're friendly people, a good choice of food is of course guaranteed. There's a downstairs room at the back which has an unusable door out to the market behind. It's traditionally furnished with Britannia tables, chairs, stools and leather armchairs and sofas. Upstairs is another room with a window overlooking the tourist maelstrom of the Shambles.
