A modern shop conversion, this is a very bricky split-level establishment; it’s also dog obsessed, with a ‘doggie wall’ of pooch pics.
There were seven pumps, with thirds available, all card-only, me plumping for a half of the Brass Castle Bad Kitty and a very nice drop too.
One not to miss, but may not appeal to the pub traditionalist.

A decent shop conversion with an interesting interior ,all the flooring was in york stone ,the area around the entrance open plan but gets more traditional as you go to the rear up a step with a bar to the right and a cosy seating area to the left with wood panelling and some exposed brickwork on the way.If you have a dog,expect it's photo to be added to a collage of canine visitors.
The bar staff were great and very friendly and on my trip the ale options were Siren Lumina,Brass Castle Bad Kitty vanilla porter (NBSS 4),TT Landlord,Ossett White Rat,Harrogate Best ,Turning Point Wave Length and Derby Knight Rider .There is a helpful chalk board at the front ,I was impressed by the range of ABV's with a strong porter and would conclude that this is a must visit on any crawl.I would certainly stay longer on my next visit.

(Jan 2024 Update) No longer Black Sheep (apparently they need planning permission to remove the signage outside!) but now independently owned and, if anything, the beer range has increased with various guests replacing the Black Sheep and York brews. I counted products from some 15 breweries between the 10 handpumps and similar number of craft taps, plus a few ciders, and all quite unusual apart from the obligatory Landlord. The place itself has had a bit of a facelift, with a mix of pews, benches and chairs round Britannia tables - generally a pleasant place for a pint.
(June 2022 review)Refurbished by Black Sheep since they acquired York Brewery, this is a good drinking pub from a shop conversion on the edge of the Shambles area. Generally painted in dark blue and white, the walls are decorated with various brewing information and old equipment. The little bar in the rear room has 8 pumps with a good selection of the wider Black Sheep range and various guests from the likes of Craven, Wensleydale, Broad Oak and Little Critters, plus some keg craft. There is a small suntrap patio at the back. Worth stopping by.

Despite no longer being run by the now-defunct York Brewery, the Last Drop has re-opened and is still a good place to go for a beer. It is fairly small with an area of seating at street level to the front and with the bar up a couple of steps to the rear.
A total of 8 cask ales are served. On my Monday evening visit, these were Timothy Taylor Landlord, Ainsty Cool Citra, Bantam Best & The Last Blonde, Rudgate Odin's Blonde, Mobberley Sidekick, Three Legs Oat Stout & Caps Off Don't Mention The Wall Milk Stout. I didn't spot a real cider, but craft beers were Lost and Grounded Wanna' Go To The Sun & Hop-Handed Fallacy, Anspach and Hobday Dry-Hopped Wheat Beer, Caps Off Ice Cream Sour & Tartarus Arch Rogue.
My Three Legs Oat Stout was quite enjoyable and despite not having been here for over 15 years, this remains one of the better places to drink in the city centre.

York brewery pub with plain paneling and basic decor. Six real ales on the bar and I opted for a pint of Terrier for £3.15, not a bad price in this area of York and was very nicely kept.
Not the most entertaining atmosphere and a little uncomfortable with the hard wooden chairs as well as a cold draught from people walking in and out of the smoking area.
A nice little pub to stop off at with average beer but York brewery is not always to everyone taste. not the sort of place to stay all night but you could do a lot worse.

Real Ale Ray left this review about The Last Drop Inn
This is York Brewery's first pub. Wooden floors and paneling - toilets upstairs. The sort of place where you have a quick beer and go elsewhere. Beer was well kept, I enjoyed the Yorkshire Terrier, but Guzzler not for me.
