To the left of the entrance of the Golden Slipper is a wooden floored seating area before the bar counter that runs up the left facing a thin strip of standing room to the right. At the rear of the bar is the Library, which is a small seating area overlooked by rows of bookshelves. To the right of the entrance is a carpeted sunken seating area and more seating can be found in the right rear. Regular live music is advertised for Friday Evenings and late Sunday afternoons. There was also live music advertised for the Saturday night, but during my Thursday evening visit there was just some background music playing. The barman was polite and my pint of Rooster’s Yankee was well served. The other five hand pumps were drawing Timothy Taylor’s Golden Best, Yorkshire Heart’s Blonde, Well’s Bombardier, Ainsty Ales’ Cool Citra and Weston’s Old Rosie Cider. Standard and premium keg were also available. I thought it was OK in here, but it was very quiet for a Thursday evening.

Called in again for a quick half to see if the beer had improved. It hasn't. I was served a very end of barrel half of Saltaire Gold. Shan't be bothering to give it another chance.

A narrow frontage leads to a long corridor with small rooms off to both sides. The ones on the right were all set up for dining as it was lunchtime. On the left there is a small open plan type room at the front, then the bar and then a small snug at the rear. The second room on the right has a dividing window between it and the bar corridor. Quite a few interesting bits & pieces around the walls and a dartbord in the rear right room. 5 handpumps on the bar serving the not very interesting selection of Old Speckled Hen, TT Golden Best, Bombardier, Deuchars and the slightly more interesting Roosters Yankee. I tried a Yankee. This was a very tired pint, not quite bad enough to send back, but not a patch on the one I had across the road at the Snickleway about 15 minutes later. It's a pleasant enough pub, but on this occasion the beer quality let it down.

A classic and ancient pub, apparently formed of two buildings knocked together so there are various nooks and crannies to the multi-roomed interior. Nicely traditional and definitely worth including on a York crawl. Ales on this visit were Ossett Yorkshire Blonde, Leeds Yorkshire Gold, TT Golden Best, Bombardier and Roosters Variations on a Theme.
