Local boozer near the busy bishopthorpe road. the pub did have three real ales and at £3 my pint of copper dragon golden pipin was in very good nick. the locals at first surprised to see new faces were very accommodating and welcomed newcomers into their pub and saw it as a good thing, more than can be said for other pubs in York. although i wouldn't go out of my way to return I would pop in again if ever around the area as the beer was very nice, regulkarly changes and is sold at a good price.

A rather simply furnished, but traditional pub on one of York's main arteries, but not on the tourist trail at all. Two rooms, both served from a central bar, one of which has a pinball machine. There were only about 6 of us in the pub, but the jukebox was blaring as if there was a crowd of 200. 6 handpumps including a real cider. My pint of Ilkley was in good nick. It's not one of my favourite pubs in York, but I'd happily call in again in walking past.

This pub was very quiet - in that there were only half a dozen people in there including the small PuG group who had become separated from the main group. The pub is as described by the previous reviewer. The pinball was "Fish Tails", not one of the best games around, but nonetheless it's nice to see a pub with one of these machines installed. The juke box was on too loud for my taste, but maybe I'm in a minority in that respect.

There were a couple of tall tables/tall stools, but the majority of seating was of the more traditional kind. This struck me as a fairly plain, and unpretentious pub. The ale selection was surprisingly good, but for me this wasn't one the best York pubs. But maybe I had been spoilt by the steady stream of superb pubs that I had already visited during the day.
