Graham Coombs left this review about The Priory

Another sports-based place but much nicer than its near neighbour as it still feels like a proper pub. It has a slightly dated interior, complete with tartan carpet and numerous screens round the walls. It does however have the advantage of 4 handpumps serving a changing range of Rudgate ales and that sampled was in good condition. A reasonable local boozer with some good beer.

Totally disagree with Mr Pool below. We found this to be a very friendly locals, local, with loads of old boys having a beer after a dominoes match on a Monday night. Three handpumps on the bar with two on. The landlord told us that current trade doesn't allow him to have all three on without the quality suffering. My pint was in good nick, so I can't disagree with his policy. We ended up having 2 here as Ms CAMRA thought the red wine was good as well. We called in on the Tuesday on our way back to the hotel and one of the beers had been changed, so a reasonable throughput. The new beer was in good nick as well. We'll call in again next time we're in York as it's a decent stopping off point between the city centre and our hotel.

I thought this place might be an old traditional York boozer from outside but sadly I was mistaken. it’s a bog standard, ripped out circuit pub with nothing really to recommend about it. York Guzzler and Doom Bar available on hand pump but no one was drinking them. Walk past it.
