Fairly large bar, with a subterranean feel not least due to all surfaces being painted black. A frontage on Little Stonegate and an alleyway off Stonegate lead into a maze of areas with a bar in the middle. It is sufficiently dark to make it difficult to read the keg taps but I eventually made out some mainstreamish craft from Camden, Beavertown etc. with a couple more interesting including a Tiny Rebel. A recently-added TT Landlord handpump is slightly more obvious. Not sure what the place would be like when busy but on a quiet afternoon it was ok, if nothing special.

As Alex says a trendy bar in a trendy part of York. No real ale available on our visit. There's multiple rooms and areas with lots of distressed wood. A very friendly place, but we raised the average age by quite a few years. Decent music supplied by a live duo on a Sunday evening. Pretty expensive, but not bad for this kind of place.

Trendy bar aimed at younger people down little stonegate. This bar is fairly laid back during the day but in the evenings especially at weekends it becomes almost a nightclub with loud music blasting out and all tables and chairs moved out so pretty much standing room only.The main bar is spread along the back wall with another smaller bar upstairs but if you want their lone ale this is situated on the downstairs bar on the right. On my visit they were dispensing Buxton brewery moor top and this was a superb beer in really nice condition, this went against everything i would expect from a beer in a bar like this late on a Saturday night but was hideously expensive at £3.90.

This is really not my sort of place but it is very popular, if you find yourself being forced to a late night bar there are worse examples that have no ale at all so I suppose credit for that but I wont be returning any time soon unless forced again.
