Large hotel and free house at the end of Marygate on the way to the Ouse.
Dropped in here on the way between town and The Minster Inn, not a pub I had seen before so worth a quick stop.
6 ales on the hand pumps. 2 from GK with the remaining 4 being from Yorkshire breweries. I opted for a half of Saltaire's Sir Titus @ 3.8%, a more than drinkable drop.
A few people eating, the food looked alright but there was quite a stench of food around the pub which I find very off putting.
Decent music playing and a tv on mute, showing I don't know what!

Judging by the generic interior and the presence of Old Speckeld hen and Abbot i would assume this pub is tied in some way to Spirit/Greene king. this pub is located behind the museum gardens and near the river ouse down a dark back road, if you dint know it was here I don't believe many people would ever come here.
There was still a good selection of guest beers with Copper dragon golden pippin, York Guzzler and Terrior and another i cant remember,at £3.10 the golden pippin was a reasonably good price and kept very nicely.
This was a very pleasant place to sit and have a drink but was a little quite as there is really not much going on in the surrounding area. If ever around i would gladly have another drink here though as they ahve some very nicely kept local ale, just not the sort of place to stay all night.
