Boutique style of pub, but a good one at that. Staff very friendly, a multi-roomed pub. If you go out to the back terrace there's a fab view of the Minster Cathedral.
Food looked very inviting will give a go next visit. Handpumps I went for the Copper Dragon Freddie Trueman, Acorn Brewery Old Moor Porter and the Wharfbank Carry me Home. Will return

Easily overlooked this pub is two old buildings knocked into one, formerly a well thought of restaurant, it nestles next to Bootham Bar on High Petergate - in York a bar is a gate and a gate is a street. Converted into a pub cum small hotel in 2008, it is owned by the people who own the Guy Fawkes Hotel further up High Petergate. It got a mention in a Guardian summer pubs supplement (June 2009). Four pumps with a range of well kept UK regional and micro brewery beers with the less common Erdinger, and Bitburger plus Amstel and Kronenburg. Traditional dark wood front bar with bench seating, small dark wood tables and stools plus those daft tall two tier tables; bare floor boards and big clear windows complete the look. Down the corridor from the clinically tiled entrance are “back snugs” or small intimate drinking/dining rooms, also on the ground floor is a “Top Parlour” which is the ground floor of the second of the two buildings. This is a large elegant room with sash windows. Upstairs are the letting rooms.

No bar now but very nice small hotel for a stay inside the City Walls.
