Steve C left this review about The Slug & Lettuce

This was my first of two Slug & Lettuce bars visited during a recent midweek afternoon walk around York with the family. The interior is L-shaped with the main entrance on Back Swinegate and a rear entrance on Swinegate just to the right of Coffee Yard. There is split-level seating throughout and the tiled bar counter supports premium keg alongside Beavertown’s Neck Oil. There was some dance pop music playing for the entertainment of the one other customer. Apart from the barmaid’s cleavage bursting at the seams there was very little to report and I don’t plan on returning.

Fairly typical Slug & Lettuce, with a bright, modern, contrived interior, a significant part of which was roped off at time of visit, probably due to shortage of staff. This plus the volume of tourists also possibly accounted for an actual queue snaking away from an otherwise empty bar, which I obviously refused to join. The only saving grace was a decent pint of Black Sheep, and they had taken the trouble to get a Cask Marque listing, so at least someone cares about the beer.

Trendy up market around the bed of little stonegate. I only ventured here because of the discount I could get off a friend working otherwise this place is hideously expensive. To my suprise there are three real ales available, on my trip there was Greene King IPA, Harviestoun Bitter and twisted and Duchars IPA, my bitter and twisted was kept very nicely but steep at around the £3.60 mark.
Not my sort of place at all, it attracts too many wanna be fancy pants types that pay £4 for bottled 330ml budwiiser rather than buy a draught pint for the same price. I would not return in a hurry though good real ale is a bonus so it could be a lot worse .
