Enjoyed our visit to this 2019 Good Beer Guide bar last month, and selected 6 of the cask ales on offer from Cocksure, Three Brothers, Manchester, Great Heck and Siren Craft breweries, all of which were fine. One not to miss when visiting York or even if changing trains. Selection of craft beers and ciders available too.

Visited yesterday (Sunday) afternoon while in York. The place was reasonably busy but there were free tables inside. Most people didn't seem to stay for very long so were presumably filling time between trains, so in that respect tables soon become free.
Entering from the station concourse through the outdoor seating area you are presented with 10 hand pulls for real ale, and on further investigation you will find another 10 round the other side of the circular island bar. I noticed at least one was a cider. There is a chalk board listing what is on all 20 pumps, so you can just pick from that rather than having to inspect all the pump clips individually.
Most of the tables are the round type with four chairs around, and we did see a couple of people struggling to navigate through them with suitcases. The windows look original with stained glass in the top sections.
Pricing didn't seem extortionate though I'm not sure what the breakdown was I was buying a mix of drinks.
The gents are quite small, just two urinals and a cubicle, but it didn't seem to be a problem really. They could have been a bit cleaner though.
My beer was nice, service was fine, and this is one I would be happy to return to.

I wasn’t prepared to like this place as much as I did. Pubs with this amount of real ale often just feel like beer festivals but here it’s perfectly done. An ideal station pub with an ornate Victorian interior. A must must visit and I speak as a cynic.
