Graham Coombs left this review about Duke of York

Being in a shopping street just off the Shambles this pub tends to get a bit infested with shoppers and tourists rather than locals, however the beer range is some compensation. The pub itself has rather a cluttered layout, with areas extending off either side of the central bar and more room upstairs, and with fairly standard furnishings and decor, but is not bad if you avoid the busiest times. Ales on were 3 from Leeds Brewery, 2 from Camerons and Brass Castle Bad Kitty, plus a couple of Lilley's fruit concoctions. There were some reasonable craft keg brews on as well.

An early Thursday afternoon visit to the Duke of York found an empty pub, which was odd because a fire breathing entertainer on a really high unicycle had drawn large crowds to the square outside. Directly ahead of the entrance is the bar area with a counter that runs up the right facing seating to the left. More seating is found further left and to the right of the entrance is a thin strip of seating that runs along the front windows. This area is dimly lit with a low ceiling and an exposed brick fireplace on the right-hand wall. A flight of stairs to the left of the entrance leads up to some more seating, a small dining room and the toilets at the rear. There are no televisions, but there was some background music playing.
The bar supports premium and craft keg and there are three banks of four hand pumps. Some were doubled up, so the cask options were Leeds Pale, Midnight Bell and Best alongside Camerons Brewery’s Crown, Rudgate’s Oliver Twist, Saltaire’s Aquilla and a couple of Lilley’s ciders. Food is available, the burgers are priced just north of £15. I found the service to be polite and the beer choice was good, but the atmosphere was non-existent. Yes the pub was empty, but I got the feeling that this is a naturally sedate pub even when full.

A multi roomed pub, in prime position near the top of the Shambles and also attracts a bit of an audience outside when the street performers are around. Lots of Leeds Brewery beers to choose from compared to the Eagle and Child, plus a couple of guests. These were Saltaire Amarillo and Ainsty Ales Flummoxed Farmer. Very much a tourist trap, with people mostly calling in to dine.
