Hi.

I'm going for a little childfree break to York for a couple of days with DP and was looking for places to eat.

There are so many so I thought I would ask for your recommendations.

🙂

Are you Vegan or do you like Vegan food? If so I'd recommend Source. Really imaginative dishes, kid friendly, and right in city centre near the castle.

If you are not vegan and like well cooked meat/salads etc then I'd recommend Yakamoz Turkish restaurant, we really enjoyed it there 😊

SaffyWall · 30/06/2022 10:42

A few faves...

Ambiente Tapas - there are two branches in York now.
Meltons Too
Il Paradiso Del Cibo
Old Siam
Cafe No.8
Oshibi Korean BBQ

We are not vegan or vegetarian.

We are going without kids.

Yak and Yeti - amazing (nepal) food, the everest lamb is gorgeous!

From breakfast/brunch I recommend brew and brownie, their pancakes are delicious!

Please try Cresci. It's a pizza restaurant. Lovely pizza.

Great service and its excellent value for money. I would recommend booking.

AreolaGrande · 30/06/2022 11:02

If you like fine dining and feeling like splashing out I would recommend Roots or Le Cochon Aveugle.

Skosh is great.

Definitely Partisan for brekkie/brunch .

Puppylucky · 30/06/2022 11:03

Roots is lovely - great food in a beautiful setting

Il Paradiso is amazing, but check if they take cards, it used to be cash only. Oh, and you'll need to book.

We had really good tapas at Tabanco by Ambiente.

CuttedUpDress · 30/06/2022 11:20

Thanks everyone.

I'm looking at the menus online. 🙂

Rustique. Their set menu (certain times only) is great value and lovely.

Myotherusernameisaferrari · 30/06/2022 11:45

La Vecchia Scuola. Nice Italian, gorgeous surroundings, fabulous pianist Friday and Saturday evenings

Gazelda · 30/06/2022 11:50

Ate o'clock.
Lovely vibe with good food.

Multicolouredsequins · 30/06/2022 11:59

The Rattle Owl is very special, always excellent food, not as pretentious as Roots

ethelredonagoodday · 30/06/2022 12:02

Loads of good recommendations on here! So many lovely places to eat. We had amazing tapas the other lunchtime at a place called Soltano. It's hidden away on little stonegate, but defo worth a visit!

Roots, Skosh and Le Cochon all good but you'd need to book.

strawberrybarn · 30/06/2022 12:05

I totally loved this - www.losmorosyork.co.uk/ authentic North African restaurant!

Doubleraspberry · 30/06/2022 12:06

We have had two ‘treat’ meals in the last few months at Skosh and the Rattle Owl. Both were amazing. The Rattle Owl is easier to book but has a set tasting menu so you need to be fairly relaxed about what you eat, and a set price, which is fairly high for the full tasting menu. Skosh has a menu and the cost of it is up to you (mostly small plates).

Pairings wine bar does interesting wine and really good grazing platters of nice meat and cheese.

Doubleraspberry · 30/06/2022 12:07

Oh, and Mannions for sandwiches/cake.

harriethoyle · 30/06/2022 12:09

Starr in the Citie is excellent, I would really recommend

LittleMy77 · 30/06/2022 20:33

Roots if you want ott tasting menu
Star inn for Michelin brasserie type food
