Family trip to York and party of 8 night out. Ambience very nice….. modern with a great vibe. Menu looks limited but is in fact more than adequate to accommodate all tastes and the food cooked to perfection. Drinks menu good and nice festive cocktails. Service was excellent despite the restaurant being full. Overall a very nice night out. We will definitely come back.

A very relaxed lunch with work colleagues. Good choice of food and drink for all appetites and some nice non-alcohol / veggie / vegan options. Service was relaxed and friendly and we could keep our table for as long as we wanted. The interior was lovely and beautifully clean. Would definitely book again!
