From the East Cheeseburger to the Seafood Platter, they have a menu of New York-inspired eats to fill your belly. Fancy something lighter?"

"Canal-side pub and restaurant from the savvy team behind Belgrave and Headrow House, Water Lane Boathouse is a cool spot for dinner with friends, a casual date, or lazy board games on a Sunday afternoon.

With a vast array of beers, wines and cocktails, and a menu of wood-fired pizzas and mouthwatering burgers."

All the classics are offered on their special Bambini menu, from pizzas to bolognese, and they all come in at under £5.

Vegetarians, vegans and people with dietary allergies are well catered for and there are plenty of non-meat sausages and vegetable stir fries in among the homemade pies and bangers and mash. On the odd occasion York gets hot enough, there’s a pretty, covered walled garden in the courtyard."

"What would your journey to the north of England be without the opportunity to eat the traditional English breakfast, or fry up, or collection of things that shouldn’t go together but do. Depending on where in England you are you could hear one of those two first items, although many of you will be thinking the latter upon trying one. Moments Café provides one of the best English breakfasts you can find with a family atmosphere."

"Located on the North side of the Minster, Dean’s Park is a quiet, green oasis offering incredible views of the Gothic Cathedral and the Minster Library. Some ruins of a 12th-century cloister – probably from the Old Palace – are still standing. While it originally was accessible only to members of the church, today it’s open to the public."

"Yes, I’m aware it’s a chain but Byron burgers are too elite not to mention. Consistency is key from chains and I can confirm that ordering Byron to your uni house does just that. There is the odd occasion where the chips aren’t awfully crispy upon arrival, but just pop them back in the oven and complain to Deliveroo and you’ve got yourself a fiver."
