"Osbornes @ 68 is another breakfast/brunch place that’s situated not too far from my house; it’s just at the bottom of Gillygate. The food here is absolutely wonderful, with friendly staff and quick service; definitely a place to head to on a lunchtime with friends!. I’d recommend: the club sandwich or the spicy chicken and salsa wrap (and a hot chocolate, as always!)."

"From grain to glass, see how traditional ale is created at York Brewery. Located just inside the city walls on Toft Green, York Brewery has been handcrafting real ales since 1996. The brewery site was built in the late 16th century, and has seen many uses over its history, but now it is home to a 20-barrel brew plant, with six traditional open top fermenters and five conditioning tanks."

"Located on Walmgate, the beer garden at Brew York is a hidden gem that overlooks the River Foss and Rowntree’s Wharf. With unique barrel benches and YUZU street food also on offer, make this your next stop for a fresh brew."

"If a restaurant sells out of everything on the menu most days, you can make a safe bet for the place being either fairly disorganised or fairly popular. Luckily, the latter is true of York’s fabled sandwich shop, Shambles Kitchen. A sandwich you’ll need a wheelbarrow to shift will set you back no more than 7 quid and the ever-changing menu ensures there is something new and tasty each time you swing by."

"Shambles Kitchen is one of York’s original purveyors of street food, and is still one of the best. As well as their tiny permanent home on the famous Shambles, they can often be found selling their popular meat sandwiches, loaded fries and sausage combos on Shambles Market or Parliament Street. Vegan and veggie options are available, and they even do a kids’ hot sandwich too."

They traded along the English coast, northern Europe and sometimes as far as the Baltic and Iceland, bringing back an assortment of desired goods to York. The city was an important river port and the wealthiest city in Northern England, second only to London for most of the Middle Ages, allowing the merchants to make enough money to build the Hall between 1357 and 1361."

"The Merchant Adventurers' Hall is a restored medieval guildhall dating from the 14th century. The Great Hall is Britain's largest timber-framed building still used for its original purpose. The hall is still used by the Company of Merchant Adventurers of the City of York, now a charitable organization."

"York's most impressive semi-timbered building is still owned by the fraternity that built it almost 650 years ago and it is the oldest surviving guildhall of its kind in Britain. The owner was originally a..."

Visitors can even visit the resident Humboldt penguins at feeding time!"
