"As the name suggest, Brew & Brownie make an abundance of different flavoured brownies. I must have sampled about 4 of them during my time in York, and even stopped by before I caught the train home so that I could enjoy a little treat on the journey!.

"What: A favourite of our Editor, this quintessential Yorkshire tea room is a must-visit for visitors to York. Most associate Bettys with afternoon tea – and it does do a mean one – but there’s a whole menu of savouries for lunch and dinner, from Yorkshire rarebits to omelettes and salads, in addition to its sweet offering. Queues are inevitable, but anyone who wants to sample an English tradition that has all but vanished ought to persevere."

"When anyone thinks of afternoon tea in York or even Yorkshire, probably the first name that springs to mind is Bettys. Going strong for over 100 years with queues out of the door come rain or shine, this very English institution ticks all the right boxes for a delicious afternoon tea. 6-8 St. Helen’s Square, York YO1 8QP – 01904 659142"

"Those rustic, home-baked breads and beautiful cakes at the front of the shop aren’t mere window-dressing. This deli-cafe delivers on that advertised promise. Owner/chef Andrew Burton learned his trade in some of Britain’s best kitchens, including North Yorkshire’s renowned Star Inn, and he brings a similar rigour to Mannion & Co’s more modest menu of cheese and charcuterie platters, gourmet sandwiches and daily hot specials, such as eggs Benedict, rarebit or, more adventurously, Alsace bacon and boudin noir with fried eggs and toast."

"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!)."

"Another repurposed building, The Judge’s Lodging is a Grade I-listed Georgian townhouse which in its former life was, well - it’s all in the name, isn’t it?. The imposing red brick exterior of this former home now gives way to an eccentrically stylish high-end hotel. Where The Grand does classical five-star grandeur, the Judge’s Lodging offers a kind of quirky, opulent, nudge-wink decor - as you can see in the bar’s judge-themed wallpaper."

Offering an appealing array of drinks from their cask ale bar to their medicinal cabinet loaded with the finest gins and whiskies. Soak in the sun on top of this restored Georgian townhouse just a short walk from the River Ouse."
