"We are an independent speciality coffee shop/restaurant situated in York’s most elegant street. We have an all day Breakfast/Brunch menu and a few lunch dishes. We cook everything to order using the best quality fresh ingredients."

"At Brew & Brownie “we are inspired by the seasons, our countryside upbringing, our urban adulthood, the food we craved as children, to the tastes we developed as we grew. We aim to bring this vision to life at our cafe and coffee house in the centre of York. We have spent many hours researching and discovering some of Yorkshire’s best produce, such as Raydale Preserves based in the sleepy village of Stalling Busk, Johnson’s free range eggs, Bishy Road’s M & K butchers, Wilson’s Butchers based in Huntington, not to mention Haxby Bakehouse’s amazing bread!"

"They always have a great selection of cakes, brownies and pastries too. Beautiful ambience, excellent food & delicious cakes. The wonderful staff provides a first class service."

"They’re renowned for their fancy afternoon tea, scrumptious cakes and desserts and lovely staff. While grabbing a table at Betty’s can often see you queuing for quite sometime (make sure to arrive much earlier than you anticipate on eating!); once inside, you’ll truly be spoiled for choice with the vast range of delicious lunch options available. I’d recommend: traditional afternoon tea, red pepper frittata or the Caesar salad."

"Betty’s is arguably one of the most highly coveted places in York and not only does it serve ridiculously delicious afternoon and an extensive food menu, it’s also spectacularly ornately decorated inside, which means it’s the perfect place to bring your camera along when dining here."

"Betty’s Cafe is famous in York for elegant and traditional dining. You can pop in a cup of tea, lunch, dinner or afternoon tea. They also serve a fabulous breakfast."

"Their breakfast/brunch menu is completely unique, with fresh fruit chia puddings, banana, blueberry and almond loaves, rissoles, frittatas and crumpets. Not ideal if you’re after a bit of bacon, but having tried their Tofu Nourish Bowl on their lunch menu, I can vouch for the food here. OPENING HOURS: Breakfast/brunch is served until 12pm"

"An excellent vegetarian cafe, Goji is one of the city’s top-rated places to enjoy a vegan dish. This welcoming cafe is devoted to giving you healthy and sumptuous food, including vegan diets too. Having been providing the city with good food for a while now, this restaurant has a beautiful interior decor and a great atmosphere."

"Offering take away or eat in service, Goji’s is a repeatedly tried and tested favourite of mine. As an added benefit you will be supporting a local York company with your custom. I highly recommend the Goji hot dog and the fruit crumble with oat cream."

"Expect to queue for a table at this busy bistro (no reservations), with its convivial atmosphere and selection of delicious daily specials. Regulars on the menu include eggs Benedict for breakfast, a chunky..."

"Relaxed rustic-chic cafe and deli dishing up French and Italian-style food and freshly-baked bread. Address : 1 Blake St, York YO1 8QJ, UK"

"This small independent cafe near the Monkbar walls offers table service and a homely environment. They serve a lovely menu of freshly cooked dishes as well as a selection of sweet and savoury treats that are baked on the premises each day. Wheldrakes is a licensed cafe so if you fancy something stronger than their excellent home blend coffee, they have plenty of alcoholic beverages to choose from."

"This independent coffee shop and tearoom on Goodramgate serves up homebakes, delicious brunch dishes, great coffee and more. With many delicious treats on the window display, it will be difficult to walk past this place…"

"Valhalla is York’s only traditional Viking pub and just being there is an entire experience in itself!. You’ll find people drinking strong, strange ales and mead out of a real Viking drinking horn!. The do also serve regular beers, lagers and spirits as well, but no cocktails unfortunately!"

"A classic bowling alley for the whole family, there are 28 lanes to choose from, as well as arcade games, laser quest and birthday party options. Visit the Tenpin York website"

"This subterranean drinking establishment that has a touch of speakeasy in its Spanish DNA has become a local favourite. Regulars value its excellent selection of artisan drinks and also its slightly clandestine credentials with its blink and you’ll miss it single door entrance on Little Stonegate. Its big next door brother Kennedy’s bar is the extrovert whilst Sotano plies its trade in the shadows."

"For a night of creative cocktails and great sharing dishes, Sotano is the place. The food here is Meditteranean served tapas style with a selection of grilled fish, meats, veggies, olives, croquettes, and tortillas. All the ingredients are 100% Spainish, providing guests with authentic flavours."

"Sotano is an independent bar and restaurant in York serving Mediterranean tapas plates and classically-inspired cocktails. Authentic with a modern twist, our food and drink is crafted by our well-traveled and technically astute team. New discoveries and seasons inspire our menus …"

"Soak up the sunshine and take stock of your day’s sightseeing by enjoying one of York’s magnificent parks. The city is blessed with an abundance of green spaces, so take your pick...The York Museum Gardens are one of the reasons York is so wonderful. As well as being a beautiful botanical garden, you’ll find the Yorkshire Museum, York Observatory, York Hospitium, the ruins of St Mary’s Abbey and a Roman Fortress."

"Visiting the Museum Gardens is yet another free activity to do in York. On a nice, summer’s day you can bring a picnic here and relax on a bench or the grass. You can also explore the ruins of the medieval St. Mary’s Abbey, or simply visit The Yorkshire Museum."

"This is a lovely place to relax and unwind in the heart of the city. Grab yourself a coffee or snack and sit on one of the benches with a friend, taking it all in. York Museum Gardens is home to some amazing trees and plants."

"Dean’s Park offers fantastic views, a great place to stretch out and enjoy a break during a busy day, as well as soft drink and ice cream refreshments available during summer. You may also want to view nearby York Minster. There is an admission charge for entering this cathedral but it doesn’t cost anything to take in the magnificent exterior!"

"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."

"A beautiful place to soak in the sun and enjoy an ice cream cone, Dean’s Park offers beautiful views and plenty of green, open space. Spread out a blanket and enjoy stunning views of the Minster and its Chapter House."
