Top, Best & Fun Rooftop Bars in Terrington

"They say location is everything, and whether you’re in York for a romantic weekend break, or to explore the city’s historical past, Greys Court Hotel makes the ideal location from which to base your activities. Steeped in history, and with parts of its architecture dating back to the late 11th century it appears squeezed between the Minster and the Treasurer’s House. However, once through the hotel’s entrance, the connotation with squeezed ends, and you can enjoy the luxurious, historically romantic ambiance that Greys Court Hotel offers, along with all the modern conveniences you would expect from a high-end establishment."

"I studied English at St John’s University and at that time they owned Grays Court, so the vast majority of my lectures were in there, and it’s such a beautiful building!. Now, a luxury hotel and restaurant you can “explore the great British food on our evening menu in our restaurant. With seasonal ingredients sourced from the highest quality suppliers, our innovative team of chefs guarantee a dining experience like no other."

"An unexpected pleasure in the heart of York, this 16th-century mansion hotel's small restaurant focuses on British, locally produced food, some of it plucked from the house gardens. As well as multi-course..."

"Even if you stand in the ground-floor off-licence (its stock of over 600 beers will leave you slack-jawed), it is quite possible not to notice that upstairs lies one of Britain's most idiosyncratic beer bars. Tucked into the exposed eaves of a 12th-century Norman house, decorated with animal skins and ancient taxidermy, the House of Trembling Madness is a tight, friendly squeeze where hop-heads linger over two cask ales (both from the wonderful Wild Beer Co on this visit), specialist draft Belgian beers and an amazing, ever-changing selection of bottled brews (on top of which, you can drink anything that is for sale downstairs, paying £1.25 corkage). If the staff can't surprise you with something – say, a Japanese Hitachino Nest Classic Ale – you've officially exhausted the possibilities of beer."

"Decked-out like a medieval drinking hall (all exposed beams, stuffed and mounted animal heads and pelts flung over old church pews), the House of Trembling Madness is primarily a specialist beer bar. It has several alluring craft beers on draught – various Brooklyn, Bad Seed, Black Jack and Great Heck beers on this visit – and it sits above one of Britain’s best-stocked off-licences (all bottles available to drink-in, corkage £1.25). So that drinkers can line their stomachs in style, HoTM also serves a repertoire of gutsy, filling hot dishes and picky platters."

"The House of the Trembling Madness is a great place to drink in York if you’re into quirky and unusual buildings. The original Trembling Madness is much smaller, quirkier and has a very odd charm to it, whereas the newly refurbished one is much bigger and has a classier vibe to it; it also has a shop downstairs where you can purchase your drinks for a fraction of the price and then take them upstairs to drink in the bar/restaurant!. Whichever one you visit, you’re sure to delight in its weirdness and enjoy wonderfully crafted drinks."

"Unit 6, Enterprise Complex Walmgate, York, YO1 9TT01904 848448Website. No venue has made a bigger impact on the recent York pub and brewing scene than Brew York Brewery and Tap. It’s already hosted numerous beer festivals and a major expansion in 2018 will see it take over the whole of the former Maltings next door to make it a one-stop food and beer mecca, as well as expanding its brewery capacity."

"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."

"Housed in a cavernous old warehouse, half the floor space in this craft brewery is occupied by giant brewing tanks while the rest is given over to simple wooden drinking benches and a bar with rotating keg and..."

"Spark:York is a place that looks and feels like no other venue in York. It’s a vibrant, relaxed place to eat and drink, with kids or without, and a good option if you’d like a range of food and drink to choose from and take away (or eat there). There’s a changing rota of pop-up bars and restaurants, but if you imagine craft ales, edgy cocktails and some of the best street food in town, you’re not too far from the mark."

"Perhaps one of the most unique establishments in York – Spark is a vibrant hub of some of the best food and drink in the city. With large benches on the lower and upper floors, this venue is the perfect place to grab and go, or to spend an evening with a few friends and drinks."

"Community project and social destination supporting independent businesses. Inside you’ll find street food vendors, bars, retailers, beauty, holistic therapy, a co-working hub, arts studio and events space. We are family friendly and dogs are welcome."

"With magnificent sea views, out over Scarborough’s North Bay, this family-run hotel is close to the town centre, Peasholm Park, Scarborough Castle and all that the town has to offer. The Delmont Hotel has a good location, within easy reach of all of the North Bay’s amenities and holiday attractions, including Scarborough Cricket ground, The Sands complex and the Alexander Bowls centre. The shop and beaches are within easy walking distance and there are also regular buses to the neighbouring villages and towns, including Filey, Whitby and York."

"Transporting you back in time, Flares nightclub is the place to go for 90s tunes and throwback fun. When it comes to nightclubs in York, don’t take Flares to seriously as it’s all about the cheesy music and colourful dance floor. This is the perfect venue for a girls night out or hen party where you want to dress up and singalong to hit songs and musical numbers."

"York has some fabulously chic Cocktail bars at its heart around The Quarter (the central collection of streets located between Stonegate and Petergate). Bobo Lobo isn’t just one of York’s finest Cocktail bars and grills, it’s also a top venue for private parties and functions with two floors and a DJ on request. Why not make their ‘Cocktail Mixology Master Class’ part of your private party!"

"Scarborough’s vast open air theatre is located within Northstead Manor Gardens in the North Bay area and offers a packed programme of concerts featuring some of the biggest names in pop music. Ranked as the largest open air theatre in Europe, the venue is impressive and has a rich history as a natural amphitheatre dating back to the 1930s. A host of food and drink outlets are on-site alongside ample parking and merchandise stalls"

"York Theatre Royal has been producing great drama in the beautiful city of York for over 270 years and is one of the country’s leading producing theatres. Each year the theatre entertains over 200,000 people with its wide variety of performances, events and activities including the much-loved annual pantomime starring Berwick Kaler, the UK’s longest-running Dame."

"The York Theatre Royal was built in 1744 on the site of the medieval St. Leonard’s Hospital. Parts of the old hospital can still be seen, including archways and walls. Under the stage lies a well, which is believed to be from the Roman era."

"Hong Kong Chop House is notable for its diverse menu, and it is this element that makes it one of the best Chinese takeaways in York. They serve authentic Chinese cuisine from various regions, so you will find Cantonese dishes alongside Sichuan meals and food from Northeast China. Not only are there the typical items that are served by most Chinese restaurants, but there are also traditional Chinese dishes that are not usually found on menus in the UK."

"One of the best Asian restaurants in town, Hong Kong Chop House definitely lives up to its claim. Choose from an extensive menu including soup, dim sum, appetizers, hot and cold starters, meat, poultry, seafood dishes, vegetarian options, and more. You are just an order away from devouring a whole lot of goodness."

"New Hong Kong York has no restaurant, so takeaway for collection or delivery are the only options from this eatery. Customers say that delivery is fast, the food is of good quality, and the menu has plenty of options."

"02/06/2021: I honestly cannot fathom the amount of brain cells these people have clearly lost in their lifetime. Every time we have ordered, they have gotten the order wrong; mostly just not giving us the food we paid for. On top of that, when we called to complain, the man on the phone decided it was best to scream at us, claiming we were wrong and we didn’t see the food we hadn’t received."

"Sara Danesin is a popular British chef famed for becoming a Masterchef finalist in 2011. St John’s is the only dining club in York, taking place just three times a month. This exclusive dining experience is certainly worth the wait as you will enjoy a fabulous communal dinner with four courses personally prepared by Sara herself."
