Ye Old Shambles Tavern in York

Excellent tavern in The Shambles in the historic city of York. It is bright, well maintained with a decent menu, God food and all at very reasonable prices. Plenty of beers to choose from and other drinks of course with friendly staff. Worth popping in if you are visiting the area.

Really welcoming warm staff, nice warm fresh soup, thankful to had a short rest here while going about the day. Really nice interior to of the old Victoria house!

Very unique and classic designed tavern with a large, reasonably priced selection of beers and other drinks. Service was friendly and food was great tasting, with great value for money. A wide variety of seating is available inside and out. Was a shame that the kitchen closed early most nights, how ever it's understandable, due to how quite it was during this time of year. I recommend visiting a lunch to not be disappointed.

Lovely little pub with great beer. But where it really excelled is that it enabled me to sit and wait for all the annoying camera wielding tourists (just like me!) that usually fill the shambles to disappear and leave the way clear for me to get some much nicer pictures!!!

Nice ambient pub, where one can sit outside (or inside if you like) and sup away at a variety of local ales and lagers that they provide. The advice regarding ales is top notch, and the service and craic was pretty good too. I enjoyed the dark stout and people watching outside. I would return!

Cosy little proper pub. Dog friendly. Sandwiched between Shambles and the market with access both sides. Stumbler was a nice drop on the handpulled selection. I noticed the Tavern still had some of the original butchers hooks firmly embedded in the ceiling, but with nothing more innocuous than a lantern suspended from it. One loo downstairs for both male and female. Prompt service, a little oasis twixt the Potter madness of Shambles and the bustle of the market. Would revisit.

Friendly welcoming staff, enjoyed a couple of glasses of mulled wine outside in the beer garden, excellent outdoor heating.

The back bar is a peaceful place away from the tourist hotspot of the street itself. The front bar has several hand pumps and loads of cans and almost doubles up as an off license

Amazing little pub. Super friendly staff. Loads of different drinks which the staff are more the happy to recommend. Would happily drink here every night. 10/10

Nice little place to stop for a drink, especially if you’re a real ale drinker. I’m not, but the guy behind the bar sorted us right out with some nice Rum’s which we drank out the back in their beer garden, which is basically falls onto the Shambles Market.If you’re in York then you’ll probably be heading for the Shambles anyway so I’d recommend a stop in here!
