1331 is York’s only bar with actual digits in its name (apart from pubs such as the Three Cranes and Three Tuns etc who are refered to in the more traditional alphabetical way).
So why this numerical moniker thepubsofyork.com hear you shout?
Surely it can’t be in honour of the battle of Plowce which was fought on [...]

The Biltmore sits on Swinegate in a lovely part of central York that seems to be home to trendy hairdressers and lots of cobbles. It is close to Vudu Lounge and (the “new”) Oscars and if you know these other two bars you’ll probably think that it is more than likely that the Biltmore is an uber [...]

Bobo Lobo sits on Little Stonegate opposite the imaginatively titled Stonegate Yard and just down the road from Kennedys. It is York’s only ‘Latin American Cocktail Bar and Restaraunt’ and as such offers a unique drinking experience.
However, the pubsofyork.com is about as Latin as Sean Bean or Yorkshire Pudding, and this subsequently means that crossing [...]

According to thepubsofyork.com’s dog-eared dictionary, revolution means “a drastic and far-reaching change in ways of thinking and behaving”.
Quite why the people behind Vodka Revolution think that this bar, or indeed the vodka it sells, is a drastic change from the thousands of other places offering a similar drinking experience is beyond the wit of this [...]

If you’ve read the reviews of the other pubs that reside on this road you’ll know that thepubsofyork.com has a sincere fondness for Goodramgate. The Golden Slipper, the Royal Oak, Ko Ko and the Habit are all belting boozers that sit on this ancient street and York’s premier pub review website expected, based [...]

This place is part of a chain of trendy, fashionable bars that probably put as much focus on the food they cook up as on the drinks they serve.
It sits just off Coney Street next to Vodka Revolution, City Screen and Orgasmic and affords lovely views across the Ouse to North Street if [...]

If this isn’t the first review you’ve read from this website then you’ll probably guess that it’s not going to be a glowing write up of this trendy, often thronging city centre bar. And you’d be right.
Apparently this place is a Cafe Bar and thepubsofyork.com has a big problem with these places; cafes serve cooked [...]

The Phoenix is perhaps York’s most aptly named pub, and thankfully, the pub most amenable to lazy metaphors …..
Over the last few years this ale house has closed, risen from the ashes, re-opened and then always closed again shortly afterwards. This sequence was repeated more times than this website cares to remember, but now, it [...]

thepubsofyork.com doesn’t pretend to be some sort of authority on this sort of thing (and how dare it when it was once a Boy Scout AND used to collect Warhammer models) but this place is probably one of York’s coolest bars.
It manages to give off a laid back, chilled out vibe without any of the [...]
