York Pub Reviews

Fantastic diamond of a pub. Brilliant quality food, very reasonably priced in comparison to any other restaurant I've been to with same quality food. Excellent service, from our lovely female waitress.

Did I mention their real ale choice? Just excellent really well-kept ales, all perfectly served, crystal clear! Bar staff are really informative and know their products. Credit to all the staff there!

Been several times and have never been disappointed. By far the best real ale pub and restaurant in Sheffield.

Very disappointed. The decor is lovely but the prices for food here are comparable with decent restaurant prices in this area.

Portions were minuscule. Sharing are platters not big enough to be shared - not even with a mouse! I suggest they do some market research - customers do not want to feel ripped off.

We definitely would not recommend it & will not eat there again.

Went for lunch with friends and thought it was absolutely appalling. Kept hearing some Scottish guy shouting abuse at the chefs, which was very upsetting. And to top it all the food was terrible. Will never go back.

Been to The York at Broomhill a number of times with my Dad for lunch or with my mate Mat for the start of our Broomhill / Ranmoor / Nether Green pub crawl.

We all like the decor and staff are very welcoming. Dad and I both think the food is very good and fairly priced. We have now been there 3 or 4 times in the past 3 or 4 months, finding the staff and food consistently spot on.

I usually drink Guinness and it is not available, but a porter is sold and makes a pleasant change not like some I have tried in the past.

Friendly staff and good service.

Food was absolutely awful - undercooked fish in leathery batter, bullet-hard peas and barely cooked chips.

Would not return unless heavily sedated.

This place is fantastic. The refurb is amazing and it looks great but would the food and service be as good? Oh yes! Great menu, fantastic food, value for money, friendly staff.

We went with 2 children and the staff were so helpful. The kiddies menu is great at £4.95 for a main course, drink and dessert but it is smaller versions of some of the main courses and my little boy didn't fancy the garlic sausage stew but demolished the fish and chips quickly enough!

Overall a brilliant dining out experience and we will be back soon. Even considering Christmas Day.

Very nice pub generally, but despite having a valid ID I was not allowed in. This was due to my hair being short on my ID and the manager of the York claimed it wasn't me. I had plenty of evidence showing my name on university licences, rail card, but he still would not allow me to go in. This picture is accepted on my passport and I have no queries by passport control. Furthermore my friends were already in the York and he would not let me go in and inform them of what was going on, forcing me to find a payphone to ring them. As a result me and my friends have boycotted until the matter has changed!

York Pub News

The York pub in Broomhill has reopened under new management.

According to its website, the York pub is now closed, as it has been sold to a private buyer.

The York in Broomhill will cease to be a Scream pub from October 21st this year, and pass into the hands of the Dove and Rainbow (Sheffield CAMRA "Pub Of The Month" February 2008). The York will be closed for 10 days for a refurbishment 'backwards' to a traditional pub, serving an eclectic range of cask ales and ciders from around the UK. The transformation from discount chain £1 a pint Scream to a 'proper' pub will see the welcome return to Broomhill of one of its former great 'locals', taken over by Scream 7 years ago.

Despite the South Sea having its extended license application turned down, another Broomhill pub has won an extension. The York has been given permission to open until Midnight Sunday to Thursday and until 1AM every Friday and Saturday. They had hoped to open until Midnight Monday to Wednesday and until 1AM Thursday to Sunday but council officials deemed this too much.
