The Gillygate - York

My twin brother Stephen and I found this pub as we were pub hopping around this part of York and what a great find. Walking in and I knew I would enjoy my visit here, the pub has a lovely interior, great decor and furnishings, the main room is dominated by a solid wood serving bar, theres tv's to enjoy the sport and theres plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub, its also dog friendly and offers accommodation, it's just one really good locals pub. We were here on a Saturday night, pub was busy with a great atmosphere, greeted warmly by a very pleasant member of staff who served us a cider each,we luckily managed to get a table were we just kicked back,chilled out and took in the great pub we were in. On this visit I cannot really comment on the meals as we were here only for drinks but I must say that the meals leaving the kitchen looked and smelt delicious, proper pub grub. My cider was outstanding, an iced cold and sparkling cider that certainly cut through my thirst,a really refreshing cider indeed. We both really enjoyed our ciders in here and although our visit was only fleeting for a first time visit we were totally impressed with The Gillygate. The Gillygate is easy to locate along Gillygate. A great pub ,well worth a visit if your in the area, it's not to far from Bootham Bar and Exhibition Square.

I have visited and eaten here for many years and it is the best italian in york as far as I am concerned! However I have to say tonight's meal was far from great....do you have a new chef? The linguine was watery, the ravioli tasteless..... Sorry disappointed first time in 10 years

Lovely place to stay staff very well mannered pilot, rooms were lovely, garden nice nd quiet very good for the money

Nice and comfortable pub with rooms . Friendly staff. Tired rooms but clean and comfortable. Would stay again.

Surprising place. Well informed staff happy to chat and give advice about other places to eat/drink. Food was nice home made and fast.
