New pub that looks like its been her for centuries. Good service, good atmosphere and extremely central. As I arrived, there was an escapologist wowing the crowds in the nearby square! Beers were from the York brewery, plus Burton Bridge Damson Porter & Titanic Stout. 3 ciders for me - Stowford Press, Aspalls and Old Rosie. Excellent!

Fabulous little oasis, great beer and ambience another must visit pub!

One of Yorks newer pubs and a welcome addition. Owned by the York brewery, their range of beers is growing in both range and quality. A pleasant experience all round.
|
I've been here a couple of times, both on pub quiz nights. The beers are great, and local, and the bar staff are friendly, and the pub quiz is a decent challenge. I'm not so keen on the little stools but you have to be there early to get a proper seat.

Enjoyed an Oldershaw ale in this fine York brewery pub. It is good to see such an excellent choice of beers. Comfortable and friendly atmosphere too.
|
Back again recently. Real ale selections still very, very good-Stonewall great, again. Barstaff very professional. Not too crowded and best of all no chavs.
|
York Brewery's first pub. Their Stonewall (cask) was in perfect nick. Decent pub.
|
Has an almost cafe-bar type feel. Relaxed and chatty atmosphere, excellent range of York ales. Great place for a break mid-shopping or on an evening tour around the better alehouses of York.
|
Nice little place, owned by York Brewery hence with their very good beer. Stops serving food at 4pm, a little curious, but there probably isn't enough space for later custom...
|
A quiet and relaxing boozer serving a good selection of real ales.No frills and none the worse for that, well worth a visit.
|
Great little pub this one. A fine selection of ales, relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. One of York's little gems.
|
We managed to do 13 boozers during a two days pub crawl in York. The Last Drop Inn was visited early on a Monday. Very quite at that time of the day. An attentive barman made us feel welcome, and we drank half pints of four different ales from York Brewery. The Last Drop Bitter was a decent stout with taste of burnt malt and coffee. The Guzzler should also be mentioned because of the ale's hoppy bitterness. Great ales at a comfortable pub with central location. A perfect start on our pubwalk in York.
|
I know I can dress a little iffy at times but felt overdressed when in this little corner of York.
Not worth a visit for the warm over priced beer but wort it just to see all the wierdos who sip their half pints.
|
A quiet and relaxing Sunday afternoon sort of pub. Light and airy. Very pleasant. The York Brewery beers are always very good.
|
A very nice pub with a variety of York Brewery choices (e.g., Centurians Ghost, Stonewall, Yorkshire Terrier, etc). as well as a few guest ales. The staff was very helpful and friendly and better yet, the pub does not allow large party groups in the evening b/c it simply cannot provide the space- a definite plus. Outside seating is available and the crowd there was always very pleasant and talkative. Lastly, it's in the center of York so you can have a pint (or 5) then easily head down the road to your next location! I believe that they will be having a Beer Festival in August as well. Too bad I'll miss that.
|
A nice little place, relatively new, without being characterless inside. They do stock their own beers (Yor Brewery) but also have a guest ale or two, and choice of bottled beers. Very well located in town, and can be short on seating on afternoons / evenings, although I agree with what Simon said, on lunch times it is usually quiet.
A very nice place to call in for a relaxed, quiet, beer.
|
didn`t enjoy the beer here,its well situated & I`m very enthusiastic normally re smaller brew pubs,but this appeared to be more of a stop for a quick sit down pub for the local shoppers.
|
Love this pub - visit everytime I am in the town. Very chilled out, quiet but with atmosphere. Food is lovely, and very good value - esp. the sunday lunch!

have called in here on my last three annual visits to york who is the old guy who sits at the bar holding court? i think he may be a retired publican but he has held me enthralled with his opinions on everything under the sun while "she" visits the shambles

Pleasant quiet pub in the centre of town. Small. Live music sometimes, but no other music. Limited choice of beers (compared to other York pubs which are known for their wide ranges, anyhow). Nice to sit down for a quiet chat over a beer, since you can usually hear yourself talking.

Back to basics boozer (no fruit machines, music, pool tables etc.) owned by York Brewery. Given that it's slap bang in the middle of the city centre it doesn't get nearly as crowded as you expect - I've seen it pretty much dead on some lunchtimes.
Sadly, the range of beers is pretty much limited to York Brewery's output, which is nice if you like it, but not so good if you don't (I don't). Supposedly does decent food, but I've never tried it.
