| This pub announces itself thus:- “The Golden Fleece is York's Most Haunted pub, thus one of the England's most haunted sites. Visit the Oldest Inn in York and you can be sure of a friendly atmosphere, quiet surroundings and traditional services.” Is it because the ghosts that haunt this establishment are violent that the services of a “bouncer” are required on the door? I declined to enter and to my utter delight, discovered The Blue Bell just around the corner. No visit, no score. 5thearlofwimbourne - 22 Oct 2011 13:51 |
| Son of TheBeerMonster was getting married the following day in North Yorkshire. So I stayed in York. The "must visit" pub was the Golden Fleece. As featured in "Most Haunted". The bar is delightfully dark and atmospheric. The sloping floor is slightly disorientating, but added to the air of mystery and uncertainty. We were lucky to bag a window seat to enjoy a great pint of "Old Peculier" - a beer I'd enjoyed many years ago in "Nellies" in Beverley. Then, we imagined Yvette Fielding and her team hunting down ghosts in the gloomy bar. A grand pub, not pandering too much to the tourists in terms of slickness, that provides good beer, great atmosphere, but unfortunately no ghosts that I could find. Well worth a visit.

| Called in here and thought it was over occupied by Nikon carrying tourists. The prices confirmed this with a pint of bitter and pint of Strongbow shandy costing nearly £7.00. Very dark and dingy in the front bar and very evident that the under-stressed barman could not clear the plates and empty glasses from the tables. It was quite amusing to hear the two numpties stood at the bar arguing with the barman that the Guinness did not taste right. TalbotHill - 22 Jul 2011 19:03 |
