| Perfect for a pint to drown your sorrows after losing money at York races. When I popped in recently, the beer range was excellent, the condition of the beer perfect and the service prompt and friendly. nmckenn - 16 Jun 2009 21:29 |
| We planned a few drinks on a Friday afternoon in York and used this site to suss out old favourites and some new pubs. Started in Brigantes, but this was a mistake as we never got any further. Very pleasant although as someone else commented it's not a trad pub. Part of the small Market Town Taverns Group we had unknowingly visited a couple of their other pubs (in Northallerton and Wetherby) and had a good result there too. The food is good, the beer excellent including Daleside Blonde and a good Addlestones cider. Definitely a favourite. StephenE - 16 Jun 2009 17:08 |
| Oh dear. Having recommended this pub I was somewhat embarrassed by the quality of service and the attitude to customers. We ordered food - warning bells should have rung when the barperson considered a request for either bread or chips with mussels to be somewhat outlandish. When the mussels arrived they had clearly decided to audition for the role of raisins at a fancy dress party, having apparently had no contact with the weissbier and garlic sauce that had been so prominently advertised, with an odour all their own. When questioned they were referred to the chef, and then we were reassured that they were "fresh". Putting the customer in the wrong is not a recipe for repeat business, so we left and moved elsewhere. A great shame, because the other food, ambience and beer were up to their usual high standards. meurglys_iv - 13 Apr 2009 14:31 |
| Standing out from the obviousness that marks out most of the rest of The Run, this puts the beer before the brawl. The sensaround of pumpclips from the past on the north wall is something to behold, and everything the current clips were attached to more than passed muster too. Be prepared to have to muscle past the usual Run crew to get there, but well worth it getsit - 21 Mar 2009 20:39 |
| This is indeed more a of a brasserie than a classic York pub, which I think is most welcome when done well - which Brigantes certainly is. Based on two levels, with an 'upstairs' bar level and a lower eating and drinking level. The lower level has some nice booths to slide into, which gives the place a little bit of pub-factor. The range and quality of beer (real ale as well as some continental choices) was excellent, as was the service - the staff seem genuinely proud to be working here. The atmosphere and ambience on a busy evening was relaxed, but with a definite vibe of chatter of enjoyment going on. Didn't sample the food but noted its availability - would give it a try next time I'm there. All in all, a super place and highly recommended for the discerning drinker and pub-goer.
