| We called in last Thursday and found a well populated pub that wasn't too noisy. The T Taylors was very good. We tried the food and can say that my fish and chips was excellent, a good and tasty portion, the batter was particularly good. The wife's gammon and egg was also of the same standard. We can't say what the pub's like at the weekend but during the week it's fine. 8100bob - 1 Mar 2009 16:28 |
| Someone, somewhere awarded this best pub status in York, 2007/2008. OK, I'll take their word for it and conclude that there was something lacking on my part. But a Saturday afternoon visit with a less than on form Tim Taylors, two or three milimetres from the brim despite the head (this was a halfpint), some extremely rowdy and attention seeking clientele adding to a general ambience of a typically overated city centre bar, sent me skulking off wondering what all the fuss was about. Can't see meself returning somehow. ILooklikeme - 27 Jan 2009 18:26 |
| Late review from November when we called in to see what real ales were on. Enjoyed a Cairngorm and Batemans here. gillhalfpint - 17 Jan 2009 19:41 |
| I always visited this pub when I was in York especially for the football on the 'big' screen and it was always busy. Sadly no more the pub seems to have changed and the large screen tv appears to have gone. It appears to be more towards serving meals than accomodating the drinking sports fans. It was very quiet when I was in and on asking the bar person 'what happened' they just smiled and said it was new management policy. A good pub spoiled. bddeazeley - 21 Oct 2008 13:40 |
| An interesting pub indeed with 3 parts to it including outdoor seating. Interesting history of the place as well including a peice of an old Roman column that was used to build it way back when! Several real ales on including a Bateman's brand. mrdruse - 16 Oct 2008 01:57 |
