Food & Drink in York

The Perky Peacock Coffee Shop

  • Lendal Bridge, York

York has many cosy cafes, but if you want a taste of REAL YORK, you should have breakfast / coffee and cake in this place. It's part of the York wall, where it meets Lendal bridge. Cool, huh!

Côte Brasserie

    Amaxing French cafe. I went here for breakfast. Beautiful selection. I had smoked salmon scrambled egg with toast. Was perfect

    Patisserie Valeria

    • 5 Feasegate, York, YO1 8SH

    Visitors will appreciate the decor of this place. The cakes match the quality of the interior. I was lucky enough to be there when they had a scone offer - My friend and I took FULL advantage and ate FOUR!

    • 12 High Ousegate, York, YO1 8RZ

    If your tongue is asking for fried chicken, but you don't want a cheap high-street take-away, then treat yourself to a NANDO's. I had a flame-grilled chicken, hot and spicy with chips and rice. Worth the extra money.

    The Viceroy of India

    • Monkgate, York, YO31 7PF

    The Viceroy of India

    • Monkgate, York, YO31 7PF

    I used to live in York. Many fine Indian restaurants, but this is the one I visit whenever I go back, especially if I am not alone. The guys of Viceroy have never let me down.

    Bettys Tea Rooms

    • 6-8 St. Helen's Square, YO1 8QP

    Bettys Tea Rooms

    • 6-8 St. Helen's Square, YO1 8QP

    Ever wondered why people are queuing outside the cafe in central York? Well, join the queue and while you wait outside, use your phone to do your research. Bettys is a must-see/EAT visit for most tourists, hungry for the cute 'Tea for Two' experience.

    Milk Shack

    • 14 Church Street, York, YO1 8BE

    Milk Shack

    • 14 Church Street, York, YO1 8BE

    Every time I am in York, I always treat myself to a Milk Shake from these guys. Whatever your favourite chocolate or sweet, it's probably here. They also have daily specials at a slightly cheaper price. Choose any, you'll be happy.
