  • Historic Interior

Arguably the oldest inn in York, this very famous pub is popular with both tourists and residents. It comprises a large main bar, three separate rooms and no fewer than three outdoor beer terraces – a veritable oasis down an alley behind a busy shopping street. Look out for the gallows sign which spans Stonegate. Thursday is open mic night and there are occasional Sunday afternoon acoustic sessions. Wide range of guest beers including some from local micros.

As a result of an agreement between CAMRA and Greene King, organised by CAMRA's membership team, this managed pub is one of over 500 pubs where Greene King have agreed to offer a discount to members with the offer of 10% off real ales

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: II

A unique outstanding feature of this much-altered old inn complex is its former bar-screen, proclaiming 'Brett Bros' in decorative leaded glass. This probably dates from an 1890s refurbishment by the eponymous local brewer-owners and is likely to be a product of the nearby workshops of J W Knowles & Co, renowned craft glaziers.
