Great 'Haunted ' old pub . Portions are massive and plenty of hidden spaces to sit down. The sausage and mash in a giant Yorkie pudding is a stomach buster!

Roxie Fog

Food is brilliant although i only had the steak and ale pie .its a meat-arians dream and the old style of the place is a great atmosphere

Brooke Louise

Ancient higgledy piggledy pub , nothing exciting on the booze front but thoughtful vegan vegetarian and gluten-free options for ya'll. Cute function room upstairs. Great staff .

Ricardo Seixas

Traditional crooked pub ! Most tables are for dinning, if you want to experience the pub , go later.

Hidden right out the back of the pub is a great and large decked area, lots of seating and even covered pagoda areas, in case the sun doesn't last....

Nicole Riley

My friends and I were scolded by the manager as we were handed our food for sitting and ordering food in the front end of the pub . Apps were served with meal and tried clearing before we were finished

A cosy old pub steeped in history and supposedly haunted . The beer is great and the food portions are good value but Gentleman, avoid the toilets , they are rancid.

Stu Hodgkiss

I'm not a fussy eater but I wouldn't recommend the pie & mash , it took nearly an hour to arrive and wasn't at all nice! On a positive note family next to me had fish and chips which looked amazing!

Sarah Gillott

The chilli is awesome and you get a decent amount of salad with it. Kids food portions are huge! Beer=fab.

Carl Griffin

Apparently the most haunted pub in York. Great real ale .

Lief Thompson

Legend says that the squeaky front door calls to the spirits still walking the earth... at least with amount of squeak, it seems that way. ????

Daniel da Rocha

Delicious Yorkshire pudding , but do take the name Giant seriously. Enough for 2 people easily.

Stéphanie Colin

Great food and live music ! Portions are huge so be hungry when you come !!

Ksenia

Peculiar authentic place. If visiting York, you should drop by. Live music at times

Cracking burger - great taste and sturdy bun so it doesn't fall apart in your hands.

Unless you have a huge appetite, share the fish and chips between 2

Ghost tours with some bloke from Most Haunted TV are pretty regular.
