Guy Fawkes Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Every time we go to York we stop at Guy Fawkes Inn, and we can’t see this stopping in the future. The staff are warm and courteous, the location perfect, the decor rich and luxuriant, the food sublime and the beer gardens delightful. Whether starting the day with a full English or ending the day with a drink and tucked up in a blanket by one of the beer garden heaters, this beautiful place has it all: charm, character, and a hearty recommendation from us for anyone planning on stopping. And the award winning pies, we can’t forget about them…"
