14:00 Steady trade. We added to the Landlord's knowledge by telling him why there was a Number 4 on one of the door frames. It had puzzled him for some time.

Evening visit just as a folk quartet started playing Irish, Russian Gipsy and Scottish with variously accordion, penny whistle, hand drums, flute and guitar.

13:00 Fairly busy. Very pubby feel as only food is doorstep sandwiches so not heaving with diners like most other central York pubs. Sandwiches were excellent by the way.

As seems to be the norm with this brewery, a rather smokey flavour with some hoppiness and a rather thin character. My score 14/20.
The pub is found in York, North Yorkshire, YO1 7LS.
Old pub in the historic centre of York in Goodramgate. The bar is at the front of the pub and there is a small room to the rear and a small outside back yard. Guest beers now available here along with standard regional brews. 5 handpumps on the bar counter.
We have visited this pub 5 times, seen 14 different beers and tried 5 of them.
