Stunning multi roomed pub with wood panelling, stonework and wooden floors. “Dressed” elegantly with dark red curtains, lots of brass, gleaming glass and guilted pictures.

20:00 Not on the plan but door control meant it was racegoer free so went in for something to eat. A haven of peace.

Evening. I had been sent from the City centre via the Millennium Bridge by a helpful local person. With that feet aching detour lucky my rendezvous partners were still in residence. The open fire was welcoming but I was still steamin' from my route march.

19:15 A rare outing with Philip Pirrip and a mutual friend. A pub I hadn't visited for years and had forgotten how good it is. Superb little altered 1930s interior. Very welcoming staff. Pub was busy, mainly diners.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Black Sheep - Reaper | 4.10 | | A sample provided by the barman without being asked. A rye beer with a good back taste. |
| Acorn - Barnsley Bitter | 3.80 | | Bit on the malty side |
| Wickwar - Gold | 4.50 | | Pretty standard golden ale |
| Black Sheep - Best Bitter | 3.80 | Not Tried |

The pub is found in York, North Yorkshire, YO10 4AB.
On Fishergate, a road going south out of the City centre. An eye pleasing building rebuilt in 1935 in Tudor style for Tadcaster Tower Brewery. Built then with 3 rooms but the 2 on the right were subsequently combined. Rear river facing terrace. 8 handpumps, 4 in each bar with duplicated pump clips showing the full offering. Re-opened in late July 2016 after 7 months closure following serious Boxing Day flood damage.
We have visited this pub 4 times, seen 8 different beers and tried 5 of them.
