   Lovely traditional pub filled mainly with locals. Always a few people in which makes it more fun and the decor and atmosphere are great. About £5 per pint which is amazing in York.

   If you like good beer then there aren't many better places in York there is a great selection of cask and keg! Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable if you're unsure what to try. Lovely little beer garden out the back and just far enough away from the city center it's not a tourist trap.

   This is one of my favourite York pubs. Been here a few times but it is a few minutes walk out of the city walls. A CAMRA Good Beer Guide regular. Madge sat us down in a lovely rear lounge, it is Heritage pub. Well worth visiting. There is a rear beer garden.

   Another great pub in the neighborhood, a perfect pairing with The Slip Inn for a few pints (or more). Met the owner, great guy. This is a properly rustic pub that fits the area so well. Was told this is the “South Bank” and it was my favorite part of York. Anyway, an extensive selection of draft and cask. Had a great pint of Landlord. Some quality locals/regulars in the pub towards the end of the night. A lot of fun here. Stories for life.

   Wonderful 'proper' pub on the edge of the city centre in York. Great interior and an excellent range of well kept beers. The Swan is a free house, as is the Slip round the corner, another lovely pub. I've visited a few times in the past and will be going to York again in a fortnight for a small pub crawl and this will certainly be one of the places I will visit. Sadly more and more pubs are not opening until 2:00 or 4:00, or worse still are closing down. We need to support them or we will lose an important element of our English heritage. Avoid the big national pub chains and support your traditional old pubs.

   A great friendly local that is near the station and the city centre. When you walk into The Swan it is like stepping back in time with the red cushioned seats and stools and the separate bars. A definite visit in York if you like a pub with character and history.

   Lovely good old fashioned pub with a bar and a parlour. Wide range of gins (my thing) and other spirits to choose from. Also a good range of real ales to choose from (hubbies thing) Clean and comfy and welcoming is how I'd describe this place. Great for all ages. Has a lovely beer garden, white washed walls planted up. Would recommend to anyone for a drink alone or with friends. Dog friendly.

   Well preserved pub with central serving area and rooms off. One of the best pubs in York, should not be missed.
