Museum in Leeds

“Absolutely beautiful food, we ate everything. Could not fault a thing, the staff are really nice and friendly. My daughters and me had a lovely time.”

“Gorgeous little coffee shop right near the Shambles Market, and the perfect place to escape a cold York afternoon and warm yourself with a hot beverage. The Bailey's hot chocolate really hit the spot, and my partner really enjoyed his bacon and brie toastie. The vibe is cosy and perfect for parties of 2, but seating is limited at lunchtime, especially for parties any larger than 4. Many parties of 3 or more were getting turned away or split over multiple tables.”

“We are losers but if this helps…….. We love you Tom, you’ve done such a brilliant job of your pub and we couldn’t be prouder xxxx”

“Just had a meal here. Food was excellent,maybe the best we have had on our visit to York.I had the homemade steak&ale pie and my wife lasagne.Plenty to eat on the plate. Staff friendly and cheerful. Might go back tomorrow evening. Would recommend to all.”

“We always call here before watching Featherstone Rovers. Away fans are welcome to enjoy a pint or two as well!”

“Incredible place, like stepping back in time. Beautiful tiled walls and ceilings, stunning architecture. Open fire, different saloons to sit in, it's like drinking in the year 1850, it's amazing”

“Great beer. Cozy pub. Had the place to ourselves was amazing.”

“We stayed at Wakefield Lime Lodge for a work trip and it was a great little hotel. Very clean, great rates, and excellent service. A special mention to Georgina on reception — really friendly and informative, and made us feel very welcome. If we’re ever in the area again, we’ll definitely stay here without hesitation. Highly recommended.”

“The Milner is still upto a great standard. Staff are excelent. We were in a front facing superior room. With fantastic views of the Minster. We had a meal last night which was cooked perfectly and the breakfast this morning had a great selection and good quality. We will definely be visiting next Christmas as it is idealy situated for York city centre. Very dog friendly hotel”

“My boyfriend and I came here for a few drinks after travelling 4 hours. We couldn't have asked for a better place! Absolutely wonderful pub, couldn't fault the place whatsoever. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff and very clean. Will definitely be coming back!”

“This is our own experience with this business, and we know different clients will have different experiences — but we always leave reviews based on the service we received when we ordered or visited. Review for: Moxy York – Black Horse Lane, York First Impressions
Moxy York immediately stood out with its fun, urban, and modern vibe. The downstairs area is full of character, decorated with eye-catching urban art, hanging pod chairs, plenty of selfie spots, and even a photobooth complete with dress-up hats and caps. The luggage carts by the entrance were incredibly helpful when we arrived with multiple suitcases. The overall first impression was stylish, energetic, and welcoming. Cleanliness & Safety Concerns
The hotel was clean throughout — from the reception area to the lifts and guest rooms. The lifts are secure and won’t operate until you scan your room key, which we appreciated as an added safety feature. CCTV inside the lifts added an extra layer of reassurance. The bathrooms, both in the public areas and our room, were spotless, and the baby-changing facilities downstairs were spacious with a wide sliding door that easily accommodates a pram. Food Quality
Breakfast was excellent, with plenty of hot and cold options, good coffee, cereals, pastries, fresh fruit, and a variety of juices. Gluten-free options were clearly available, and we loved the sign that mentioned vegetarian sausages cooked to order—just ask a staff member. Everything was well stocked and fresh. The bar also served well-priced soft drinks, and we appreciated the free pints of cold ice water when requested. Ambience & Surroundings
The ambience at Moxy York is playful and modern, with thoughtful design details such as bright pink filler used deliberately to highlight cracks in the concrete floor—turning something ordinary into part of the décor. There’s a beer garden, a pool table, books, board games, magazines like Empire, and even a free retro Street Fighter arcade machine. Everywhere you look, there’s something creative or fun. The hotel feels lively yet relaxing, perfect for groups, couples, families, and students alike. Service & Atmosphere
Every member of staff we interacted with was polite, friendly, and eager to help. The front-desk team created such a welcoming environment. We loved the gesture of a free cocktail or mocktail each on arrival. They even had special offers like a 20% student discount and a free mimosa for graduates on the day we visited. Dog owners will appreciate the custom stand at reception with water bowls for both large and small dogs. Small touches like free cucumber water at the bar and umbrellas available to rent added to the sense that Moxy pays attention to guest comfort. Facilities
The hotel offers lots of thoughtful amenities: A well-equipped workout room directly opposite the lifts Fast, clean lifts with fun selfie-style Instagram templates inside Monthly event notices and clear signposting throughout the hotel A first-floor ironing room accessible with your room key Modern, comfortable guest rooms with sensor lights under the bed (perfect for late-night bathroom trips), air conditioning, USB ports, a European plug socket, a wing-backed chair, a kettle with tea/coffee and Biscoff biscuits, and secure locking feature. Bathroom amenities including shampoo, conditioner, hand wash, and body wash The room was quiet with no banging or noise from other floors, leading to a very peaceful night’s sleep — something not all hotels manage successfully. Although there is no on-site car park, there is a Q-Park nearby and several other parking options within walking distance via parking apps. Signing up for Marriott Bonvoy is worthwhile too, as it makes Wi-Fi sign-in quicker and lets you collect points. Overall
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this hotel and look forward to staying at The Moxy in York again on our next visit. I hope this honest review helps others make an informed decision.”

“Such a lovely cafe, dog friendly, the staff were so kind and welcoming, the holiday park is beautiful, a great place to eat :)”

“Amazing place to stay ✨️ Fantastic welcome and information at check-in. Room was spotless and the self-catering facilities are impressive. Lovely bright comfortable shared space with lovely areas to sit and eat, indoors and outside. We will definitely be back! A huge thank you for running such a lovely safe space for families who need to self-catering. Location was perfect too.”

“Nice size park for taking our little dog for a walk. Plenty of seats and the park is well cared for, the garden areas always look nice and the kids play area is currently being updated.”

“Firstly these guys were absolutely awesome!! From the moment we entered the restaurant we were made to feel special! Natalie, Simon, Lokesh and the team are a credit to Nando’s. They demonstrated customer service and appreciation the highest level! We will be back for food again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Looking for a specific style of shoes, tried all over York & finally found them here. Assistant was very helpful to me whilst having to try to serve another customer who wouldn't get off her phone for the whole time I was in the shop. Very happy with my shoes & the service.”

“Visited the café for lunch while looking around the gallery, and it was so good we returned for breakfast a few days later. Food was absolutely delicious - high quality, flavoursome ingredients and service with a smile.”

“Exceptional Sunday roast, in fact the best pub Sunday roast I’ve ever had”

“I have been here twice this year, both times the food was excellent and the staff were lovely. The restaurant itself is nice and has a great view of the river. What more can you ask for? As well as this I am lactose intolerant which can cause problems when eating out, however at this restaurant they have an entire vegan menu and they will adapt pizzas to make them lactose free. The pizza dough recipe here does not contain milk. The staff here take intolerances seriously and are very helpful when you have questions. In my experience, some restaurants act inconvenienced or do not understand when you have a dietary requirement, but I can eat at this restaurant with confidence as I know that the food will not upset my stomach whatsoever which is rare as I have a stomach condition on top of lactose intolerance. They have amazing vegan garlic bread, even my partner was impressed with it. The vegan cheese that they use is really good too, unlike most places. This is our go-to restaurant now in York and I highly recommend it.”

“Cheap hotel that is in a convenient location. The room was a good size and everything was clean and as expected. Above average breakfast served at the brewers fayre next door.”

“Fantastic landlady. Personality is out of this world. Very welcoming. Breakfast is good full English with cereal and fruit juice if wanted. Good clean rooms. Tea and coffee supplied.”

“Clean, comfortable and spacious room. Well supplied with tea, coffee and milk and also shower gels shampoos and conditioner in the bathroom. We arrived slightly before the official check-in time, but we were quickly shown to our room without any issues. Just a 20 minute walk to the racecourse in one direction and a 15 minute walk to central York the other way (with some nice, independent suburban shops to browse in on the way). Good value for money. No complaints.”

“Canny little place to stay, self contained/ self catering accommodation, has everything you need. Really cheap considering there is cooker, washer/ dryer, microwave, fridge, tv,WiFi and more and obviously bed, wardrobe etc and your bathroom. Staff and owner are extremely pleasant and helpful and the owner will go out of his way to accommodate you. Self check in, with info messaged to you on the day nearer the time of check in. It's a real easy process. City centre is only a few minutes drive or an easy short bus/ taxi ride. I've stayed here a few times and will continue to book here when I'm in Leeds.”

“Great place to stay stunning views and walks I enjoyed watching the cricket The only thing that could improve are the facilities i don’t think there are enough for the amount of pitches but don’t let that put you off it is 100% worth staying here”

“Lovely clean room. Excellent service. Perfect budget accommodation.”

“Great hosts. Bottled real ales. Great pool table. New owners which are committed to making this a viable and vibrant place to be.”

“Best fish and chips ever tasted perfect taste and highly recommend”

“Nice food! Made an order for collection since I live 15 min drive away. Order OK chicken and it was tasty, could of done with a bit more sauce but other than that really nice. Friendly staff with nice and warm food.”

“Great service as ever. Sarah H is always so professional and caring. I saw this at first hand with how wonderfully she dealt with a child with ASD in the restaurant, just wonderful. Other staff were great as well. Location is a little noisy but hey you can't have everything for the price!!.”

“Stayed for two nights and was not disappointed. The room was large and spacious with a king sized sleigh bed (so anyone over six feet tall can comfortably stretch out) and bathroom with roll-top bath and period fixtures and fittings. There were also high ceilings due to the era this property is from and the decor has been kept pretty much in keeping with that time period so it has a nice atmosphere. The breakfast was excellent, extremely tasty and well presented, the service was first rate and the staff extremely helpful and friendly. I'd definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.”
