The bar food, whilst nothing exceptional, is perfectly acceptable Tapas style but a bit pricey. Upstairs in the restaurant the very helpful staff helped me with my choice of ribs in sauce. I must have been misheard as they brought me half a pig on a plate. Tasty enough but a bit too plastic as if it had come out of a jar. Major downside to this place is the hike to the toilets. Whilst it is probably only four storeys up it does feel like forever especially when one is trying to stomach the cost of the cocktail that is causing the need to empty your bladder in the first place.

(did not use toilets) restaurant area has a nice cosy feel to it anyway thats, that boring info bit over with, well the meal came to just over £60.00 but we did have a starter of olives, 2 ribeye steaks (we ordered 8oz, but i think the steaks we got where bigger) steaks came with a selection of potatoes, mash chipped etc, an extra side order of coleslaw and 2 bottles of the house white wine was very drinkable hence 2nd bottle, but at £12.50 i think its a dam good price per bottle of wine, in a york restaurant! as most places charge around £15 per bottle of house wine after the last time we went out an had shoe leather on a plate at another restaurant, i was wary of asking for the steak, but the menu looked so tempting an i did not think the price of the steaks were that bad? with the seasoning rubs or sauces for an extra small charge an was i happy we ordered the steak! i could not fault anything on the plate! the meat was juicy an so tender, not only that, it tasted of beef. i know thats a silly thing to put, but i do find when i order steaks they can be well cooked, tender etc but the meat is bland tasting? this was far from being bland and it was cooked to perfection! all i ask when i order steak, the chef cooks better then me, an he did! and steak is always the easiest thing to get wrong, if the meats not right, over or under cooked etc i'd have thrown a small hissy fit! to me the whole point of eating out is to let someone else cook for me, and as i am paying, they should cook better then me! so its a shame its such a quiet restaurant, as the quality of the food, and service is fantastic! this place needs to be tried out more! so if you read this review an fancy a meal out, give this place a try. don't be put off by the stairs or how quiet it looks on a night, at lunch times when i've walked by they looked pretty busy, as they had outside seating. they have a nice varied menu with sizzling fajitas, swordfish steaks, daily specials etc and i will most definately be back to try the other items on the menu!

It's a cute and cozy place for weekend breakfast. Will's hair appointment is in Leeds once a month…read moreand this place has been the breakfast place to me for sit in having a cup of coffee while browsing the newspaper. It's a chain so everything is pretty standard except for fast service and efficient table cleaning. It makes this place a very well maintained environment. The hot breakfast rolls are fresh most time and the pastries are properly baked to perfection. The crispy textures shows its been in the right temperature for just enough time. I also love their Korean BBQ Pork quinoa rice pot. The tropical green tea is my favourite drink. Strong good quality green tea leaves with a taste of tropical fruit. Sometimes, we go for the coffee which seems have less bitterness. Some cold drinks in the fridge and the fruit pot are great quality as well just like what Pret a Manger offers. It's located in the very centre of the shopping area and it's definitely a lovely place to grab a drink or you can come in when it's quiet for a relaxing time.

I avoid this bar like the plague on nights out as it's usually packed as are most of the bars on Greek Street so it was nice to be able to see the 'warts and all' side of things during the quieter week! There was probably around 10/15 people in catching that after work well needed drink and the barman gave a cheery hello. 60p for a soda & lime. The bar area was very clean and has a good selection of draught & bottled beers as well as a lengthy cocktail menu. The decor is quite modern with a mix of carpet and wooden flooring and it's a massive trek downstairs and along the corridor to the loo's! We took a good browse of the food menu and I was surprised by it's diversity for a bar. I chose the blackened chicken and my friend the prime beef burger. We ate in the bar area so orders have to be placed at the bar- I think there is a designated 'eating' area towards the back where I would assume you get the table service. Anyway, our cutlery was brought out followed shortly after by our food. The chicken was a lovely full breast sat on sauteed potatoes with an avocado salsa and sour creme. The burger was served on a wood platter with a generous portion of fries and we also had a side of onion rings. The chicken was juicy, nicely seasoned and the salsa complimented in very nicely. The potatoes were also spot on. All I got to hear about the burger was that it was 'well nice'! It was topped with some nice salad and actual gherkins! The onion rings were very tasty and we wasted no time in polishing all the food off. For a £17.30 bill (including a pint) I would definitely go back to sample some of the other offerings here.

It was a busy Friday night and a bunch of us arrived on Greek Street really ready to just, well, sit and chat candidly about the week's goings on. Not ready for the aural blast that battered away at us when we made our way, past the shirts and skirts and perfumery, to get to the bar at Henry's. As it was clear we'd picked the wrong venue for a natter I grabbed us a half each, yes I'm totally British and would have felt far too rude to simply walk back out again, so I got a swift round in and we sat at the back where there were plenty of empty tables. Man, the weekend drinks pack a punch on the wallet! Though I'm told on good authority that Henry's is awesomely cheap during the week, so I fully intend to update this review and report back on that one! The bar is huge and allows for large groups to partake of the ambiance, which on a weekend is seriously set to cocktails and a bit of light grinding. Although the place was packed with a reasonably rowdy lot I certainly think the crowd here are a darn sight more amenable than across the city. It is Greek Street, after all. Nevertheless, the venue simply isn't to my taste on the weekend nights. As I mentioned, I'm much more of a conversation-based drinker and feel far more at home in a cosy pub, or live gig event. That said, I must be in a minority here as everyone and their dog were having a blast here when we popped in. Enjoy, if you love cocktails, dancing and a big crowd!

The last time I went to this place, it was a rather dilapidated traditional pub - how things have changed. The place apparently underwent a huge refurbishment a while back, and is now a rather classy gastropub-cum-restaurant boasting a mostly European restaurant. There are sharing platters available including a fine antipasti selection, while the main courses range from pastas to salads to steaks to spit-roast chicken dishes. I had the chorizo, jalapeno and salami pizza, and it went down an absolute treat. Aside from the food, the White Hart has a bar area where you can relax after your meal with the weary countryside travellers and a wide selection of drinks. The atmosphere and decor were both perfect too, which led me to the conclusion that this place is definitely worth the journey.

A bit of a strangle layout, with an empty bar downstairs and the restaurant up a few flights of stairs, it turned out to be a good night! The menu is quite large but we went for some sharing plates - nachos, crudites with hummus and tapenade, and baked camembert with bread. We misjudged the portion size somewhat, leaving us with an extra table to hold the food, but managed to get through the majority of it... Crudites were simple, and for circa £10, potentially slightly overpriced. However, it was nice to have the option of some simple vegetables (great when you're eating with a vegetarian!) The nachos were fairly simple, topped with all the usual suspects, but the camembert with the stand out, as cheese usually is; I wholly recommend ordering the crudites and the cheese as it forms another dipping option. Washed down with plenty of wine, the food was good and service super friendly. The location made me feel slightly awkward - but perhaps that's my naivety at not knowing that it's known to be 'hidden'!
