Little ones should be in their beds not watching their parents drinking antics. Have you parents no shame? keeping tired bairns up when clearly they need there beds. Shame on you. Also you can reserve seats on your chosen day/time before you go and you can drink in your preferred seating area (not eat, just drink), you can have the people that are still sat there first removed by the manager. So make sure you book in advance and turn up when you want to claim and turf out people that were there first Seems like the exit of Sheila hasn't improved much. And the meals still the usual rubbish of a 2 thirds chips portion, 2 teaspoons of garden peas and if your lucky something that looks but not tastes like a type of meat/fish

We should get to call all their male bar staff Basil, the female, Sybil and Terry for those workers who don't identify with these genders. I noted that all the male staff wore thin, cheap shirts and trousers so worn out they were shiny. They had a darn good range of beers and darn decent porter mind. At just £15.80 for three pints and a large glass of wine they offered great value for money. That brings 5 stars and allows us to tolerate the staff. The place was packed so the recipe is working for the owner. They are along the riverside with outside cheap seating, right beside the Ouse river and geese strolled around as we sat and chatted in warm sunshine. If they did actual food I didn't notice. As we walked inside to the bar to order our first drinks we encountered staff challenging a chap of much advanced years, dressed like a drab Quentin Crisp, who attempted to use his mobile phone in the pub. I later spotted him outside, drink in one hand and mobile phone against his ear, he was chatting, leaning against the wall trying unsuccessfully to look nonchalant. They describe themselves as a 'digital detox pub'. The chief rule is no mobile phones as they want customers to talk to each other. How novel, quirky and eccentric in the 21st century. No swearing and no music either. Them rules are strictly enforced and you will be evicted if them rules ain't followed promptly. If I'm ever in York again I'll be sure to return for the stout and the insults.

The pub used to stable racehorses, and is directly opposite the stables of York Racecourse. The interior is styled as a country pub, although Dringhouses is actually a suburb of York, these days, and it felt more suburban than villagey in atmosphere. There's lots of exposed wood and brick fireplaces, and patterned carpet. All very traditional. It's deceptively large - as you wander, more areas seem to open out in front of you, so we had no trouble finding a seat. They serve food, and a lot of other customers were eating here. We didn't sample it, but it looked good, and it arrived quickly. They serve three real ales (Timothy Taylor, Black Sheep and their own brew, which was a very pleasant hoppy bitter - a bit like IPA), which were well kept, and the staff topped my pint up without asking - always a good thing. One of my friends wanted a Campari and lemonade, though, and they didn't sell that, nor her second choice of a Bacardi Breezer. The emphasis seemed to be on beer and wine instead, and she made do with a G&T. Staff seemed friendly and, despite being very busy, they seemed to cope efficiently with the crowd. I'd happily adopt it as my local if I lived in the area.

Inside the decor is very nice, with an open fire place which is used in winter. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful.
