Eating in York

[littlegreenfairy]

I'm off to York for a day out on Saturday and need somewhere to lunch. Nothing too pricey but not crap either. Any recommendations?

Just keeping my fingers crossed for sun now!

Have a look on www.bbc.co.uk/northyorkshire/greedypig/food/york.shtml

May be of some help
Though not looking good for the weather!

For what you need Cafe Concerto on High Petergate will do the job nicely. The staff are friendly and the food is very god.

toto's oppo the barbican do really great food and their service is fantastic..very good lunchtime deals on too

...it's about 10 minutes walk from the city centre though so might be too far for you?

Another vote for Toto's, failing that there is always Oscars in Swinegate..

I'm up for a bit of a trot this weekend. The plan is go go exploring and get out of Sheffield for a bit, but judging by the weather it'll probably end up as a shopping and munching trip.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Also, do any of you know of somewhere where I can get a present for a bridesmaid (she's 24)? I'm looking for something a bit different and maybe house related seeing as she's just bought a place. I expect I'll stumble across somewhere but forwarned if forearmed and all that

Oscarrs is great, theres a brilliant greek called mana in the little square off the main banking street (forget the name)

there's a brilliant furniture/housey/arty tat store adjacent to the slug & lettuce bar...can't for the life of me remember the name but it has loads of interesting bits & pieces and things like sofas, paintings, decorations, hand made cards, ornamental thingies...

the tasing room is good - in a courtyard between ye old starre and the minster.

Great pizza express too at the end of Lendal by the bridge. Overlooks the river (not surprisingly!)
