"Chiquito is a lively, family friendly Mexican chain restaurant. They serve breakfast, available every day until noon. Breakfast items include the Breakfast Sizzler, Breakfast Chimichanga plain tortilla, Mexican eggs benedict and the Breakfast feast."

"Pitcher & Piano is a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion, and their restaurant in York is absolutely gorgeous. They’ve got some of the yummiest brunch dishes around, too – how does a brunch burger or a baked Moroccan breakfast sound to you?. For £28 per person, you get one of their amazing dishes as well as two whole hours of bottomless prosecco, bellinis, mimosas, Aperol spritzes and pints of Amstel, which is a great selection!"

"Pitcher and Piano offer a bottomless brunch, “Welcoming you from day to night with a sophisticated escape suited for every occasion. Whether it’s bubbles over brunch or a relaxed Sunday roast, after work drinks or a night to remember – each of our bars has been carefully crafted to bring you something wonderfully unique.” Pre-bookings only. Available Saturday & Sunday until 2pm."

"The Shambles Kitchen dishes up a few other items (cakes and smoothies, wraps, a daily soup such as chickpea, lentil and harissa), but there is no doubting the main draw: its pulled pork sandwich. Dripping in its own juices and long on flavour, the meat is slow-cooked for 12 hours and served on fat buns with a peppy raw slaw and a choice of sauces – go for the smoked apple. At £5.50 a pop, these are not particularly cheap baps, but it is tasty tackle and you are putting money into a business where, in stark contrast to the many chains which crisscross York, everything is cooked from scratch using local ingredients."

"If a restaurant sells out of everything on the menu most days, you can make a safe bet for the place being either fairly disorganised or fairly popular. Luckily, the latter is true of York’s fabled sandwich shop, Shambles Kitchen. A sandwich you’ll need a wheelbarrow to shift will set you back no more than 7 quid and the ever-changing menu ensures there is something new and tasty each time you swing by."

"Not exactly a hidden treasure but it’s well known for a reason. Whether you’ve got dietary requirements or picky eaters, if you’re in a group where everyone wants something different, then this is a great option. Just remember to wear a jacket."
