Offering a large and varied selection of traditionally cooked, locally sourced meat and fish dishes, we pride ourselves on giving our customers a first class, French-inspired dining experience."

"Another restaurant where the answer is in the name, Rustique is all about rustic French food. The idea here is to provide a typical French dining experience with traditionally cooked fish and meat dishes. If you haven't done so already, maybe this is the place to try Escargot for the first time."

"Unfortunately, Thor’s Tipi is very much a seasonal event in York, so you can only really find it during the summer and winter months. However, if you do head to the summer event at The Principal Hotel, you can find a vast array of delicious dishes served by local catering companies such as Hog and Apple and The Shambles Kitchen. In the winter, Thor’s Tipi is usually held in Parliament Street and here you’ll find winter classics such as mulled wine and cider, plus cosy fire pits and sumptuous hot chocolates."
