Went yesterday during the day had a few drinks and really enjoyed the bar and atmosphere the music was excellent. Bar has loads of memorabilia for indie lovers . I must stress I did not eat here so can only rate experience of drinks. I really enjoyed myself here and would come back again.

Can’t come to York without visiting Stone Roses Bar! 🎶 It’s had an update since my last visit and the new décor looks brilliant. The air-conditioning was a lifesaver, the drinks were spot on, and the music – as always – was incredible. Love this place, such a vibe every time.

Great atmosphere, but a bit pricey compared to other bars.
