Review:
Situated just off Lendal Bridge The Maltings may seem a little hemmed in by the surrounding modern buildings but inside your whisked a world away back to a great classic pub atmosphere, with beautifully lived in surroundings decorated with quaint old brewery signage and even an quirky bar front made from doors. With their extension nearly doubling the size of pub you’d be worried that it wouldn’t retain its friendly character but it has been undertaken with such attention to detail it’s as if it simply grew out of the old, retaining features such the open fire turning it into a double sided affair, bringing the ceiling lined with old doors through and really improving an already great bar with the much needed extra space. The extension room feels like a peaceful conservatory reaching out onto a new decked patio area that although small is perfectly formed with good awning coverage and lovely views of Lendal Bridge, the Minster and the City beyond. They also have an extensive range of beers, all which change frequently and are well priced. It’s definitely a grown-up’s pub, as the sign declares on the front door, so no music, kids or rowdiness here, which means that if you’re after a relaxing pint this is place to be. It is without a doubt one of our favourite pubs in York, an essential visit required!
