Bill's Restaurant Bar York

Very cosy restaurant in the city centre. We went for Restaurant Week and found it great value for money. The food was really tasty, from starter to dessert, so I think I'd come back even for the regular menu. Maybe for a special treat!

How have I not been here before, it was lovely Relaxed dining at its best. The decor was lovely, mix of old and new, big Chesterfield's, bougie velvet chairs, chandeliers,trunking, glass ceilings, wooden tables, pendant shades. The menu was fab, lots of choice for veggies and meat heads. Full drinks menu, I had a pinot and it was delicious and didn't taste like vinegar! The food was fantastic, couldn't fault it. Service was great too, friendly and polite Would recommend and visit again, and again

What a fabulous restaurant to visit. Fabulous decor throughout, polite professional staff and last but not least, their food is fantastic.. It's the full package. So the tree of us had starters. I had calamari, the others had tuna carpaccio with tacos. We had a side of flat garlic bread and side salads. Crispy, dry calamari that was still tender inside. The tuna was fabulous too, gently seared on the outside as you'd expect. We had cocktails that were nicely made without tonnes of ice. Now the main meals were spot on. Tasty, moist and full of flavour. I had truffle chicken 2 ways with chips, the others had the same with mash. It was amazing food. The price was good for three of us with 2 cocktails each and a bottle of wine. Service charge is added with 3 options which is fair as the service was excellent throughout our meal. Highly recommend this restaurant and we will certainly visit again. Many thanks.

Visited York for the day using their brilliant Park and Ride from the designer retail park. Wife decided we we’re having breakfast at Bill’s. We were there quite early and got seated in no time. Staff were great and the place was clean and room to move about. The Breakfast menu is OK, not much choice. I’d have preferred a Sausage and bacon bun, but chose the Full English. The breakfast came in a decent time, but I thought it was quite disappointing. I asked for my eggs well done, but were runny in the middle. The sausage was hard and dry , bacon covered in oil and there wasn’t much on the plate. Our Grandaughter got pancakes , ordered with no syrup, it came soaked in syrup. The 12% service charge added to the bill is a pet hate of mine. A tip is a tip, a service charge is essentially paying to get your food. I won’t be going back. Expensive for what’s on the plate. Quality of food was great, but not cooked very well. There’s far better in York, the pubs are far better at Breakfasts than this place.

It’s always relaxed and buzzy. Friendly and attentive service. Mains took 30 minutes to arrive though. Oat flat whites were pants send the barista for reeducation! Veggie burgers were excellent (although the fries were overcooked and dry). They were happy accommodating baby and (small) pram.
