Tour Groups
Our Loft (the room with the ghost) can seat up to 55 people and has been used by multiple international tour groups visiting York over the years.
We know it can be stressful with a large group, so our staff are especially trained in taking orders for large groups – so it’s not essential to pre-order!
Available 7 Days a week – we a happy to open the restaurant on Monday or Tuesday (when we are normally closed) for parties of 25 or more. Overall we can accommodate about 117.
GHOST TALKS
Given our resident ghost – an additional option used by some groups is the bring in one of York’s “ghost walk” hosts to tell some tales alongside the meal and perhaps save you the walk!
