    As much as I thought the food was first class I can not believe you get a pie and mash with no veg at all , I may have missed it on menu (I don’t know) but you shouldn’t get pie and mash with no veg whatever the occasion

    Super busy pub with a fantastic atmosphere. We came for the famous pie and it didn’t disappoint. Followed up by the amazing minster light show. Good light in Lovely York.

    We enjoyed a delicious meal at Guy Fawkes Inn last night. The staff were very welcoming and attentive, giving lots of tips for places to go during our stay in York. We chose the steak pie from the menu which did not disappoint, it was full of flavour and was well worth the wait, we would thoroughly recommend . The only disappointment was the gas lights and candles advertised on the website were nowhere to be seen, a real shame as although we were eating in an historic building the ambience of the promised lighting was lacking and left us feeling a little flat.

    Visited York for the weekend and the wife wasn't going to miss out on trying the 'viral' pie. She wasn't disappointed! Excellent food, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Couldn't fault it.

    Went after being told to try the steak pie which was delicious but huge! Make sure you are hungry before you go! Staff were very friendly and attentive. The pie was priced fairly but had to order separate veg which was disappointing as quite expensive for what it was and would have expected a few peas and some cabbage as part of the meal. Overall worth a trip I would say.
