Traditional pub with rooms near York city centre, serving locally sourced meals
Dining
The on-site pub serves home-cooked meals prepared with locally sourced ingredients, including daily specials that feature seasonal local produce. Generous portion sizes are standard, with menu options like the steak and ale pie and the chicken sizzler. Breakfast includes a full English with locally supplied meats and eggs, with a comprehensive menu available each morning.
Rooms
Each room has unique decor reflecting the pub's character and history, with antique furniture and themed designs. The deluxe double rooms include a French-style sleigh bed or a super-king bed, plus a modern en-suite bathroom with a powerful shower. A resident cat named Tom adds charm to the stay, and rooms are serviced daily with replenished tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and biscuits.
Location & Transport
The Plough Inn is less than 3 miles from York Railway station and 2 miles from The Shambles, with York Racecourse a 9-minute drive away. A bus stop outside the pub offers a direct service into York city centre every 10 minutes, allowing guests to leave their car in the free on-site car park. The hotel also provides a beautiful walking route along the river into the city.
Outdoor Spaces
The pub has a beautiful garden with outdoor seating and a covered terrace available for dining. Guests can use the garden and terrace for drinks and meals, with the garden offering a quiet space away from the main road. A separate residents' entrance provides direct access to the rooms without going through the bar.

Monday nights feature a quiz night with £3 entry that includes a bingo ticket and sausage and chips, popular with locals and students.
