Fish & Seafood Restaurants in York

1. Fish and Forest Fish & seafood restaurant in York 13 Grape Lane - YO1

“Glad to see Fish and Forest settled into its new, larger home in a more central York location” – Steven Andrews’s descriptively-named bistro shifted to this “new Grape Lane location” in August 2024 (a site previously owned by his parents and run as the 1331 Bar & Grill). He serves an “excellent, inventive and short menu” (four starters, four mains, two puds) which changes frequently based on the availability of produce. One reporter complained that there was “not enough of the forest on the menu”, but there is mostly all-round praise in feedback for the “comfortable environment, knowledgeable staff” and “some outstanding flavours coupled to impeccable ingredients that make for a lovely experience”.

2. The Whippet Inn Steaks & grills restaurant in York 15 North St - YO1

“Tucked away off the main street and without a sign outside, it may be difficult to find but it’s well worth seeking out” this trendy decade-old haunt from the owners of the Stone Trough Inn in Kirkham Abbey. The venue “specialises in beef, especially ex-dairy cows”, be it Finnish Sashi beef, or Galicia’s famous blonde cattle; add in a “buzzy atmosphere” and “attentive” service, and it “makes for a meat-eater’s heaven”.
