Local tip
A booking is useful when a meal, breakfast or overnight stay needs to be planned together.

The Plough is a traditional English pub in Fulford, on the outskirts of the ancient city of York. Its character comes from a long-established pub setting, with a warm welcome, home-cooked food and a well-stocked bar. The atmosphere suits relaxed meals, drinks and overnight stays rather than a formal dining occasion.

Food is served in the style associated with a traditional English pub, making The Plough a practical choice for a straightforward lunch, evening meal or casual bite. The bar provides a place for drinks, while the pub’s historic character adds to the sense of occasion without taking away from its informal feel. The offering is suitable for diners looking for familiar pub cooking and for those stopping by for a drink.

Outside, a beer garden provides space for eating or drinking in the open air. Free car parking adds convenience for visits from outside Fulford, and the pub is dog friendly, making it suitable for guests looking for a relaxed stop with a canine companion. The setting also works for people combining food or drinks with a stay, as boutique bedrooms are available at the pub.

The Plough offers an option for several types of visit, including a casual meal, a drink in a traditional pub environment, a garden visit or an overnight stay. Its location outside the city centre gives it a more local setting while keeping it within reach of York’s attractions. Breakfast is also available for staying guests, with service in the morning. Dining, drinking and accommodation are brought together in one venue, with a focus on traditional pub character and home-cooked food.
