Hole In The Wall

The Hole In The Wall is a traditional red-brick pub on High Petergate, positioned between York Art Gallery, York Museum and York Minster. Its central setting makes it suited to a stop during a day of exploring, as well as to relaxed meals and drinks in the evening.

The menu includes hearty pub classics, lighter bites and desserts, giving diners a choice between a substantial meal, something more casual or a sweet finish. The food offer is accompanied by a broad drinks selection that includes beer and wine, making the venue suitable for a meal, a drink with friends or a longer catch-up.

A relaxed atmosphere is central to the pub’s character. The traditional interior and friendly approach are intended to make visits feel informal rather than formal, whether the occasion is a quick refreshment, an evening gathering or a family celebration. The venue’s flexible style also suits different kinds of visits, from casual daytime stops to social meals.

The Hole In The Wall caters for groups as well as smaller parties, with celebration bookings available for occasions that call for a shared meal or drinks. Families are also part of the pub’s audience, while the menu format gives mixed groups room to choose different styles of food. The setting works particularly well for visitors looking to stay close to the city’s cultural landmarks without choosing a formal restaurant.

Food is served throughout the day and into the evening, with separate service times for Sundays. The pub also promotes activities such as live music and quiz nights, although the programme can vary. Table ordering and other offers are available through the venue’s digital services, adding convenience for diners who prefer a more informal way to order.

With its central location, traditional pub style and broad food menu, The Hole In The Wall provides a practical option for casual dining, drinks and group occasions near the Minster and the city’s museums.
