My partner and I had a lovely dinner here whilst staying at the Principal Hotel which is adjoined. We opted for some calamari, truffles and cream cheese stuffed peppers which were all incredible. For our mains we had the rib eye steak and fish & chips which really hit the spot and utterly delicious. Our servers were all very professional, polite and extremely friendly and made sure we were having an exceptional time. Fatou imparticular was outstanding and looked after us for the whole evening. We would highly recommend having lunch or dinner here. It's right by the train station and a great environment inside.

The atmosphere here is first class as was the knowledge and insight of our waitress. All the food was perfectly cooked if a little slow at the mains preparation stage with unexpected portion sizes (which we were notified of 😍). The fifth star was lost as lavender was not mentioned on the desert menu with the honeycake and that's the sort of ingredient you want to know about in advance! Gratuity ("freely given") also was included on the bill at point of print even though we would have ... Freely.... added one.

Called in for lunch on Tuesday. Not a very big menu but a fair range on it. I had the cottage pie and my friend the fish pie. Lovely tasty food but just this in a dish. No veggies !!!! Priced at £15 for a cottage pie I have to say I did expect some vegetables with it ! Waitress was very attentive and came to check on us a couple of time, also offering to pour more wine for us. This is not meant to be a negative comment as I thoroughly enjoyed it, just disappointed that there was no veg.

We were celebrating a milestone birthday. On a Sunday. At 1pm. You'd have thought at that time of day, service and food would have been impeccable. It was not. Service was very slow and people had to be reminded several times about things. Drinks. Spoons. When the Sunday roasts arrived, half the table had to start eating before the rest and my roast potatoes had a skin so thick my knife couldn't cut through.

I've eaten at the Refectory twice recently, and both times really enjoyed the experience. In particular, the aged rib eye steak was delicious (I was told the steak is aged in a room made from Himalayan salt blocks) and the heritage beetroot and goat's cheese salad was also particularly good. Everything is well-priced, and there is a good drinks list (the cocktails in the next door Chapter House bar also also excellent). Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. There is also an outdoor terrace (overlooking York station) which is a great place to sit when the weather is sunny.

Nice place to eat near the station meanwhile you're waiting for a train. Good food not excellent but if you're starving is the good choice. A mention to the fantastic football table wooden made, a piece of art.

5 stars been here before food was fantastic and service was outstanding, Very quick service well impressed, pleasant experience highly recommended, price for Sunday lunch was cheaper on website and no quibble resulting in me paying the website price, funny how i have not been here for years and I remembered waiter vis versa very pleasant chap makes the place more relaxed hassle free
