Stories from our tables

"Booked last minute on a Saturday night and had a wonderful meal. The pizzas were exceptional- fresh, authentic and sooo tasty. The rosemary potatoes were a lovely side dish too. The service was super fast and friendly, the prices awesome value - could not fault this place and will return every time we are in York! Side note just for veggies and vegans: there is a full vegan menu available"

Came across this hidden gem while taking an evening scroll. Whilst looking at the menu, a couple highly recommended the place and they’d already visited twice. We opted for the two-course set menu, which turned out to be a fantastic choice. The food and service did not disappoint. The setting added to the magic housed in a beautiful timber-framed building that made the whole experience feel special. A truly memorable evening. Thank you for the experience!!

“We loved La Piazza Antica. In a city with plenty of big names and big prices, this restaurant feels like a real find: excellent food, warm service and very fair value. The setting alone is special, inside a 500-year-old building with high vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, giving the restaurant real character without feeling overdone. There is also a quaint outdoor courtyard, which is a lovely bonus for summer dining.”.

“Went to York last Friday and we decided to stop at this restaurant as it seemed really nice from the outside. The atmosphere inside was really warm and cosy, the waiting staff were lovely, and Giulia was simply adorable. The food was fresh and delicious. Would 100% recommed! We will be back again soon! ”
