Mount

You'll find Mount tucked away on Blossom Street, in that part of York where locals outnumber tourists and people actually know the barkeeper's name. It's the sort of pub that takes its beer seriously without being pretentious about it—real ales on tap, decent wine list, the works. The food's straightforward and done well, nothing trying too hard. It's got that lived-in feel where you can roll in alone for a pint or bring mates for a proper evening without anyone making a fuss either way. The ratings speak for themselves: locals keep coming back because it's exactly what a neighbourhood pub should be.
