The food and atmosphere were excellent but as we were in a side room we felt a little forgotten about as we had to remind them about our main course that hadn’t arrived when she was asking if we would like the dessert menu.

Lovely food. Only downside was the room at the front where, we were seated, was very warm. Unfortunately the windows could not be opened and there were no fans (we did ask).

Our room was heavily worn and looking very tired. We were woken early one morning with substantial banging and crashing from an upstairs room. We were not informed that any maintenance was going on, but it seemed that there was heavy work taking place. Our TV signal was very poor indeed and the kettle wire only just reached the plug which meant it fell on the floor when the kettle was lifted. The food was ok but the staff were not very attentive in service. We could hear them chatting down the corridor. This was a shame because the venue has charm.

A lovely historic building houses The Fat Badger. It was our 1st visit and The food, ambience and service were good. The decor of the building is lovely with a popular secret garden overlooking the Minister. Would definately return next time in York

Big outdoor courtyard garden for pre-dinner drinks, nice views of the Minster but can’t be seen due to umbrellas. The umbrellas aren’t for the sun, they are to save you from all the bird poo. They are very active! Drinks are on the expensive side. Wouldn’t recommend going for the tapas, all tiny and not worth the money. Have a starter instead. Mains were very nice. Quality of meat was impressive even in the beef burger. Could have been better with nicer chips, it cheapened the experience. Dessert tasty, honeycomb burnt. Would return, overall good-great.
