great place to grab a drink or some

Held my birthday party at Kennedys in March (24), the Kennedys team were incredible at helping to pre-plan arrangements and on the night, the team made it a night to remember. The bar staff provided a seamless service, the canopes served were amazing and so many guests feedback on how good the food was. If you want to hold a party and create the most perfect memories then Kennedys can offer it all.

Incredibly hostile security at the entrance who stopped us to comment on our clothing and harassed one of my friends for not having their ID with them. We were going for dinner that we?d pre-booked and weren?t drinking, so this harassment was unnecessary and did not make a good first impression. Service was friendly, the waitresses were kind and helpful but it took a long while for food to be served. The food itself was alright - not bad but nothing amazing. Atmosphere was good but live music was ridiculously loud given that people were still having dinner - would be good for drinks. Overall disappointed and will not be going back.

Had a lovely night out. The food was fantastic. By far the best part was the service. Lewis did a fantastic job with ordering our mains and drinks, he was exceptionally polite, friendly, and patient. We were seated and ordered our deserts with Emily who was equally excellent, we were happy to pay the service charge because of how great they were. Give them both a raise!!

Enjoyed a lovely lunch today. The small plates are delicious! Good and friendly service and a great cup of coffee to finish. The Sunday lunch looks amazing and definitely something to try when we are next in York. Thank you guys ?

The worst meal I?ve ever had in my life. No exaggeration. Do not get the curry. Tastes like water. My boyfriend liked the steak though so that?s why the rating isn?t lower. Service was great but a point off for the chef. Music was way too loud and I?m in my young 20s so I don?t hate loud music. Spare your tastebuds and go drink fizzy water. Would have more flavor.

Place almost empty when we arrived. Waited 45 minutes for a couple of buns and some nachos with stuff plopped on top. LBT bun was mediocre. Halumi bun was tasteless with some wet stuff in it - I was famished but abandoned it rather than punish myself further. Cold cheesy stuff cemented the nachos together, making them pretty inedible when they could be prised off the plate. Waiter was smiley apologetic but considering we'd had to chase the food three times it may have been appropriate for someone in a supervisory role to make an appearance - possible wasn't anyone. Dark and drab brown interior didn't add to the experience. Seems more of a tourist trap than a serious food outlet.

Called in on a Friday afternoon to take advantage of the January special of 50% off food, We were the only 2 in which seemed strange and thought did people know something we didn?t about this place! We ordered drinks and 3 of their small plates to start, the pardon peppers, chicken & chorizo skewers and the sourdough bread they were excellent and well presented, we then ordered the burger and the Korean chicken flat bread both again excellent, by this time the place had started to fill up and the atmosphere was good. When the bill arrived there was a service charge which worked out around 15% and to around £9.00 the server said it could be removed we asked the server if they got it or it went to the restaurant, she said they got it so we paid it as we were going to tip them £5.00 anyway as they were so nice. The service charge is not stated anywhere on the menu which may cause confrontation from some customers. All in all a good experience and a bonus with the food discount.

Four of us called in for lunch. We all had burgers which came with chips. Freshly cooked to order. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The meal was too large for two of us was quickly packed in foil trays to take home. Not much atmosphere as it was on a lunch time . It was clean and tidy. The only thing I could say was it was a little chilly . At the moment 50 per cent off or two for one on burgers Monday to Wednesday so definitely worth a visit

Walked in no booking but seated very soon, shared a steak sandwich, fried and drinks . Great service and delicious food, steak cooked perfectly. Ambience ok, but areas of light and dark and very echoey, just a not for anyone with autism issues. Dark stairway and dark walls to facilities. But excellent service and food x thank you to the young lady who served us. X

We went to Kennedys to celebrate my husbands birthday on Thursday 18th Jan. We shared an offer on two steaks and a bottle of wine. The steak was cooked perfectly and the rest of the meal was equally as good. Whilst the rest of York was very quiet Kennedys was buzzing so the atmosphere was great add that to the staff being cheerful and efficient and you get a smashing night
