About us

In our time we have managed to raise a few eyebrows with our name, and many have said that our interior is certainly quirky if not a little risqué, all of which we love as we want to be unique and fun.

When it comes to the food and drinks we serve however; we are very serious...

When we set about creating The Whippet Inn our main aim was to get the best food produce we could find in Yorkshire and then pair it with real ales, lagers, spirits and wines from around Great Britain.

Great Beef is our thing, offering our guests a variety of cuts and breeds of beef but we have something for everyone, be it, lunch & a lite bite, dinner or just a drink in our bar.Our bar is an eclectic mix of Real Yorkshire Ales - right through to over 30 bespoke gins- we may be small but we have used every nook and cranny to ensure we have an amazing range to offer our quests. Creating a home from home atmosphere where our guests can relax & enjoy themselves.

All this is delivered with down to earth homely Yorkshire hospitality.

A little disappointed in the food here. I decided upon the fillet steak as there was no option for sirloin available. It was cooked perfectly but lacked seasoning. I chose triple cooked chips with mine and these were lovely. My wife decided on sea bass and was not blown away by it. Not a great selection of beers to choose from sadly.. the restaurant itself was very nice. The staff were very attentive and helpful. It was a little on the pricey side of things but generally worth it.

Absolutely delicious food, great choice of wine. What let the experience down was being in a small room with noisy people and overloud music. The Sunday lunch menu had some great options and was value for money.

Beautiful interior and ambience with attentive and knowledgeable staff. Lots of great wine options. I was recommended Shiraz by the waiter and it did not disappoint - Shiraz has now become my go-to choice when it comes to red wine. Regarding their food menu, I think they have mastered their burger, which I believe should receive no less of recognition than their stakes. Their burger is packed full of flavour and its huge! For a dessert, I highly recommend their sticky toffee pudding - it was the best sticky toffee I have ever had! Thank you to the chefs and the front of house team for a great experience.

Just wow! Visited for our anniversary last night and it was our first time visiting. Staff were lovely, it was a beautiful atmosphere and the cocktails and food is incredible. We both had the Tbone steak and the sides were really good portions too! We couldn't quite manage a dessert but the drinks were lovely. Definitely will come back here again next time we're in York!

One of our favourite restaurants we’ve visited in recent times. Everything from the starters to mains and cocktails was superb and faultless. Although the service was slick and efficient we didn’t felt rushed, even after finishing our meal. We’d like to thank our waiter Heather for the wonderful service and friendly hospitality she bought to the meal as well as her knowledge of the menu and dishes. Although just visiting on a holiday, we would definitely return should we be in the area and would highly recommend to anyone. A true little gem in York! Tucked away in a beautiful venue!
