Atmosphere

Pros:

  • "Booked a cocktail masterclass for a hen activity and it was brilliant we had loads of fun and everyone was included."
  • "Booked for cocktail masterclass and food for a hen party. We had a fab time and cocktail masterclass with Connor and Olivia was great fun."
  • "One of my favourite spots for day drinking in York. Located right on the riverfront."
  • "A cosy, warm place to escape the wintery weather whilst in York."

  • "Attended for New Year’s Eve, poorly run event and was completely over sold."
  • "We booked a cocktail making class here for my niece's hen doo 11th March. On arrival they put us in the main lounge with hundreds of other people!"
  • "Absolutely disgraceful. Do not book cocktail classes!!!"
  • "Sat outside by the river last week... Overall had a great afternoon until we got up to leave and had to go inside. There were at least 5 hen parties in there screeching and stumbling about drunk."
  • "It is essentially a grimy nightclub with horrible toilets serving food in the day."
  • "If you're going to Revolution expect many humans will be in on a weekend, there will be a lot of people in 'night out' mode/attire, the music will be too loud."

  • "Visited for the bottomless brunch - but the food was below average. The chicken and waffles were dry."
  • "The food was bland, the desserts were okay but incredibly dry."
