Fabulous experience - Would thoroughly recommend this tour. A great way to learn a bit of history and sample a delicious variety of food from independent restaurants that you may wish to revisit on your own. Our guide Marianne (hope I’ve spelled that correctly) was informative and friendly. Really enjoyed the whole experience!

York Food/History Tour - Kay guided us round York, sampling delicious food at five venues, whilst relating the history of the surrounding area. An excellent afternoon with good company.

A very tasty gift. - A real treat gifted to us as a Christmas present. Kay, our guide, looked after us so very well and provided exactly the right level of historical information for me. Our small group of 8 were not strangers for long. The food, of course, was the main focus and it was exciting and gorgeous. The contrasting venues, interesting or quirky, were all great choices. If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to join this tour, do wear comfortable footwear. Not too much walking, but some venues have stairs which could feel challenging when you have a full belly! I would spoil it for you if I shared which food we sampled, but have no hesitation in recommending this yummy tour.

Leisurely Sunday Afternoon Dining. - Enjoyed the food. Found the small group more intimate, easier to chat. Host Marianne was great. Would recommend for people that want a bit more info on sights in York and some time to mingle with new people.

"A Feast for the Senses: A Must-Do York Experience!" - Small Group Tasting Tour of York? More like a grand adventure for the taste buds! What an amazing way to not just see some of York's charming streets, but to truly experience them. Learning snippets of history between delectable bites from independent restaurants and cafes made this tour an absolute delight. Honestly, this was the perfect way to kickstart our visit to York. The tastings were divine, the tour was engaging, and I can't recommend Yorkshire Appetite Food Tours enough. If you want to savor the true essence of York, look no further!

A taste of the world in 5 stops - Louise was a great tour guide and took us to eateries and places off the beaten track in York. The Nepalese tasting dish was delicious.
