If you really enjoy sweet treats and want to try a range of different teas and coffees, Bettys offers so much. People from all over the world visit this shop and tearoom and there is always a queue out of the door! My favourite sweet treat is the classic Fondant Fancy and for savoury, it has to be the potato rosti. Bettys is a very special, traditional place.

Thor's Tipi is the highlight of the festive season in York! We have so many locals and visitors who enjoy the Tipi every year as it offers a fantastic atmosphere, music and a range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. The mulled wine and hot chocolate with marshmallows go down a treat! Depending on which time of day you go, you may have to queue and I would recommend going with young families or small children in the afternoon. There are lots of seats, fur rugs and fire pits to keep you nice and toasty inside. The location of the Tipi changes each year so check online to see where you can find it before your visit.
