York Beer & Wine Shop

No Longer In Business

Visited in 2017. Very old school shop with something of the 'Open All Hours' about it. Not the most extensive collection, but I did buy a local beer from here, I can't remember which though.

Visited a couple times over the years. A pleasant, long-established, small shop with a decent selection of beers - most of the interest is in the UK beers, which include plenty of local stuff. It’s a short walk from the city centre and a lot of people will find Trembling Madness covers their beer purchasing requirements in a more central location. That’s a bit of a shame as many sizeable UK towns & cities can’t manage a single decent beer shop, let alone a surplus. They used to have some special unique beers made under their own label but I don’t know whether they still do. Note that they are only open in the evening on Sunday & Monday.

Fairly small shop, with almost equal quantity of wine and beer. Beer focuses on local Yorkshire ales, lots of scottish and German , with a variety of other European origins. Cheese selection is good.

Quite a small shop a short walk out of the centre, there is street parking if you arrive at a quieter time. Not an enormous range, but enough to be going on with. Seems to concentrate on UK bottled ales and German imports. You are left to get on with your selecting, but wasn’t the most communicative of people running it. Handy though.

Good selection of local and UK beers and German bottles.
