All Bar One York Review

August 20, 2017 Comments : 8

Clock at All Bar One York Review

A couple of weeks ago I was in York for the day as Laura Haley Photography, shooting with Louise. As I don’t do enough food reviews on Inside Laura’s Head lately (hi restaurants/PRs-I’d LOVE to come and review for you! Laura likes food…) I thought I’d do an All Bar One York Review.

We wanted cheap but decent, filling, proper food and somewhere that looked nice. That’s definitely what we got with All Bar One. I had a Peach Melba Mocktail and the Fish Finger Wrap (good old Fish Fingers-such a brilliant food!) I paid around £10 for my lunch which was well worth the money-£2.85 for my drink and £7.00 for my wrap.

I think we caught them at a busy time as we were offered sauces which we said yes to but they didn’t bring them over-we had to chase someone else but we did eventually get our ketchup and mayo. Wasn’t a big deal, just meant I spent ten minutes looking at my food when I could have been eating it. It happens.

 

I’m a big fan of the decor inside-the scrabble letters on the wall are cool and the different coloured glass light shades. Very much my kind of place, with a relaxed vibe-I could’ve happily sat and had a few drinks in there, or gone in to start off a night out. I imagine it gets busier on an evening, we went in at 2:30pm so it wasn’t that lively, not that we wanted lively.

Would I go to All Bar One again? Yes, most likely. I’d like to try more of their menu, like the Trio of Fries I was eyeing up. I’d also really like to try their cocktails, so next time I’m in York without my car (or somewhere else with an All Bar One, since they’re a chain) I’ll pop in for a drink or six. I do love a cocktail!

Have you been to All Bar One before? What did you think?

    I have never been to All Bar One but I would like to try it out. The decor looks very inviting and modern. I think the wrap is a bit expensive through, £7, but the mocktail is definitely good value for money and it does look very refreshing.

    I’ve seen All Bar One’s around, but never ventured in. This needs to change – it looks so beautiful inside and that food looks delicious!

    I like All Bar One, there are quite a few here in London and it’s always a good night out.

    My parents have been & used to love it but after a semi recent trip they no longer like to go.
    This place is done up so nicely though <3 I've never been to one as I keep to only one place due to being Vegan haha! Pre-vegan I would have headed there.

    I absolutely love the decor especially the lampshades. I am not near York but would certainly consider it if I ever visit 🙂

About Me

Welcome to my little corner of the Internet! I'm Laura, a 33 year old Yorkshire girl aiming to see as much of the world as I can, usually by myself. I'm a big fan of animal print, bright lipstick, gin liqueurs, cocktails, photography, writing and booking flights. I'm in love with a Lhasapoo called Buster and if I don't have my phone, laptop or a camera in my hand, you probably need to ask if I'm feeling okay. I blog about short city breaks, usually solo, on a budget without a hostel in sight. I also cover food reviews, life with Fibromyalgia, and there's a bit of lifestyle content thrown in when the mood takes me. I'm aiming to have visited 40 different countries before I turn 40, so I have 7 years left. Coronavirus has slightly changed my plans for 2020 but so far I'm 17 countries into the challenge and as long as September and October remain safe to travel I'm adding Czech Republic, Hungary, Austria, Romania, Serbia and a couple of others to the list before this year ends. I love working with brands on sponsored/collaborative content and if you're a travel or food related company, or just someone you think I'll love, please do get in touch.

I absolutely haven't taken Instagram or the blog a I absolutely haven't taken Instagram or the blog all that seriously in 2020 and barely posted on either. That's fine, obviously, but I miss both, so for 2021 I want to be back to daily Instagram posts, finding people to follow that bring me joy, learning the best hashtags to use and trying to make a bit of progress on here. Hoping I'll get a fair bit of travel in in the second half of the year to help with this too. Happy New Year, Instagram!
Walking quickly out of 2020... This year has been Walking quickly out of 2020...

This year has been a bloody weird one hasn't it. Not just with the Pandemic, although obviously that's been a big part of it, but dealing with the hangover from a breakup, trying to make my new house a home, maintaining friendships when I can't see anyone and I'm not good on Zoom, and A LOT of overtime at work. Work has been going really well though and I'm excited to see what 2021 brings me there. I do know that I miss properly using Instagram, and writing on Inside Laura's Head, and I'm currently writing my 2021 goals post as we speak. What are you looking forward to in 2021?
Vienna, after only 24 hours in the city, has becom Vienna, after only 24 hours in the city, has become one of those 'I really need to go back to....' places on my travel list. On Thursday I posted over on the blog about what I did during my day in the city, I wasn't sure whether to post this so close to the horrible events they've had this week but actually, I think sharing how amazing the city is is a very positive thing. Link to the post is, as ever, in my bio, if you want to go and have a read
I've spent today working overtime and listening to I've spent today working overtime and listening to a new audiobook, 'The Year Of Living Danishly' by @mshelenrussell. Ive finished it in a day, loved it and want to go back to Copenhagen now as well as exploring more of Denmark. But for now, I will stay at home, be sensible, and add Denmark to my plan for if things work out for next year. 📷: @fordtography

My last stop in Vienna (maybe, depending on how I My last stop in Vienna (maybe, depending on how I feel in the morning!) was St Stephens Cathedral where I tried Chimney Cake (yum) and Schnitzel (meh) before heading back to my apartment and collapsing onto the sofa. Tomorrow I have an hour ish to the train, 4 hours on the train, a 2 hour flight then an hours drive home, after maybe 30 mins to get to my car. I suspect Monday is going to be a flare and a half 😑
Prague, its been a warm one, but I've had a lovely Prague, its been a warm one, but I've had a lovely couple of days exploring! Never did make it to Prague Castle but its somewhere behind me 🤣 I wasn't sure whether or not to come abroad on my week off, and I only booked this on Friday to fly on Tuesday, but it's doing me the world of good, I have two days in Vienna to go before I fly home, and of course I'm taking the relevant precautions and will be isolating when home. Its so quiet here though which helps ❤️
