Impossible York

Hmmm. A bit of a let down. Was recommended to come here through a online guide to good places to eat in York, but the food was subpar in my opinion. I wasnt very hungry, so went for the croquettes and they were very much giving me deep fried from frozen vibes. The boys had burgers, which were average. The tables were a bit spaced out, giving the place an empty feeling. We were there for lunchtime, and I imagine it might be more fun in the evening for cocktails or drinks with a large bar at the rear. The toilets need to be sorted out. They were pretty disgusting. One of the hot taps in the ladies was stuck on and I got the feeling it had been like that for a while which just seemed lazy and wasteful. They were smelly and messy with paper towels on the floor. The gents was even worse by all accounts.

Went for a drag show brunch. The food was nice enough. However the show was very disappointing, I was expecting longer than a 20 minute sing along, which was below average for entertaining. Was very expensive for what we got! The tables were dirty and needed a good clean. The drink choices from the brunch menu wasnt very impressive, and the service was slow, so did not get value for money that way either. Wont be booking again, such a let down

We had such a wonderful time at impossible. Bottomless brunch for a hen party is never an easy task but Emily was absolutely exceptional. She was fab and absolutely nothing was too much trouble for our table. Thank you Emily xx

On holiday to York, we came across this very interesting looking bar/tea room and were looking for breakfast. First things first, as I'm disabled and on a mobility scooter, the access into the tea room is excellent (I couldn't get into Betty's, even if I tried), and the staff were more than helpful in opening the double doors, even though I could get in through a single door. This is all fine, but what about the food? I had the big Yorkshire breakfast. I am fussy about good quality bacon, sausage and eggs, and this more than stood up to scrutiny. I found that it was also good value,as well as excellent quality...in fact, I couldn't eat it all!!! My partner had the pancake stack with berries. It was stunningly presented, and according to her, was "very delicious". Overall, an excellent experience. Don't expect cheap and cheerful...this is a high quality place. You do definitely get what you pay for. When we come back to York, we will return to Impossible without hesitation Wheelchair accessibility: Excellent accessibility for wheelchairs and mobility scooters, which, in a mediaeval city, is rare, and a pleasant surprise
