3. The York
famous for its extensive beer selection, cozy pub atmosphere

Immerse yourself in the sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere of The York, where a diverse selection of beverages, delicious cuisine, and succulent oysters and pickles are sure to captivate your senses. Tune out the noise of others' opinions and embrace the opportunity to form your own. The refined setting is matched only by the top-notch service provided. I highly recommend trying the specialty drink, FUMA THAT SHHH, for a one-of-a-kind experience that starts with a zesty citrus infusion and concludes with a rich, smoky essence.
