About Revolution York

Revolution York is a lounge bar on Coney St in York, split across two floors. Downstairs has a main bar and the White bar, and patio doors lead to a riverside garden terrace with its own pizza shack, a bar, heaters and rugs. Upstairs, two large areas share two private bars and a DJ booth. The upstairs private hire room has views over the river, and the venue hosts birthday parties, corporate events and Christmas nights out. For hen dos and other group bookings, a host runs a cocktail masterclass. Buffet food is offered for private events, with dietary requirements labelled. The bar also runs a happy hour.

Customer Review Summary

The caveat is food and value. One reviewer found the afternoon tea dry and bland, with basic sandwiches, cheap-tasting sweets and no knives or forks at the table. Another says meals arrived cold after a long wait and the plates looked lonely, with a side of salad or coleslaw suggested. Two others mention mix-ups, over a food order and a booking, that staff resolved, in one case with a round of drinks on the house.

    “We had our wedding celebration party at Revolution York following our register office ceremony, and we couldn’t have chosen a better venue. We were recommended Revolution by a friend and made an enquiry online — from the very first communication, the staff were incredibly helpful, informative, and friendly. After viewing the private hire room upstairs, with its beautiful views over the river and modern open space, we knew it was the perfect spot for a relaxed and informal wedding reception. Revolution were so accommodating throughout the whole process. Stacey and the evening manager (I’m so sorry I can’t recall his name!), Melissa from the hospitality management team, and all the staff were absolutely brilliant. Stacey went above and beyond by helping set up some of our small décor pieces and even surprised us with personalised welcome posters and drink menus for our guests. The welcome drinks were displayed beautifully and went down a treat. The buffet food was delicious, so many guests commented on how much they enjoyed it. Everything was clearly labelled for dietary requirements, and a special gluten‑free platter was prepared for our coeliac guest, which was hugely appreciated. Fresh water was even provided for my dog (yes, it’s dog friendly!), and the managers regularly checked in with me about the food, music, room temperature, and anything else we might need. Their kindness and attention to detail meant I could fully relax and enjoy the day without worrying about a thing. I would 100% recommend Revolution York as a wedding reception venue if you’re looking for a relaxed, fun vibe without the fuss of a huge traditional wedding. I’m sure it would also be great for a party or corporate event. If I were to do it all again, I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you so much to the whole team for making our day so special.”
