Fossgate Fever!

One particular street that’s on the rise is Fossgate! The road is making great strides, be it in food and drink, fashion or literature! In essence, the perfect place to visit during the day or night!

There are many great eateries along Fossgate. The Hop for example is an open and vibrant bar, fitted at the back with a traditional wood oven! If you’re fancying a slice, get on down! The typologies of pizza stretch far and wide! In terms of going for a drink, a wide selection of beers, ciders and wines are on sale! Sutlers Bar and Kitchen on the corner also offers a great selection of food and drink; particularly in the British department. Fond favourites such as fish and chips and steak and ale pie, can be found on the menu!

With reference to coffee, Fossgate is right up your street! Two examples that spring to mind instantaneously are Spring Espresso and Fossgate Social! The former and latter both offer the most hospitable and upbeat of atmospheres, as well as serving incredibly tasting coffee! We personally recommend the Americano on both accounts! Spring Espresso provides an assemblage of comfort treats to go alongside a pick-me-up! All the favourite condiments and toast (not together we promise) and porridge are sold also. A muster of different kinds of sandwiches is hand-made also. The latter on the other hand put on a weekly event, which provides an amalgamation of the best local music acts!

When it comes to fashion, you can't go wrong with Bowler Vintage!  This vintage/retro store is located at the heart of Fossgate, vending vintage garments from only the best sources. Initially exclusively selling Women's wear on Walmgate, Bowler divulged into Men's clothing also upon arrival.  You can be sure that all vintage styles are catered for here!

If by any chance you happen to be a lover of literature, then look no further! With the likes of Fossgate Books, Lucius Books and the Barbican Bookshop, you are surely spoilt for choice. The former is ideal for those into poetry and the arts, let alone the fantastic depths they possess in all subjects. Lucius’ in particular specialises in rarities and hand written documents. The latter’s collection stems from Yorkshire itself, providing sources on the railways, the subject of aviation, and  classical literature from previous centuries.

We implore you to take a stroll down Fossgate, and be sure to let us know about your experience!
