Located in St. Sampsons Square - a historic part of York’s city centre known for selling great meat since the 12th century - The Cut & Craft York is widely considered one of York’s best steak restaurants.

Boasting its own in-house master butcher and a signature 10oz Flat Iron steak, this elegant restaurant is stylishly decorated with historic features throughout. Open daily for lunch and dinner, with brunch and roasts on the weekends, it’s centrally located close to the famous mediaeval York Shambles and under the shadow of York Minster.

Named 'Restaurant of the Year' at the Yorkshire National Business Hero Awards in 2023 and 2024, The Cut & Craft combines contemporary steak and seafood dishes with a premium list of locally-crafted drinks.

    We were disappointed that there was no party atmosphere to bring in the new Year. We chose to dine late as on the advertisement for New Year’s Eve it stated that the New Year would be welcomed in - but we felt like our courses were rushed - when we got our bill we were charged over £300 but we had already prepaid a few weeks earlier - we only needed to pay the supplement for the steaks and onion rings - there was a service charge of £27 it wasn’t the experience we were looking forward to and have dined here many times before - so overall it was disappointing. We ended up leaving before Midnight and most of the other diners had left and we couldn’t gain entry any where else as we had missed the last entrance time and ended up bringing the New year in on a Street corner 😞

    Came for NYE dinner and it was lovely atmosphere not too loud but still felt festive! Food came out a bit quick which was the only downside but it still tasted great. Our server Abby was fantastic and service from everyone was 10/10 would definitely go back.

    Had a friend from USA with us and ordered 3 flat iron steaks. 2 were great but the other one was if from a different cut altogether?! It was chewy and undercooked. However staff polite and offered to do another one- which came up the same unlike the other 2 which were great, cooked to perfection and sweet. The second one came up the same chewy inedible and by now the rest of the party had nearly finished their steaks so my friend just ended up with a house salad. Not a great experience. Dessert was baked Alaska but meringue was just a sloppy mess on top of ice cream!! Not good enough. Wee we were then told the ice cream had made the meringue melt??? If so why bother serving it up. All in all disappointing. Shame as had been recommended to us but I wouldn’t want the same experience again.
