About This Pub
Ah, Bobos Cocktail Bar in York – what a spot for a proper night out! I've got to say, it's one of those places that really nails the good times with its fantastic cocktails; those two-for-£12 deals are an absolute bargain and make it easy to try a few without breaking the bank. The atmosphere is electric, with upbeat tunes that get everyone singing along, and that heated shisha terrace adds a fun twist, especially on cooler evenings. The staff are lovely too, always popping over with a smile and even offering little extras like free popcorn to keep things cheerful. But, let's be honest, it's not all roses – I've heard from a few folks that the shisha can be a bit hit-or-miss, with some saying it tastes weird and doesn't last long, and the seating in those areas isn't exactly comfy for a long sit. Plus, if you're looking for more non-alcoholic options, there aren't loads on offer, so it might not suit everyone. All in all, it's a brilliant choice for a laugh with friends in York, as long as you focus on the cocktails and vibes and manage your expectations on the rest.

Cons
-
Some of the shisha experiences fall short – it can taste a bit off and burn quickly, which might disappoint if that's what you're after.
-
The seating in certain areas, like the shisha lounge, isn't the most comfortable, so you might end up shifting about a fair bit.

Amazing! What a beautiful place and lovely staff. Great cocktails
Yummy cocktail! 2 for £12, sat out of heated terrace- very nice!
Highly overrated. Shisha lounge was disastrous... The seating is very uncomfortable, not much variety of non-alcoholic drinks..... Shisha tasted sooooo weird and the flavours did not taste very nice and burnt very quickly. We went there after reading the reviews but it is highly overrated and hyped. Nothing special about the place and is expensive in comparison to other places.
Stopped in for a hookah after getting drinks at evil eye, had a great night. Great vibe and sheesh options. Really liked the hookah very easy to smoke and the patio was warm and inviting
Really good pub. Went there for a few drinks and shisha with 2 of my friends. Lucy was really kind and sweet, along with the other servers, often asking us if we need anything and offering free popcorn. One of the best places to chill in York.
