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.

    The restaurant is nice and comfortable. But the steak is overcooked although I order medium rare. Other foods are very good. So it is a nice place to go and enjoy except the steak. It would be better if the price is lower.

    Overall we had a lovely Xmas Eve experience. I regularly eat at the Leeds branch and sadly was a little bit disappointed with the York one. Our server was lovely, I’m sure I only felt like this as it was a busy lunchtime slot but we felt quite rushed. The host staff were not very friendly really. Seemed a bit fed up to be there on Xmas Eve. Opposed to our table server who could not have been nicer. The food was excellent. As always. Just don’t think the restaurant is nearly as nice as the Leeds one.
