Mediocre, overpriced.

£15.90 for a cheese toastie and chips, with half a vinegary lager on the side.

Was initially asked if I wanted to get a pint instead as it would be cheaper on the lunch deal, only to be told I was actually 15 minutes late and couldn’t get the deal. Why suggest it?

When the toastie came, the chips had been forgotten, so I had the sandwich for starter, with chips coming 15 mins later, once I’d finished. No apologies from staff.

The cheese in the toastie was nice, but at £8.75 for a cheese toastie I would expect some presentation, a sauce inside the sandwich, and chips included (rather than a bland and dry side salad with soggy rocket). It looked amateur.

The chips were disappointing, too. Tasted like McCain’s, generic. Served with an empty bottle of mayo.

And lastly, the bathroom stinks of damp.

Disappointed. I expected good things from a Greene King.

Lovely little pub, not too expensive given it's location (about average). The selection of drinks on tap are great. We had small plates for food (even though they are small plates, they were very small compared to other pub small plates). It would be nice to see 1 or 2 extra of whatever food on the small plates. But regardless, nice pub, upstairs is nice.

Enjoyed having a pint with my wife the Dukes of York. Many people are enjoying a pint and smoke outside. The prices of pint was great.

Nice little pub located just off Oxford Street. Great atmosphere and it’s away from the crowds. We popped in to get a beer and use the toilets. Plenty of tables available on a Saturday afternoon. Friendly staff, clean and plenty of character.

The Duke of York, on the corner of Dering Street is a pretty little pub, close to both Oxford and Regent Streets. Part of the Greene king portfolio with all the offerings you would expect in one of their pubs. Lovely staff, offering quick, efficient and friendly service. Dominating the bar is a great spiral staircase leading to an upstairs seating area, looks terrific. Warm, cosy and welcoming!

The food was great, fish&chips were good, but meat pie was ok....the outside was too thick, too filling. The service was great, the staff was friendly, hospitable and nice.
Very nice sports bar. Good atmosphere.

Busy vibrant pub. Came for a quick drink. Large choice of drinks with usual London prices. Service was ok, not really engaging but they were busy.
