A visit to The Shambles is a must, described by some as resembling "Diagon Alley" from Harry Potter, this is a shopper's delight. The Shambles is an old street with overhanging timber-framed buildings, some dating back as far as the fourteenth century.
The Sidings
Founded in 1985 by an ex-railwayman with a passion and enthusiasm for all things connected with railways, The Sidings is built around 5 Pullman style railway carriages located in the outskirts of York. These have been developed to create the ultimate railway experience.
Part of the carriages have been sympathetically converted into a dining area while keeping the look and feel of the original carriages. Allowing some tables to overlook the track.
Enjoy an Afternoon Tea including sandwiches, mixed platters, cakes and scones with tea and coffee in these beautiful surroundings.
