Guests rave about the delightful food, including tempting brownies and refreshing drinks, while many appreciate the outdoor seating by the river. However, service consistency remains an issue, with some patrons facing delays and inattentive staff. Despite this, the warm and friendly atmosphere has earned the venue a loyal following. The unique tower room is particularly praised for its intimacy, making it ideal for gatherings. Overall, Dyl's is a hidden gem worth visiting, though caution is advised regarding service expectations.
I absolutely love this place! We sat in the tower room, which is absolutely stunning. It's very private and quite romantic. We ordered two coffees, a brownie, and a vegan sausage roll. The brownie was more like a ganache, but we still liked it. The vegan sausage roll was delicious and the tomato chutney was really tasty as well. The service was fantastic - friendly, professional, and quick. I definitely plan on coming back again!
We visited this restaurant while in the Bishopgate area of York and enjoyed sitting outside under the heaters. The location next to the river was lovely, and the staff were all very pleasant and professional. We tried the brownies, coffee, and cake, all of which were delicious. We are looking forward to returning and ordering the bacon ciabatta as they looked scrumptious.
We found this restaurant by chance after parking at Clifford's Tower nearby. We went to the top of the tower where there is a round table for about 6 people. The service was incredibly fast and the food was the most delicious we've had in a long time. What a gem! We are looking forward to going back.
Lovely cafe and nice food. Unfortunately we were let down with the service. We were told there would be a 30 min wait but it was actually an hour. When our food arrived, it didn’t arrive at the same time. As in 10/15 mins after each other so we couldn’t all eat at the same time. Overall we were really disappointed and won’t sit in to eat food again.
We were a party of friends meeting for a Sunday brunch. We booked the Tower room for a private gathering. Prior to the arranged date Dyls forwarded a menu and requested we chose our selection of food it's a small kitchen). I am gluten and dairy free with one or two other intolerances. Having looked at the menu I made a choice based on a gluten free option it was not a specific choice). I requested poached eggs on gluten free bread with avocado. I was told that they only do fried eggs after one or two emails it was agreed I would have a gluten free sandwich with avocado and salmon. Unfortunately, on the day I was told that the avocado wouldn't be suitable because it had chillies in it. They therefore said on this occasion they would be accomodating and make scrambled eggs with salmon. Despite the difficulty in liaising with the restaurant over food choices I found on the day the venue was stunning and the service was impeccable and it made for a really lovely get together with friends. May I suggest that in future there could be one or two more choices for free from customers including sweet bakery choices but for those without dietary requirements the food looked gorgeous and my friends were pleased with their choices.
