Looking for a characterful venue to hire in York? Set on King Street overlooking the River Ouse, Corner Grill House can be exclusively hired for celebrations and events, from birthdays and anniversaries to corporate gatherings. Its central location puts it just a short walk from the heart of York, while bespoke opening hours can be arranged to fit around your plans.
Events at Corner Grill House can take several different forms. Organise a formal sit-down meal, opt for a more relaxed sharing-style feast, or create a drinks-led reception with welcome drinks and canapes. Flexible seating arrangements allow the restaurant to be adapted to suit the occasion, while dedicated hosting staff are on hand throughout the event.
Food can be tailored too, with a choice of the regular a la carte selection or bespoke set menus and food and drink packages. Dishes might include lamb kofta or duck liver and orange pate with caramelised onion and sourdough, followed by sea bass with buttery crushed new potatoes or a vegetable plate of seasonal greens, mushrooms and roast potatoes. Steak remains a speciality, with 60-day salt-aged fillet among the options. Homemade sticky toffee pudding and panna cotta provide suitably crowd-pleasing finishes.
A fully stocked on-site bar makes drinks easy to incorporate into the event. Alongside a carefully selected wine list, guests can choose cocktails such as a Kir Royale, Negroni, Bees Knees, Passion Fruit Mojito or Old Fashioned, plus beers, ciders, spirits and soft drinks.
Warm wood panelling, olive-green leather seating, atmospheric lighting and abundant greenery give Corner Grill House plenty of character without requiring much additional decoration. Children are welcome too, with a dedicated kids’ menu making the venue practical for celebrations bringing several generations together.
