The brunch fills the room, but Rise. is one of York's few food-led spots where the coffee holds its own. Go for the eggs benedict and don't skip the espresso.

Fossgate's busiest brunch room, where the coffee earns its keep.

Node Coffee★★ Specialty

The owner knows the beans and will say so. Multiple brew methods, retail bags worth buying, and the regulars talk about them.

Le Specialty Coffee★★ Specialty

Filter coffee with fruit tasting notes that the sourcing justifies. One of the few places in York where specialty on the door means something in the cup.

Kiosk Cafe★★ Specialty

A kiosk counter on Fossgate running more roasters than most York cafes with actual rooms. V60 and espresso rotating with whoever's on.
