Our Story

 

Hidden beneath the historic streets of York, we're an independent Mediterranean tapas bar and restaurant where exceptional food, expertly crafted cocktails, and genuine hospitality come together. Located at 1 Little Stonegate, we serve authentic tapas with a modern twist, inspired by the flavours of Spain and the wider Mediterranean.

Our menus celebrate fresh, seasonal ingredients, from classic small plates and sharing boards to premium wines, craft beers, and signature cocktails. Whether you join us for a relaxed lunch, an intimate dinner, or late-night drinks, we aim to create a warm, vibrant atmosphere that's perfect for every occasion.

When the sun is shining, our rooftop terrace is one of York's most inviting spots for al fresco dining and drinks. Tucked away above the city streets, it's the perfect place to enjoy Mediterranean tapas, cocktails, wine, or a leisurely lunch in the sunshine. Whether you're catching up with friends, celebrating a special occasion, or simply making the most of a warm summer's day, our terrace offers a relaxed setting to soak up the atmosphere.

Whether you're dining in our cosy underground restaurant or enjoying the sunshine on our rooftop terrace, we're passionate about creating memorable experiences through great food, carefully crafted drinks, and genuine hospitality. We look forward to welcoming you to Sotano.
