O'Neill's - York

Oniells was great, until we met the doorman on the way out! We had a great time inside, with no issues. The venue itself is great, nice big screen with football on and we stayed for a good hour. Our troubles didn’t start until we left, where we were met with the most racist and obnoxious doorman. As we went to leave, I asked the doorman for a high five. Immediately he said no, which is fine, but then when questioned by other people in our party, decided to loose his mind. There was a heated argument which he made several derogatory comments to my friends and wife. I didn’t like his response so decided to pull him up, which ended in us having an even more heated conversation! My friend told me to leave it, so in the best interest of the situation I did, even though I was still angry at his conduct. My wife was still stood near him and had a conversation about it only being a high five and his exact words to my wife were “you white people think you’re so privileged”!! At this point she turned around and walked away as she knew this guy was racist and was in absolute shock he would say something like this. We’re more offended about the racist comment than anything, as if it was the other way round, I’m sure this doorman would have radioed for the police and we’d all be getting locked up for racism. Pub was great, doorman is racist and offensive and needs investigating!

Excellent venue, I’ll definitely be visiting again. The bar staff were exceptionally good as were the door staff. For food I would recommend the pepperoni pizza to eat with a nice pint of Guinness

Great pub, plenty of screens to watch sports. Plenty of drinks to choose from. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
