I’m a fan of Thornbridge beers, but reasons I’m not sure of, never really visit the Market Cat.
But a visit with work colleagues at Christmas introduced me to the top floor view, so I had to go again.
And for a pint of arguably the finest cask beer available, Jaipur. Some say it’s “not as good as it used to be”, but I think it still delivers.
The Pacific Ocean Blue didn’t quite hit the West Coast IPA notes I crave.
But the late 80s/early 90s American rock soundtrack did.
Gigantic.
ReplyDeleteCoincidentally we were there last Monday and I also discovered it had a top floor !
My mother in law (I was joint to use 'MIL', to imitate Mumsnet speak that RM likes to slip into his blog, but found it too close to another similar acronym...) lives outside York and I love the city and its pubs, but haven't been to many since having kids. They're older now and I reckon the Market Cat looks just about unpubby enough for me not to feel guilty dragging them in there for a pizza while I have a pint. are some floors more café like rhan pub?
