Roots (restaurant)

Roots is a restaurant on Marygate, just north of the city centre of York in England.

In 2007, the brewery proposed converted the building into an office with flats above; however, it instead reopened as a pub in 2008.

[1][2] In 2018, chef Tommy Banks and restaurateur Matthew Lockwood converted the building into a restaurant, named "Roots", which focuses on local produce and self-sufficiency.

All three bays of the Marygate front are gabled; there is a half-octagonal tower at the right-hand side, and a central porch with a round arch.

Original features include the bar and two timber fireplaces, one of which has a carved panel above depicted a bay horse and dated 1898.
