    Awful
    business
    The owner is on a power trip, our drunk friend got attacked by him when he wouldn't leave so we were talking to him, saying we thought he was being way too aggressive, and then suddenly, it all turned ugly out of nowhere from him and he went for my female friend and was dragging her out of the bar by her hair, and i don't drink so don't worry i wasn't under the influence. it was horrible and i never want to see anything like that again and this place should receive the punishment it deserves.

    The Only Gay Bar In The Village (nearly)
    business
    Unless you count the York Arms, the Littlejohn is the only "gay friendly" bar in York.Its recently had a makeover and looks more like a small nightclub.Theres a video jukebox and they have recently started doing (rather good) meals.Like most pubs in York it can be slightly dull during the day but almost too lively at night! Monday not much happens but Tuesday is Quiz Night and Thursday is karaoke.The owners are friendly and the crowd is usually great fun but on Saturdays it can get invaded by geezers (shaved head, shirt out of their trousers) or hen parties so I give it a miss. Sunday night is usually the busiest.

    Been there a few times. Staff are always friendly, the drinks are well priced and it's a nice little pub. I'd recommend it to anyone. Even been in with my straight mates and they like it.
