Absinthe Pub and Coffee Shop Reviews

Do carry your student ID. Nice place and food was nice.

Although only accessible if you're a student of York or with one of the students, it's still a very nice bar. The drinks are averaged priced and the food isn't too bad at all. The atmosphere is nice and the music is good. It's managed by the students and has a very nice atmosphere to it.

Really cozy place to grab drinks after study. Friendly student staff.

In order to get into this pub you must be a York student or be accompanied by one. To confirm that, you need your student ID. I am not sure if this is all day or if they impose stricter rules towards the late evening.

Whatever food I've had has also been pretty good. They have a large variety of beers on tap for a small pub.

They have a patio, of course only open for the summer.

This place does a lot of open mic nights and music nights.

Overall a very social atmosphere, I would definitely come back with a group of good friends.

Fantastic venue to see local student bands, hang out and get a pint, or just get some studying done.

Wonderfully quaint student pub. Great for drinks and hang outs. The food isn't particularly great. But the ambiance is pretty good.

Most importantly, the bagel and bread taste good. Unfortunately, there's a lack of labels and information. I wasn't sure if the food there is free of preservatives or the type of bread on the shelves.Definitely going to come back again!

Nice serve, nice environment. What more could you ask for?

A wide selection of drinks and tasty food.

There's a patio with benches, although it seems to be closed most of the school year due to snow - thanks Canada.

Dart boards and frequent themed/event nights to keep you entertained!

The ab was my second home during the first few years of my undergrad - pull up a chair!

Good place to relax and socialize. It also has a great music selection. Food is decent but could be a little cheaper given some of the portion sizes.
