Spark:York is a place that looks and feels like no other venue in York. It's a vibrant, relaxed place to eat and drink, with kids or without. A community of small businesses created from old shipping containers, Spark:York has a welcoming atmosphere and diversity of eating, drinking and shopping experiences that make it a popular destination. There's a changing rota of pop-up bars and restaurants, but if you imagine craft ales, edgy cocktails and the best street food in town, you're not too far from the mark. The relaxed vibe makes it an easy place to take kids, but it's also popular with adults for a night out or a cheeky daytime drink with friends.

Although it's open to the elements, there's a temporary cover and heaters during colder months, making it a good option all year round. If you're lucky, you can find a spot on the roof terrace on a warm sunny evening and soak up the rays. Lovely.
