Ate O Clock Description
Kenny Noble, one of York's well known chefs, opened Ate O Clock in September 2005 and in a span of a few years, turned it into a restaurant people love to visit. The refuge can be found nestling down an alley in the heart of York; step in and you'll discover a relaxing atmosphere made lively by eagles, clocks all set to 8 o'clock, and film sets in the toilets!
The service is considered to be a special feature - warm and personalised - making customers return to sample more of the Mediterranean cuisine. The chef uses local produce to create a range of mostly homemade food. You'll notice recognisable dishes with interesting variations but made to your liking.
The regularly changing menu could include starters of guinea fowl terrine, Thai spiced fishcake with tomato coulis, and seafood risotto, and mains of Yorkshire lamb loin with fondant potato and mint pesto, and sea bass fillet with salmon mousse.
Desserts take in chocolate pannacotta and lemon meringue mascarpone cheesecake. The wine list embraces numbers from around the world.
Fixed Dinner
- £15 (3 courses), early evening, Tues - Thurs

Tracy Robinson (21 August 2009)
My husband and I had lunch at Ate O' Clock today and we could not fault it. We chose from the special lunchtime menu, which is served from 12 pm – 2 pm, Tuesday to Friday. The restaurant is reached via a fairly long alley but the restaurant itself is nice and welcoming, although the music was a bit too loud for me. My husband had mushroom soup with cheesy toast followed by the Thai fishcake, while I had the duck pâté also followed by the Thai fishcake. The food was wonderful and the staff were friendly, cheery, and helpful. This we chose from the not so extensive, £8.80 per person menu, and we thought it was really good value for money. We'd definitely pay Ate O' Clock another visit next time we're in York.

We have just returned after spending the Bank Holiday weekend in York. Our trip was a memorable one made all the more special after our pre-booked meal at Ate O Clock on Saturday evening. The restaurant was reached down a small alleyway off the main drag of shops, whilst the alley was very quaint in the evening it looked a little tired in the day. The ambience as soon as you open the door to the restaurant and welcoming décor is perfect. We received a very warm welcome when we arrived and were shown to our table within 5 minutes although the restaurant was fully booked. The food couldn't be faulted and we both agreed is amongst the best tasted on our many trips away. The complementary bread, raspberry and black pepper, and small tureen of soup was a lovely touch. My husband also particularly liked the idea of his main course of beef cooked in 3 different styles. I had a chicken and mushroom dish which was perfect and we enjoyed the cheese soufflé to start. We had 2 bottles of wine, brandy and a coffee, which came with parkin cake, for just over £70 which shows, as well as being a great place to eat it's also good on price. We'll definitely go again to eat and have already started to tell our friends what a hidden gem it is.
