Shambles Kitchen

York


Fast food doesn't mean unhealthy at this hugely popular little takeaway (there are only three tables inside). The place is best known for its pulled-pork sandwiches on sourdough bread, but there are also yummy wraps, daily specials such as Goan curry and Korean chicken, and a choice of freshly made veg juices and smoothies. Food is served from 11am.
