Banyan Bar & Kitchen on 3 Little Stonegate will be replaced by a glamorous NYC-inspired cocktail bar in November.
The new bar, Manahatta, has undergone a £400K investment and will create 40 new full and part time jobs.
Guests can expect contemporary cool neon signage and stylish peacock blue booths for the perfect Instagram shot.
The bespoke cocktail list has been carefully curated by bar development manager Mark Austin, who has created some of the company’s most popular drinks in his 12 years working for owner Arc Inspirations. Look out for the Thyme Square Cooler, which blends gin with lemon, Fair goji liqueur, grapefruit, thyme and lemonade to create a zesty citrus bomb.
The Manahatta brand is famous for making the most of the weekend with local DJ’s dropping bangers from the last few decades.
Vibrant NY food scene
Those arriving hungry will be able to choose American favourites from the all-day menu. Bestselling dishes include the mighty Empire State Chicken and the Mac Lasagne with slow cooked beef brisket.
Those on a health kick might fancy the Sunshine Powerbowl, which is loaded with avocado, beetroot, turmeric quinoa, sweet potato, pickled onion and other vitamin packed goodness.
Big city brunch
Bottomless brunch is available everyday until 4pm for £27.95 and includes a delicious main and 90 minutes of unlimited Prosecco, Aperol Spritz, Bloody Marys or pints of Coors. Their bottomless party is available from 4pm at £29.95 and includes the same unlimited drinks plus a dish from the dinner menu all soundtracked by the house DJ.
Arc Inspirations CEO, Mark Wolstencroft, had this to say ahead of the launch:
‘’We’ve been blown away by the reaction to the Manahatta brand across Leeds, Manchester and Harrogate and are thrilled to be launching in this historic city. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, dropping in for a business lunch or require something unique for a private event, Manahatta York can deliver.’’
