"York station is a destination all by itself. The curved iron and glass roof, built on a sweeping 800-ft bend to navigate the medieval city walls, is one of the finest pieces of Victorian railway engineering in Britain and worth a few minutes before boarding your train. For drinks before your train, the York Tap is one of the best station pubs in the country – a beautifully restored Victorian tea room now serving an excellent range of craft ales. Just across the road, Thor's Tipi offers a great selection of street food in a unique outdoor setting – well worth a visit if you have time before departure."
