Walled Courtyard

About Us

Our passion

Nestled within one of the most impressive timber-framed buildings in York, just a short walk from York Minster, La Piazza Antica is a place where classic Italian dishes, excellent wines and exceptionally friendly service come together to create a delightful and authentic dining experience.

La Piazza Antica features two main dining areas, one overlooking bustling Goodramgate and the other offering the view of our charming courtyard which is open for alfresco dining in the warmer months. If you are looking for a venue for a private event, we recommend booking a cosy first floor room or hammerbeam roof second floor room, both perfect for small parties and celebrations.

Our menus range from delectable classic Italian pizzas and pastas to decadent meat seafood and vegan dishes. Following your main course, our dessert menu offers homemade limoncello panna cotta, creamy tiramisu and many more.

Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner for two, a family gathering, or a night out with friends, our restaurant is the perfect destination. Come and experience the taste of Italy with us!

Xhulia served us and she is so lovely and attentive! The food was delicious, my friend even said it was the best meal she’s ever had. I was very surprised at how cheap the lunch prices were. The 1,2 and 3 course set prices are great. If we’re in York again we will definitely be returning x
