• Reposted from @cityyorkcouncil - Our latest #YorkKind post is from Rebecca who reopened @galtreslodge last weekend:⠀ -⠀ “My fiancé Chris and I took over Galtres Lodge, a small hotel with a restaurant on Low Petergate, as a project in October 2018.⠀ ⠀ We refurbished the bedrooms, parts of the restaurant, and changed the menus to serve home-made British classics using fresh local produce. These improvements received great feedback from guests. Business was looking great and 2020 was supposed to be our year to shine! However, everything stopped in March.⠀ ⠀ We used the closure as an opportunity to tackle some of the refurbishment that was difficult to complete when we were open, such staircases and corridors, and the main part of the restaurant. We have re-branded the restaurant FOREST, after our name which comes from the ancient royal forest of Galtres.⠀ ⠀ During lockdown we started doing takeaway meals, served out of a restaurant window directly on to Low Petergate. This is quite a funny concept, but worked really well. It generated some excellent goodwill amongst locals who appreciated us adapting, and wanted to see independent businesses survive.⠀ ⠀ We are very excited to be open again. We have prepared the building and trained our staff. For the most part, we can take care of almost all our Covid-Safe measures, leaving guests to enjoy their visit. All that we ask of our guests is that tables are booked in advance, and that you remain seated for as much of your meal as possible, leaving us to serve everything to your table.⠀ ⠀ Things might take a little more time, with the extra safety measures, but that just gives guests more time to relax and enjoy the experience!⠀ ⠀ Having worked so hard throughout lockdown, it has really made us realise that you have to find every bit of joy that you can. Simple things like taking walks with the dog, or short bike rides have been great to keep us motivated to keep working. We also have a classic mini which is great fun for a quick drive out in!”⠀ -⠀ #york #YorkKind #onlyinyork #visityork #makeityork #indieyork #cityofyork @galtreslodge @the_york_bid @indieyork

  • @partisanyork on Micklegate - ➡️➡️➡️During lockdown we had time to reconsider how we wanted to move forward as a restaurant. Ethical sourcing, community, quality and nurturing were the aspects that we felt needed to continue to be at the core of our purpose. We have opened the restaurant to a limited capacity, and we won’t be opening in the evening for the time being. However, we would like to continue with our "Partisan at Home" offering once a week . The season is abundant with produce so following the same ethos we had for our evening service we will devise a menu from a list of available produce that Joe from Food Circle gives us each week that include: Fadmoor Organics, Knapton Lane Farm Organics, Rocket & Russet, Grassfruits, The Hillcrest Community Project, Food Circle Polytunnels and Brunswick Nursery. We source our dry goods from Suma or Hodmedods. We grow and pick beautiful herbs and flowers to garnish each dish. We have the passion. ⠀ ⠀ We also try and keep the dishes simple, to avoid too much packaging. This menu has limited availability. We have an ordering system now directly from our website. Go to https://buff.ly/3f7BGYd or the button below, and find within the section Partisan at Home. Collection is on Saturday, or we can deliver in the York Radius for £2 extra. Please let us know if you would like delivery and write your address on the notes. The cut off point for ordering is Wednesday at 2 pm. I cannot promise that we will have enough if you order later than that (very small batches of everything as well) Thank you so much for ordering with us. PLEASE NOTE THAT COLLECTION IR DELIVERY OF THIS MENU IS ONLY FOR THE 11th of JULY. #organicfarming #organicmenu #supportlocal #independentbusiness #smallbatchrestaurant.

  • @bistroguyyork on Gillygate - Hello,⠀ ⠀ It’s with heavy hart I have decided I will not be continuing at 40 Gillygate York. My rent contract finished in March and feel with the current climate its not the right time to be entering into another long rent contract. I would be lying if I said it had not been a roller coaster ride for last 10 Years with putting on Music nights, Theme nights, and Bistro nights from Japanese fusion taster evenings to woodfire pizza and craft beer nights.⠀ ⠀ I really have enjoyed meeting many wonderful people that have supported Bistro Guy with many of them becoming regulars and friends! One customer is even a Godparent to one of my twin boys. I will also hugely miss the wonderful traders of the Fifth Quarter Traders which also have become friends. Please pop down and support these traders as they need it more now than ever before! I have gain many happy and memorable memories which will never be forgotten.⠀ ⠀ The good news is you haven’t got rid of us that easily as we will be bringing the food to you with our wonderful mobile woodfire pizza trailer. We will still continue trading as BISTRO GUY so if you have a private event or know of a village that would appreciate having a visit once a month then please do not hesitate to get in touch by emailing us at info@bistroguy.co.uk.⠀ ⠀ We will be continuing with Friday and Saturday evening collections at the Bistro for woodfire pizza up until 31 July.⠀ ⠀ A big thanks you to everyone that has visited Bistro Guy over the years and supported us because without your support would not have had a business and given employment to so many young people over the years.⠀ ⠀ Please keep following and supporting us, and we look forward to seeing many of you whilst we are bringing the food to you.

  • Reposted from @cityyorkcouncil - As pubs and restaurants get ready to reopen their doors, today's #YorkKind story comes from Kate & Kelly at @pairingswinebar who will be welcoming customers back from tomorrow:⠀ ⠀ “We are sisters and opened the bar on Castlegate in 2015, specialising in pairing wine and food. We come as a pair, hence the name!⠀ ⠀ Our team of 12 employees were furloughed when we had to close our doors in March. During lockdown we started a takeaway and delivery service which proved really popular, so we were able to take two employees back on. We’ve really had to think of ways to diversify our business in order to survive, we introduced corporate virtual wine tastings and wine and food pairing gift boxes for Father’s Day, all of which we’ll continue to offer after we re-open.⠀ ⠀ It’s been a difficult few months both personally and on a business level, but we’ve learnt so much and can’t wait to open our doors again on 4th July. Our safety plans include socially distanced pre-booked tables, bar codes to view menus from your mobile device, sanitation points, daily temperature checks for staff and extra cleaning routines. We’re so excited that we can now have seating outside which will really help as we’ve lost over ½ our covers due to social distancing measures.⠀ ⠀ Kate: Although this time has been incredibly challenging, it’s really made me appreciate the simple things in life. I’ve enjoyed spending time with my two young children during lockdown, discovering local walks and growing vegetables in the garden, so much so we’ve just signed up for our first allotment!”⠀ -⠀ #york #yorkkind #cityofyork #onlyinyork #makeityork #indieyork @indieyork @the_york_bid @yorkmumbler

  • 🌟😃 Tomorrow is the 4th July which UK small business associations have hijacked to rename 'Independents' Day' - it also coincides with many of our member businesses reopening after months of enforced closure and zero income. Zero income when they still have overheads to pay for and families to feed. 🌟 They've worked extremely hard to reach this point, carrying out risk assessments and putting everything possible in place to ensure your shopping experience with them is safe a...nd adheres to government guidelines. They've had to pivot, diversify and adapt extremely quickly to ensure their survival and the plain truth is that some of them won't make it. 🌟 York is fortunate to have a high percentage of independents in our city (65% are independently owned), they make our city all the more colourful and characterful. They are a big part of why tourists visit and local residents are loyal to their favourite shops. Where would we be without the likes of Barnitts of York and Browns Department Stores! 🌟 If there is one thing you do this weekend please visit one of our Indies, it doesn't have to be in person, many offer online shops or deliveries. We've said it before but we'll say it again - 👉 use them or lose them 👈, it's as simple as that.

  • Reposted from @cityyorkcouncil - Today's #YorkKind story is from Alan at @ycsauce who tells us how their design team adapted to respond to the pandemic:⠀ -⠀ ‘’We run a small design studio from York Business Park, Nether Poppleton. Our business provides design, print, website and video production services.⠀ ⠀ On the day before lockdown we decided to work from home. This required investment in additional kit and software to enable us to work and communicate efficiently. The majority of our projects were digital and so we have been able to deliver these remotely. We have also launched a campaign to support local businesses ‘Helping Everyone Get Back to Work’, aimed at providing our design and production experience to businesses as we come out of lockdown.⠀ ⠀ The way that we work has been much affected by the lockdown. Using communications tools such as Zoom, Skype and Microsoft Team have helped us to interact with clients even to the extent of us having the ability to share our computer desktops when presenting and updating clients on their projects.⠀ ⠀ Our photography and videography services have taken a hit due to social distancing, however we are starting to shoot carefully again now.⠀ ⠀ Like so many businesses we have had to adapt the way that we work, moving forward we believe that some of these processes and practices will remain.⠀ ⠀ Like so many families the biggest impact that the pandemic has had on us is our lifestyle. Not being able visit and hug our grandchildren has made the period very difficult. In addition, we created our business in York 4 years ago in order to enjoy more of the City where we live. This is another reason why we want to support local business in getting our local economy back on track.“⠀ -⠀ #york #indieyork #yorkkind #onlyinyork #makeityork #cityofyork @indieyork @the_york_bid

  • Reposted from @cityyorkcouncil - In today's #YorkKind story, Simon from @milliesbishyroad tells us how they have adapted in response to Covid19:⠀ -⠀ “I run Millies Greengrocer on Bishopthorpe Road. We have remained open throughout lockdown, with the introduction of a one way system and extra safety measures.⠀ ⠀ I created an online shop 4 years ago. I am a 4th generation greengrocer and wanted people to be able to decide what to eat that day based on the weather, or what suited that day, like the way people used to shop. The website enabled people to order in the morning for an afternoon delivery in the York area. It took off on a small scale, with about 30 regular customers ordering online a week.⠀ ⠀ As soon as we were told to stay at home, we received over 600 online orders in less than an hour. I had to turn the website off so that we could catch up, whilst also taking 3 days out to adapt and get a new system in place.⠀ ⠀ I also run Simon Baynes Wholesale on James Street that delivered groceries to pubs and restaurants. This business largely stopped overnight, whilst Millies took off. We worked one business into the other, and served Millies online business direct from the warehouse.⠀ ⠀ In the early days we continued to turn the website off to cope with demand. Our 250 orders were often full by 10am. Things have settled down now to about 500 orders per week, as people start to go back out to shop. It is nice to see new customers staying with us.⠀ ⠀ It has been good to see people getting back to traditional values, and having time to be conscientious about where they are buying from. I have friends who are local butchers and fishmongers, and they have all been busy. Supermarkets have 24 hour convenience, but local food shops have quality, taste, fresh locally sourced produce, and a personal service. It will be interesting to see how people choose to shop in the future.⠀ ⠀ Outside of work I am looking forward to some time off with my family, and getting away in our caravan to Scarborough soon.”⠀ -⠀ #york #YorkKind #cityofyork #onlyinyork #makeityork #indieyork #bishyroad #bishyroadyork #greengrocer #greengrocers @bishyroad @indieyork @the_york_bid

  • @pyramidgalleryork on Stonegate - 'Actinia' by @heleneasthamstudio is inspired by Anenomes found on the rocks of the lower shoreline. The shape is an interpretation of the Actinia’s changing form affected by the tides, currents and apatial position it adopts on the rock.⠀ ⠀ 'Actina' is part of our #onlineexhibition⠀ #lifeforms with @contemporaryglasssociety⠀ ⠀ Helen was born, brought up and continues to live in Cornwall. She works from her garden studio, a short walk from the many beautiful beaches of Newquay.⠀ ⠀ Helen specialises in making #sculptural #kilnformedglass #vessels #inspired by nature and the coast. She utilises colours synonomous with the sea, shoreline and coastpath. Her shapes and forms are representative of sandpools, anemones, pebbles and other curious findings she encounters on and between the beaches and land. Her manipulation of colour, shape, and form result in unique art pieces which hold a sense of place with the ability to bring the outdoors indoors.⠀ ⠀ #glassofinstagram #glasssculpture #glassvessel #contemporaryartglass #contemporaryglass #cornishartist #supporttheindependents #supportsmallbusiness #supportthearts #fusedglass #fusedglassartist

  • @supersonicfit on Stonebow - Who doesn’t love a good stir fry? They are quick, simple and easy to make, often super healthy and packed full of veggies!⠀ ⠀ This veggie recipe serves 2, you could add extra protein through tofu, or cashew nuts (I love cashew nuts in a stir fry!) or if you’re a meat eater add some chicken or turkey.⠀ ⠀ Here’s the 'how to'.....to be honest, you could use any vegetables you wanted to in addition to those in the recipe.⠀ ⠀ 1. Add the broccoli to a pan of boiling water and boil until soft but still a bit firm.⠀ 2. Heat the oil in a non-stick wok or pan and then stir fry the peppers, ginger and garlic for a couple of minutes.⠀ 3. Add your protein source (unless cashews) and heat until cooked.⠀ 4. Add the mushrooms and cook for a few minutes.⠀ 5. Then add in the broccoli, and if you're using them, a handful of cashew nuts, with the soy and lemon juice and cook until heated through.⠀ ⠀ Serve with brown or wholegrain rice or rice noodles.⠀ ⠀ #healthyfood #easymeals #stirfry #vegetables #easyrecipes #recipes #healthymeals #homecooking #eveningmeals #tasty #quickmeals #mealtime #healthyeating #yorkgym #gymyork

  • Reposted from @cityyorkcouncil - In today's #YorkKind story, Rob and Anne from @greenvets tell us how they have adapted their services in response to the pandemic:⠀ -⠀ “We opened our veterinary surgery in Acomb last May. At the beginning of the lockdown we weren’t sure if we would be able to stay open, but guidance confirmed that we were an essential service with a duty of care to provide emergency medical services.⠀ ⠀ We made changes to the way we work, postponed routine tasks and prioritised urgent cases. From day one, no clients have been allowed on site. We have been doing consultations over the phone and exchanging animals at a 2m distance in the car park, which can be a challenge in the pouring rain!⠀ ⠀ We are maintaining our usual hygiene standards, as we deal with infection routinely every day.⠀ ⠀ Where an owner would usually hold their pet in the clinic, staff are now stepping in. Telephone consultations take extra time, and some tasks are taking up to four times longer, so our through-put is less.⠀ ⠀ We are at a crossover now where postponed appointments and operations are becoming urgent, and we are very busy catching up with expiring vaccinations. We are a small team, but our two furloughed nurses are now back at work.⠀ ⠀ Most clients understand that we are working very hard, and trust that we are doing the best we can. Please continue to be patient as we all establish a new normal.⠀ ⠀ We work and live on site which makes it easier to social distance. We haven’t had much luck with booking food deliveries, but put on our mask and gloves and go food shopping once a week. We grow our own vegetables, and are going to grow more from now on. The hardest part of the pandemic, alongside running a new business, has been not being able to meet our family and keep them safe during lockdown.”⠀ -⠀ #york #yorkkind #onlyinyork #cityofyork #makeityork #indieyork #independentyork @indieyork @the_york_bid

Now open Sundays 12 noon till 4pm ... might be a quieter weekend option if you'd like to avoid a busy town centre. We hope this all fits well with you all and we'll get to see your faces sometime soon!⠀ ▪h︎⠀ #york #visityork #open #openforbusiness #supportsmallbusiness #shoplocal #shopsmall #gillygate
