A high street with heart.

Welcome to Bishy Road. We’re proud to be a thriving independent high street, with everything from traditional butchers and greengrocers to artisan makers and bakers. With friendly, easy-going vibes and great shopping, dining and drinking, you’ll love spending a few hours – or days – with us.

We’re just a few minutes’ walk from York’s historic city walls. So if you’re in town, don’t miss your chance to stop by. We can’t wait to see you.
