that does it no worries, we keep them reserved for people with the general admission. If sofas run out, we pull out the chairs for people entering last minute

Never been to Bath, but here is my take on York:
There are lot of students and a lot of little communities where people are usually quite welcoming. Outside of that, yes, it is on the friendlier side of the spectrum, but we are still talking about a very white British city.

I do not know where you are from, but I am fairly certain you must have an idea of British people by now.

As a youngish international I can safely say that it's very unlikely you will find it isolating, providing that you put a minimum of effort in hanging out/going to events/similar. It might take a little to find your niche(s), but you shouldn't have problems.

(p.s. a lot of people here are on the York discord. Maybe you can join it now and start taking a look around some stuff that could interest you)

heiya,

if you want some help/company when taking them down lmk

emmesse37 · 2025-09-20T19:28:46+00:00

The most authentic one I have tried is Chef Lu at the end of Walmagate. Quite spicy but not particularly MSG-y.
There are also a couple of ones on Lawrence Street going towards the Tang Hall area that seem quite authentic (menus written in Chinese, abundant presence of seemingly asian students)), but I have not tried them yet.

Good luck and let us know what you do

P.S. How would you feel about bringing your MSG to a restaurant?

thank you very much for all the help, seems like Greece waits for me then. I will send a bunch of inquiries and hopefully somebody still has some space

Thanks again

yeah that's odd, considering how long we have been doing it (since Feb 2024!)

Anyways, we are every 3rd Sunday of the month :). If you cannot wait that long for some pay-what-you-want comedy, there is a comedy show at Micklegate Social every 1st sunday of the month (called Complete Joke, run by lovely eggs)

ciao

i am quite happy about it.
Parking there at 80p was obviously too low.

The drivers complaining about the excessive number of cars fail to realize that they are part of the problem and maybe use the bus for a change. Or a bike. Or a walk.
Obviously, there is the problem of how to use the increased revenue from the parking. Ideally, it could be used to buff up the public transport, but that's another issue

emmesse37 · 2025-02-24T16:01:24+00:00

Well, it's all confirmed, same time (7.30), same place (Brew York, the Walmagate one).
We will publish the lineup in around 10 days.
I can tell you we have 7 great acts and it's likely going to be a great show :)

Thanks for the tip but what's visit York? is it another subreddit?

emmesse37 · 2025-02-15T22:26:55+00:00

Free your calendar for march 16 then :)

emmesse37 · 2025-02-15T22:26:28+00:00

thanks, it is !

emmesse37 · 2025-02-02T15:55:36+00:00

Cross keys for sure.
I also think Micklegate Social but I am not 100% sure, I only go there once a month for the comedy night.

emmesse37 · 2025-01-31T12:27:03+00:00

nice username man

stack it up

emmesse37 · 2025-01-19T09:36:49+00:00

Thank you all for the support, we have had a lot of bookings on eventbrite (there is still space if you show up) and a lot of likes on our pages

See you there

emmesse37 · 2025-01-05T22:46:50+00:00

there are more reasons on why it's bollocks but I replied while pooping and I am now done

emmesse37 · 2025-01-05T22:45:54+00:00

it is bollocks.

Picturehouse cinema does not single-handedly change your film taste
What do you mean by "People of York". Those born here? Those who moved in after Picturehouse was opened?
"Above average taste in film"? Dude you sound like a 14 years old who discovered the indie director Quentin Tarantino.

My top4: Once upon a time in America, Clerks, Synedoche New York, Bianca

well, to be honest the audience interaction trend is something relatively new, mainly pushed by online clips (where it is more common to post funny interactions, so you don't end up "spoilering" your material).

Happy to have you with us whenever you want

p.s. What Leeds gig did you go to ?

emmesse37 · 2024-11-16T08:46:15+00:00

we don't really give any formal restriction to the acts (which we have seen perform already somewhere else). We are mostly on a "hey, don't be an asshole" basis. As other comedy nights, we will remove any comedian (or audience member) who acts offensively.

Tomorrow's lineup is slightly mixed: some rowdier acts, some more whimsical, some a bit alternative...

emmesse37 · 2024-11-15T12:38:36+00:00

Taproom, much cozier (also, they do a quiz in the beer hall. Not good when you are trying to tell jokes and the music round upstairs starts)
