Money and Shopping in York


Money and Shopping in York

York comes highly recommended for its unique shops & boutiques. There's the usual range of high-street stores, but York is also a great place if you're looking for tourist tat of the highest order. Tat-central is The Shambles - the narrowest (and most crowded) street in York, with a full range of a present from York - emblazoned merchandise manufactured in the Far East. Shops in York change from year to year but the beautiful old fashioned wooden shop fronts and buildings have not changed much since they were first built.
  • Gillygate and Low Petergate. There is a good range of stores apart from the standard high street, try these for some nice small shops and galleries.
  • Betty's Tearoom. Get a Fat Rascal see below.
  • Browns, Parliament Street. A local good quality department store.
  • Walmgate and Fossgate contain some interesting shops, including several small independent book shops and retro clothes shops.
