Hotspot of the Week: The Cantina York

Looking for good food and drinks, a fun atmosphere, and friendly service? The Cantina York is your spot. This restaurant and bar is located in the heart of the Royal Square District in downtown York. They serve up good food, fun times, unique drinks, and live entertainment.

Atmosphere

The first thing you notice is the Miami-esque atmosphere. The decor is colorful, vibrant, and fun. The walls are covered in murals and eclectic artwork. The booths are painted bright colors that compliment the artwork and decor. The fun continues outdoors in the warmer months with ample seating outside, too, including a separate outside bar. Enjoy the outside bar, murals, and May through October.

Food

The food menu is small but everything is delicious. The tortilla chips, salsa, and guacamole are homemade and hard to put down! The menu includes tacos, burritos, and burgers with a Mexican twist. We recommend the sirloin tacos with pickled onions, Korean tofu tacos as an amazing meatless option, the chicken and chorizo burrito, and the poblano burger. Really, everything is great! If you are craving some Cantina York, but don’t want to leave the house. No fear, you can order from Grub Hub.

Drinks

The drinks will not be outdone by the food. Spicy Miami margarita anyone? If you are into savory drinks, then you won’t be able to say no to this margarita with jalapenos and jalapeno simple syrup. More of a sweet drink person? Check out the Sub Loco made from glitter-infused blueberry vodka mixed with butterfly pea tea and passion fruit nectar. They also have many beers on tap and a full bar to make you whatever you are craving.

Entertainment

The only way this place can get better is by having live entertainment. The Cantina York regularly hosts live music and DJs on the weekends, even in the colder months. Grab a bite, fill your glass, and get on the dance floor… or enjoy the entertainment from a comfortable seat.
