I have been to Oscars quite a few times over the years and mainly for meals through places I have worked and I have to say every time I have been I have been impressed.
The food is great and the drinks are reasonably priced and there is plenty of room both upstairs and downstairs and for me its a place that I feel that when I go there I can just chill out relax and unwind.
I would say my best experience was when I went for a meal with my current employers and the meal and drinks were free because we had performed so well at work and I had not been for a bit before then and it was so great to go back and I had such a good time and its a place I always like going to.
The music they play sets the right mood too its not too upbeat and its not too negative its just right which is just what I like.

Was surprised to read a bad review for this bar-suggesting that it gone down hill over 20 years.The opposite couldnt be more true.This used to be a horrible place full of shady looking business types.It is now simply the best all round bar and restaurant I have found in the golden triangle of York-Leeds-Harrogate.The staff are really friendly,knowledgable and well trained. The food is real and simply delicious.The portions are very generous and always made from really good ingredients. Some establishments with similar menus often use cheap ingredients. I can only assume the bad review was written by a jealous competitor.Shame on you!

Compare Oscars to Biltmore (they’re owned by the same people) and it’s like comparing sackcloth to silk.
Yes, if you’ve never been there before it seems funky but after seeing it go downhill over 20 years it’s saddening. The food is good but you wait an age for it, the barstaff look after their own needs rather than the customer and you have to go in the first hour to get a (pricey) ice cold bottle of beer which is disastrous. The bar staff claim that the fridge is not cold enough - well fix it then!
You can always tell sub-standard bar staff if they “fill from the front”. Any decent bar trains its staff to bring the coldest bottles in the fridge (i.e. from the back) to the front and put new bottles at the back to get cold. Not degree level bar management - but beyond these guys.
Summing this bar up - COMPLACENT
Raise your game guys…!!
