@ Things to do

The team behind Thor’s tipi bar will once again open their doors on Friday 10th July when they return with their summer operation, Sol Ást.

Hosted at The Principal York Hotel, Sol Ást will be situated in the extensive gardens of the hotel.

A larger, ‘socially distant’ layout will be in operation, with a brand-new table service system.

You’ll be able to pre-order and pre-pay using a mobile phone, reducing the contact and offering service from the comfort of your chair.

Walk-ins will be welcomed, but you’ll also be able to book in groups, making customers feel more at ease when visiting the bar and also giving them the guarantee they will have a space when they arrive.
