Stone Roses Bar in King Street received the honours at the Thwaites Hospitality Awards 2024, in a ceremony in Penrith on Sunday (November 10).
Some 140 businesses were in attendance on the night, which saw Stone Roses Bar walk away with the best innovation and pub of the year prizes.
For almost 20 years, Stone Roses has traded in York and played an active role in its nightlife.
Speaking on what made the Indie Britpop themed bar receive national acclaim, Gregg Bray, owner and founder, said: "The innovation award is for constantly evolving and keeping up to pace with changing styles and music.
"The big one is pub of the year award, it's huge."
He said that the longstanding bar has been a family affair, co-owned by his wife Sharon, and managed by his son Joel.
"We're independent, there's another one in Leeds which is similar to us but we're the original," Gregg added.
