On the Grid : Forty Five Vinyl Cafe

"Forty Five is a charming cafe which retails quality LPs as well as a selection of beverages. Rustic furniture, comfy sofas and a turntable make Forty Five a quality location for a quiet drink while watching the city life hum by. It hosts regular evening events, including music quizes and intimate live shows. This small cafe is gaining momentum as one of York's new generation of remarkable music venues. Wall space is dedicated to a gallery for contemporary artists to display and sell their work. While it's fair to say that the menu is limited, the music-named toasties served are top notch comfort food, using ingredients unlikely to be in your fridge. Children are welcome during the day, and high chairs are available for the littlest ones. Forty Five is already gaining cult status in York, therefore standard band merch such as tshirts and tote bags are available to purchase. Stop by for a moment to break up your commute, or make an evening of it to enjoy the chilled vibe and new music." - Abell Design

Lovely owner, wonderful multifunctional space. They were setting up for some live music but made time to chat to us. Fully recommend. Great choice of drinks from coffee, tea, iced teas, cocktails & bottles alcohol (including a range of 0%/low alcohol) Plus an array of vinyl to browse & buy. Definitely want to come back again to try some food. Plenty of vegetarian & vegan options!

A brilliant, dog-friendly (think vodka sponsored dog bowls!), quirky & uniquely themed café not far from the city centre & well worth the walk. Delicious toasties with lots of veggie/vegan options available & the smoothie we had was so good we ordered another. Great music & memorabilia - You can even buy vinyl here. Very welcoming owner & staff - would come back to York just for this place! Thank you - we will return

Stumbled across this gem as we walking into the city centre from the NCP carpark & our accommodation for the night. Love vinyl so it was appealing from the off set. We had a latte which was really good. They had music playing & it gave the place a great atmosphere. So the next morning we called in for a toastie & that did not let us down. Didn't really look at the large selection of vinyl records as it was starting to fill up & we were pressed for time. If I'm every back in York (I will be) then this will definitely (maybe) bet the place for a coffee & a quick bite.

Came upon this cafe by accident as it's a little away outside the main tourist areas of York. Music based cafe with an emphasis on Country Music although the background music was from all types. Great atmosphere and the staff were very friendly. Coffee was average but our toasted sandwiches were great. Would happily visit again.

My favourite cafe in York. The cheese toasties are absolutely delicious, in fact so is everything they sell. The atmosphere is so relaxed but also friendly and they play amazing music due to it being a vinyl cafe! I have been coming here for many years now and hope it stays thriving for many more years!

Fantastic place to visit, loved the interesting music related decor and whole atmosphere of the cafe. We attended a music bingo night and had a fun time. The owners were great hosts and had put on a fab event. There is a good selection of drinks available, alcoholic and non-alcoholic. I would also highly recommend the grilled cheese sandwiches. We had the all-day breakfast and smokestack lighting sandwiches, and they were delicious.

Had an absolutely fantastic evening here watching Tom Bright play all his latest music. Didn't eat here so can't comment on the food. Excellent venue for an intimate gig tho.

Been coming here for years and so glad we got to come in today before we move away. Best toasties you'll try and such a good price! Had smoothies which were in a pint glass and ended with cake and Bailey's hot chocolate, all of it was lush and such a good price! Brilliant music, brilliant atmosphere and so chilled out! Will miss this place so much, bought many local bands vinyls and when we come back to visit family we will absolutely come back! Thank you for many years of delicious toasties and good vibes!
