About Roman Bath
Here is the story of Roman Bath in York so far. It has live music 1 night a week. The notes below sum up what the venue and its listings say.
Roman Bath is a grassroots music venue in York.
Listing notes
The Roman Bath has been known by that name since 1930, when a Roman bath house was found in its basement - the remains are still visible today. Before that the St Sampson's Square pub was called the Mail Coach.
After a six-figure refurbishment in 2025 it hosts a local live band every Friday, with a DJ every Saturday night and a quiz and karaoke on Wednesdays. The refit added a new sound system and a relocated bar, and the pub shows all the major sport.
