The Cittie of Yorke is a grade II listed public house on London's High Holborn, and is listed in CAMRA's national inventory of historic pub interiors.[1]

Although the current building was rebuilt in the 1920s, The site on which it stands has hosted a pub since 1430.[1]

Some features include the Henekey's long bar [2] located in the grand, hall-like back room,[3] a late-Georgian or Regency era triangular metal stove, and Victorian cubicles, which were originally used by lawyers in consultation with clients.[2][3]
