Pink, which sits next to sister bar The Impossible WonderBar and Restaurant on the corner of St Helen's Square, has been open for close to two years and is set to launch their latest concept: Momo x Pink from August 30.

On Yorkshire Day York businesses were given a taste of the new menu, put together by chef Lee Tunnington, along with a range of new exclusive themed cocktails celebrating all things Pink.
Lee has been brought on board from Forage in Little Stonegate, which sadly closed last month, and says he can't wait for people to get to try his creations.

Business development manager, Jack Vanston, said: "Pink is such an amazing space - it's a really unique venue.
"We know our customers love the cocktails and now we are adding food to our repertoire we're hoping it will bring in couples and friendship groups."

Impossible York is owned by Manchester-based Tokyo Industries, with a hotel, roof terraces and they opened their restaurant, bar and tea room, in the old Carluccio’s site in St Helen’s Square, back in December 2020, bringing a new drinking and dining experience across the historic building's three floors.
It features a ground floor tea room and brasserie and opulent first floor cocktail bar.
