Morgan & York was a specialty grocery and wine store, run by Matt Morgan and Tommy York. The store specializes in smaller-production French wineries, with a reasonable smattering of wines from elsewhere, and is the sole Ann Arbor outlet for wines imported by Kermit Lynch. The front room houses a wide selection of cheeses, meats, bulk olive oil, beers, coffee, and other gourmet foods.
The store was remodeled in the summer and fall of 2014 to move the deli case to the front and to add cafe seating.
In 2019, the name was changed to York Food and Drink, reflecting a change in ownership.

History
The location was formerly the Big Ten Party Store, and the back entrance still shows the Big Ten name. Many in Ann Arbor lamented the name and format changes, which owners Matt Morgan and Tommy York said were necessary to their attempt to save the financially-troubled store, which they purchased in 2001.
