Plans have been lodged to put signs bearing the US coffee chain’s name and branding on the Bay Horse, in Main Street, following the appeal decision in August.
Plans stated that the revamp would include fitting the pub out with Starbucks’ green and white Siren logo.
It comes after a Government planning inspector overturned York Council’s refusal of plans for a coffee shop and three flats lodged after it closed in early 2023.
The pub closed following a period of poor trading, according to plans for the conversion.
Plans to turn it into a coffee shop and flats were refused on the grounds that it would result in the loss of a local pub.
But the planning inspector ruled there was no realistic prospect of a pub reopening in the building following its sale by previous owners Red Cat Pub Company.
