    Packed too many people in, food below average, service well below average, just being greedy taking too many bookings, not a good experience!

    We had a great table, which I had requested. The staff were very good and the service also good. We all enjoyed the food, I especially enjoyed the Baileys Brûlée 😋 The only slight negative would be the cost of drinks (ie mulled wine £8.50!) but maybe I’m a little out of touch. None of us had been to the George in a very long time but were so impressed we will no doubt be going again soon. Thank you.

    Pork belly was excellent and others enjoyed soup of the day (tomato and courgette) and squid starters. The only disappointment was a macchiato with a lot of foam but less than one mouthful of coffee. Out of a mix of starters, mains and puddings for 7 people, this was pretty negligible. A really great meal with friendly staff in a nice, calm setting. Would highly recommend.

    We all enjoyed our meal which was served by a very friendly South African lady. We recommend the pork belly or steak and ale pie, both of which were delicious. A lovely old pub in a quiet village with good car parking. Overall an excellent experience.

    A lovely presented and great tasting roast. The beef had run out so we had chicken and pork, sharing pigs and the most delicious cauliflower cheese. Staff were helpful but not intrusive or hurrying. Relaxed traditional country pub serving elevated food that looked every bit as good as it tasted.

    Excellent roast dinner lovely staff and lovely pub the only thing I would have changed was maybe cooking the vegetables more as they were very hard (I know a lot of people prefer it like that but I don't)
