We dropped in here early on a Friday evening after the cafes around the market square had closed for the day. We were after a simple cup of coffee, and they were able to quickly oblige, good value for money, with a cheaper rate if you have a 2nd cup, which was a nice touch. We had a scan of the menu, the food is a bit more expensive than other local rival pubs in town, and the dining room area is maybe a bit more formal, but there were a good range of main course offerings in the £15-20 range. This was a former coaching horse inn, a handy stopover heading north from York in the olden days, and this probably accounts for the rambling layout. It is a hotel with bedrooms available. A good bar w...
We celebrated our anniversary at this charming pub with a great menu and daily specials board. The young man who waited on us was very friendly and helpful. We started with the Tomato and Basil soup, served with a warm bread roll and butter. For my main course, I chose the roast dinner with beef, Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, and gravy. I wish there had been a small jug of extra gravy on the side. The vegetable medley included beans, cabbage, broccoli, sliced new potatoes, and small carrots, which my husband and I shared. He ordered the BBQ chicken dish with mashed potatoes and vegetables. We were too full for dessert, but my husband enjoyed a latte and I indulged in an Irish coffee, wh...
Visited as a couple 7 March. We were staying in the hotel. Ambience was good. The eating area could perhaps do with a bit of updating but it is fine. Menu is a mix of pub classics and more adventurous dishes. I had one of the latter as a starter, Lamb Tagine Roll with harissa mayo and smoked aubergine purée. Very good. The roll had chunks of lamb and the mayo had a kick. Tasted and presented very well. I had steak and ale pie for main. Appeared home made with real chips. Again very good Mrs W had the pork belly which she enjoyed too. We had a very nice bottle of NZ Sav Blanc as well. Very good value.
I met up with family members for lunch at this restaurant during the middle of the week. We had been once before and were very impressed with the food and service, so we knew we had to come back. Our second visit was just as delightful as the first. The homemade food was delicious, made with fresh and high-quality ingredients. The hot drinks were served at the perfect temperature and came with tasty biscuits. We received a warm welcome and great service. I think we will definitely have to come back for a third visit at some point because it's just too nice to resist!

Random choice for lunch, as we were cold and hungry. We were moved, by the staff, to a larger table, for our comfort! Excellent service. We ordered half size meals, couldn’t even finish them. Much impressed by lots of fresh vegetables, and a massive portion of fish. I think we will be back here again, very friendly staff, good service and great food at a reasonable price.
Had a meal, which was spoilt by the cheese board, having frozen date and fig salami. What made it worse, was one of my friends queried this, and the young lad, behind the bar, said it's supposed to be frozen!!!! I gather, it was supposed to be spreadable. This young lad, then proceeded to kick the kitchen door, in front of all, to see. His attitude, was appalling.
This is our fourth visit to the George. So pleased that someone recommended this hotel to us. Good food, clean and comfortable rooms and hospitable service makes it a winner for us. The icing on the cake I am reliably informed by himself is the well kept ale! Role on visit number 5
This restaurant is a hidden gem that must be shared! Although we want to keep The George a secret because it is so special, it is important to spread the word about how fantastic it is so that the chef can continue to craft incredible dishes for us to enjoy.

We stopped for Saturday lunch after shopping in the town. The warm cosy setting oozes old world charm. Service was prompt and helpful. The meals were well cooked and nicely presented. We've been before and we shall certainly return.
Called in for lunch on spec. Nice, warm and comfortable. Good welcome and excellent menu both full meals and lighter bites. Good pleasant service and overall an excellent experience.
