Called here last night for the first time for a bite to eat.nI phoned up to see what time they took food orders until 7.45pm on a Sunday, and decided to dine here for tea.nThe pub is lovely inside and quite spacious. It's clean and tidy. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, which means I felt very comfortable when ordering food even though it was quite late.nI ordered a burger and chips, and my partner ordered duck flatbread. We had a pint of guiness and a pint of pepsi max, total cost was £37.50.nnPortion size was quite small, but I really enjoyed my food and would definitely return. My partner wasn't too keen on his meal. He said the sauce was too overpowering and the duck was dry. His meal cost £16 and he doesn't think it was worth it.nPersonally, I thought the chips were absolutely amazing.nnWe will return because we were made to feel so welcome, and the establishment itself is lovely and clean. Having tried the Black Bull which is across the road I can safely say The Royal George is the best pub in this small village.
I visited Friday 17 February 2024 with my sister and two month old niece for lunch. We popped up from Hartlepool based on the reviews.nnIan was very friendly, professional and helpful and really looked after us, and it was nice to chat with Becky Becci?.nnThe interior is very nicely decorated, warm and comfortable. There is plenty to select from on the menu and a decent kids menu too!nnMy sister ordered the cheese croquettes with pickled onion starter and really enjoyed it. My Burns Night had kind of been ruined by our local Lidl so when I saw haggis on the menu, I got a little excited. It was the nicest haggis I've had in a long time. Sometimes there's a lot of gristle and too much pepper, but this was perfection!nnI had a half parmo for my main, which was absolutely delicious and the chips were unreal! I felt a bit gutted when I saw my sister's lamb shank because even though the parmo was beautiful, I've never seen such a nice piece of lamb served in a pub in twenty years! I had to steal a bit. That lamb was absolutely incredible. I'll definitely be ordering that next time!nnFinished with some jam roly-poly and custard for a bit of 90s school nostalgia. Delicious!nnThey sell Pepsi instead of Coca-Cola, which should be law in the UK! Pepsi is much nicer, so extra bonus points!nnThe food, service and atmosphere were all fantastic and the pricing was very reasonable.nnThe Royal George is a fantastic gastropub, not to be missed and absolutely worth traveling to even if you're 20-30 minutes away, I'd say. I can't wait to go back, as there are quite a few dishes on the menu that I want to try!nnThank you for an amazing dining experience :-D.
First visit to The royal George. There was a large group of us. Friendly bar/waiting staff, gave us loads of time for stragglers to arrive. Excellent choice of beers and lagers. Spoilt for choice on the menu. Opted for the pork belly which was gorgeous. Would highly recommend a visit.
What a great place. Staff incredibly helpful, very friendly. Great service. Sunday lunch was absolutely delicious. My lamb was so tender and tasty. Definitely reccommend this place. Looking forward to our next visit. Parking was a little difficult - but worth it.
Very disappointed in recent visit to the Royal George for a Christmas meal with family and friends. We all chose turkey and trimmings after 1st course which was OK, after waiting 30 mins we were told no Turkey, not been difficult we agreed pork which was extremely hard , no mashed potatoes,just roast , two in the company chose Xmas pudding and custard , not able to eat it ,obviously been in microwave too long don't think I'll go back , it Was one of my favourite restaurants
