Oozing with old London charm - genuine old London not fake - places like this become ever harder to find.
I've been coming here since the early eighties so all that's changed are the prices! It's not cheap, but it's a treat.
The food looked fine, but we were just passing through.
The courtyard takes you back to Shakespeare's times, or the London of Oliver Twist. But like all of London, raise your eyes to the skies and the Shard sits nearby just to drag you back to the 21st Century.
The best drinking hole in South London staff are perfect back in a months time
Built in 1864 as a large hotel, the old George Tavern welcomed guests from all walks of life to London’s Isle of dogs. And despite it being remodeled in 1932, The George of today is no different. As one of the few remaining pubs on the Island. There are delicious food, cask and craft ales, premium and spirits, fine wines and heated beer garden. The steak and caramelized onion sandwich with cheese sauce, served with rich beef gravy, is a truly fantastic and delicious menu option. I absolutely love it. Every bite is exquisite, with tender and flavorful beef. The atmosphere inside is as cozy as being at home, and the potato chips are also excellent.
A very nice pub with old architectures in a great location
It’s great for drinks and snacks, but we went for dinner which wasn’t what we expected.
The menus looked great,,but the actual food looked and tasted like microwave food or cooked from frozen except for macaroni and cheese.
I had a chicken house salad and the chicken was dry and might have been cooked in a plastic bag.
When we walked in, we saw people being served a huge plate of fish and chips,but when ours came, it didn’t look no where as nice as that. There might have been a change of shift and a different cook was in charge.
There was only one person serving the entire restaurant upstairs and we had to be patient.
Despite the disappointing food, we enjoyed our drinks and the ambience.
We came here to eat but being from the US, it was hard to tell what we had to do. You order at the bar and they bring you your food by your table number. The bar was busy so we just had drinks and left. The atmosphere is nice, the outside seating was nice, but we did have panhandlers who kept bothering us. Hope you have a better experience but we couldn't speak about the food because we didn't have any. Thank you anyway, George.
There were 3 outdoor screens - the lighting was cute and the view of The Shard was phenomenal. The staff were super friendly and the ambiance was buzzing with laughter and chat.
Went back 2 days in a row to try some of the food and the mushroom something (pictured) was honestly the best dish I’ve had my entire life
They also have some beer on tap that is local and so flipping cheap I forgot I was in London
Wow what a pub! Great vibe and quite busy on a Saturday afternoon. Skews party pub. Some amazing history and some cool old rooms inside. Both indoor and outdoor seating was great. Staff kept up with the madness. An awesome place to stop for a pint.
Food was great, very old and historic pub with wonderful atmosphere and very popular so it was a little crowded and we had a table reserved. There was plenty staff milling around but a little bit of wait to order drinks or food. would be nice to see a separate food ordering or table service. nice little selection of drinks and the real ale was bang one. Happy to eat there and drink again
Perfect Location near London Bridge. They have indoor and outdoor seats which were great. The food was delicious, a bit pricey but it is in central. Place was a vibe as well.
The George in London is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and cozy atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, and the service is top-notch. The menu offers a fantastic selection of traditional British pub food, and the quality is outstanding. I highly recommend trying their fish and chips – the fish is perfectly cooked and the batter is light and crispy. The pub itself has a great character with its classic decor and charming ambiance. It's the perfect spot to relax, enjoy a pint of their impressive selection of beers, and soak in the local vibe. Whether you're a local or a visitor, The George is an absolute must-visit in London
Classic pub, definitely a must-try but not necessarily the best of the best in my opinion. Was fairly busy on a Thursday night (granted, there was the rugby on). The outdoor area is quite nice, but the back building genuinely just smelled like urine, it was a but nauseating to wait for a drink. To top that, the bartenders were fairly cold and took their time to take our orders. I didn't have any food, but my friends said it was alright!
Absolutely incredible pub. The food was amazing and I genuinely was stuffed. I highly recommend the fish and chips as well as the burger. The chicken Kyiv was fresh and moise which was amazing. Our server was incredibly attentive and friendly. He could tell we were interested in the history of the pub and brought us an info sheet as well as told us a bit about the area. It was great food, great people, and I will definitely be back with family and friends who come to visit me in London.
