My favourite local pub just for a relaxing drink or a reasonably priced reasonable meal
First time I had been there - such generous helpings - simply delicious
Really nice pub, there was alot of wasps in the garden though, maybe they need to phone pest control and give them a free pint or something to sort it out.
I enjoyed a beer in here on several occasions. But today was Sunday lunch. Busy rural pub 15 mins south of Reading. Car park packed and only able to park on the road.
Absolutely superb. Friendly staff, swift service - despite the crowd. And very high quality food. I enjoyed the G&D burger - absolutely fabulous and Mrs B had the roast beef (Medium Rare) - described as “the best roast beef I have ever had……that I haven’t cooked”. And she knows a good roast beef. High praise indeed. All washed down with some decent Merlot. All in all very very good for about £60. Highly recommended.
Brilliant food and drink, lovely atmosphere, dog friendly, excellent service. Would highly recommend!
This was my first visit since the George & Dragon was acquired by the Siren Brewery and what a pleasant surprise from my previous visit. It has a lovely atmosphere and the staff were welcoming and friendly. The food was excellent. I had the pea and ham soup and the other diner had the rarebit, which she said was the best she had ever had. I had the ribeye steak with burnt onion butter as my main and the steak was cooked to my liking and was very tender, the burnt onion butter was delicious. The other diner had the venison, which again, was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be visiting again.
Down from Scotland to visit my friend who was also having a Christmas dinner with her Horse yard friends . What a lovely place the George and Dragon is from arriving got a lovely table in a corner eating alone as my friend was in a large Xmas group fabulous staff all three that served me deserve Gold stars served me with relaxed confidence which allowed some banter and fun between myself and the two lads and lovely lass who I asked to recomend a beer I had Siren momento. Delicious smooth and worked well with my food. Harrissa paste / pesto Aubergines and Pilsner battered fish and chips and just to have me rolling out a delicious Apple and blackberry’ crumble. And custard all this topped off with a great coffee .
Don’t hesitate drive out relax enjoy.
Thanks guys.
Can’t recommend this pub enough! Our first visit and very impressed, wonderful food which is locally sourced, tasty Siren beer and all reasonably priced. Staff very friendly and lovely atmosphere. Their set menu is great, we had the flash rump steak for main and was the tastiest we have had for a while! Cannot wait to return!
Food was nice but dishes were a bit basic for the price unless you paid for extras which then worked out expensive. Some of the portion sizes were a bit small. Service was good and I would have left a tip but it was already added to the bill which I feel is wrong as should be up to the customer and dependant on how good the service is.
What a great find! A cosy pub with incredibly friendly staff.
Popped by as another local pub we went to weren't serving food and the other half was starving.
George & Dragon had stopped serving food too but very kindly said they'd do some chips for us. Which was amazing!
They went above and beyond.
Highly recommended and we will be revisiting.
Great atmosphere and lovely secluded garden. Great selection of very tasty food and drinks at reasonable prices, staff were smiley and friendly - made us feel really welcome. We will be back soon!
The best Sunday roast for miles around, and brewery fresh beer on cask, keg and in bottles. Highly recommend Broken Dream on cask!
