George Hotel in Derbyshire Dales - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Called in on off-chance of Sunday Lunch on a bank Holiday weekend. Luckily a table was available although quite a lot were reserved - good sign. Chose the lamb. Wasn't disappointed. Roasties were best I've had in a long time - crisp but fluffy. Mash was smooth + tasty. Squishy yorkshire pud - just as I like them. Veggies came separately, actually had flavour (unlike supermarket stuff). All served with plenty of gravy in a jug, and a pot of mint sauce. Couldn't fault anything. Reasonably priced + staff v friendly. Only thing is you can't mix + match the meats like at a carvery - but that's just being nit picking of me. All produce locally sourced according to the menu. Unfortunately I didn't have room for a pudding - maybe next time!

Absolutely love visiting The George when we stay at Pommie. Been visiting this pub for the last 15 years or so . Always good food and Great staff . Keep up the good work!!.

Definitely never again! Called in just after 6pm after a long journey, we were informed quite rudleyby a braced bar man, that food stopped at 6pm. Gave benefit as this pub had been recommended so returned the following evening at 4.10. We were informed by young polite bar man we did not need to book a table and food started st 5pm. We went to sit in the main dining room when food started to be served, to be told, not informed politely, that all tables were taken...it was empty! The braced bar man then pained himself to say we could sit in the other room but to hurry as it was dominoes night at 7pm. Food was OK bit overpriced but we felt that uncomfortable due to braced bar mans attitude. The locals he treated very differently than us. It really was not worth the the trip. Never again!

Two things irritated me about our visit today: not getting served in order at the bar, as Ryan favoured locals over me; waiting 55 minutes for the food to arrive. On the plus side: my pint was topped up properly without being asked; the soup tasted good. Pubs shouldn't be understaffed at any time and, especially not, on bank holidays.

No fish pie on that evening sadly, so had the liver & bacon casserole instead. Marvellous, so tasty & plenty of it...lovely, thank you!

We came in as we couldn’t get a table at the Farmyard Inn, so pleased we did, service was excellent, it was fairly quiet and food is much more reasonable. Portions are excellent and we would definitely recommend it. Check out the fish and chips!

A cold, bright, sunny autumn walk, topped off with Sunday lunch at the George. I normally hesitate with lamb on the menu, but we decided to try it & we weren't disappointed. The lamb was very tender & tasty & the gravy had been made with the meat juices.. butter in the mash as well. All very enjoyable. Many thanks & see you soon

My favourite out of the three pubs. Ate there twice so food must have been good. Plenty of outside space and shade if you need it. Staff all friendly and welcoming, as in all the pubs. The fish and chips was excellent and massive.

We enjoyed the meal we had here while visiting the area. Landlord and bar staff all friendly. Good sized portions of pub food.

We visited twice on our recent visit to Peak District. A great reception from the staff in a traditional pub/restaurant/hotel. On seeing the menu on our first visit we booked a table for later in the week. I had a fantastic oxtail main course and my wife chose a mushroom starter as a main. Both were excellent with ample sides. The Hotel atmosphere was busy and lively.

Two ploughman's at £14.50 each was an absolute rip off! When I say miniscule, I really do mean miniscule, rectangular, no longer than my little finger, piece of ham, most of which was fat. Tiny amount of salad, a pork pie from heaven knows which budget line supermarket it came from, two pickled onions, small piece of stilton & a non descript light cheese...I don't know, it didn't taste of anything, two pieces of stale bread, a little pot of coleslaw...again a budget tasting, version of mayo, a fiery chutney I'm told & some piccalilli. This was awful & shame on them for charging £14.50 for two plates of rubbish. Well, no plates actually, just one of those silly boards that barely have room to contain your food from spilling all over the table. I don't know how they have the cheek to serve customers this very poor version of a ploughman's classic! The family on the next table left a lot of their meals because of the stale bread & the dry, fatty ham. When the owner asked if we had enjoyed our meals, my husband replied not really, but instead of asking him what was wrong with the meals, he just simply grunted & turned away. The last meal we had in the George, also on a Sunday, was fish & chips, which was the wrong side of warm & we had waited for 30 minutes for it, with brittle batter & very little fish within it. Avoid Sunday's is my first reaction, but on reflection, we may not bother again. Since Covid & the cost of living crisis, many pubs & restaurants have been cutting corners & hiking their prices whilst not delivering on good quality food, service or customer care. So come on, play fair & provide us with the right quality & quantity your prices should reflect. I'm not one for taking photos of my meals, but I wish we had taken some on this occasion, seeing is believing.

Went to a wake there. The food was very basic and stale. There were so much salad on the sandwich platter, the quiche was cut that small to try and make it go further. They wasn't very organised, you had to go to the kitchen for a cuppa. And the coffee was out of a 1 cup machine. Very slow. Think there could have been more staff on to collect pots, it got very untidy with empties. The people behind the bar looked like they'd been wearing the same clothes all week. I was very disappointed in the pub. Won't be rushing back 😔

Was staying locally overnight in the area and was recommended several pubs locally to eat at in the area, we tried a couple and it was either no parking or you had to book in, we decided to try the George Hotel as there was parking to the rear of the building, upon our arrival I asked the friendly gentleman behind the bar if they were serving food and did we have to book in, luckily you don’t have to book in and they were serving food until 8pm, we were passed some menus and shown the specials boards, we ordered our drinks and looked over the menu. I decided upon the 10oz steak and the wife the salmon and asparagus quiche , both served with sides, Both meals quickly arrived and were amazing and very well presented and were delicious , we also had desert, apple pie and custard for me and Eaton mess for the wife. The George hotel is a little Gem, amazing food and very friendly staff who made sure everything was spot on, a family run pub that’s worth a visit, and the prices were very reasonable 👍

A proper no-frills village pub (with hotel rooms) serving great traditional food at sensible prices in generous portions. Walked here from the Camping & Caravanning site for lunch and returned the next day! For her. Broccoli soup you could stand a fork up in and half a loaf of lovely rustic bread. For me, huge Yorkshire pud with loads of thick sliced slow roast beef with gravy and perfect veg. No room for dessert 🤣🤣

Family of four (myself, husband, teenager and 4 yr old) enjoyed the most delicious lunches on Easter Sunday! Husband and I opted for roasts and wow they did not disappoint, especially my lamb, cooked to perfection with real handmade gravy. Highly recommend the Bourban Bbq chicken and the kids portions were huge. We've loved it so much we might even come back to dinner tonight. Try it if you can.

stopped in for a drink while out on a walk. The pub was incredibly warm and bar tender was friendly and kind. Drinks were good and the menu looked good for food. A good selection of sandwiches and soup for lunch.

Arriving without booking we found every table occupied although it was still only early evening; surely a sign of somewhere good. The landlord suggested alternatives but was equally happy for us to wait for a table; fortunately one soon became available. The menu wasn't extensive but there was a specials board to supplement it and we readily found dishes to our liking. The real ale selection was good; my pint was excellent and well kept. The food was excellent, hot and the portions substantial; apparently doggie bags were readily provided for those with more modest appetites. We would have liked to sample the sweet menu but we really didn't have anywhere to put it! Definitely value for money!

Great country pub! Staff friendly and for the last 12 years we have been going here for a few pints on a Saturday afternoon!

Best pub grub we’ve had in the area. Couldn’t fault it - fresh, tasty and hot. An excellent menu with something to suit everybody

We had lunch here after viewing the Well Dressings in the village. The pub was pretty quiet to begin with but gradually filled up with more visitors, locals, hikers etc. I was impressed with the choice of food for a weekday lunch time and there...

Each time we are here, we have to have a plate of fish & chips or the stilton chicken & chips....proper chips! Sunday lunch not bad either. I do like the Shiraz they serve, that goes down well, my husband loves the John Smiths ....

Full sunday roast, good portions. I visited with the children and the portion sizes defeated them. The food was nice. 2 roast turkey 1 x roast lamb 3 x coca-colas £44

On the plus side...a friendly pub that serves good beer. On the less positive side...not the cleanest, dreadfully outdated decor and worst of all...the food. Probably the worst lunch I’ve eaten in a great many years. Really needs a complete makeover.

We called in there on 11/7/21 ordered roast beef and vegetables.Very good portion fresh vegetables and Yorkshire pudding and gravy.Well presented and very hot.

We popped in for a drink, staff really friendly, we didn’t eat but menu reasonably priced and varied. large yorkshire’s looked good

Visited for a business lunch. We all had fish and chips. The chef very kindly served mine with a salad instead of the chips. It was perfect and a big portion. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a traditional pub experience with good food.

We had an excellent well cooked, huge meal which was served quickly by friendly staff. The setting is a o little dated but don’t be be put off as the food is definitely worth it.

We called in on a wet day with a dog made welcome asked if we had checked in with the Covid App.Drinks order taken quickly and arrived just as quick.Stilton chicken was good, sweet potato and chickpea curry also good.Portions are large I regretted the portion of chips with the curry.On down side pub is dated but don't be put off

very friendly owner and staff, usually 3 decent well looked after cask ales on and the food is large and good. Yes its rather 'old school' looking and needs a lick of paint, but its in the peak district in a working village with tractors in the carpark so its best to just embrace it and have a game of darts.

As others have said the decor is a bit slap dash and dated, but the food was amazing. We all had fabulous meals, good service and very dog friendly.

I had fish and chips and my partner had the Vegan option. Both were generous portions and tasted fine. There was a good choice of ales, I had the Chatesworth gold which went down a treat. Hand Sanitiser was available at the door and all the staff had face coverings, there was also a oneway system in operation which people seemed to be observing. We sat in the dineing room so I can't comment on the bar area.

We went here whilst holidaying in the area. It came highly recommended by a friend. I walked in and asked for a table for two and was shown into a large, empty, rather dismal looking room. We ordered drinks and food, both of which arrived fairly quickly. You wait a little longer for food because it is freshly cooked.The food was excellent. Generous portions and piping hot. Which is just as well because it was extremely cold in the room with no heating at all. We were the only people in it.We left straight after eating because I was shivering with cold. I am told there are other rooms, one with a fire, so next time I go, I will ask to be seated in there, rather than the large room.

The tastiest fish and chips we can ever remember having, excellent. Just the job after a long walk, generous size too.

Covid safe with one way system in operation. Always great selection of ales on tap. Popular for Steve's famous fish and chips to eat in or take away

Just back from meal at the George,if you're looking for fresh home cooked food then this is place to go.the lamb was so tender and all the vegetables freshly cooked,,

Fantastic meal again i like a good feed and that is what you get here the value for money is great and the food is all homecooked and locally saurced the staff where polite welcoming and made us feel very at home until next time try this place the reviews dont do it justice

It left me feeling really uncomfortable. I ordered Cheesy chips and baked beans. The lady on the till repeated “cheesy chips and curry sauce”? I said “baked beans please”. She said “curry sauce” I smiled and said “baked beans”. The woman repeated “I don’t know what’s making me think of curry sauce and laughed” She then said “curry sauce” for a fourth time. I felt like it was either an in-house ‘joke’- that is actually really offensive or outright prejudice. I’m an Asian man.

Ordered fish & chips to takeaway. Pretty good value as portions were huge. Fish & mushy peas were good .... chips very average. Staff very friendly and quick service. Wouldn’t go for a sit-down meal though....as other reviewers say, the pub/ hotel needs a complete refurbishment.

Just enjoyed another good meal at our local pub. Friendly staff. Ideal for walkers and there pets. Spot on as always. What more can I say. Oh, and the sausage rolls are always spot on, despite what the townies say 👍

Stopped off here for drinks and a place to play card games. It is a friendly, local pub with a wide menu perfect for a day after walking when you want big portions and some comfort food.

I visited for the first time today with friends. The service was really friendly.The food was fine, nothing to write home. We found hair in a couple of the dishes we ordered and brought this when they came to check everything was ok and the guy was very apologetic. The chef also then came out to speak to us about this which we very much appreciated. Despite an apology there was no offer of a fresh dish or any refund. I was really disappointed that this pub wasn’t taking part in the eat out to help scheme. I also feel the food was over priced for what it is

This was the second visit to the George and it didn't disappoint!! OK so it looks a little worse for wear (sorry!?) But that doesn't for one minute effect the service, quality of food or the friendliness!! We went in with two kids and was catered for perfectly. High chair wiped down with sanitiser before we used it. Had good measure in place one way through the pub and sanitiser for you to use. The food was beautiful, everyone was fully impressed and very full!?! They have a menu that everyone would be able to find something to eat. We will definitely be returning when we are in the are! Thanks!!

We had a pint and a glass of wine on our trip and sat outside on the bench in the sun. My glass had hard yellow and green ( hopefully it was, at best, dried food) stuck to it. Although apologetic they just poured the wine into a new glass. I am not convinced the bits of hard stuff was only on the outside of the glass so this was awful service. I would have renewed it all. Especially in covid 19 s midst.... very tired n old inside... needless to say wont be returning

Called in this pub whilst walking in the area with my wife and dog, designer pub this is not muddy boots and paws made most welcome. Friendly staff good range of ales on tap and a range of bar snacks and food on offer, had the large fish and chips for one but when it came another sharing plate was ordered!!! Very large fish delicious home made chips peas salad and coleslaw in all excellent value @ £12.95 freshly cook to order not plastic food... Will call in again when in the area

This has to be by far the worst/dirtiest pub I have ever been in with very rude and careless owners. Me and my partner booked for valentine's weekend. The room was very dated and absolutely STUNK of grease. It was vile. We cut our stay short. After explaining our problems with the room, we asked for the remainder nights money back, she refused to give this to us and couldn't care less.I can't stress enough, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE.

Visited The George a few times during a short stay in Youlgreave, first time to the area and the Peak District in general. This pub is a gem! Friendly staff, friendly locals, nice relaxed atmosphere, reasonably priced, small cosy rooms, and there’s a real charm about the place. I particularly liked the collection of plates within the premises for each year, though the collection stopped in 2009 (?), and other quirks. Had a couple of lunches here and an evening meal. All three meals were plentiful, cooked to perfection, and served piping hot. For the money, a bargain! Big fan of the homemade chips! Frankly, the UK needs more pubs like this, and to end its obsession with the samey characterless lifeless average service pubs that Greene King et al are churning out.Will be checking in when next in the area!

During a walk with a friend we stopped at this pub and had a delicious filling meal of Vegetable Yorkshire Pudding (always piping hot). We have visited this place a number of times and never been disappointed.For excellent food at reasonable prices and great cask conditioned beer + friendly service this Peak District Pub can't be beaten.

3 roast dinners..2 beef 1 turkey .1 childs meal.Lots of lovely tender beef and turkey. Fresh veg,cooked to perfection. Childs meal was 3 sausage,and homemade chips and beans.Absolutely lovely. This is one of our Christmas treats every year after walking round Castleton. Good price too. Highly recommended.

This must be one of the most joyless places we’ve been to for a long time. We only called in for a cup of tea after a long walk, and wished we hadn’t! There was a badly broken and dangerous bench seat in the lounge with a large visible broken section of wood (I mentioned this to the barman who said they knew and were waiting for it to be fixed... but no warning sign or similar), plastic seat covers in the lounge were ripped or slashed, they particularly advertised themselves as having speciality teas including Earl Grey but didn’t have any, the whole lounge area was painted a ghastly shade of purple and pink and desperately needed redecoration and the public bar was worse. It might be ok to sit outside at the front in the summer looking onto the quiet main street and there looked to be a reasonable selection of real ales, as well as a modest selection of home-cooked meals, but thank goodness we weren’t thinking of booking accommodation here (they do offer it). Not an experience we wish to repeat and clearly not a popular pub either, certainly in the daytime - and we realised afterwards that there was at least one other much nicer looking pub in the village which was also open on a quietist January afternoon. We’ll be going there next time.

Visited for a family meal of 5 after some walking in the area. Fairly basic dated facilities, but friendly welcoming staff, and fantastic food, so don't judge a book by its cover here! We ordered quite a range of food but it was all delicious and piping hot. (Ranging from paninis, roast dinner, hunters chicken and braised liver) The outstanding chips were probably the nicest we have ever tasted, they had a 'proper sun tan' no pale chips here, and tasted amazing! Prices were perhaps on the expensive side (£5+ for starters, £7 for paninis and mains £10+, but when considering the portions and the taste we were happy with what we paid.Walkers, families and dogs are all welcomed here, especially dogs, as the staff made a particular fuss of them all!There are more areas around here that we would like to come back to visit, and will hopefully pop back here for another meal too.

Visited after a wet 10 mile walk, decided on this pub as it looked the most dog/mud/walker friendly compared to the more formal dining pubs in the village. Ordered bowls of chips and some huge sausage rolls from the bar - was asked if we would like these serving warm to which I said yes. Sausage rolls both came out burnt- they had quite obviously scraped the top layer of black pastry from them before serving them so there seemed little merit in sending them back if they were happy to send them out like that. Had to go find a waitress and interrupt her from playing on her phone to ask for condiments and cutlery. Sausage rolls got fed to the dogs as they were utterly inedible, how any “chef” could serve something so obviously burnt is testament to this place’s standards. It could do with a thorough clean, painting and getting the front of house dressed suitably - the waitress who served us was wearing a crop top with about six inches of her stomach on show. The pipe work in the ladies loo was leaking all over the floor and obviously had been for some years, they looked desperate for a good clean but someone had just stuck a vase of flowers in there to cheer the place up instead. Utterly bizarre place.

A last minute booking for 6 Of us was arranged in a very pleasant manner. Our order was promptly served and the food was delicious. The staff were friendly and willing to chat, even though the 2 little children in our group were getting tired and restless. I would happily go back for another meal and can certainly recommend this pub .

Bearing in mind, we heard the landlady say on two occasions, "We cater for walkers, they want building up, so we serve large portions...no sense in going home hungry is there?" Well that's exactly what we did, & when we got back to our holiday cottage, we had some toast to fill up. Miniscule portions & my husband only had half a portion of pie that was bone dry. My pork was nice, but had very little in the way of chips with it. Other people's plates came out full to the brim & some of the wastage on these plates was shocking. After our 10 mile walk, we needed a bit of building up. My husband complained about the pie & it was taken back & replaced with a full portion, but again dry, hidden by a mountain of gravy. When we went to pay, my husband mentioned this but no one was interested & they really couldn't have cared less. We've been using the George for nearly 11 years now & there has been a steady decline in portions & standards. Sadly, they trade off the tourists & don't give a fig for standards or the state of the place.... broken benches, dumped fridge freezer outside, no effort to clear it & make it a nice seating area for anyone. W had very expensive take away chips last year, a miniscule portion yet again...daylight robbery springs to mind. Next time we do a 10 miler, we'll go elsewhere. Sorry state of the pubs in Youlgrave at the moment

For me traditional would normally be a positive, but this establishment could do with some sensitive updating. First up would be recognition that customer service has moved on in the last 40 years. We almost felt we were interrupting the barman in his work, and while the food service was reasonably prompt there was no attempt to find out whether our food was Ok and plates were left on the table long after we had finished eating.

Visited this pub twice whilst staying in Youlgreave recently. The pub is very old fashioned, with lots of cosy rooms. Very dog friendly. Wonderful cider on draft and the food was amazing. I can personally recommend the roast (I had Beef, which was very tender!), very generous helpings with lovely fresh veg and the bestest mash in the world (according to my 11y/o daughter!). Both my son and daughter sampled the sweet potato, chickpea & spinach curry which was very tasty! And on the second visit I had the Cod and Chips... just as good as the rest of the food, which wonderful rustic chunky homemade chips! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, always happy to help and even come for a chat! ☺️

Large portions of food served but your typical pub food. Mashed potatoes a bit watery and it was quite noisy when we were there. Staff very friendly though.

Visited for a meal on a pleasant summer evening. Had decided on our meals at 8:05pm. A single man behind us was ready to order so we said for him to go in front of us. He ordered his meal - no problem.... Our turn. As we went to order, we were told, ‘Food’s finished!’ We were astounded as the man we had let go in front had been served. No apology. To cap the evening off, the elderly barman was rude and dismissive without an ounce of customer service. I suggest a swerve of this poor establishment.

Popped in for dinner twice with a friend during our stay in Youlgreave. Lovely little pub, friendly service by the staff, felt welcoming. Food had massive portions, could only eat about half! Would really recommend the giant Yorkshire puds - I had the vegetarian version and it came with veg, mashed potato and roasted potatoes. They had other veggie options too. Was really lovely and would recommend.

Whilst staying in the village we popped in here a few times. The food was good, the drinks fairly priced and well kept, and the icecream amazing, but the best bit was the warm and friendly welcome. Wish this was my local!

Popped in here one afternoon after a walk and sat outside. Had drinks and food and the décor is looking a little tired but the staff are friendly and the pub and furnishings from another era. Menu did look like something from years gone by but we ordered all the same, a panini with salad and a deluxe burger with chips - it had a name but I can't remember. Anyway the panini was fine quite good my wife said but my burger was very average, over cooked dry meat and the cheese had little flavour, possibly the worst beef burger I have had from a pub. The chips were good but a few were still joined up - I had a three legged chip.

We popped in here whilst out walking and was amazed for two pints and a glass of lemonade to cost £9.75

Following a Lathkill Dale dog walk we called into the George for lunch. Fantastic hospitality, best pint ofTimothy Taylor’s I have ever had and the Sausage rolls are amazing.

Staying in Cromford and friends we met friends who are local and they took us here for dinner. Well we had a lovely meal. I had Yorkshire pudding with beef my husband beautiful pheasant our friends steak and gammon all the good was amazing. Service is excellent. Yes it’s dated but has the feel of the old days xx

Called in at the end of a walk after seeing this pub in Camra’s Pub walks guide. Dingy pub in need of a massive overhaul and a good clean in the meantime. Almost just had a drink and left but decided on panini each and a bowl of chips. The chips were nice, paninis average and side salad feeble. ( The menu has very serious punctuation issues!! )My husband went to the toilet and advised me not to bother - worst he’s been in. Wish we’d tried the Bull’s Head instead!

I had the family room . The room itself wasnt too bad and the bed linen seemed clean but the bathroom had broken tiles and dirty grout and was fairly basic.There was peeling wallpaper and the shower had a grotty plastic curtain

We visited in the evening. The decor in the bar is tired and it smelt of burned chip fat. We were led to believe that there was a quiz on but it seemed not! The barman advised us to go elsewhere - so we did!

Friendly owners and staff, had a few real ales and Fish & Chips well it was on Friday. Tasty beer and food, what more could you ask for.

Good English pub with good cooked to order food all well cooked. Popular with walkers and dog owners.

Popped in for an evening meal and enjoyed a typical meal in a typical English pub. Nothing really special, but good food for reasonable money. Portions were generous and food tasty. Place is a bit tired but that sort of added to the atmosphere. Good place to stop when you are tired and hungry as plenty of choices on the menu and drinks from the bar.

The food in this lovely friendly pub is fabulous! The fish and chips is the best we have ever had. The hand cooked chips are amazing.

Saturday lunch midway through a walk with the family and dog. Dog friendly & excellent steak pie and chips. Would go back anytime

We stopped in here just before we started one of our walks. I had a pint of heiny and my partner had a flat diet coke, didn't moan though. After looking at the very large menu we decided on a few bits - i had the fish and chips which i couldnt fault except the side salad that looked like it was prepped a week before, the pot and leek soup which was really nice, a cheese and tuna panini which was standard again the side salad wasnt much cop and then also one of the sausage rolls off the bar, it had clearly been sat there way too long it was a bit tough on the ends, along with another drink we must have spent £35. Sorry to say its very over priced for what you get, should def lower the prices. Apart from that the staff were all friendly enough. (The picture does do the food justice as its been photoshopped) real life the salad was dull.

Friendly pub, didn't eat in the pub, however, did use their take away for fish and chips. Ordered at 19:45 on Good Friday and even though they were busy food was ready to pick up at 20:30 as requested and it tasted great.

Expensive food and very poor quality...lambs live £11.95. And microwa d. Avoid at all costs. Terrible

At 6.00 pm there was one other customer in the lounge. This, plus the rather neglected decor, could have put us off, but the welcome from the barman/manager, plus the appetising meal the customer was working his way through encouraged us to stay. A good move. We ordered the same as he was eating - steak pie, mashed potatoes, broccoli and carrots - and sat back and enjoyed our reasonably priced drinks. When the meals arrived, we found the plates were piled high and one couldn't have asked for more - or got anymore on the plate. The pie was packed with tasty meat and topped with an equally tasty pastry. The vegetables were cooked "just right" and simply delicious. We both cleared and plates and then had to laugh when we were asked if we wanted a dessert. The only downside of the George is the rather tired decoration. By 7.00 pm, the lounge was filling up nicely.

Had a lovely walk from Youlgrave up the river lathkil and back called in lovely homely feel great choice of beers and food, sun trap outside at dinner

Called in for lunch. Was only going to have soup but am afraid parsnip is not on my radar. Instead chose fish cakes from starter menu and other half had burger and ordered side of chips. There were more than enough chips for both of us. Freshly made and with skin on they were divine. Friendly service and good food. Will return to eat from main menu. Definitely recommend worth a visit.

Had takeaway from here - food was good but pub is very tired and needs a good decorate and clean - shame because could be a gold mine

Really tasty food and good portions, friendly staff and locals. fantastic old fashioned homely place, will visit again

Great for a quick meal and beer, and very reasonable prices. No frills, but very prompt service, piping hot food and big servings! Just what you need after a long day walking in the rain.

A proper pub. Not great food but standard pub grub and friendly welcoming staff on a quiet weekday lunch when other pubs weren’t open.

A few days in the Peaks and we had a meal here to 'fill the hole' as it were. Authentic village pub with food and decent beer. Was not busy but looks like a focal point for locals.

Popped in here with friends for a drink but we did not stay as it just looked dated, tired and in desperate need of some TLC, new furniture, paint etc.... Cannot comment on the beer or food, just the establishment. Have rated it as average....

Friendly pub open all day for food. Staff are welcoming and helpful. Unfancy environment great for locals, dog walkers, hikers and other visitors to the village. Tasty food, I especially like the beef in giant Yorkshire pudding which is yummy! Fish and chips recommend too. Prides themselves on their meat products - justifiably in my opinion. Have both a "standard" menu and a specials board. I am local and have used the pub for food as a couple and with family and always found it a very satisfying meal.

We went in the evening as we were staying up the road, the missus had a fish cake, which was a little stodgy and I had partridge breast in orange & cream, which although cooked nicely, had never seen salt or pepper in its life, which made it a bit tasteless. Prices were good value though and the staff were friendly.

The George does not try to be what it’s not. It however delivers on everything you expect from a county pub in the Dales.

A proper pub in a lovely village . Old school decor , a nice selection of ales with a few tables outside offering views of the church opposite . A special mention has to go to the enormous sausage rolls on offer which were that good we went back before we went home to buy some to take withus . If you appreciate a real pub then this is the place for you .

Had something to eat here today it was lovely you certainly get a plate full I had the firecracker chicken which was amazing my Husband had the homemade steakpie which he said was delicious proper home made chips we couldn't manage a pudding after they have a good selection of dishes to choose from there are a selection of dishes on a black board above the bar the rest on a menu card so if you want home made cooking go here recommend it they have a good selection of draft beers as well it's not a posh place but a nice old fashion pub in a lovely little village from Dianne Stevens from Derbyshire

A lovely pub, not too expensive (£8.00 for an Old Mout and Amstel) and my other half had a small fish and chips which came with peas, salad, and coleslaw and she said it was the best fish and chips she'd ever had. We bought a sausage roll to take away with us, which we decided was essentially a sausage Wellington! Bloody lovely. A nice pub to sit down, outside, and take stock of life.

Had some good beer and the biggest sausage rolls you have seen at very low prices, service is good and quick

Came on a couple of occasions whilst staying very nearby and thoroughly enjoyed sitting outside with pints of 12th man and watching the world go by in this delightful village. Didn't eat so can't comment on the food.

Difficult one this. Went to Youlgreave for a nice drive out to find the main one we went to at 1:00pm closed, 2nd one food finished serving at 2:00pm so this was last resort.
