George Poole in Poole - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Very nice food at reasonable price

Was really disappointed that this venue IS NOT dog friendly, when their website says they are. Unlikely to visit again.

Love it here, go most days with mates to sort out the country

Popped in for drinks whilst walking into town. Good choice of ales and the staff were welcoming. Mainly local clientelle but all were friendly.

Booked a meal for 4, so we could watch the 6 Nations game Scotland v England, the meals were excellent and very fairly priced, good atmosphere and very friendly bar staff. Will definitely be going there again. The only down side was.....England lost.

Friendly staff and customers! They also serve great food! Makes a lovely local pub!

Very disappointed. My husband had the mixed grill. The steak was inedible as it was so fatty. The sausages weren't cooked properly and were only tepid. Not enough light to tell what colour they were. The plates weren't cleared until they were bringing the dessert. We told the waitress about the steak. She said she would tell the chef, no apology, nothing! My steak was fine. The desserts were ok but not as described on the menu.

We are staying at the travel lodge and wanted somewhere to go for a drink, food and watch the footy. What a great place, staff very friendly and I have to say it is the best bar food I have had in a long rime. I would highly recommend.

Great food Great staff especially that beautiful blonde bar maid . Very friendly place would recommend

Recently visited whilst shopping with my wife . We had lunch and a bottle of wine .. If you want somewhere near the shops that is reasonably priced with friendly staff then this is the pub

Welcoming , and a reasonably priced pint Only pooped in for one but seems like a nice pub .

A proper pub, as It was my first visit good choice of beer's and the food was excellent and not expensive. I'll definitely call in again if I'm passing.

Absolutely perfect experience from start to finish, the food was incredible! Went here for a celebratory meal after graduation and I couldn't have asked for more, no complaints from anyone and we all had different meals.

Just popped in with friends for a meal and a drink before the theatre, nice people, nice place, great food, and lots of it. To top it all, Newcastle won .Poole has got a healthy support for sport. Thanks to the staff.

Lovely pub with a great atmosphere and even better food . Staff are lovely Great place to watch the football too

Great pub, friendly staff, decent beer with the football and other sports on. Proper old fashioned pub

I've only just stumbled across this pub whilst shopping,and would highly recommend rather than trying to find out how pathetic the weatherspoons is for service and very poor table service

We were staying a little "out of town" and walking in, stopped at The George. Impression from outside was misleading, it's a nice "proper pub" inside. More local than tourist, except when shows are on at The Lighthouse, but very welcoming. The menu and food we saw was very tempting, so next time..... Total Madness were on later but we had ongoing plans so could only stay for one drink. Next time.....

came in with a group of friends and we were all delighted with the food. It was all very tasty, hot and well presented. The staff were friendly and helpful and we were served quickly. Would highly recommend to anyone that wants to go out for a traditional pub grub

Excellent food at very cheap prices

Great experience would love to come again:)

Absolutely incredible food, me and my boyfriend got the cowboy burger. Came out super fast, nice and hot and our favourite food out yet! Quiet and calm environment, friendly staff.

Parked in the lorry park overnight and found this place. Could not believe it was only £3 for a pint of calsberg. I had the special deal for a wedesday beef madras and a pint for £9.50 was really nice as well. Would defo go back if am in the area.

An authentic English pub. Tasty food (Angus burger + lasagna), regulars (football managers) like they fell out of a British movie. Great...

We came in for dinner with friends had burgers and nachos. The food was great I would highly recommend the ultimate chicken burger. Staff were really pleasant and efficient. Large car park out the back so really convenient if you are driving

came here recently for some food and drinks, and food and service was excellent, staff were super friendly, will definitely be coming back !

Visiting family in the area for the day and stopped here for lunch and drink. Food was good and well priced. Lovely friendly staff. Would definitely recommend

Went here last week for a cheap pub lunch . Food was good and service was excellent . Loads on the menu and lots of choice of drinks . Highly recommend and an easy stroll from the main shopping centre. Great place to stop for lunch and a drink whilst shopping

Visited while working in Poole,a fantastic place with very friendly and courteous staff. Definitely recommend. Darren -Newcastle

Always the best night in the George with all the friendly staff especially the managers Kat & Steve. Great food and and good value for both food and drink fantastic for live sports

Got sent up from plymouth to the nicu maternity ward as our baby was born at 30 weeks and they had no space in our home town. Didn't know the area or where anything was so we went to the closest place which was the George Hotel. They were very friendly and the food was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend. :)

Still as it was many years ago. Was only there for a while before moving on to final destination.

Great place, lovely staff, nice cozy bed. Looking for a nice place to rest? this is the place. Not a luxurious choice, but it is value for money paid.

I have been to their bar ..its very affordable and the atmosphere is amazing.

The staff are friendly and HELPFUL, the food is the best pub food i’ve eaten for ages. Best pub in Poole I would say and i’ve eaten in most of them

If you are looking for a pub that offers great pub food & drink that is very reasonably priced, then the George is it. Located in the heart of Poole & close to the ferry port.

Good for a quick meal. Beer was ok

No airs and graces just good honest beer and good value food. On a busy roundabout but has pay parking at rear but the pub will refund (read their board to see term).

Great pub in the heart of Poole

Not the best pub, but a pub is a dying thing these days. Gratefull for it being there but it could do with some help and tlc.

I came in to watch the match fantastic picture and sound. Decided to try their burger and a pint deal the ultimate beef burger and a pint of San Miguel was only £10.95. The burger was delicious and fully loaded good pint of San Miguel. Staff were really friendly and efficient pub was clean and tidy. Good atmosphere for the football. It’s a Bonus that they have a large car park at the back of the pub that you can use for free as long as you register behind the bar. I will definitely be back and will recommend.

Haven't been to the George for a good few years but must say the staff and food was excellent. Husband says the mixed grill was one of the best he's had and being a fussy eater that's saying something. Anyone looking for good food this is the place to visit. Will definitely come again soon

We are staying in the area for work and this is the 2nd time in the pub. The service is always great the pub is clean and always smells fresh. First time I came had the hunters chicken which was cooked really well this time I tried the pie and I wasn’t disappointed. Lots of TVs for the football and can play darts which makes a change as not many pubs have dart boards now.

We had a lovely beef madras curry and a pint on their Wednesday promotion

Rude customers, not suitable for family, kids not allowed

Told by regular they don't allow children before we'd taken 2 steps in the door, not sure if thats the case but we had to leave

Great prices Had a fantastic burger recently. Great atmosphere. Live bands and pub quiz are great fun.

Popped in today for a quick point it seems cleaning and tidy

Nice traditional pub with good atmosphere

We popped in for a quick bit to eat before a show, very busy but food served quickly and hot and we really enjoyed it. Will be back again.

Fantastic pub staff are always very friendly and helpful. Great for sport as they show more than one sport at a time and the burgers are outstanding. Would highly recommend the chilli burger it was top notch love this local friendly pub. Always good entertainment as well

Friendly welcome & good food . Our place to go to for lunch when we visit poole

The pub we used got new stupid management and so we needed another. We decided to try the George because it had a big car park and we usually had a boat on tow. Went to talk to them first as the kids were about 10. 'If they play up Ill throw them out'. I said 'Only if I dont throw them out first'. Usually arrived dripping wet always sat at the same table. Drank coke and tea. Landlord a bear of a man. Sings Christmas carols starting in July. Favourite word - bargain. Bar staff, Grace Ali and Tash. Professional courteous graceful All round beautiful people, Then there is Mrs Landlady. Beautiful people too but she cooks! Discovered Cowboy burgers, chicken tikka, soup, gammon, mixed grill, bangers and mash, fried breakfasts, roast dinner...Ive probably had more but forgot. Only once did we have a problem with a meal. It was immediately dealt with and we have never complained again. Mrs landlady has literally adjusted each and every meal for each of us! Just how we like them. She literally asks whos having what meal and does it with no fuss. Incredible. They seem to specialise in watching football. Not my thing, but they obliged when I asked to see the Dakar. Live music is usually good. Spent many hour listening to bands in there. Only iffy bit is the toilets. The urinals are set for 8 foot tall people, so wellies... Never had a crossed word or raised voices - except 'BARGAIN!' I suppose the three of us have been here about three times a week on average for the past thirteen or so years. One of the best things thats happened to us over the years was to find this pub and its staff.

Proper locals pub great for sport and, decent beers. Never eaten here, as drop in for a pint on way home after work.

Great food, great atmosphere and lovly staff will highly recommend going there just had a chicken burger and was probably one of the burgers around nice price also if ur looking for a nice chillied place to have a drink Nd food then this is the place to be 😊

Saturday afternoon ordered a steak and chips. Got a full plate that was also hot, not like whetherspoon where everything is luke warm or half cold. Big screen entertainment, recommended.

Excellent service food really good value

First visit to the pub and I have to say what a lovely pub this is. The staff were really helpful and friendly. We tried the rump steak and it was cooked to perfection. The plates were warm which makes a nice change. My husband tried the wainwright which was really good quality. The atmosphere of the pub was lovely with the music being at the right level to still be able to talk. We will definitely be back to this lovely traditional pub

My daughter went there and got a parking ticket, it was dark, wet, badly lit and not very safe for a young girl on her own, very poor lighting on signage be warned. At night parking fines are not needed,

It's not a great start when you have to pay to park in the pub carpark especially when it's cold, dark and/or raining. Very much a local's haunt as felt very cliquey upon entering. A rather perplexing mystery is the big children's sweets machine which has main prominence at the bar to which the lady barmaid then informed us they don't allow children? So what's the point of the machine I wonder? We then left in disgust. I would have thought in this day and age and particularly due to the pubs location that they would be doing everything to encourage custom, not put people off. Is this a deliberate cynical ploy because the pub sits on a prime development plot? I hope not. One can only guess? Time will tell.

Been staying her for few weeks and food is delicious and beer is nice and good price definitely recommend this place.

Great place friendly staff and good place to watch football

Best pub in Poole. Lovely owners, great beer, friendly locals.

1st visit and never again 45mins waiting for simple burger and chips and still never came then to be told can be ready in 20mins wasn’t even busy nobody else eating definitively better places to go

Great local people behind the bar , lovely welcoming by all , food was fantastic and I couldn’t believe how cheap it was, don’t no how they do it for the price ,, definitely will be back when in the area 👍👍👍

lovely community, best pub in Poole

Just of the ferry so finding somewhere to stay was impossible due to the Queens funeral. A great place to gather our senses,before we moved on,The proper English pub.

We were made to feel so welcome. Will definitely be visiting again soon. Laura is a great asset to you

Friendly service from Ali behind the bar. The building exterior has recently had a spruce up but why oh why have the toilets not been replaced and decorated. This really lets the pub down and from experience puts people off eating.

Brilliant place, proper local. Everyone was really welcoming and really friendly. Even put on the sport I wanted to watch.

I had the chicken curry What can I say. The curry was very watery. The poppadum was greasy. The naan bread was hard as rock. And the mango chutney was on ration. When we mentioned it all she said was "yeah" Would not eat hear again

Lovely pub, great for watching the football good amount of TVs good food and amazing service. Would come again

Great breakfast and early pint on a Saturday. Big screen for the rugby

Aeesome staff I live away from poolr now but when I come back this is the first pub I come to, great atmosphere great staff good selection of beers and spirits will be back soon

Called in here for drinks after being at the Lighthouse and I had a beer (Palmers IPA) but when served it was cloudy and tasted off. So I said to the young barmaid that I think that this is off. She referred it to an older guy on a barstool on the patron side of the bar who shouted out loud (it was busy) that you don’t know your beer mate. Anyway, I was given another beer that wasn’t to my taste so I politely took a few gulps and left it. I do know my beers having a lifetime membership of CAMRA since being a student many years ago. Never, ever have I received such a rude dismissal in public in all the years of tasting beer ( notwithstanding being a paying customer). It’s a no brainier that I shall not return to this establishment - Marstons can do better, surely?

He is a great barber and a very friendly person

Very lively, with a friendly crowd of regulars. Regular music and good food. Great staff.

Great atmosphere Great staff good all round place to go for drinks and food with entertainment on a regular basis 👍👍😊😊

Good beer Good food and a good atmosphere

I have not been in here for a while but still a great pub with landlord Steve still at the helm after many years. Had a meal which was really good. A proper good old fashioned pub with a good atmosphere highly recommend

Great food but place could do with a bit of an update

Never had food but only because I am not fan of pub food but nice to sit with friends after work for a few beers and chill out.

First time visit to this lively pub, with a great atmosphere. Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. We will definitely return for another visit soon. 😊

Popped in for a swift pint with my son. It really didn't taste great so we left it. Would normally raise issues at the time to allow establishments to resolve but was in a hurry and it was busy.

Friendly staff, good food and great company

Lovely pub, managed by 2 warm, generous people. Can't go wrong.

Early morning visit, looks like there is loads happening,5* food hygiene, car park, clean loos..... yeah nice pub dead handy for lighthouse/bus station.... obviously quiet pre pm

Excellent landlords always happy and very polite to ensure everyone is happy

Best pub in Poole, friendly and chatty staff, great atmosphere, footballs always on ⚽️ 🍻

Nice breakfast,best around cheap to!

Friendly staff, always helpful, nothing too much trouble

Nice friendly staff and customers

3 stars was a bit stingy I had no issue and great service 👍

Very friendly staff. Drinks are at a reasonable price. Good typical selection of pub food and reasonable priced. Toilets were clean. This is not an up-market pub so not somewhere to take your partner if you wish to impress. Having said that it is clean and tidy. Empty glasses left on tables are cleared regularly. If your into sport they have plenty of TV's so can watch them from almost anywhere you sit. I go weekly and meet up with my friends for Saturday afternoon match.

Great pub with a brilliant atmosphere, Ali who served us was particularly welcoming and helpful

Great sports pub will you be showing the rugby?

Kayleigh is fantastic, great attention to detail

Great atmosphere, great beer....

Pleasant town centre pub, a pub in the older sense, a real pub

Nice local and a friendly place
