The food and service was good However the seats were filthy dirty. The wine glasses on the table required Washing as they were covered in finger prints.

This is a Greene King pub. It is a chain pub with chain pub food. If that is what you like (certainty and consistency are sometimes comforting) then you’ll like it here. It’s an old looking hotel inside & out with a degree of character and charm although personally i’d change the layout - hotel reception between front door and bar/lounge felt a little odd. Staff were friendly. Sadly my chips with rosemary salt were few and far between, barely covering their oval receptacle, they were mainly all the little bits left from someone else’s chips and were a bit cold. Not a simple pleasure then. Steak sandwich was pretty good. We nearly turned round in the car park at the sign of a chain pub and in an area like this we felt we’d made the wrong choice and should’ve done so. Not terrible, just average

Disappointed. Went on Sunday, and wasn't until after the party was ordering our food that we were told they had no Sunday dinners left. And then they had no milk for coffee. Just seemed like they didn't have much available for customers. The waitress however was lovely and was very apologetic. Was our first time here and definitely won't be back in a rush.

I got back yesterday after a 3 day really enjoyable stay at the Royal George, the staff we’re all friendly and welcoming, the room was comfortable and very clean and I had a dog friendly room which comes with a small patio which was a real bonus as my sisters had a room on the other side of the corridor and was very dark. The food we couldn’t fault the breakfast set us up for the day and the evening meals are really enjoyable and decent portions, the only reason I didn’t give the hotel 5 stars is John Smiths is included in the meal deals but they don’t do it the only bitter they do is Abbotts and is not included other than that I would really recommend the hotel.

We stayed here on the way down to Devon for our holiday as a family of 4. The hotel/pub/restaurant is actually quite decent, very clean, presentable and in a great location. It was the attitude of the staff that let the visit down. When we arrived, the staff on the welcome (lol nothing welcoming about it) desk didn’t even look up at us when we said hello, just carried on typing away for a good 45 seconds, not so much as a “Hi there, I will be one moment for you.” After some time had passed they looked up and said “can we help you?” The room was actually the best part of the stay, a bit dated, but a big comfy bed, clean and good amenities, what more can you ask for? The staff at the bar were very disinterested and unwelcoming when trying to place an order for food/drink, they were stood in a group chit chatting, looked up at us, continued their conversation and eventually came over to ask again, “can we help you?” All the fire alarms went off in the early hours of the morning around 1am/1.30am. We evacuated our bedroom along with others to reception to be met by the staff who said it was a fault on the fire alarm circuit board in the office and to “go back to bed”. No apology was offered and no apology was offered in the morning for the inconvenience and disruption (I’ve worked in hospitality for over 16 years, I understand things can sometimes go wrong that you can’t help, but it was the attitude of the staff that really bothered us). They just looked as if they couldn’t care less and that they really didn’t want to be there. The icing on the cake was when we tried to order a coffee in the morning to be told “well, we will need to let the breakfast staff know you want a coffee, so you will have to wait” as if it was a massive inconvenience. Like we said, we stopped here as a halfway point and were considering stopping here on the way back home, but we will NOT be returning because of the attitude of the staff and the unwelcoming environment.

Popped in for dinner after our return from holiday - our visit finished our holiday off fabulously before our return to work tomorrow. Greeted by the lady at the hotel desk as we walked in, a general buzz about the place, busy but it did not feel crowded (given it was a bank holiday). Delicious well presented food from a broad menu - the beetroot ravioli was divine (a treat to find edamame in my side salad!), whilst my husband and daughter both enjoyed the burgers, even squeezed in a dessert & can thoroughly recommend the Bakewell tart, soooo melt in the mouth and my daughter loved her crumble tart. Swift, friendly service with a smile by Jo, Melissa and another young lady who served our food. Added bonus that we could take the dog in the bar too and not have to leave him at home (and we could grab a snack bag for him whilst supporting Macmillan Cancer too) - thank you, we will be back!

We were celebrating my sisters birthday and a going away dinner for myself. It was a lovely evening that was made even better by Jasmine. She was very polite and friendly and had a good laugh with us. She was very well experienced and showed excellent service and attention to detail. I miss took her for a member of management and was shocked to find out she was just a team member. Working in the hospitality industry myself I can see she has lots of potential.

Experience was awful, booked a table for four by mother has not been in years, she was so looking forward to the meal, arrive show to table all good so far, menu looked good we order starter and mail along with drinks, waitress was uninterested. Starters arrive with in 10 minutes, ok, have had better, then we waited and waited and after 35 minutes I enquired as to the location of our main course, said waitress went to investigate arrived with two plates stating they were hot be careful, they were cold along with the salmon and the rubber poached egg which was cold, obviously had been left under the heated lamps for sometime. They were taken away, by husband and son had their meals served, warmer but obviously had been left under heating lamps for some time. 20 minutes later meals arrived, hot yes but salmon was burnt and had to leave half of it !! Waitress did not return to take any further orders had to get up and approah said waitress who was on her phone. At which time I asked if the manager of the hotel was the same as the restaurant, she asked if I wantd to speak to them i said yes later. We were appraoched by the manager who stated they had taken the cost of the 2 meals from the bill before even asking what was wrong, ok good but the replacement was as bad as the first attempt, I really wish we had left. At no time did a waitress return to sk if we required any more drinks, we were sat there for an hour and 3/4, with just 1 drink each and meals at 30 minute intervals, will ot be going back and will not be recommended

Was referred to the royal George by staff at the golden hart as their kitchen was closed. Greeting was good, menu looked tasty and bar staff were pleasant - so far so good. My wife ordered prawn and chilli linguini and I ordered a sirloin steak (this supposedly came with “grilled tomato, onion rings and chips). Bit of a wait (45mins) but fair enough, it was pretty busy; now the bad bit - my steak arrived, along with half a tomato (possibly a large cherry tomato) and one onion ring…I had trouble trying to cut the steak using the steak knife provided, it was that tough. So, asked for the manager - he was off, so got the acting manager. He listened politely and said he would get me another steak. Took my plate (and left my side of seasonal veg to get cold) and reappeared 20 mins later, with another meal: half a cold tomato, a new steak, fewer chips than previously, and 3 onion rings. This steak proved to be as tough as the first, so having attempted to eat it, I left most of it. My wife found that her prawn linguini contained a total of 3 prawns and hardly any sauce. Not sure if this was the chefs night off and a waiter was standing in, but the food as a whole was not acceptable. The under manager, having delivered the replacement, was nowhere to be seen (thought he might have inquired as the quality of the second meal) and offered neither to replace the veg or reheat the originals. A real shame to write this, as the setting was delightful but unfortunately, the attitude displayed was that having taken our money, the quality was our problem. Shan’t return! Alan Seear

Jody looked after us as soon as we arrived. Gave us plenty of time to have a look at the drinks menu before taking our order. The drinks arrived promptly and we then placed our Sunday lunch order. Food arrived very quickly and piping hot. I asked Jody for extra gravy and this was not a problem. Our food was very tasty with a massive Yorkshire pudding. Just perfect.

Dropped in for a quick drink during a Friday evening as we were passing and needed a break. We were welcomed at the bar by a friendly young lady, Vicki, who was really friendly and attentive and quick to serve our drinks order. One of the draft beers had to be changed and this was done quickly and without any problem. The atmosphere was fairly lively and quite busy and although we didn't eat, the food looked and smelled great. We hope to visit again if we're ever in the area.

We had a wonderful sharing platter for our evening meal. We were served by Layla, who was friendly, efficient and made us feel really welcome. We had an excellent coffee and a perfect 'small' Eton mess!!! We were stuffed! We had booked our room online so received 20% off our evening meal bill, fantastic value for money. Layla could not have been more helpful, a real star! This has been our second visit to The Royal George Hotel. This time we asked if it would be possible to have a room on the ground floor and that was not a problem! Very much appreciated the warm welcome and the excellent room 8 on the ground floor. The hotel really is superb. We have had no problems at all when we have stayed. The beds have been comfortable, the rooms warm and inviting, well lit, T.V and kettles that work plus plenty of hot water! We will certainly visit again and highly recommend The Royal George Hotel.

Whilst staying at the hotel we decided to have lunch. Both choose the Lasagne and chips which were seved hot and tasty. However the service was extremely poor, we had to continuously explain what we needed, including intolerance issues. Breakfast the following day was OK, but items cold( not even luke warm) and eggs Royal stated on menu jug of hollanise sauce?, not given , just a mess with green on top. Please could chef just stick to menu as to include items not specified may cause allergic reaction! Had to hunt for waitress to get food heated as had disappeared.

To start, we had Sunday Lunch's which were fab to eat. The service however.. abysmal! We were there 45 minutes before being served our drinks which we had to ask for as they served our food. We were then completely ignored until we asked someone for a desert menu, we then had to chase down a member of staff to order a kids desert (just 1) and after another 35 minutes of waiting went to find someone and get the desert. Bearing in mind there was lots of free tables so they were not very busy! To top it off they charged us the incorrect bill for a much larger table. We now have to wait 3-5 days to have that money refunded and had to pay on top of this for our actual meal. I have never had an experience like this. As a fan of Greene King I was left completely unhappy. Our party consisted of 2 adults and 2 children. Will not return!

My recent experience at the Royal George in Birdlip was incredibly underwhelming. The lack of enthusiasm displayed by the staff was disheartening, creating an atmosphere that was bleak and uninspiring. This sense of gloom extended to both the bar and kitchen, where tired, lackluster food was consistently served. If you're looking for a place to lift your spirits and indulge in some delicious food, the Royal George is not it.

The Royal George was always our favourite place to go, as a special mid week treat or Sunday dinner.But over the last 4 times we have been the food has been awful, this Saturday when we ordered we had informed the waitress that we could not have the onion rings or chips but could we have extra salad. we waited over an HOUR for 2 8oz steaks that when arrived were like bits of tiny dried out leather and the salad on the side looked like it had been sat under the hot lamp for ages, for £12.50 for one tiny bit of steak and a hand full of salad leaves I was appalled.we informed the waitress and sat waiting.... and waiting.... we were in a party of 4 and the other 2 people had already finished eating when the steaks arrived at the table.. another 30 minutes later.No one even acknowledged the fact we had just had a awful meal, no apology!We paid £81.92 for a meal we had been looking forward to for 18 months.So sadly this will be the last time we will be going to the Royal George Hotel.

The hot drink and small dessert combinations were good too as after a very filling lunch you only want a small dessert. The kids colouring in sheets and puzzles were used and appreciated too.

We had an impromptu stop at the Royal George for lunch. Very friendly staff and excellent Covid precautions. The menu is extensive with some pub classics. However the food itself was somewhat disappointing. The hot pot pie was tasty but the accompanying vegetables were dry and barely lukewarm, and the mash potato was a solid lukewarm and stodgy (under the lights too long awaiting service?). By contrast, the Hunters chicken was OK, however the dessert of strawberry Prosecco choux bun sounded great but was awash with spray cream from a can - not one for the memory! So overall a disappointing eating experience that promised so much more....

Hotel is in a great location with a fab pub downstairs. For the price this hotel is great value for money. Room was clean with a king size bed and recently renovated bathroom. Main part of the hotel bedroom is a bit tired, with worn old furniture and walls that could do with a repaint. For the price this place is definitely worth the stay.

No habíamos reservado y nos detuvimos ante la posibilidad de tomar una copa de camino a otro lugar. Esto no fue un problema, aunque nuestra falta de un teléfono móvil ralentizó las cosas porque han optado por no usar lápiz y papel sencillos pero anticuados para registrar visitantes para el elemento de seguimiento y rastreo, en lugar de tener que iniciar sesión portátil que tomó un tiempo.Aunque solo estábamos bebiendo, el personal fue muy atento e incluso la mesa nos revisó. El lugar estaba muy limpio, y me encantó la forma en que usan las tarjetas de mesa para mostrar qué mesas se han desinfectado y están listas para su reutilización.Dado que el lugar es un hotel, nos sorprendió gratamente la buena relación calidad-precio de las bebidas.Sin embargo, me divirtió un poco que no se nos permita pedir nuestras bebidas en el bar, pero se esperaba que fuéramos al bar a pagar, ¡parece un poco extraño!Miramos el menú mientras estuvimos allí, y la próxima vez nos colocamos para comer y beber.

Visitamos para el almuerzo hoy, el bar y el jardín admiten perros. Tuvimos una comida deliciosa, todo está muy bien organizado con respecto a COVID - 19 y siempre nos sentimos seguros por dentro y por fuera en el RG. La aplicación Greene King funciona muy bien, por lo que puede pedir y pagar en su mesa con ella, o dar su pedido directamente a un miembro del personal. El servicio suele ser muy bueno y el personal siempre es amable y servicial. Creemos que tiene una buena relación calidad-precio, un gran aparcamiento y siempre es agradable volver

Almorcé aquí con un amigo. He estado almorzando aquí ocasionalmente durante más de 10 años y esto es lo peor que he conocido. La comida que tuve fue la peor que he probado en mi vida. Tuve el mal llamado Cheese & Onion Potato Pie, debería haber sido nombrado Potato Pie con el más suave toque de queso y sin cebolla. La única forma en que sabía que tenía queso era por las motas anaranjadas de la papa. La masa era a prueba de balas y tuve dificultades para meter un tenedor. La mejor parte de la comida fueron los frijoles horneados. El personal obviamente sabía que era mejor que preguntar si estábamos disfrutando de nuestra comida, ya que nunca se acercaron a nuestra mesa excepto para servir a otros.

El Royal George cumplía con Covid 19. Desde el momento en que llega a la entrada, hay un sistema claro de un solo sentido y un montón de desinfectante de manos. El registro fue simple y para hacer que el contacto de salida fuera menor, nos animaron a pagar por adelantado. Se requería el uso de máscaras en los pasillos.La habitación estaba limpia, era cómoda y tenía todo lo que necesitábamos. La única pequeña crítica que tengo es que la habitación necesitaba una pequeña reforma.El desayuno era servicio de mesa y ofrecía una amplia variedad de inglés completo a huevos Benedict, tortillas y pescado.Las cenas eran muy buenas. The Hunters Chicken seguido de Apple BlackBerry Crumble Pie fue excelente. Recomendaría quedarse o comer aquí.

Hay una amplia variedad de lugares para comer cerca de Barrow Wake, donde habíamos completado un paseo. Estamos muy contentos de haber elegido el Royal George. La marca Greene King es una que respetamos por la buena comida a precios razonables. Los amplios y cómodos alrededores del Royal George hicieron que cenar fuera una experiencia sin estrés. Es evidente que Greene King se ha esforzado mucho en crear un entorno amigable con Covid. La comida fue excelente y el servicio atento y amable, que ha sido mi experiencia con todos los establecimientos de Greene King.

Visité aquí un par de veces durante mi estancia en el Premier Inn al final de la calle.La primera visita disfruté muchísimo de toda mi comida, pero mi prometido dijo que su pastel estaba muy seco y recocido. En el lado positivo, la comida estaba a mitad de precio debido al esquema de "comer fuera".En la segunda visita tuve exactamente el mismo entrante y plato principal y me temo que no estaban tan buenos. Champiñones recocidos, patatas fritas no crujientes como la primera vez. Por otro lado, el postre era genial y, de nuevo, todo estaba a mitad de precio.El servicio fue amable, aunque la comida tardó en llegar. Estábamos de vacaciones y no teníamos prisa.Así que, si bien fue una bolsa mixta, en general fue una buena experiencia.

Por primera vez aquí, llamamos para almorzar en nuestro camino a través de los Cotswolds en un día gris y húmedo. A los dos nos apetecía algo caliente y sabroso, así que opté por salchichas y puré en una rica salsa de carne que goteaba, mientras que mi esposo eligió pastel de carne y cerveza con verduras frescas. Ambos disfrutamos mucho de nuestra comida, que era apetitosa y presentada de forma atractiva. Los cafés después tenían buen sabor y se servían con un pequeño trozo de mantequilla. Perfecto. El camarero que trajo la comida a nuestra mesa fue cortés y amable, a diferencia de la señora que nos recibió cuando llegamos a la entrada del comedor: su bienvenida fue algo helada. Definitivamente iría aquí de nuevo. Hay un menú amplio y variado para elegir.

Primera vez parando aquí. Una linda experiencia. La habitación era cómoda, con bonitas almohadas y una hermosa ducha caliente. La recepcionista fue acogedora y muy informativa.Llegué después de una mañana de caminar hasta el restaurante. La comida en el almuerzo fue horrible por decir lo menos, lo cual fue una pena. Pedí tendones de pollo para empezar (el menú estipulaba 6 tendones pero solo recibí 4) pastel de pescado para mi esposo y yo para el almuerzo y era pequeño y apenas tenía pescado. Estaba destinado a venir con patatas nuevas, pero parecía que estaban fritas. Pidió tarta de dulce de azúcar para el postre pero nos dieron un brownie que, afortunadamente, fue increíble.Tenía pocas esperanzas para la cena. Queríamos ir a otro lugar pero lo dejamos demasiado tarde para reservar. Afortunadamente, la cena fue mucho mejor. La ensalada era agradable y mi marido tenía pollo de cazadores que disfrutó. El personal del restaurante es atento y trabajador. Parece que depende del chef que estaba trabajando. El desayuno también era bueno y una variedad de opciones en el menú. Las porciones eran más pequeñas de lo esperado, pero pedimos huevos extra y nos acomodaron, lo que agradecimos.Volvería de nuevo, pero posiblemente reserve con antelación para comer en otro lugar por si acaso (especialmente a la hora del almuerzo).

La comida siempre es muy buena, el servicio es excelente. El personal siempre es muy amable y servicial. Si está considerando visitar, pero le preocupan las medidas de seguridad de Covid, no lo esté, todas están en su lugar. Te espera una cálida bienvenida y no te decepcionará.

Excellent value for money perhaps a little tired around the edges but we would certainly stay there again.Restaurant serves good value pub food- the only thing is we suggest you avoid the nachos- they were disgusting. Thick and greasy - they spoilt the salsa and guacamole and repeated all evening.

Visité aquí con un amigo y tuve una muy buena comida, a un precio asequible con un excelente servicio en un entorno encantador. La música de fondo era apenas notable, lo cual fue algo bueno. El restaurante le dio a cada mesa mucho espacio para que pudieras tener una conversación razonable sin molestar a los demás. La comida era de un tamaño decente y estaba bien presentada, aunque parecía que el pescado estaba demasiado cocido, o al menos frito a una temperatura demasiado alta, pero al menos la masa estaba crujiente. El servicio fue excelente, educado, atento y atento. Sin duda recomendaría este lugar.

Teníamos una habitación muy bonita y cómoda con un baño grande. La habitación estaba muy limpia pero la iluminación no era buena. No podría haber leído mi libro en la habitación. Algunas habitaciones de los hoteles tienen una lámpara de pie que se puede mover a donde desea sentarse y leer: había dos sillones y un sofá que habrían sido buenos lugares para relajarse y leer.La comida era buena, aunque mi marido dijo que el gammon que había elegido era bastante salado. El personal era muy agradable y disfrutamos de nuestra estancia y quizás volveremos a visitar en verano.

Esta fue nuestra cuarta estancia de Navidad en The Royal George. Como hemos llegado a esperar, el anfitrión de la mina, Nigel, fue acogedor y él y el resto del equipo hicieron que nuestra visita fuera muy agradable. El almuerzo de Navidad fue excelente y el servicio excelente. Siempre se sabe que mientras se divierten en esta ocasión festiva, el personal no puede hacerlo y tiene que trabajar, muchas gracias a ellos. Cosas como un menú personalizado del día de Navidad, una tarjeta de Navidad en la habitación junto con un regalo le dieron a la estancia una sensación de ocasión. En el lado negativo, no estábamos tan contentos con la habitación que habíamos seleccionado. Es muy decepcionante entrar en una habitación y encontrar las cortinas colgando sin clips para volver a colgarla. Al entrar, me pareció muy poco atractivo y, como resultado, preguntamos en recepción si era posible mudarse a otra habitación. Afortunadamente, había otra habitación disponible que era mejor. Sin embargo, incluso esta habitación tenía una bombilla fundida en el baño que dificultaba el afeitado, y también la cabecera de cuero de imitación estaba muy rayada de forma similar a una tarjeta de rascar después de usar una moneda para quitar la cubierta de un posible premio. No muy atractivo! También informamos un posible bloqueo en el fregadero ya que el agua tardaba mucho en vaciarse. Sin embargo, la habitación estaba limpia y el servicio de habitaciones excelente. Estas fueron fallas que deberían haberse rectificado antes de permitir la entrada de invitados. No dudamos en recomendar el hotel a otros y esperamos volver de nuevo en algún momento.

We have just left the Royal George after having an amazing walk along the Cotswold way, looking forward to breakfast. What a joke. We sat in the bar area, not another sole in their. Had to ask reception if anyone taking orders, eventually a waitress took our order. 30 minutes after ordering food came, but incorrect. Then another 10 minutes whilst the eggs got cold. To say the waitress was less than useless is an understatement, seemed she couldn’t wait to disappear. If this is what to expect when the hotel is empty, what’s it like if it gets busy, stay away.

Entiendo los problemas de mantener un edificio antiguo, pero se necesita un retoque de pintura en bastantes lugares. La comida estaba bien para un pub de Greene King, pero las bebidas son caras para la zona. No se nos informó sobre una oferta especial actual 6 por 2 pintas de cerveza real, después de haber mostrado nuestra tarjeta de membresía CAMRA con un 10% de descuento, por lo que cobraron más. La oferta más barata se descubrió al día siguiente cuando fuimos al cercano AirBalloon (también Greene King) donde la oferta se anunciaba claramente en el bar.

Nos detuvimos aquí por una noche para interrumpir el viaje de camino a Newquay. Me sorprendió gratamente lo fácil que fue encontrarlo desde la autopista y las cosas continuaron impresionando. La señora de recepción fue encantadora y nos dio buenos consejos sobre lugares para visitar localmente y un poco más lejos. Teníamos una habitación superior y nos encantó! ! Comimos en el restaurante por la noche y estaba delicioso, al igual que el desayuno también. Hubo una función en la noche que estuvimos y honestamente puedo decir que no nos molestó en absoluto. Definitivamente, este es un lugar donde nos encantaría volver a alojarnos.

This is a large family friendly pub (part of a chain) which has rooms for bed and breakfast. I stayed for one night on my Cotswold Way walk. My bedroom was large with a massive, comfy bed. New carpet but a cracked basin and very worn headboard (see pic). My room overlooked the car park and I couldn't hear the live music from downstairs, which was good because I'd asked for a quiet room. The restaurant staff were rushed off their feet, as were the breakfast staff. Could have done with more staff as I had to wait for 45 mins for my dinner which was hot, large, tasty, standard pub fare. I was asked if I wanted the GF or vegan menu, which I thought showed good practice.Receptionist staff were not the smiley sort but the young receptionist carried my case upstairs when I asked her for a hand. Thank you! The Royal George doesn't have a WiFi password but icloud. I didn't bother to set up an account. There were examples of wear and tear all over the building and this would be my main criticism.

As a coeliac I have found The Royal George really good in the past and visited tonight to try their new menu. I ordered a delicious sounding slow-cooked lamb with mash and seasonal vegetables, but it arrived with cauliflower cheese, pigs in blankets and a huge Yorkshire pudding. I questioned the waitress:

We've been to this fabulous hotel several times and it never disappoints us. We arrived a little early but this wasn't a problem we had a very pleasant welcome. The room was clean and tidy although a new headboard would be good. The bar are restaurant is comfortable the prices are competitive and the service is excellent. Joanne and Nigel and their team are there to make sure you're well looked after. Both breakfast and dinners were really good and cater for all tastes. Fabulous stay thank you!!
