Just had the best Sunday lunch on the Lincolnshire coast! 5* lovely choice of 3 meats and a great variety of vegetables including a yummy cauliflower cheese. It was very well presented, very hot and traditional. Well done everyone!

Found it very friendly menu a bit sparce as they were waiting delivery but at least we got a lunch could do with not cooking pies as much as we're a bit hard round edges. Please take this as a suggestion not a criticism but a little more filling in pies would not go amiss but all in all very friendly and helpful see you next time we are in Alford.

4th time in here. Not my cup of tea, but it is probably ok for some. Chips were nice, as they usually are, peas are always hard, and rest of food is just 'ok' (sorry!) Staff are nice and friendly, but i have never stayed long enough to comment further. Its more of a 'local's' pub, and I'm sure a lot if people enjoy being there, but its not one of my favourites.

From the outside it looks like a top notch village pub where you would expect a cosy atmosphere and a roaring open fire and hearty grub Inside isn’t like that sadly as you find a very cold and basic decor that feels a bit like sitting in the staff room at the local co-op The people running the pub were friendly enough but seemed distracted to the point of losing most of the warm welcome and customer service you’d expect to see. So I sat and ordered a steak and ale pie which most pubs can do well What I got was a dish of inedibly tough stewing steak with a ridiculous puff pastry top that just crumbled to dust when cutting it. Honestly was such a disappointment that such a basic dish can be messed up as badly The couple on the table next to me were discussing the lack of attention and atmosphere in the pub and I couldn’t disagree It’s a curious place. If they can improve it and have it as nice on the inside as the outside promises then daytime midweek trade would be much better Oh and there’s no lock on the toilet cubicle door either so you have to sit and physically hold the door shut And I wasn’t offered any condiments or sauces with my meal at all Attention to detail (and their customers) from staff here could make all the difference And a huge uplift in standard of food and service needed to get repeat custom during the daytimes

Nestled in the heart of Alford, this establishment proved to be a haven for sports enthusiasts seeking both camaraderie and quality libations. Upon entering, we were immediately enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere, setting the stage for an enjoyable evening ahead. While our visit was brief, it was abundantly clear that this venue takes pride in its commitment to hospitality. The staff greeted us with genuine smiles and a genuine eagerness to ensure our experience was nothing short of exceptional. One of the highlights of our time here was undoubtedly the impressive selection of beers and ciders. With a diverse array of options to choose from, even the most discerning palate would find something to savor. From crisp lagers to bold IPAs and refreshing ciders, the choices were as varied as they were enticing. Although we regrettably didn't have the opportunity to sample the food offerings, the tantalizing aromas wafting from the kitchen hinted at a culinary experience worth returning for. But the true star of the evening was the electrifying atmosphere fueled by the live rugby match between Ireland and Wales. As we cheered on our respective teams alongside fellow fans, it became evident that this venue isn't just a place to enjoy great drinks—it's a community united by a shared love for sports and good company. In conclusion, whether you're a die-hard rugby fan or simply looking for a welcoming spot to enjoy a cold brew with friends, this establishment delivers on all fronts. With its friendly ambiance, diverse drink selection, and lively sports viewing experience, it's a must-visit destination for anyone seeking an unforgettable night out.

After realizing we wouldn't find any food in Chapel St Leonards during this heavily raining day, we found this place to have a snack and a drink. Staff was friendly enough to get the kitchen running and we enjoyed a lovely fresh homemade soup and a good beer. Place is nice, has a pool table, a beer garden and a car park.

It was very cold because there was no kindling for the fire. The glass was filthy but exchanged. Service was really slow waited 35minutes for food. It wasn't busy. The beef in the pie needed seasoning and not sure how lovely looking brown chips can be hard and raw.. The food was at best warm but cold in places. Didn't finish our meal and left. Alford was lovely but wouldn't go back to The George next time we visit.

I just called in for a couple of beers to kill time. The landlord behind the bar was friendly. There were not many people in the bar but it was a quiet time of day. The pub was clean and so were the toilets. The customers that were there were all regulars and seemed very friendly. I intend to go back one evening and have a meal there. Friends have told me that the meals are good.

Tiny bit disappointed to be honest. Could have said but no one likes to be embarrassed. Chicken burger was an over cooked SMALL piece of chicken in a dry bun. No relish blah blah. Chips tasted fine but were well soft. Beer was good and the service faultless. A cheery landlord which was nice. I struck lucky as my all day breakfast was excellent apart from the dry sliced mushrooms. The butter for the toast wasn't frozen so that was reassuring. Sausages, bacon and hash brown ten out of ten. Comfy seats with plenty of atmosphere going on. Highly recommended, just don't expect much from a chicken burger lol.

Lovely fish and chips hot and fresh cooked to order . Few seats outside or you can sit inside at extra cost . Only reason I've not given 5 stars is cause they charge for a carton to take away what you can't eat which I thought was a bit mean as we'd spent over £30

Staying in Aby village for a week's holiday and had to try the local pub. Exterior looks a bit "tired" but don't be put off - inside it's friendly. cosy and lots of character. Excellent choices of dishes on the menu and "daily specials" board - we especially appreciated the choice of gluten-free options and Dawn was happy to go through each option in detail. Good portions and served hot! Very tasty and wholesome. Wide range of dessert options too and it was evident from conversations with other diners, that Dawn would also be happy to adapt these just to suit individual requirements. Obviously very deserving of the many awards over many years.

I ordered a Sunday roast delivery from here and it went in the bin as soon as it arrived! Everything was burnt to a crisp and absolutely disgusting, I would not recommend eating here at all! I've heard from a few people how awful the food has been there for a while now but thought we'd give it a go for ourselves. Avoid at all costs and don't waste your money here!
