The George in North Lincolnshire

We were so impressed with the Sunday lunch at the George - we booked based on good reviews as staying nearby at forest pines hotel for a weekend break with our 2 kids. The Sunday lunch was amazing, best cauliflower cheese ever and huge tasty portions - our girls loved it! Would defo go back

Delicious food. Lovely atmosphere

Wow!! Great location, great staff and great food. We were lucky to get a table for Sunday lunch. We had roast beef and roast chicken, with a side of cauliflower cheese. Honestly one of the best roast lunches we've had at a restaurant. Great flavour and well presented. Thank you.

Fabulous food, great staff and welcoming atmosphere. Catered well for gluten free diet. Yasmin our waitress was very smiley and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble.

Excellent food, atmosphere and staff, especially our waitress Yasmin. Didn't stay at hotel, just had a birthday meal.

Excellent Sunday on. Chowder first class and Roadt beef really good. Service was good with friendly staff. Very busy.

Absolute gem of a place! The food is simply put, amazing. Definitely come here for the food and the people are so lovely. The rooms are good and very clean, it's in an old building so expect some quirks but otherwise a great place to stay too. Would come here again

Coulda been better but still not bad.

Sunday beef roast was very good, lamb not so good.

Ate in the restaurant with friends. Good food, good value and good service. Will def revisit.

Never stayed at the george but been going regular with family and friends to the restaurant. The sunday lunch is amazing, which is why we continue to return. Can not fault any part of it. Would recommend booking in advance as you could struggle to be seated if not.

Excellent quality food served in this gem of a pub. Was really surprised with the quality of the meals! Lovely comfortable rooms , very friendly staff. Ideal for a quiet local night away. Thankyou !

Gorgeous setting, didn’t feel rushed, food portions are huge so prepare yourself 😆. I couldn’t manage to eat all my pie, and none of us needed a dessert - we only had mains.

If you are looking for a warm welcome, excellent food & a lovely relaxing room, this is the place to be. Free parking was an added bonus.

They are doing things right here. Good food. Good service and clean comfortable rooms at a reasonable price. Recommend.

We were gifted a voucher for a 2 night stay, so booked this hotel with no expectations of how it may be. We'd read a lot of reviews, so were fairly confident. We wanted a quiet, restful, weekend! On arrival, we were met, and shown to our room by the friendly owners. We had room 1702, and it was beautiful. Big bay window out to the town square, very comfortable double bed, and a nice bathroom with shower and toilet. The room was always at a good temperature, and if it got too warm, opening the sash windows was easy. Kirton is such a lovely little town, that it wasn't an issue to have the windows open, as traffic is virtually non-existent! We booked a table for the evening, and I can tell you that the food was spectacular. Easily the best meal out that we've had in a long time. 3 courses with wine was very good value. My wife had the Bloody Mary Crayfish starter, and I had the Trio of Mushrooms on Sour Bread. We then moved on to the Wild Boar Lasagna, and the Seafood Linguine. My wife finished with the Eton Mess, whilst i treated myself to a double Jura! The food was exceptional. If i could go back and eat it again... This was a wonderful 2 night stay. We would highly recommend staying, and/or eating here. Very nice atmosphere in the restaurant. We're now hoping that we get the same present again....and may be back next February!!

What wife and I booked a table for the 20% off deal, on arrival we were made welcome and given a choice of tables. We have eaten at the George before and it was particularly good. I ordered the pepper steak pie which I had with a medley of vey and new potatoes in garlic butter. My wife ordered catch of the day which was haddock, this came with mushy peas chips and tartar sauce. The food and plates were hot, a delightful meal good quality and well made. The service and food were first class, friendly atmosphere and pleasant surroundings. A very well done to all the staff, we can’t Waite to go back. Worth a visit.

We along with quite a few others booked this hotel in January for a one night stay in March , a bit odd you may think why the review now in February , well here's the thing , last week [ end of January ] we had a n message off one of our friends that were also booked in , informing him that their room was unavailable on that night so I rang to be told the same thing , no explanation why just an apology for the inconvenience. The hotel was fully booked by our party of friends that were due to attend a nearby function and a lot of them have still not received confirmation that the rooms have been cancelled, this is a very unprofessional why of treating and dealing with customers some of which were due to travel hundreds of miles to get there, the very least they should do is make sure everyone is informed and a reasonable reason why. Book with caution .

The service was excellent. Food was amazing, brilliantly presented, cooked to perfection and very very tasty. We are visitors to the area and amazed at the standard of food here. 10/10

First time we had visited this lovely place the food was excellent we are both vegetarian the choice was wonderful our friends are meat eaters and they thought the same, there is nothing to not like about The George, amazing decor amazing atmosphere fab place, will definitely visit again.

Great stay at the George - good food and wine, room comfortable and breakfast plentiful. The owner was friendly and welcoming, the shower was powerful and spacious. A very enjoyable time from arrival on Saturday afternoon till we left on Sunday morning

bad service and staff, they are rude and unfriendly! they are deceiving! I don’t advise anyone to come! They ruined our mood for our birthday! complete disappointment! horrorssss!

Visited for Sunday Lunch, the place was chilly and we ate in our coats it was 15 degrees inside rising to 17 when we left. The food was very nice and we all enjoyed it. The Customer service & attitude of some staff not so desirable. Couldn't wait for you to leave once they had your money.

We live miles away but this place was in between us and friends and looked nice with good reviews. The service is first class with nothing to much for the staff, greeted nicely and attentive. The food was incredible, so amazing, tasty, great ingredients cooked or perfection with a lot of thought and love. It’s so hard to find somewhere that keeps it simple but delivers on quality in this day and age, but this place does it all, well done The George.

My husband arranged my surprise birthday meal at The George and it couldn't have gone better. The food was fantastic and everyone was served at the same time even though all the selections were individual. The staff were excellent and attentive. In short, the whole evening was one to remember! Thanks to Glen, the chefs and all the staff.

Lovely place to stay. Charming and nostalgic building with a long history. The staff is helpful and very service minded, and the food is definitely worth a try!

Great food. Had the venison special which was amazing. Real fire and friendly staff made for a super evening.

Always have a great meal @ The George, Kirton in Lindsey. Plenty of choice & cooked to perfection. Desserts are fantastic! Staff are very friendly, guaranteeing a very warm welcome. Thank you!

The food here is exceptionally good. Between us we had frogs legs/scampi/pie (amazing!) Belly pork and steaks. All food cooked and presented beautifully. Particularly enjoyed the Asian 'slaw served with the starters. Service was also excellent with friendly professional staff. I honestly don't think anything could be improved.

Stopped by as a walk in. I immediately received a warm and welcoming greeting by the front of house staff which was nice. I was in early so it wasn’t overly busy and was given choice of preference for seating. Table and seating were clean, neat and tidy. The table layout wasn’t busy with unnecessary decor (which just gets in the way). Inside decor is comfortable and relaxing, there is a wood burner, which wasn’t on at the time but staff say it’s usually lit throughout the winter. I imagined this being a nice feature and a warming place to come when it’s cold outside. Menu choice looked great, and I couldn’t decide. The waiting staff helped, displaying good knowledge of the menu (whats been popular, her favourite dish, what’s new etc). I went with her recommendation (wild boar Lasange, for main) which was amazing! I had 3 courses in total, plus 2 diet cokes and a breakfast tea at the end and it came to £35. I almost felt guilty!!! I would have happily paid twice that given the quality, presentation and taste of the food served and the professionalism of the waiting staff. Thoroughly recommend. Food was fantastic, matched by the service. A really nice experience from start to finish.

booked a evening meal for Saturday night at the George. we found the inn has a nice oldy worldy vid a nice warm greeting from the staff and were very accommodating. A small criticism would be people looking in from outside as they walk past, some kind of half net curtain or similar would change this. we had starters and main and we found the prices to be overall fair for this style of dinning. The wife had mussels in white wine which were nice and fresh, I had the BBQ chicken wings which were also very nice, I usually struggle for a starter being a fussy eater. For main i had the belly pork which was good i do prefer my belly pork burnt well done but still enjoyed mine i thought the little apples were a nice visually but would have liked more burnt apple puree but overall a nice meal. The wife had pepper steak pie and was very pleased with it although i tasted it and thought it didn't need the pepper but that's just my taste. overall a good evening meal in a pleasant inn and i would recommend to friends and family and will dine here again in the future .

Date night at our local never disappoints. Tonight we had baked camembert and black pudding scotch egg to start the sirloin steak and wild voar lasagne for mains. All 10/10. Food amazing, atmosphere perfect and a very enjoyable evening. Thank you all.

First time we have been birthday celebration,the staff was all incredibly welcoming nothing was too much trouble the food was ridiculously good will definitely be returning very soon 😊🤗

We decided to visit the George in Market Square, Kirton Lindsey for an evening meal as it's only a short drive up the road from us and it's not been long since it was refurbished. The first thing to bear in mind is that this pub has a plush website but doesn't have an online table booking system. I left a phone message to book a table but this hadn't translated into a booking when we arrived in the evening. However, it was a Tuesday and the pub had plenty of table space. Note to self: phone after opening at 4.30pm. We had the choice of tables and decided to sit down the far end away from the bar. We quickly moved table though as it became apparent that there was a draft from the door to the beer garden. Lighting in the George is quite low except around the bar area. If you like taxidermy then you might choose to sit opposite the bar under, by my reckoning, at least ten stuffed deer heads looking down on you. Not to my taste but then again we are in the country. There was a stuffed bird adorning the windowsill where we sat, and the tables, predominantly four-seaters where we were, are plain finished bleached pine. The chairs are very eclectic with no two being the same. There is an online bar menu which we had previously perused and a selection of specials. Mrs Wanderer chose the Tandoori Halibut Kiev with Bombay saag aloo, spiced mango chutney, pickled carrots, edible flowers and herb oil off the specials menu and I opted for the Cider Braised Belly Pork from the bar menu. This came with creamed mashed potatoes, a sumptuous black pudding croquette, roasted baby apples the size of ten-pence pieces, burnt apple puree and tenderstem broccoli. When the meals arrived presentation was exceptional but there were a few problems with the dishes, especially Mrs W's. If you like crackling on your pork belly you will be disappointed. However, I'm not a fan from a previously broken tooth point-of-view so was more then happy with the dish. The fat on the pork was rendered beautifully and the tenderstem broccoli was firm under the fork. As I say the black pudding croquette was sumptuous and the mashed potato supremely smooth. Mrs Wanderer was not quite so pleased with her meal. She commented that a Kiev of any kind should have a garlic butter, or somesuch, filling but this seemed to have nothing inside. If it had then it had cooked out and was just a halibut fillet, albeit a very large and thick halibut fillet wrapped in batter/breadcrumbs. Top-notch battered fish you might think but the batter (or breadcrumbs, I'm not sure) was soggy. The tandoori flavours didn't come through and she said that from a spice point-of-view it was very bland. Disappointing at £20.95. To accompany the meal Mrs W had a large glass of Shiraz and I had a pint of Hopical Storm, one of my favourite craft ales. In all this was a moderately expensive meal at a shade over £50 for the two of us including drinks, especially when one of the meals wasn't up to scratch. However, I wouldn't shy away from another visit if the urge presented itself. Happy to recommend but avoid the halibut if it's on the menu.

The food here is outstanding! I had the calamari for starter and the chicken Kiev for my main. My husband had the lamb flat bread to start and the brisket burger for main. The cocktails are wonderful. The staff worked so hard to make the evening special especially Leanne. Thank you for a lovely evening we will be back!

It was an excellent evening meal. Decent selection from the Free From menu for my partner who is vegetarian. Portion size was massive. Will definitely be back

Been going to The George for many years and it keeps getting better. Comfortable surroundings, efficient staff, good beer and very nice food - particularly Sunday lunch. And not a fruit machine or TV screen anywhere to be seen 👍

Came for Sunday lunch today and I had the lamb and it’s was honestly stunning . A lot of places are let down by the veg selection but this one was amazing and you can pay £3 for a large portion of smoked cheddar cauliflower...

Sunday lunch today with a friend. One veggie, one non veggie. Absolutely wonderful food, can’t praise it highly enough. Beautifully cooked, proper home-made in taste but with high-end presentation. Would recommend - in fact insist - that you try it. An absolute treat.

Highly recommend this place to anyone in the area. Amazing food and the staff are fantastic... Nothing is too much for them. Strawberry and Cucumber gin is a must and I think it should be sold by the bottle We will definitely be back for...

With few places to eat in this area we thought we would give this one a go. Wish we hadn't bothered. While the curry was acceptable the steak most definitely was not. It looked good on the plate but turned out to be very rubbery...

Moved to this area probably a year before lock down and hadnt really tried many places to eat, thankfully we were recommended The George by a friend, been 2 or 3 times midweek and has always been great food, . Just had sunday lunch today...

Sunday afternoon at 5pm. The food was excellent, as was its presentation. Our visit was complemented by knowledgeable and very friendly staff members - nothing was too much trouble. We couldn't fault a thing and will certainly return. Very many thanks!

Visited with my family for a reunion meal. Fantastic service and the meals were superb. Managed to satisfy a fussy eater, a child and a vegetarian :) Beautiful chicken and fantastic pie. Will be back again for sure.

Tale of two parts the food was good, the service! you can complain about something that does not exist. Sat down they came for a drinks order after about 10 minutes. Then we awaited and waited and waited and eventually (45 minutes) had to ask...

I was one of a group of friends staying here for the weekend, and as the first dinner was excellent, we booked in for the second. The menu caters s imaginatively for a range of customers , from pub-grub-lovers to those wanting something lighter/more 'refined'....

Even though the restaurant was really busy, we had hardly any wait, the food was excellent and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Can't fault the service, definitely the best place to eat.

What an amazing find , the George was outstanding. We ordered mushrooms and crayfish to start that was delicious. Mains we ordered two cod and a burger I’m speechless no words can describe how amazing the food tastes. Looking forward to our next visit.

Not used to using these little Bars as accommodation, however, I took a gamble and it paid off. The accommodations was just right for a weekend break clean rooms and friendly staff and perfect food.

I’ve been coming here for two weeks having stayed here for work. I can’t praise the venue, the staff, the food, the drink choices high enough. We’ll be back in the summer to see you again!

Fantastic!!! We stayed here for 1 night, we had some food from the menu in the evening was lovely, also breakfast was delicious, we was treated brilliantly great service, would definitely stay again 👌

The last time we visited here was about 10 years ago. We had a free night on Weds so we thought we would give it a go. So glad we did. We can't believe we've missed years of not coming here! We eat out quite...

A regular for us. Food is good. Open fire is lovely. Service friendly and professional. We keep going back for good reason.

I visited this place with a friend who lives in Kirton and recommended it. I had the cheese souffle as my starter which was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection and had a layer of sauteed onions at the bottom of the dish which worked wonderfully....
