The George in Vale of White Horse

Good range of ales and ciders, and a decent looking deli counter inside too.

Short stay, cozy little place with an outdoor seating and a good selection of local brews. Forgot which one i had but it was great.

Charming pub with nice selection of beverages available. Pleasant, relaxing and clean. Cheerful, helpful bar staff. Will visit again when next in the area.

An excellent pint of Guinness, great atmosphere and service.

Excellent pub for a drink and a wide selection of real cider! They also sell a wide selection of chutneys and scotch eggs and pork pies. Well worth a visit.

Great rural pub in the fabulous village of Sutton Courtney. Lovely atmosphere too . Recommended 😊👌🍻

Stopped for a pint. Didn't eat but others were eating from the pop up pizza van. Busy evening with lots of locals

Stunning village pub with a great atmosphere.

Lovely old building with cosy log fire. Stopped in for a midday pint on a walk from Didcot to Abingdon which was very nice.

No atmosphere ,voted pub of year and no heating

A really beautiful quaint quiet pub in a beautiful village. Great beers on tap and a proper lovely local vibe.

Great pub with friendly welcoming atmosphere from all staff

Great pub in the heart of the village, really good range of beers , very clean bar area and a Greek food van outside as a special food night on the Friday that we were there

Had the Abingdon bitter... Delicious. Beef crisps.

Excellent part of the Orwell Society could not recommend highly Enough

Very pleasant barman Jordan served nice pint of ale, they have a delicatestan there with very reasonably priced chutneys etc

Great japanese pop up kitchen tasty food

Lovely pub and nice staff. No meals available but they regularly have guest businesses who serve food either inside or outside the pub.

Stopped off for a drink on a family walk with the dog. Pub very pretty and traditional, full of locals and everybody was very welcoming. The dog got a fuss too! No food except for bar snacks but I know they do pizza nights.

Lovely pub with its quaint deli. Lovely place to visit.

A good pint, a warm fire, and huge sausage rolls. Top marks from me.

Agree with previous posts, It would be nice if the staff p.rioritised customers rather than pointedly being more absorbed by their mobile phones. Please understand that the customer alway has the option of going somewhere else to spend their money.

Abrupt, bordering on rude staff member, more eager to explain what they didn't do (tea/coffee/food) than what they did! Black hot water, described as coffee, served in a cardboard cup and a poor tasting pint of Abingdon Bridge (I don't think it leaves Loose Cannon like that). No plans to return, ever. Completely underwhelmed. 2 stars given for the location and decor.

Nice "wet lead" pub. Local produce pantry with pickles jams etc

First rate pub in a village in Oxfordshire on the Cask Marque Ale. a Grade II listed 16th century pub. This reviewer approached the place on a small craft via the River Thames (a very agreeable way to travel the Trail) to continue his travels on the biggest ale trail in the world. The beer? Two local brews were tried, Abingdon Bridge and Rude Not To, were both in excellent condition and well deserving the Accreditation awarded. Worth several more visits.

Was served by a wee lad by the name of Sparrow I think it was, who was very helpful and polite, he told me tales of the wild west that brought a tear to my eye and inspired me to quit my full time job at the post office (which I had worked for for forty-two years). The atmosphere of the George was exhilirating and I felt as if I had been reincarnated as one of the twelve disciples. Overall, was a religious experience that I would recommend to all.

Lovely Abingdon beer, and lovely seating area overlooked by the church tower at the back.

Beautiful pub, and home made food

Really liked this local pub. Nice garden too.

Great hotel staff rooms food and staff great

Great local pub, lovely atmosphere

Great atmosphere and fantastic beer. Sat outside in beer garden for ages!!

My friend and I were the first in at midday. The landlord was friendly and served us drinks. We sat outside under the large canopy, it started to pour rain heavily but we remained dry! All in all just a brief lunchtime half of "Abingdon Bridge", but very nice and we will be back.

It nice pub in the ancient village of Sutton Courtenay

Enjoyed a drink with family in the beer garden . Drinks arrived at our table very quickly after ordering. Well organised & Covid safe.

Great village pub, and good outdoor seating. Service was lightning quick when busy, with option to order via WhatsApp.

Great atmosphere, always enjoy a drink in the nicely decorated bar areas, or in the beer garden - feels like you're entering another century as the garden is surrounded by old church and the old pub roof. Although food isn't served, before Covid they did delicious bar snacks such as scotch eggs - this pub benefits from not being yet another restaurant-pub.

Brilliant little pub. Only let down weren't doing food. It understandle due to covid 19

Welcomed and good local beer on tap.

Great staff. Happy to help, especially since opening after lockdown. Friendly local atmosphere

Really kind and attentive staff, looks nice, garden still a work in progress, nice small bites, will come back for Friday evening drinks

Dog friendly, everyone friendly place for a drink. ( Snacks available but no meals)

Proper country pub, nice beer, definitely to be recommended!

Typical country pub with 2 bars. One for the locals and one for everyone else.

A good friendly pub serving local ales

Lovely food and staff, especially the burger

No greeting upon entering the establishment, when stood at the bar and asking what beers are on tap, the barman glared at me.....nice! Table and chair arrangement is very snug. Occasional visit. Shame, as the pub has just opened under new management.

A pleasant surprise this place turned out to be. It's a quintessential English village pub, very clean and presentable. The drinks on offer were all varied and of good quality and the beer poured was excellent. It's a lovely place to sit, warm and inviting and has a nice friendly atmosphere. Great pub all in all.

Four of us called in to the George & Dragon for lunch, while on our journey from Southampton to a nearby hotel. We'd been caught in a traffic jam on the A34 for nearly two hours, so we decided to stop at the next country pub we came across. . . and this just happened to be the George and Dragon. We arrived late into their usual lunch time and we were met by Jackie the landlady, who kindly accommodated us with a table, while her partner Phil (we assume joint landlord?) cooked our meals. The menu was minimal but the food was just what we needed. . . it was tasty, cooked to order and great value. . . We were pleasantly surprised! I wouldn't pay too much attention to some of the previous (bad) reviews about this pub. I would suggest that some people expect far too much. . maybe what they are accustomed to, rather than to 'go with the flow' ! I liked the fact that Phil was dressed casually in.a short-sleeved shirt, shorts and beach-type sandals. . .especially as it was mid October! . . and Jackie was wearing a pair of slippers! This all made it feel like we'd been invited into their own home and were being treated to their hospitality. . and entertainment. We all found Phil and Jackie to be very pleasant and likeable people. This really is a traditional 'locals' pub but also welcoming to 'outsiders'. That said, I do feel that the place needs a bit of 'updating' and the garden area could do with a 'makeover' but . . .we will definitely make an effort (or even a detour) to call in here again when next in the area. A great 'thank you' to Phil and Jackie

Really great Ale and really great Ploughman's lunch. Nephew and Niece enjoyed their Nachos! Great friendly service, nice pub! Cheers!

I dropped into the pub for a quick beer with my son and I have to say it was most unwelcoming. The person who served me didn't look up from their phone. The bar was really unwelcoming to the point of intimidating. The language being used by the person serving me when talking to some of the customers was terrible. Given I had my son with me, the is not acceptable. Really wanted to find a nice place for a beer in such a nice village, clearly this is not the right place. I would not recommend this pub.

Nice traditional pub with beer garden, some good. A nice stop during a bike ride with kids

Nice pub inside. Good food and beer. Beer garden is a bit shabby.

Stopped on my motorbike ride for a sandwich. Nice sandwich and very friendly.

Having been our local for over 10 years after countless ownership changes this poor country pub is a utter shambles. Poor staff which zero manners more concerned with talking to local council workers in for a lunch break, than say hello thank you or please. So dissapointing, take a look at yourself owners!!!!!

Very friendly people we requested something that wasn't on the menu and they did it for me 👍well done Jackie

We paid £9.45 for a piece of supermaket gamon on a flat grill which was like a chewing gum, two eggs and some side salad. Looks like the owners are doing food themselves during quiet periods which is not a bad idea as long as they can cook properly which is not the case here. Also, not very interested in us as customers, somehow indiferent and this considering we were the only customers in that pub. Also, lack of attention to details. The stake comes with chips, we asked one to be replaced with side salad but they replaced both. We asked for mayo and ketchup and they brought only ketchup. Location is ok, garden is nice.

Small old pub with a larger than you'd expect garden. TV screen and fruit machine, lacking proper refrigeration for a rush on bottle beers but very friend.

Amazing food reasonable prices lovely bar lady

Under new management wot a nice warm welcome.the food is amazing and such nice flavours I had the oxford sausage with home maid mash peas and onion gravy. And that are dog friendly will be going back for dinner again

Don't bother to read earlier reviews - the pub is under new management. We arranged to hold a wake there yesterday after the funeral of my mother-in-law. For us the whole experience was faultless and having our own room was very much appreciated. A generous and excellent hot/cold buffet was provided – with a comprehensive variety of tasty food, including dairy free, which was enjoyed by all. Nothing was too much trouble for Phil, Jackie and their colleagues. So, on behalf all 40+ of us, we would like to thank new landlord Phil, Jackie & Co. Liz & Mike

Great local pub. Excellent food

Ffriendly staff and prompt service.

Great - excellent staff, service and food

Lovely friendly welcome dog friendly will definitely recommend

Brilliant food. We came 10/12/2018 and the new manager made us feel so at home and welcome. The food was beautiful and well worth the money. So glad to see the pub doing well.

Who knows I only drove past on my way home.

I was surprised and relieved to learn that this place came under new management a few weeks ago. The previous owner almost ran it into the ground through incompetence (the fluxipub group owned by Gary Flux if you're interested). Now the G&D has new interior decoration, friendly staff, a roaring fire and a well stocked bar. So don't be put off by negative feedback from the past year or so, it really is a cracking village green pub.

Nice old country pub with good staff

Would have given zero stars if the option existed. They totally lack any interest in their cxustomers. We booked for a meal at 7.30 pm a week ago last Wednesday. Sometime after 6pm they phoned to say that they had power supply problems, would be unable to cook food and suggested re-booking. Fine, probably out of their control. We re-booked for 7.30pm the following Wednesday. When we turned up the pub was closed and some external decorators were painting the bar. We had not been told the pub would be closed and, according to the decorators, neither had a number of other people that turned up that evening. This is just not acceptable behaviour! We wandered a little way down the road and had an excellent meal at The Swan (thoroughly recommended and somewhere that I shall be awarding five stars).

Like this pub in Sutton Courtenay as my father lives in this village. I can ride my heavy old bike to the village, visit my father and call in this pub on the way home. Friendly staff and regulars.

Friendly staff, good food, nice atmosphere, good value.

Went with a Groupon and it was fantastic food

The only place to eat and drink. Very friendly,superb food and a very welcoming place to visit

Best pudding I have had this year. Though the staff are friendly and relaxed they were not ready to serve. Also there dog sitting there starring at you while you eat is not good, as he snorts at you. Taken away via kitchen area

Don't bother. Walked for 20 mins from river to visit. No draught beer, limited bottle stock. Stale peanuts .No lights in lol. Needs a good clean and bringing into 2018. Give it a miss.

Really nice friendly pub my mate k.t brought me nice birthday lunch we eat in a lovely cottage pub garden

Stopped in twice while staying in the village, and the service, atmosphere, and cider were all excellent.

Nice spot next to church Garden area feels unloved East Coast IPA just what was needed in 30 Deg.C.

After having to wait 10 minutes to be shown to our table the service was rather slow. The food is ok but they let their dog wander around the restaurant begging at the tables for food. We had to ask the owners to remove the dog twice from around our table. We will not be going back again.

Overpriced drinks. Garden with one parasol despite being a very hot day. Not surprised it was nearly empty.

Nice pub considering Its in the middle of nowhere interesting

Lovely friendly pub. Lunch was huge and worth the wait. Will be back 🍻🍔😝

Too much salt on the food. Should have the condiments on each table. We also waited 1hour for our order

Went for Sunday Dinner – was left waiting a very long time between courses with no real attention from waiting staff. Starters were very tasty. The Roast Dinners were unusual. After 2 hours, a plate of brown arrived…very dark brown Roast Potatoes (verging on burnt) with dark brown Parsnips, dark brown beef and dark brown Yorkshires, dark brown gravy and pile of not-brown green rocket in the middle (never had rocket on a Sunday Roast before). The rest of the veg turned up on side plates. One of which was Cauliflower cheese and the other was Cabbage and Courgettes (never had Courgettes with a roast before). The beef looked as though it had been reheated at some point but can’t be 100% certain and was slightly tough and grisly. Because the whole thing was very brown there the whole meal had an undertone of burnt bitterness. Overall not the best Sunday Roast I’ve had but not too bad either. Was a bit disappointed as had heard this was good now.

Nice little Village pub good, beer and food

This used to be our regular spot, we stopped going down to other commitments, it's under new hands but found the chef very accommodating to a vegan diet and the staff are friendly in this lovely pub as always.

Often go out of my way to eat here, lovely staff and a great atmosphere.

‪Great Great restaurant . New chef making a name for himself.‬ Especially good Fish pie and risotto Rob

Lovely Friendly Atmosphere! And nice locals

Didn't want a big meal, just some bread and cheese for two walkers on Monday when The Fish was closed. No bread other than stale rolls from yesterday. No ploughman's. Opted for vegetable soup, which was dishwater with a few bits of onion floating around and some soggy tasteless doughballs. Disappointing.

Lovely food and well presented. Good service . Xx

Brilliant little pub in an amazing village

Food was much improved since my last visit in January 2017. Choice of a few real ales and a pleasant beer garden make this a good place for a drink on a summer's evening or a casual dinner.

Gorgeous country pub with a lovely garden.

Food was expensive for what it was, but it is good. Have no idea why playing 90s trance was the decision for a Friday lunch in a country pub. Still a good little pub.

Very nice, food took a while but was worth it

Lovely relaxed pub that serves nice wine.

Good food and service and very cosy

Very disappointing, the steak and chicken in the mixed grill was very dry and over cooked. Wasn't asked how i like my steak, which is meadium rare! My wife was served TINNED potatoes with a tart that had soggy pastry. To top it off the glasses were not very clean.
