The George and Dragon in Wiltshire

Lovely staff, great atmosphere. I gave the food 5 stars but didn't there to be honest. Looked great and was cheap. Great jam night with some hugely talented folk giving their all. Would love to come again though it's unlikely as we live 8 hours away and are only here to see the henge. All the other pubs we visited either lacked charm despite looking beautiful or were lacking something to make them unique. As a pub management couple we loved the effort, environment and atmosphere. You all should be proud. Best pub in Salisbury by a long way.

there for a wake staff where fantastic respectful and police food was good and it was a really good atmosphere

I was in the area to meet friends staying nearby so we popped in for lunch. Great food, great service and wonderfully dog friendly. Thank you!

Great English pub with rich historical roots.

I love g&d, they are super friendly to all and it feels like a country pub except it's in the middle of town. The food is always lovely and service is with a smile. I've lived in Salisbury pretty much my whole life and I'd say it's the best pub in Salisbury.

We loved it here, the beer garden was lovely and the lady behind the counter was fab so, friendly and chatted and plenty of games for our 5 year old

We had a great visit, the staff were very friendly and the food, drinks and service were very good. It was our first visit with our friends and we hope to have a return visit soon. Recommended.

Very nice place. We had lunch so there weren't the classic pub "people" but it's really welcoming! Good beers, especially the free-flowing ones. Definitely worth coming back in the evening because they have evenings with live music.

I pre-booked a table at the pub as it was my husband’s birthday and he wanted to go out for lunch somewhere different. We chose Salisbury as a different location from our normal places. Everything was fine we were greeted by a polite guy working behind bar and told our table was set up. We ordered a bottle of wine and sat at our table. Ordered our meals only to be told after about 10 minutes that the lamb shank ordered wasn’t available which is my husbands favourite, and reason he chose the pub (with it being St George’s day too) We accepted the apologies from guy behind bar and he ordered the sausage and mash and I had ham egg and chips which was okay, nothing special but we ate it. On paying the bill my surprise was the charge of £23 for a bottle of Pinot Grigio Blush which I thought was very pricey for a pub, we probably won’t return here again, food was average and wine was expensive.

Lovely spot for lunch with friendly staff and delicious food

Warm and friendly traditional pub. We are regular visitors to this lovely pub. It could be for just for a chilled afternoon in the lovely garden, which has a bar for special occasions and a lovely seating area, to watch the river Avon go by. We especially look forward to meeting our family here for a Sunday roast. We often enjoy a tasty homemade burger, the food is fresh, and it is presented beautifully. There is something for everyone, Dietary requirements, happily catered for. I would like to mention one particular member of the lovely team, Anna . Anna is exceptionally welcoming and always cheers me up after a hard day at work. She's so bright and cheerful! I highly recommend . Also, dog Friendly.

Service was excellent and food was delicious. A great stop before heading into Salisbury City Center. My boys had burgers and rack of ribs, while we enjoyed the fish and chips. Great cask beer as well.

Live music on a Sunday in a really friendly bar👌🏻

A busy Sunday lunchtime and our party of 6 adults and 2 young children was served with friendly efficiency. The food was hot and well-cooked and both vegetarians and meat eaters agreed it was the best meal we’d had out for a long time. Sadly we are not local so may not visit again for a long time. A beautiful classic old pub. Highly recommended.

It was great to stop in for food and have a great conversation with Phil.

We only went for drinks so can't judge the food however we were served by Phil he is a lovely young man who seems to be very passionate about his job. He spoke to us and made us feel very welcome. This is the first time me and my partner have come here and we'll definitely recommend it we will definitely be coming back again when we can. The atmosphere is very chilled vibes and relaxed. Phil made me his favourite cocktail a spicy one and it was very good I would rate this 5 stars based on this alone

We had a great time. Came in second in the quiz.

My wife, son , daughter in law and granddaughter went for an early dinner in the George and Dragon. A greeting or cheery disposition would be appreciated from bar staff. The food , burger/chips, Fisn/chips, chicken nuggets, were moderate in the extreme. George would not have liked it and I don’t even think the Dragon would have been very impressed! Enough said. I don’t know why these establishments bother serving food.

Came here to play Dungeons and Dragons, and Phil (who I think is the owner?) was very lovely and allowed me to purchase a kid's meal, because that's all I could afford. He was happy for me to have a kid's meal and didn't stipulate that you can only get them up to a certain age, which a lot of places do. The scampi, chips and beans was tasty, hot, arrived quickly and filled a Half-Orc sized hole. The Dragon Sunrise cocktail was delicious and a great deal of £7, too! And I didn't even have to fight a Dragon for it! Phil was easy going and laid back and we learnt about the history of the pub. The decor was great, from dragon paintings, to swords, a shield, a Welsh dragon (bonus points from this Welshie!) and lots of beer labels and stickers on the walls/bar posts, and even in the toilets. It immediately felt welcoming; how a tavern should be, and no undesirables, such as Necromancers or Goblins on site. This Half-Orc and Human Companion had a great time and both will definitely be back, for the food, the company, and the booze. (And probably another D&D session.)

Great pub! Why weren't you there? Sunday funday brings open mike night ..

Amelie was amazing, the best bartender ever and completely changed our Salisbury experience! The music was a vibe and after many pubs where the vibe was rubbish, this pub was the place to be. Thank you Amelie.

Sunday Roast - booking at 5pm, roast was AWESOME 😍 dog friendly pub, staff super accommodating, love it! Will be back next Sunday.

Great pub, amazing food especially the burgers. Spoilt for choice for the vegetarian options. Staff were friendly and had lovely atmosphere and music. Cannot recommend enough, will definitely be returning if in Salisbury again :)

Beer was expensive but it was open mike night and the free entertainment was excellent so no complaints

Lovely hot fresh food a very good pint of legend nice staff and good service and not bad prices, thankyou

Came by chance for a Friday Lunch on a very cold January day. Friendly barman offered to let us sample from a choice of real ales before purchase. Home cooked beer battered fish and chips for me and ham egg and chips for my husband followed and was really nicely prepared and most generous in portions. We hope to return and look forward to trying the outdoor seated garden when the weather improves.

Nice looking pub, the staff were friendly. But the food was a real let down. Probably better out of Tesco's, and the kids meals (pizza's) were nearly inedible. Good array of drinks.

Probably one of the best pubs in Salisbury. Their food is awesome, the staff are amazingly friendly and helpful and the atmosphere is great. They have a really active series of live music nights as well as a really friendly open mic night.

Wonderful food and the favourite gets sold out. The atmosphere is of a folk music theme. The staff are the best we experienced the whole weekend .

Lovely food, the Salt & Pepper Squid was cooked perfectly as was the Lamb Shank Roast, both were very tasty. The service needs a bit of tweaking, asking if people had finished their food is good, but check on drinks as well. They missed out on a couple of rounds. Overall it was a really nice night, food was great and the atmosphere picked up when the live music kicked in.

Sunday lunch, the place was empty. Tables were sticky. Ordered a roast which consisted of one thick slice of chicken, a soggy Yorkshire pudding, an inch of stuffing and veg which didn’t taste fresh. Overpriced and disappointing.

Friendly service, nice traditional look and decent food and a decent selection of beer. I'd happily eat here again and try something more than the pretty good BLT I had this time.

Great local. Barperson serving us knew his/their stuff and was very pleasant. I'd like to go back to try the peanut butter scotch. Nice pint of Butcombe.

Decent little drinkers pub. Excellent food too

Perfect delicious food. They even made something special after asking, very polite guy.

We had a wonderful lunch there today and the lamb was truly spectacular. I would huge recommend this place for beverage and something to eat.

Really kind staff here who made our night just perfect. I was visiting with a friend, and we sat in the garden that backs beautifully on to the river. The kind staff turned on some wonderful lights and we had a great evening. Thank you! (Also, the lamb here is DELICIOUS!)

Great place. The staff are really nice. The meals are larger portions at a decent price.

Honest, down-to-earth and good food!..Inexpensive too!. Highly recommended. Staff very friendly.

Great pub in Salisbury Good beers Good food And the Thursday night quiz was top level

Excellent evening watching Solarbird! Great band, great pub

Couldn't go into the rear garden overlooking the river due to a wake but lovely none the less. Dog friendly for those with furry friends.

I cannot sing high enough praises for the food here. It was all beautiful, huge portions, and at such a reasonable price. The service was friendly and welcoming, and there was also a band playing.

We couldn’t have had a better experience. Koerie was the most attentive server, couldn’t have done more for us! Food was lovely, little wait time and just overall outstanding service! Would definitely recommend

This beautiful pub serves the best cask ale I’ve tried and is ran by wonderful staff. The food is also surprisingly good.

Absolutely spot on service. After telling the barmaid Poppy of my gluten allergy she diligently obliges with extra hand hygiene. All the bar staff are friendly and top dollar.

Delicious vegan food. Good beer in cool colorful glasses.

Pub with relaxing atmosphere and friendly service. We ordered 2 vegan dishes that were hearty and tasty, along with a sweet cider.

Great pint of Wolfback. Good beer garden backing on to the river.

This was our first visit to The George and Dragon and most definitely will not be our last. The menu was not only varied, catering for meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans, the prices were incredibly reasonable. The lunch menu offered two ciabatta sandwiches for £12 so in this cost of living crisis, it makes eating out that little less stressful. The warm welcome we received from Keith was not only genuine but also made the visit more memorable. His customer service was exceptional and he was warm and bubbly and friendly. Nathan was the chef on shift and the food was exquisite. I had the BLT ciabatta which was delicious. Perfectly cooked bacon, not greasy or fatty like you can get in some pubs. The garden seating area is so tranquil and peaceful it adds a touch of something extra. Thank you guys for a wonderful family lunch…10/10 all round. We’ll definitely be back. If you are looking for quality food at reasonable prices and fantastic service… head straight here.

Just went for a beer, Great beer garden

Not bad for a last minute booking having béeen let down by our hotel. Typical pub food..value for money. The live music was an extra which we didn't need but it was good that we atleast got a meal with not much notice.well done george and dragon.

Good food, but seems like delays for larger groups. Small interior, and live events which some may like, cause issues if you want to eat and talk. A good place though. No parking though.

Large outdoor eating space. There are no issues with this pub on this visit.

A really great old English pub with excellent food. Staff very friendly. Beer was also very good and I was immediately given some samples so I could choose the right beer. We recommend.

Nice pub. Does a good quiz on a Thursday

Went in on Saturday and has gone downhill since our last visit. 5 people queuing around the bar (why queue at a bar!!), service was very slow so we left and there was a man behind the bar with long hair and wearing lipstick and eye liner!

Great atmosphere at the karaoke night. They also have a pool table!

Quiant little pub with a decent Sunday roast for a great price.

Didn't eat here but cosy little pub staff were friendly and live band were very good 👍

A friendly welcome and nice drinks. The food was super, loved the lamb shank! The atmosphere is warm and the decor quirky. We had a meal before going on to the theatre and it was the perfect start to our evening.

We are not local to the area and just popped in for a quick drink. The staff were warm and friendly and the food was fantastic. They also served a perfect pint of Guinness!

Good well priced hearty food. Nothing flash. Lovely old historic pub. 2 ales on. Games, books, great juke box. Good music 🎶 cosy.

Cory the barman was the most welcoming and gracious host absolutely fantastic service. Food was lovely and we had a brilliant chilled night playing board games. When we visit Salisbury next we will definitely be returning!

Good boozer, a bit out there, friendly atmosphere and attentive staff

Amazing experience for a 40th birthday party. Was able to use the hut out back would looks lovely anyway but was aloud to decorate. Brilliant price on buffet style food mix of hot and cold. Staff where brilliant and helped with anything that was needed ! Could not recommend this place more.

Lovely old pub great atmosphere and service Barman outstanding. Fully recommend this venue for food drink and ambiance Koerie was brilliant thank you 🤩

Great spot for lunch with the family - excellent value for money - good portion sizes Dog friendly

A warm welcome on a wet day for a small party of adults and children meeting in Salisbury after travelling long distances. Children provided with toys - just the thing for a wet day. Food and drinks excellent and exceptional service from the young man from behind the bar. We were not rushed and all went well. Highly recommended for families. In good weather there is the opportunity to use the pub garden which runs down to the river.

Cory couldn’t have been more perfect as Barman and host for the evening. He used his charm, skill and respectful personality to make sure we and those around us had the perfect evening. He was working hard, but took time to make us feel special as visitors to the town. The meal was delicious and I’d fully recommend this quirky, traditional old fashioned inn with a twist of the original. Thank you so much.

Popped in for a pint, was greeted with fantastic live music with a twist! Can highly recommend going on Sunday evenings assuming the live music is a regular event! Great pint of Guinness too to top it off

The staff here were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable about the products and dishes served. They made great suggestions for places to go in the city and made the time here a hugely pleasant experience. Would thoroughly recommend.

Great vibes here - staff are friendly and kind! Drinks are glorious - two for one cocktails for £12, great deal!!

Great vibe and drinks, and really welcoming staff

Not a very good experience I'm afraid. Quite cold and not very inviting. Food tasted good but later I had an upset stomach. Probably better in the summer when you can sit outside.

Large and open pub with a garden that stretches a long way back to the river Avon. Plenty of seating inside and out, with covered areas for inclement weather. Nice selection of beers and friendly staff.

L'ambiance était très bonne, nous sommes tombés un soir de quiz et c'était amusant. Le personnel est très serviable. C'était un bon repas de pub, rien de sophistiqué mais très bon et copieux !

This place is mint. Great in the summer. Nice and cost on the winter. The guy behind the bar with the long black hair has the best customer service skills I have ever experienced. Legend. Keep up the good work mate.

Visited a month or so ago and enjoyed the atmosphere and food. Popped in today whilst shopping with my sons, 12 and 15 ( older sons request as he enjoyed his food so much last time) we had a really lovely welcome again, lovely bar man, food really tasty again and enjoyed a couple of the games on offer. We will definitely visit again, recommend the 3 dishes for £12, great value. Thank you.

An absolutely horrible pub, having gone in there once to initially book a gig new in town I accidentally broke a piano lid….went back to apologise and offered to pay to repair the damage to the lock but one half of the landlords (nick) is clearly someone who likes a bit of a power trip….. Went back in over a year later with some friends and played some music….still barred 😂😂😂 Then a load of its rather childish clientele including a member of his staff wrote a dis-track making fun of illnesses like addiction (ironic when they sell alcohol) when we tried to book a Sunday lunch in there with a local business as a peace offering. The food is ok but the front of house are pretty dire and people regularly report the beer being off, but they refuse to change it.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch served by two extremely polite knowledgeable young people

Cracking little boozer in Salisbury, the staff are friendly and professional. Didn't eat in but the food did look and smell good. Definitely be back to sample their food and more beer. Good job guys 👍👌

Amazing pub classicals. Loved it!

Nice looking pub. Ok for a beer. Terrible for food. Garden looks nice

Awful. Beer was discusting Took one sip ,clearly off it stank and was cloudy,the bar person rufued to change for any thing else because " it can't be off the barrels no empty" So I left .Terrible.lf you want a good beer this is not the place for you .

Absolutely awful .Had a pint of real ale ,took one sip and tasted off and was cloudy.I asked for a replacement ale ,I was told that as the keg was not empty it was ok .These people have no idea how to look after there beer . My advice would be to try elsewhere in the street.

Ich habe nicht gegessen, kann es daher nicht bewerten. Ansonsten ist es eine schöne gemütliche Kneipe

Lovely atmosphere a great band playing and a good selection of well priced cider which was great as I am gluten free!

Friendly place to grab a pint and meet the locals!

Wahnsinnig gutes Essen, sehr netter Service und tolles Ambiente. Die Location hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Absolute Empfehlung. 😋🤗 Nettes Plus: Es wird einmal die Woche ein Gamingabend gemacht, wo man Brettspiele jeder Art spielen kann. Jeden Tag gibt es was anderes zu erleben.

Late decision to get a bite to eat, friendly face at front door welcomed us in. Great bar man happy to advise & help … although fella stretched to cover all inside & out but wow he did remarkably well 👏🏻👏🏻 … good food & great portions … in brief we’ll be back 👌

I go every Monday for their gaming evening. Lovely staff, good food, and a nice atmosphere.

Great local place. Great food. Nice people.

the food is very good and fresh .and the employees are super respectful

Fantastic, attentive service, excellent food, decent beer. Nothing to complain about.

Excellent service, staff were attentive, kind, helpful and went out if their way to ensure we had a good lunch and drinks. We were there all afternoon as it was so nice. We had planned to go elsewhere but it was so welcoming and lovely, we stayed until 9pm!!

Sólo pasamos a tomar una pinta, el camarero nos recomendo un par de cervezas, supereducado y profesional, nos ofreció comida y preguntó si todo estaba bien... El local es precioso y pintoresco, al fondo tiene una terraza.

Great pub with friendly staff and great food. Loved the outdoor seating options. Definitely they type of place I’d be a regular at.

Wir waren zum Abendessen im George and Dragon. Meine Freundin hatte Fish and Chips, die sie super lecker fand. Ich hatte die Lammkeule, die ich etwas wenig gewürzt und geschmacksarm fand, ausserdem war das Fleisch quasi zerkocht, was mir nicht so zusagte. Das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam und freundlich!
