The George & Dragon in Selby

What a great find! Perfect stop in our motorhome. Superb mixed grill and beautifully cooked medium rare steak for me. A chef who can actually cook as ordered. Homemade huge chunky chips and a side of onion rings. All very reasonably priced. 10oz of steak with no fat or chewy bits! Very friendly staff and super quick service even on a Friday night near Christmas. Will certainly keep note of this little gem for future travels in this area.

I came here with my wife and in-laws, both pensioners in their 70's and 80's. There were 5 adults in total and we were placed on a table in an alcove, which felt very cramped. We paid for our meals at the bar whilst ordering drinks at a very reasonable price. The pub offers small, regular or large meals at differing prices. My in-laws ordered small, my wife and I ordered regular, while my sister in-law ordered a large. We went to the carvery area where we had a choice of 3 meats carved by the chef, or we could chose all 3. I had turkey and gammon, which there was lots of both. The potatoes and vegetables were self service, and were plentiful and a good choice. I tried to only put small amounts of different veg on my plate, but still ended up with a hillock topped with tasty gravy. The small dinners were plenty for my in-laws and my sister in-law realised she didn't need a large. Overall, the service was very good, the drinks and food reasonably priced and the food was stunning. Would I come here again? YES, in fact we are back in the next few days but this time, alongside the group I have mentioned on here, there will also be 3 of my adult sons with their partners. Try it!

We found this lAbsolutely amazing little gem of a place whist on holiday for a couple days we regret not finding it sooner The staff are all extremely welcoming and friendly The place is really clean and well maintained The food is out out this world, all freshly made and well worth the wait ,excellent portion sizes two mains 4 drinks and pudding reasonably priced with a 10% discount Monday to Friday ! both me and my partner would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We’re looking forward to coming back to try other dishes on the menu very soon 🤤🤤🤤…….

Lovely place for a super Sunday lunch 😋

EXCELLENT. Warm welcome. Polite and friendly staff from the bar to waiter. Food cooked to perfection. Reasonably priced. £22 for my husband and I. Definitely visit again.

Good food Friendly staff Nice surroundings

My favourite place for Sunday carvery

Absolutely fantastic place, service and staff are amazing. Friendly atmosphere and beautiful traditional pub food.

Excellent straightforward food at a reasonable price 👍

Real nice local pub serving great food

Accommodated us at last minute after a long 11 hour journey and a child with additional needs. Lamb shank beautiful and kids loved the jacket potato's Thanks so much ❤️

We had a lovely, relaxed family meal with relatives from overseas. The portion sizes were generous, and the food was perfectly seasoned. It was a great experience to dine at a rare non-chain pub.

Lovely little pub. Very nice food and drink selection. Staff were fabulous.

Fantastic food and friendly service 👌

Great food good value for money

First time here today,we had a lovely Sunday carvery absolutely gorgeous, I will definitely be returning 😊

Called in today on our way to our holiday cottage we have for the next 2 weeks.Ordered food and drinks and sat outside with it being such a nice day. After only a few minutes the parasol on our table took off in a slight breeze I managed to catch it from hitting me in the face but not quick enough to stop it knocking my pint over. My wife reported the incident but they quite honestly couldn't be arsed, so I went in to see if they were going to replace my drink. When he finally managed to get off his laptop to answer me he said no as we can't control the wind. I said no but you should control your parasol as it was only sat in the hole by an inch at the best.So I got my money back for the food and walked out and will not be returning the rest of the 2 weeks of our holiday, we are going back next year but will stay well clear if this place unless there is a change in ownership. They don't even have desency to reply to the complaint

We've been there 3 times now. The first 2 visits, we had the giant Yorkshire puddings.....very good. This time, we had burgers.......awesome. we will definitely be going back again.

Lovely walk with the dogs round Whitley Bridge finished off with a wonderful meal at the dog friendly George & Dragon. Great menu with something for everyone, including the dogs. Friendly service. Definitely recommend a visit

This is an awesome pub Food is homemade, good portion sizes too The biscoff cheesecake OMG it's to die for

Lovely pub, great atmosphere and food was absolutely great and well priced. We were driving up the A1 and stopped off here in our camper for the night, it's free to pull up if you have some food or a drink and enough off the road at the back of carpark it's nice and quiet. Great stop up for the night, would highly recommend stopping here

We arrived at 2:48 and so were not able to order any food. We sat outside in the lawn area which was covered in litter from the weekend and had not been cleaned up. One of our party was a vegetarian but did not trust the menu as it listed fish and seafood as being vegetarian.

Went out of my way to grab meal there, arrived at 6.50pm to be told they had stopped serving food

Absolutely a gem of a stopover in our motorhome made to feel very welcome and had the nachos wow best ever we have tasted brilliant will definitely be back thanks 😊

Great hospitality, lovely pub and beer garden with a nice play area for the children. The carvery was really nice! Will definitely return.

Very nice place to eat, had lovely meal, thank you

We have an autistic child and the local residents gave us evil glares ut the landlord was was really nice food was great took a while to come to table but was well worth it .. would recommend to family's if you eat outside. As they have a great play area for kids .but if your kids are rowdy don't sit inside

Booked a table for 4, table ready when we arrived, service was very good and the food was excellent. Will be visiting the pub again 100%. Thank you all.

It was great, lovely food and the service was good.

Stopped here in the campervan on the way south and had a meal in the G&D. The food was exceptional, we had the Sizzler with peppercorn sauce and also the sweet Thai chilli sauce. The quality of the meal was amazing and the service provided by Andy and his team was second to none. I highly recommend this place and urge you to even make detour to visit. Thanks Andy. Graham

Beautiful food, couldn't fault it. However the amount of dogs in there was awful. No separate area so they were amongst all other guests eating. One barked a great deal and another table close to us couldn't control them so they ran all over the restaurant! The dogs were also on the seats at one point. We ended up with dogs on both sides of us within a few tables space. As we had a child with a dog allergy with us this wasn't good. Moving tables wouldn't have mattered as there appeared to be no dog free area ! We promptly left after our main course not stopping for dessert due to this. Very disappointing as the food was excellent, all fresh and tasty but we unfortunately won't revisit due to dogs.

Booked a table today, got there 10 minutes prior to the booking, they had allocated our table to someone else, the staff member who was very polite and really nice, ask would we mind taking a seat outside and she would call us when the table was free. We agreed and sat outside while having a drink. 30 minutes had gone, no call from the staff member, so I thought I'd take a quick look to see if our allocated table was free, success the table was free, so I place our drinks on the table as I could see the staff was busy and taking food orders, told my wife our table was free, by the time (less than 3 minutes) we returned to our table, our drinks had been removed and other drinks had been placed on it? So I went to the bar explained what had happened, I asked, had our table had been allocated to someone else? The reply was we needed to move people around, politely ask may we have another table, one was allocated, our drinks replaced but no apology. This is not a moan to get anyone in trouble, perhaps they need to look at their allocation of tables, especially when booked in advance.

Have been many times and have always had a great meal, today however was very disappointing. The meal took ages to arrive which wasnt an issue i just thought they had forgotten us, my husband had liver that was tough, my mother in law had scampy that tasted burnt, like the oil had gotten too hot. The steak and ale pie was awful, the pastry was burnt and hard, meat inside was dry. I received an apology and was told they were busy! So that's OK then. If this is the standard now we won't be returning. Very disappointing.

Great food friendly Staff plus good selection of gluten free will definitely go again gets very busy food takes a while to come but it's all cooked fresh

Lovely carvery and plenty of it. Downside....dog in eating area and up on furniture....

Great beer garden, ont A19 so handy to Bob in, wholesome pub grub

Went for an evening meal as we have been many many times and always enjoyed, however, unfortunately this time will be our last. There was no atmosphere, and when the young girl collected our plates after our meal, I explained that even though i ate my meal, it wasn't up to scratch I explained I left my rice as it was inedible due to being in the microwave for too long and the chicken in the curry was chewy. The young girl replied with " right " and just walked away, she didn't seem interested. Clearly the staff are either inexperienced or need customer service skills. It also used to be value for money but this is not the case anymore £10 for cherry bakewell or £11 for a nacho starter. Very over priced for a local pub

Amazing food and an amazing atmosphere. They have an amazing gluten/dairy free menu (double sided) with so many different options. I had the cheesy battered chicken breast (gluten free) and enjoyed it so much. Would 100% go again.

Really clean and tidy with a fantastic menu with a great choice of food and drinks would definitely recommend this place

Food was OK but late letting us in then kicked off our table before finished eating. *edit the online booking does allocate you an hour but when your still stood outside at 5past 12 then you don't actually get an hour to eat by the time you get sat at your table then wait to be called to the carvery. They did re allocate seating to give us more time after making us feel like pariahs for over staying. If we were just sat there hogging the table having finished I would have accepted it but my wife had literally 5 bites of food left and to Finish her drink. Both of us have worked in the service industry and appreciate how difficult it is and also how difficult us customers can be. But something like this should have been dealt with in back of house without making us feel in the wrong. If our table wasn't ready because you were late opening and you were as you say able to re allocate tables to give us more time then you should have done that without saying anything and 5 min later we would have left happy.

Nice pub. Nice food. Great place for kids to play & run about outside. (Play equipment a bit dated but serves a purpose, kids still love it). One other slight negative, the hand driers in the toilet are terrible, only blow weak cold air. Still a great place to come, will be back on our next bike ride.

Quiet on a lunch time but great food and efficient service ....

Excellent food, good beer, and a nice vibe. Highly recommended

Me and 3 others including my 7 months old daughter!!! went for food here we ordered in pairs one straight after the other at the till, one pairs food came and they nearly ate there food and we had not been served our food so i went up to ask where food was and as a reply i got, "dont you read signs?" Theres a sign on till saying "if food not oredered together wont be brought out together" i replied after reading the sign with weve never had problems like this before to then being threatened to get outside for a fight! I strongly advice for people to stay away from this venue was very nice place to go for food then the owners have got someone in who thinks himself a big hitter and threatens anyone who questions there order.. the man had obviously got a illegal steroid addiction and should not be in charge of a pub threatening folk just wanting to go in and eat with there family! I've rang the police on the matter and someone coming to take mine and the other 3 peoples statements! Be careful where you put your hard earned money people cause this place will not be getting a penny of mine from this day on.. disgusting!!!!

Easy to find on the route of a long journey. Friendly and helpful staff and despite having a large menu - which we worry can overstretch a kitchen- the food seemed fresh and was definitely very tasty.

Went with friends for birthday celebration. Out of a party of 5. 2 of us ordered mixed grill. All food took an hour to come. Mixed grill was the smallest mixed grill and miserable looking we have ever seen. Consisted of a small piece of gammon and smallest steak ever seen. Few pieces of diced chicken. Egg cup full of salad and half a dozen chips and 1 cheap nasty sausage. None of the other meals were up to par. We was too late to order desserts as service was so slow.One of our party complained and nobody seemed to do anything about our issues. Cutlery was bought out to our table on a filthy dinner plate with dried on food stuck to it. We will definitely not return or recommend.

Stopped here midway through a longish journey. Welcome was extremely warm and the food was delicious. Good value for money and large portion sizes. Will definitely be saving it as a destination if we are ever in this part of the world again.

Great pub grub and really good price with plenty of choice

We dropped in and I wasn't expecting too much but I was so wrong the food was lovely the service was excellent and we had a great time.

Great place. We had the stewed beef excellent. Really enjoyed it.

Fist time we have been here! I promise you will not be disappointed. Greeted by friendly staff and the food was delicious. Proper homemade pub grub!!! Complements to the chef!!! The manager Andy was a lovely bloke he came over and chatted when we had finished eating. The waitress was so nice she was always smiling and couldn’t do enough for you. Think we have found our main go too place. Will definitely be back! Can’t wait to sit in the beer garden in the summer. Thank you Kerry & family x

Amazing food and very reasonably priced. Sizzling chicken and king prawns amazing. Definitely recommend the chocolate brownie

Food arrived and was clearly warmed up, hunters chicken was chunks of diced chicken and did not have any bacon on it. My wife asked for sauce but never got any. The chef was keen to finish his shift (immediately after our meals were served). Cost nearly £20 for 3 drinks.

Not visited this lovely country pub in years, seen some lovely photos off their great food, was not disappointed. Great selection of food on the menu, different days there are some promotional prices too. Freshly cooked to order, great service, attentive staff, adjed if everything was ik with our meals, which it was. Lovely welcome walking in, surrounding were beautiful, clean modern, great kids outdoor play area when the weather is good,

We had our table booked in advance for our meal, got taken to the table 20 minutes after our booking time and then ordered food not too long after. After we ordered, we waited.. and waited.. and waited. It took just over an hour for our food to arrive, yes we were a table of 9, but other tables had arrived after and left before we even got our food. The meal in itself was tasty, not the greatest but for the price I can't complain. The only other gripe I do have is that two of our parties meals weren't available so switched to another meal which was cheaper, no offer made to give back the monetary difference, it had to be asked for - their preferred payment method card but for refunds give you cash. Overall a standard evening let down by a very long wait, don't think we'll make the trip again

Lovely food. New barman provided a great service for my mum's birthday meal. Would definitely visit again

Friendly pub with good food . Second time we visited this pub. Food is very good and prices even better. Nice selection of drinks too.

Best carvery I've had and really nice staff .

Good food good company staff a little stretched but all in all thankyou

Came here whilst visiting friends and the food and desserts were excellent, great price and great sizes. I had the Yorkshire wrap with sausages, what a good plate of food. Enough for 2 people I’d say but I ate it all. Puddings were good too - crumble and cheesecake were enjoyed too. Kids meals were good too.

Spot on. Home made Yorkshire puddings. 2 different types of potato, 10 different types of vegetables. Everything hot and spot on. Very tasty.

Lovley friendly staff great food excellent varied menu choice

Food excellent, we popped in on way back yo York

A place I love to eat, it’s local with a great menu, good offers , but most of all the food is lovely, and run by a fantastic team

Great pub, excellent food 👌 and you are well looked after and made very welcome.

Very poor service from staff. No welcome , a side order of food arrived when we had nearly finished the meal with no apology. Menus were not removed from the tables once we had ordered and instead they used them as placemats. No one came to ask if everything was ok with the meals. Food was ok but found it over priced for the portion sizes and service we received. Left feeling ripped off and we wont be visiting again.

Fantastic food, good portions, well worth the money, great attentive staff too. 10/10

This is the 2nd year we have met up with friends, prior to Christmas, for a 'get-together'. Pub is halfway for both parties so ideal meeting place. The food, once again was excellent, piping hot, good portion size & excellent value for money. The staff are very friendly & efficient - thank you for making it a special day.

Perfect atmosphere for couples / families looking for a quiet and comfortable pub with hearty and delicious food 👌🏻 As a vegetarian, I ordered the cauliflower and broccoli jalfrezi, and my partner ordered the salt and pepper battered chicken platter, and not only was the food absolutely delicious, but it's THE BEST pub food I have had in a loooooong time! Too stuffed to finish my meal, but the portions are definitely worth the price. Will be coming back again for sure 🙌🏻

Felt watched like you're not usually in here, type thing. But ok, I'm a local girl, just don't frequent the public houses often. Nice food, service OK and good prices

One of the best pubs I've been in really nice owners and staff, and the food was great and a good portion too, if your ever close by and want a drink or bite to eat stop here you won't be disappointed.

Booked here for a Sunday carvery & definitely wasn’t disappointed the food was lovely, never seen as much vegetables on a carvery , the staff very welcoming, will definitely be visiting again.

We stayed 1night in 2 berth caravan, they happily let us park. Food drink and atmosphere great with nice friendly staff. Coors on draught was excellent as was the steak pie. Thanks again

Nice village pub serving great quality pub grub and a good range of beers

Service was great by a wonderful lady. Food was beautiful. Bigger portion than I'm use to. Pudding next time.

With motorhome, stayed overnight in car park. Very handy stopover for m62. We had the evening meal. Good varied menu. Very nice and well cooked with great chips. Staff pleasant and friendly. I will definitely go there again when I am touring in that area. Thanks to all involved for making it a pleasant stay.

Beautiful food, great service. A fantastic choice for gluten free food too. Will definitely be going back

booked to go again so must be ok

Lovely cosy atmosphere. Biggest steak I had in a long time. Very well cooked.

Food is good and well priced with decent portions. Wish there were more options on the menu which is limited. Service has always been friendly.

Speedy service with a smile from karlee , received our food quickly would definitely recommend to friends in the area

2nd visit here, really good thanks.

Been a while since we last visited and very quiet for a Saturday night, Guess this is the norm for pubs these days 😒

We went for tea last Friday, with our small dog. We've been before and the chips do not disappoint.....but everything else did on this visit, I'm afraid. My husband had burger and chips and I had "sizzling" beef and black bean with chips and rice! The burgers were overcooked, really dry, Coleslaw seemed to be the cheapest, supermarket bought and salad from the 70's. He enjoyed an extra side of onion rings. My beef was not sizzling at all. Not surprising really as it seemed like the beef you get out of a tin (lovely when camping, not when paying over a tenner for it!). I had to ask the server for a spoon so I could serve myself the beef - she was asked this previously when another customer had the same dish.....you'd think the spoon would have therefore been delivered with the meat plate ......... A server asked if the meal was OK, I said it is just OK.......she walked away.... Not sure what happened last Friday G & D, I know you can do better!

Excellent value food, lovely staff, lovely garden and a nice children's play area, we will definitely use again if in the area. Only downside they don't have any real ale

Ordered a meat pie from the menu, received a slice. Trouble with slices the whole dish sits under a heat lamp, consequently dried up and burnt crust. If we go again will not be ordering a pie. Menu needs rewording.

Stopped off for a bite to eat as we were passing through. Staff were fantastic and really helpful. Sat outside at garden tables and a brolly was put up due to sun being blazing. Nice garden, lovely balcony all with a kids play area that doesn't impose. Would recommend a stop here.

Excellent place good food good selection of beers and free stop over for campers

Fantastic food and the staff are lovely. Also the best carvery we have had.

Great little pub/restaurant. Just off junction 34 M62 heading into Whitley. Had a Guinness and late lunch and it was great value and tasted fantastic 😋 I had a giant Yorkshire pud with sausage and veg.

Loved this pub bit in need of a re -furb but really lovely place great garden for children and dog friendly. We stayed overnight in our motorhome. Thank you to the landlord and staff for being very welcoming and the food was delicious. Hope to call back in the near future.

They did a great job working my party of 6 in. The pies, chips and mushy peas were outstanding. Recommend for the food!

Great carvery after a day at the races

Had beef Yorkshire pub the beef tasted like it was out of a Tin the salt had brown bits inside the fish looked like it was run over it was that skinny the coke was flat by time food come the lights had cobwebs all over them and the staff did not look like staff as was not in uniform they looked like they just been pick up of the street there was a man working round with his crusty toes out think he was the manger never Again will i step foot in there horrible

Excellent place we'll worth a visit

Excellent food with a varied choice, great beer garden and play area .service very good with a good choice of real ales all at reasonable prices 👌 ⁹

Stopped off for a bit of Sunday lunch, but they stop the carvery at 3 pm and start with bar meals at 4 pm. Waited for 10 mins till 400 and ordered sausage, mash, and giant Yorkshire puddingas well as lamb pie. Took a while due them to come, but the menu says everything is fresh cooked, so that was OK. Food was large portions that was good value for money and then some dessert for afters. I can recommend the cheesecake and the apple pie with custard.

Called in for a drink on our travels. OK place not brilliant. Very quiet. Went to ladies loos....like something back in the 1960s. Need modernising. Probably won't go back again.

Been visiting here a number of years and have recently been disappointed with the food and the service. They say on the phone line that they are open for food until 8:45pm on a Saturday eve. We got there at approx 8:25pm with another 20 mins spare to order food. There was only 4 people in the pub and was approached by a woman when we walked in who asked if we wanted food. I says yes and she politely said no, we have Closed early (8:30pm) as they weren’t busy. I said but it says 8:45pm when you call up on the automated service. She said I know. That was that. No offer of any service,drinks, just felt like they wanted to get home early. Won’t be in a rush to go again. We went somewhere else who happily stayed open for food for five minutes Extra so we could order main courses and deserts. We spent £85 at the place that helped feed us. Sooooo big mistake George!

Stopped here for a pint as the A1 was blocked and we were trying to get back home. Nice little pub with country views from the rear. Only had one pint so can't read comment an my apart from the fact that the owner was friendly and the beer wasn't reasonably priced for a country pub.
