The George & Dragon in Cheshire East

Appalling. Noisy. CHildren running wild around tables where people trying to eat and drink. Screaming baby, loud music, inaudibly horrid. Don't go. Won't be there again any time soon. Awful, what a shame. Used to be a lovely pub.

Very disappointed. Met my friend for a meal We both had fish and chips. Very fatty and unpleasant taste. Won’t be returning.

Burger here was £18. For this I got a dry/bland patty and an awful 'pretzel bun' that was bitter and really didnt work (that's the pretentious bit) and some soggy, underdone fries. That's it, no frills just a straight ahead poorly executed burger with a nonsense choice of bun. Drinks, as always, way overpriced here. The George at least is consistent as every meal I've had there has been under par and overpriced.

Gathering g Just lovely xx Mum and I couldn’t manage 2 courses , the mains were enough !! Beef for me , pork for mum , plus a bit of cauli cheese !! Homemade and bubbling !! Just lovely x An Americano for mum with a little flapjack on the side . Emma our host was absolutely lovely ❤️ Will certainly consider a family Boxing Day gathering , as we did last year xx

It’s OK. Good is average. Service is quite good and polite efficient although one server was pretty expressionless. Sunday menu was OK, but poor vegan choice. And the main pasta meal was basic, dull and little effort. The roast was good.

Without a shadow of doubt the worst meal I have ever experienced roast potatoes must have been cooked last week roast belly pork was whiter then the napkin not a hint of it being roasted veg that was so wilted it was almost string, the whole thing was awash with a gravy that the poor girl serving had to balance too ensure it stayed on the plate , if I could have given it zero I would

Food was amazing and service was incredible!! Can’t wait to return! Our Dogs enjoyed the attention from the staff in the lovely beer garden!

Very poor 50th meal celebration. Food came out wrong. Menu not representative of food. Staff not well trained (e.g. it took 3 of them to seat us, had to take our food order twice). Asked the birthday guest if he was ready for the surprise birthday cake - spoiled it! Asked for a salad and got only lettuce, so asked for some other salad and we were given 3 slices of cucumber and 1.5 cherry tomatoes. I wouldn’t recommend this place.

Absolutely amazed at the price of a glass of wine. A wine and a pint came to over £18! No way were our drinks worth that outlay.

The food was generally quite average with one of the dishes making me really quite ill. It seems there's lots of effort being put into making the dishes look beautiful, at the expense of the quality of the food itself. If you don't mind paying top £££ for £ food then take some imodium and good luck

Fantastic, just went for our 35th Wedding Anniversary for a private moment... food was a wonderful selection. Service was from lovely staff who made you feel very welcome, thanks especially to Stacy, Bronwen and Ella. We will definitely be back. 😊

What a great pub this is, not too large and not to small. The staff are absolutely fabulous, we had an exceptional meal today, service second to none. Definitely worth a visit. Excellent food, well presented and good choices. Beer and wine served just as it should be nice and cold.

Boxing Day Lunch with the family . Just excellent . Mum and I chose from the Festive Fayre Menu , Tomato and Burrato salad for me , prawn cocktail for mum . ( no starters for the others ) Rack of Lamb x2 , Halloumi Kebab , and some posh cheese on toast . Food was lovely and the service from Isabella was exceptional . Thank you all for a very enjoyable 2 hours with family , both my brother and I wotk in hospitality and are aware of the pressures . Great job , guys !! We live in the village and will certainly be back ! Every good wish for the New Year x

Outstanding service and hospitality was given to me by Martin Barnes, proprietor of the George and Dragon last week. Unfortunately I found myself at the wrong George and Dragon prior to a family funeral in Cheshire. Martin tried to get me a taxi to the correct village, well to the north. When this failed he grabbed his car keys and unhesitatingly drove me north, just in time for the funeral. I’m so grateful and commend Martin for his support. I fully intend to return with my family and enjoy more of his hospitality.

Average pub food ,wine very expensive food not cheap either Same as the dining area is nice but lots of room for improvement

Very nice looking pub/restaurant located in village centre. Nicely decorated inside which provides a relaxing atmosphere. Prices of drinks are a little on the high side.

Drove up from south Midlands aiming to get here at a reasonable time for an evening meal (had eaten here before). Walked in at 20.22 As we got to the bar, we heard the barman tell a couple in front of us that the kitchen was now closed!! It WAS a Monday evening but, if they have decided to go part-time early in the week, might be best if they put it on the web page. Decided to avoid the eatery by next M6 exit as it is also a Robinsons house. Will avoid them all in future.

Went for a two course sunday roast as a couple. Wasn’t a massive portion, only had two potatoes each which were tough like they’d been reheated. Some of the veg was undercooked and therefore crunchy/hard and the gravy was very watery and therefore a bit tasteless. The restaurant inside is nice with a nice atmosphere and the desserts were of a good size, just a shame about the main dinner

Registered my car on arrival but a month later received a parking fine. I. Paid for drinks by card so I am contesting the fine with proof of purchases. I am the second one in our party to receive a fine for that night.

DISAPPOINTED- food was awful , service was awful there was a hair in my food and my chips were here cold gammon was just fat tasted off , the young girl who served us was very slow waited 15 minutes to pay the bill

We stopped here for lunch on our way back from the Lake District to London and had a delicious meal - a theatrical hanging halloumi and Mediterranean vegetable kebab and sausage and mash followed by sticky toffee pudding with generous sauce and in my children's words, the best chocolate brownie they've ever tasted! Our waitress, Sarah, was delightful, looking after us so well! We left feeling satisfied and refreshed.

Lovely atmosphere for Sunday lunch with our grown up daughter. Friendly and attentive service. Sunday roast was good, but not the very best I've had. Would definitely recommend and reurn, however

Very welcoming staff. Food overpriced and not attractive looking. Salmon fishcakes excellent. Pate covered in a purple mess. Looked awful. Turkey roast had no stuffing or chipolata sausage. Ham egg and chips , ham had fat round edges. Chips were wedges not chips. Overpriced unattractive food. Toilets very cramped. Accessible toilet hard to find. 3 steps into conservatory. Best avoided as poor value.

Last minute reservation with friends today. Fantastic food, served by lovely happy staff. My first time, but certainly not my last. Fabulous, Thank you.

We originally went to the Bear at Brereton but found the building being totally refurbished. On an off chance we called into the George & Dragon where a lovely lady called Lilly found us a table & took our order immediately even though the restaurant was extremely busy. We had the best Sunday lunch of roast pork we have experienced for a long time. The food & the service was excellent & Lilly is a credit to their employment. So many times since covid we have had mediocre service … not so today. We will most certainly return & make a booking reservation next time.

Just called in for a drink with friends and met them in the garden. I didn’t go in pub as mate had already ordered a drink. One month later the parking fine arrived !!.I didn’t register in the pub apparently though it was a warm summers night and I didn’t even go in the pub. Anyway. Cut a long story short rang the pub and the lovely Neve (sorry is misspelled) helped me to cancel the fine as I was a genuine customer who just met my mate for a drink and didn’t see a sign and didn’t go in the pub. It’s a lovely pub with great staff like Neve but just be aware to register the car inside first.

Another very good birthday celebration made special by Stacey looking after us. Food good everyone’s meal enjoyable and good value for money. Friendly staff makes all the difference. 2 nd visit within a week and not disappointed xx

Very disappointing food and service. Very quiet but service still slow and uninterested. Quite expensive for the quality of the food and drinks also quite expensive for basic products.

Popped in for a drink but wine was so good decided to eat as well. Beef Burger and a Fish Finger Cibatta were both wow!! Fresh and tasty, quality ingredients and cooked fresh definitely not warmed up. Really happy experience, the pub is spotlessly clean...

We had the senior citizens lunch meal deal which was fourteen pounds for two courses and it was very good we had the roast dinner and the apple crumble but beware a medium glass of white wine was £7:55 for one

first visit there pleasant pub and very good service spoiled by a parking fine letter through the post yesterday - admittedly did not see any private parking signs we sat outside in the sunshine for our drinks - at no point did we see any...

Fab breakfast, hot plates and food. Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful. Very clean restaurant and toilets.

Well prepared breakfast and great presentation. Staff very helpful and efficient. It would be helpful to mention parking registration on entry as I was only aware when I saw a sign in the toilet when leaving.

Be careful, received a parking ticket as I did not validate my parking in the pub. I didn’t see any signs asking me to do this, nor was I told at the bar. I’ve been in on a number of occasions prior to this without...

Thank you to Stacey after visiting the George and Dragon in April for a lovely meal. The experience was spoiled about a month later we received a parking fine from a parking company stating we had not registered on arrival we did with assistance from...

We didn't have booking but staff were really good at sorting out a table. 13 of us in the party. Food all tasty and hot - staff were superb in looking after us. Good food and well priced.

We have been several times usually on a Sunday and had a fabulous Sunday lunch this time we came on Saturday 18 June with my mum and dad to treat my dad on Father’s Day. Me, my other half and mum had fish and chips....

Great pub, very friendly service & lovely food. The hanging kebab is recommended! We were there as a couple for an impromptu tea and have been since for a Sunday Roast which was just delightful.

Nice pub but sensed short staffed . First time here and went to order food at 12.30 on a not too busy Saturday to be told they wouldn't be taking food orders for half an hour . They advised Restaurant in conservatory took priority as...

As expected The George was very busy on Mother’s Day, glad we had booked well in advance. Great interaction from our friendly waitress Nicola, who looked after us attentively and promptly, with a smile and some friendly chat. We had starters and a main and...

Walked in and was concerned it was so busy which might have meant slow service Not in this place Well done to the team who were evidently well trained and seemed to enjoy their jobs Food was great from the bar snacks Wish we lived...

When you pay around £20 for a burger you expect it to be excellent. At the George it's just average, not great but not terrible. If you go for something requiring more skill from the kitchen you take your chances as the quality is often...

We had the pensioners menu which is far more suitable and a great price. More than enough to eat and delicious. Would definitely recommend.

You know those days when you just need food but really can’t be bothered to cook. Well today was one of those days. Had the gammon of the grill menu and have to say it was absolutely lovely. Cooked just right and everything was lovely....

From the pre party meetings and emails to the set up, service and the excellent food. The food arrived table by table, was hot, delicious and exactly what each table wanted down to the dietary requirements.

Went for dinner with friends. Very noisy atmosphere. Food was acceptable but £9.50 for a large glass of Sauvignon! We will not be going back

Sunday lunch with our UK family. Invited a colleague from North Hamptonshire to meet us since it had been several years since our last visit due to Covid. It was a lovely reunion, the food was great and service was excellent. This is a family-run...

I be love food but this place was not good . I had the cheese pie but It was potato not cheese , I told Thevwaitress but nobody cared ? The chips were too hard , we asked for water , we drank it but...

A comfortable, larger pub offering a wide range of food and drink. The food was obviously freshly prepared and good. The service was friendly, prompt and unobtrusive. An enjoyable lunch after a morning outing to Cheshire

Had a meal of lite bites to share over the Bank Holiday weekend. Food was alright the service was good pleasant girls and a guy served us . Thought a large glass of white wine at £9 plus was way way overpriced. Hence only 3...

This pub/restaurant is located in the centre of Holmes Chapel and has its own car park. It is not that far from the M6 and we stopped off for lunch on a very hot Sunday. There is a very pleasant large conservatory area but due...

It's good to find a place that can cater for a number of people without you feeling like you've been squashed in. The staff were great and very helpful, as well as being patient waiting for us to decide what to order. Some of the...

We booked a table for 12 to celebrate with family our son's 21st Birthday. We asked for the tables to be pushed together which they were when we arrived. (Arrived early to place balloons). We were greeted by Simon and warmly welcomed. We were looked...

Went here for Sunday lunch, very expensive for a mediocre lunch. Meat almost raw, broccoli not cooked, 2 of our party had the 3 meat roast, small piece of chicken, big enough for a child. Should have had stuffing with the pork, when asked for...

Great food. Lovely service. Good value and an attractive dining area. Wish we had this pub nearer to us.It would be great.

A good variety of excellent food, served piping hot by pleasant, cheerful staff. Well worth a visit.

Food was excellent! I had the halloumi hanging kebab and it was huge and came with fries and wrap and chilli sauce and it was all amazing. My partner had the roast dinner which he also really liked. Only negative was the bar side was...

Ate here at lunchtime midweek, quite busy but didn't feel squashed and a good atmosphere. Food was nice and quite big portions. Staff very friendly

We booked a table and cannot say anything negative. Hannah served us and she was very efficient and informative. Great menu and wine selection. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal in a busy pub with great service. Highly recommended.

We had dinner here the night before a local wedding. There was a large group of us, so we had all pre ordered our meals. The place was clean and seemed popular with locals. The food arrived in good time and all together. Good sized...

Called in over Easter for a meal. I chose the Gammon which I have to say was the best I have ever had. However, the chairs situated in the windows in the conservatory are far to close to each other. A number of times the...

A family meal on a Saturday night made all the better by excellent attentive staff who made us welcome and provided everything we needed. A manageable menu, delivered well made for a lovely evening. We all had the hanging kebabs and were impressed with the...

We were coming back from a funeral in Lichfield and was going through Holmes chapel and this pub looked nice. So we stopped to have something to eat. I picked a cheese and onion pasty I was really looking forward to it. I love cheese...

4 of us went here on Saturday night with our 14 month old puppy. The place looks great. Obviously refurbished and done to a very good standard. The food was excellent. The homemade pies had been made with care and skill and tasted brilliant as...

Had a fantastic Sunday lunch here today (30 Jan) the Yorkshire pudding was so big I almost put a sail on it .... fabulous quality food and service. Very clean and welcoming, good choice and value for money too. Definitely recommend.

Lovely Sunday lunch, very pleasantly surprised! Whilst we live nearby I’ve never eaten here but my daughter had recently & on that basis we decided to try it for Sunday lunch, 2 courses for £20, bargain! The table we booked was ready and in a...

We booked as a foursome for our pre Christmas get together meal. Due to family commitments we had a late lunch. We were offered the a la carte menu and the Christmas table d’hote menu. It was hard to choose! In the end three of...

We had such a mixed experience, service was really poor. I suspect due to inexperienced staff as the staff weren't aware of drinks available (asked for a shandy so nothing unusual) and our main issue we asked what roasts were available and were told lamb...

Congratulations to the wonderful Khaleel and staff at the George & Dragon for organising our Ruby Wedding lunch. The food was absolutely delicious and the service couldn’t be faulted. We were delighted with the afternoon as were our friends. Well done all.

I’ve been here quite a few times. It has a lovely warm atmosphere and staff are really friendly. Food choices are a bit limited for a vegetarian but that’s the same at most places but it’s very tasty and I’ve never had a complaint apart...

Initial impression was that we were entering a Wetherspoons mainly due to it being a large establishment. Two of our party had the the chicken and halloumi kebab which were excellent ! . Beer Robinsons Trapper a great pint as was the Unicorn. One of...

Very good food at a reasonable price. Good choices but could do with another couple of vegetarian options. Very loud on a Friday evening making conversation difficult, and service was friendly it was also a little slow at times.

Came off the motorway looking for somewhere to eat and came across the lovely pub restaurant. I had the double cheeseburger and wife had the gammon. Both were large portions, well presented and very tasty. Service was good and friendly. Well varied menu to cater...

The pub was not busy, I choose the roast ham lunch, I was bitterly disappointed with the quality of the meal , the roast potatoes were like frozen ones - no taste and not hot out of the oven or crispy the vegetables were warm...

Called late afternoon & although restaurant was fairly quiet we were treated as valued customers. Very attentive service from Simon, Poppy and especially our excellent flamboyant waiter , Benedict. What an asset to the restaurant... he was enthusiastic and professional , nothing was too much...

Stopped for a quick bite to eat on the way to dropping a son at University nearby. Lovely food, proper napkins, attentive service, and a very pleasant outside seating area even though it is close to a busy road.

We enjoyed the mixed grill and halloumi chicken Piri skewer. It all tasted amazing. We were most impressed with the staff, they were all so professional and friendly. Particularly Benedict and Poppy, who where both fantastic today. We will definitely be coming again soon.

Booked the table quite last minute. Very accommodating on the call. On arrival pleasant staff and our food was really well presented and tasty. The roasts were good. Wine was a good bottle of Rioja. Delicious.

Ok for an off spec passing visit. Managed to get a table last minute. Food was tasty, needed to query the bill 3 times to get it right.

How difficult is it to provide good food and service? Had lunch there last Friday and was asked to pre order as there were 10 of us. Our choices were emailed and this was confirmed back by Khaleel. However 3 days later he called to...

We called in on a Friday afternoon on the off chance there was availability - we were provided a table outside ( with I was soo happy because the weather was lovely). The service was fantastic - the waiter Lewis gave us some really good...

We enjoyed our visit here, great Sea Bass and Thai Curry, the wine was also good. A warm welcome on arrival from Staff and Lydia was particularly pleasant and helpful!!

Could not fault our afternoon out yesterday. Food was so so fabulous and just faultless! Our waiter Benedict was just so attentive and so polite, even offering our table some aftersun as he saw we were getting burnt 😂 Even giving our designated driver of...

We booked a day before attending and on arrival was seated in the conservatory area which is very nice. The whole place has this feel of quality and attention to detail, with folded napkins on tables etc. We were very pleased with our meals, the...

A few collegues and I were going out for a meal and we had heard the food here was great so I called at 5pm to book a a table for 6.30pm. Upon arrival all the lights were out and intantly came on as we...

Met friends for lunch and we all had the 'small' fish and chips and coffee. The service, friendliness and atmosphere was excellent. the food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Spot on.

Came in today, Lydia was so enthusiastic and met our needs with care, would definitely come again if she was working

Came in on Friday and was served by the wonderful Nya. She met all of our needs and made sure we were all ok and comfortable and regularly asked if we wanted drinks. She was fab and made our experience here 10 times better.

We were visiting from outside of town and were unsure where to go and grab some food on a Friday evening. We gave this place a call and asked about availability. They were incredibly helpful and offered us a couple of times they had left...

It was my first time visiting this pub and I was absolutely amazed how nice it was. Not only the food was delicious, fresh and beautifully presented and coffee very good, but the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Benedict, who was serving us food...

Served us all night with great enthusiasm and entertaining humour the definition of great service she 1000% deserves a raise - made us thoroughly enjoy our experience - thanks Anya

What a great place! Well organized, efficient and pleasant service, it was a pleasure to eat here. A special mention for our server Nya who was lovely throughout, offering prompt and pleasant service during our visit. The food was excellent and the team was both...

Called for the second time on a nice summer day. Sat at the front, whilst we only had soup it was very nice indeed. Two pints of SanMiguel was also spot on. The service was both friendly and efficient.

The service by all the team at this pub was excellent, George who served us outside for drinks on both days we went in was fantastic at his job, we didnt have to wait for drinks he was very attentive to everyone who was there....

What a wonderful experience we all had yesterday at your beautiful establishment. Food was excellent and the service by all staff was superb. Extremely professional and very friendly. Thank you all for making our special day memorable.

We had a lovely girls day out and treated ourselves to lunch and cocktails. The halloumi scewer was really tasty and the cocktails were a treat. The service was excellent from our server Hannah who looked after us all day... and evening. She was extremely...

So good to be back. Lovely lunch with fantastic service from Benedict. We will be back soon with more words to meet the 100 character requirement! 😀

A first time visitor to this establishment Visited for a early lunch to meet family for my birthday, we were made welcome from the minute we arrived, nothing was too much trouble Benedict, Amy and Jim made our visit memorable, food arrived quickly but not...

Just happened to pass on first day of opening after lockdown. Very clean and spacious inside and plenty of places to sit outside should you so wish. Beer was in mint condition. Whilst we didn't eat the menu looked appealing, albeit slightly on the dear...
