The George & Dragon in Warrington

Visited on a Sunday at 1pm - it was quiet and the staff were very welcoming. We were shown straight to a table and ordered promptly. It’s lovely to see a pub serve a smaller sized roast as I personally don’t have a large appetite. Food was lovely, service was great and my little boy loved the seasonal decorations - especially the skeletons

Just visited 1pm today for lunch, food basic kids pizza was a microwave one, hunters chicken over cooked very dry steak n ale pie average meal.. To top my amazing visit to the children’s play area the dragons den. - well was told we weren’t allowed to take a pram into the area, we have a double decker pram with two babies in and a 4 year old boy. Was told to Leave pram at the counter!!! I said what with the babies in .. Absolute joke.. One place we will not be visiting again …. Very disappointed

Food and service was top rate would definitely recommend

Had a wonderful meal with family the home made beer batter was wonderful best batter on fish and chips I’ve tasted and onion rings again with gorgeous batter highly recommended

Great pub. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Play Park outside with lots of benches to sit on and eat. Massive soft play inside. Food is incredible! Especially the chips!! We all enjoyed our food. Service was amazing! There's a young girl working there and she looked after us from the moment we walked in! Absolute credit to the place! There are 6 of us. 2 adults & 4 children (3 of which are under 3!). It is a pub for families so expect sticky handprints & surfaces. But other than that I can't fault the place, staff or food!! Would 100% recommend!!!!

Only attended as there was a car meet where people show there classic cars and sports cars and being on pub car park you can have a drink while your browsing around

Went for a lunch with work. Unfortunately they didn't take blue light...carnt win em all. Was really quiet for a lunch time which was ok as we were served quickly from the table. The waitress was very polite and professional. Food arrived and was really good, I had the fish which was in my opinion a better quality than other pubs in the area. Prices were slightly higher though but not by much. Only down side was the music...maybe was someone's personal play list but it was a bit depressing as as the pub was deserted it made it feel more so, a little more upbeat and the experience would have been much better.

Wouldn't let my son in the play centre because he was 2 inch to tall what a joke!!

Completely empty and no atmosphere at all. Thursday evening 7pm Left feeling the place would be closed permanently soon. Food - Greene King menu done poorly, simple fish and chips - tough white fish Give it a try, make up your own mind. Absolute pity because it's a nice enough looking place, really has the potential to do well.

We came here for a change/somewhere different for tea, they had a offer on order a main and get another for £1, so the wife had a really lovely crispy fish batter to die for and the fish itself was very thick and white, I wanted a beef yorkie wrap but they had none in so I opted for a chicken Yorkie wrap with gravy both meals came with chips and peas, we was so full we didn't need a dessert

Had a lovely experience, food was great, pub has a wacky warehouse for kids while you visit and the customer service was great too

It was my two year old’s birthday party in the soft play area. Entrance for all the kids attending her birthday party was paid for in advance however all the parents were forced to pay entry again. There was no one to help me set up. other children were taking her food snacks and drinks off the table as well as balloons and decorations. I tried to complain twice but there was no help offered. They expected me to confront the other parents myself. I missed out on my child party completely. I was also overcharged fir the food and drink our orders on the menu. I had to ask four times for them to serve the drinks to two year old little kids and they kept trying to tell me that I have to pay extra for it however it was meant to be included.

First time visiting here, the staff were very helpful and friendly. Food came out hot and all at the same time. It was a quiet Sunday so I'm not sure if this would be the same if it had been busy. My only grumble was no mash with any of the Sunday roasts ? Gravy a little salty and crumble was lacking in fruit. We would return .

Very noisy but understandable, it was sunday and full of children and we had our own grandchildren with us. Checking the menu online, prior to visit left me very disappointed with my actual meal, for a start the menu was slightly different to that online but the menu stated, slow cooked steak pie with mushrooms, roast onions, chips or mash and seasonal veg. It was actually a shop bought pie, no sign of mushrooms or onions and the veg was two very small slices of parsnip one slice of carrot and peas, all the meals were smallish portions and just generally not what I was expecting.

Lovely pub great food really tasty we went stir lunch, staff friendly and accommodating have a children’s play area.

Very pleasant experience with family members. The food was good. Pleasant staff. Play area for the children

Love this hidden gem, always treat my kids to a play date here, large soft play area, at a reasonable priced entry, staff are so attentive, and the food is fantastic, you can dine outside on the terrace in hot weather which is a bonus.

Nice pub always busy and car park full. Food wise menu is small option but great food.

I had to try the Yorkshire wrap. And it did not disappoint. The meat was cooked perfect. The chips were lovely and crispy ! My son and his girlfriend really enjoyed their food too.

Went for kids birthday party and stayed for food, will definitely be back

Excellent place for family meals with a soft play area on site. Waitress was fantastic and really tried to sort out my salad, which wasn't listed on the menu. Chef offered a great salad ad hoc. The kids menu also hit the mark and was delicious. It so refreshing compared to my visit to the Black Swan in Hollins Green where both waiting staff and kitchen staff made no effort. ?

Overall the food was OK. The beef was a little tough but almost everything else was good. The staff are brilliant and can't do enough for you. Will eat again but not order the beef

Used to love this place but never been with my pram before. Now I’ll never go again! I went on 2 buses in all weathers today to bring my kids to this soft play for them to have fun I have 2 boys ages 4/6 and a 6 month old baby, who was fast asleep. Well they ran around having some fun I had hoped to get half an hour to myself with a drink and some quiet time well baby slept , i just wanted to sit down and enjoy myself best I could too instead I ended up stud at the counter with my baby asleep because they wouldn’t let me take the stroller in. I asked for the manager he was no help either saying he understands as he has kids too! Well I’m sorry but he does not understand not a bit ! Waffling on saying it’s insurance policy absolute rubbish! I have been to plenty of soft plays with my kids and I have never once had an issue taking my pram in anywhere I don’t even have a huge pram it’s the bugaboo butterfly! And he said if he lets me in he would have to do it for others! Well maybe have a limit of how many ? It’s ok for wheelchairs though! Nothing against wheelchair users but it’s exactly the same thing. It’s ok to have tables plonked everywhere across the room too but not a pram! Why open a soft play for kids aimed at kids so obviously people will have pushchairs and then not allow babies in them especially young babies at that!!! I will never ever be back now I used to rave over this place and how reasonable the price is for the kids to play, but not anymore ! I also had to juggle my kid’s jumpers and baby bag and baby well my Child went to the toilet and tried to help him push the tap down to wash his hands as he couldn’t do it all well juggling a baby and all our stuff. You should be embarrassed of your service ! I would have walked back out but I promised my kids they could go which is the only reason I give the company my money!

I have low expectations of any pub with a soft play attached (hello Wacky Warehouses) but was pleasantly surprised by this pub. The food was fresh, hot, tasty and a good portion size. Lots of good healthy options on the children's menu too. I like that the pub is in two sections for families and people without children. Indoor play area is really great too and the staff in there were really lovely. Will definitely visit again.

Party of four on a Saturday for lunch. Check in noticed we didn’t have children so took us to secluded part of the restaurant where we wouldn’t be disturbed - nice touch. Waiting staff were prompt and cheerful. The menu was a bit ordinary but we found something for everyone. I had the steak pie and was delighted to find it a “proper” pastry encrusted delight rather than the modern trend of providing a casserole with a pastry lid. Altogether, an average meal served pleasantly without problems.

First time we've visited the Dragons Den, loved it for our toddler (23 months) alot of space to roam free around the soft play and lots of bits to climb up and into. Separate soft play and smaller slide for littler ones. We had milkshakes which were delish. Didn't eat this time but we've ate in the pub before and value for money was good. Nice food and pleasant service.

Been away for a while (personal reasons) Back last night for Valentines to a lovely, warm & friendly welcome, just like we’d never been away. Usual table waiting for us. Staff are great, friendly, attentive and can’t do enough for you. Food was as good as we remember, hot, tasty, plentiful, well presented. Nice pub setting, relaxed atmosphere. Great to be back. Thank you to Steph & team G & D for making our Valentines night - keep up the good work guys 👍

This place does lovely food for what I have tried of it. The staff are lovely and treat their workers great as I know somebody personally who works here and they cannot fault them. These recent bad reviews are nothing but people jumping on the bandwagon to defend a one sided facebook post with misleading information.

Ordered a sharer for two as a starter chicken was a little slimey, calamari was rubbery best bit was the hummas and pita bread cant really go wrong there.. my friend ordered the steak pie when it come out it was like a mircowave pie poor quality for the price. i had the beef yorkie wrap the yorkie was dripping in grease and the beef was really hard to chew i know you cant always get nice beef but you couldnt even chop it up it was that hard.

Staff were rude and the food wasn’t very nice.

Horrendous establishment. Everything was dirty and unhygienic including glasses, table wear and the floor surround our table. Mouse found inside play area & also a foul smell in the wacky warehouse area. DO NOT VISIT!!!!!! Managers were rude and unapologetic. Had to request a sweeping brush and cloth to clean our area before me and my child ate. Hardly touched our food due to quality & left. TERRIBLE!!!!!!

Had a lovely meal with family and staff were all extremely nice as always play area was great for kids would definitely recommend

Popped in for a meal on Tuesday with a friend. Staff were extremely polite and attentive, had starters mains and desserts which were all lovely. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent meal, really enjoyed, large portions, and enjoyed the nook as it was quiet,

We visited on a very, very wet Tuesday lunchtime. I am guessing this is why it was very quiet. It was my first time at the George and Dragon and my partner's third visit. I was surprised at how big the George and Dragon is. There were approximately three other couples dining so plenty of space if you want a quiet lunch. We were greeted as soon as we entered and soon found a nice clean booth to sit at. Within a few minutes, we were brought the Lunch Club menu and the normal menu. We ordered our drinks: a glass of house red wine and an appletizer. Very nice house red. I had a chicken burger, and my partner had fish and chips. Both meals were good portions at a good price for a lunchtime offer. The only reason we haven't given the review 5 stars is for the fact that my partner's meal came with a chipped ramekin that had tarter sauce in it. As the lunchtime menu offers a desert for £3, I tried the chocolate Fudge cake with ice cream. Very nice indeed. To finish off, we had a cappuccino and a tea. Both drinks came with an absolutely delicious little chocolate cookie. My partner just happened to mention she can't eat milk chocholate. So Steph, who served us, brought her some shortbread. A very nice gesture and great customer service. Top tip: swop fries for the tripple cooked chips. I had fries with my burger, and they were nice. My partner gave me a few of her tripple cooked chips. Wow, probably the best chips I have ever eaten. I also had a little piece of her fish. Fish and chips for me the next time we visit. I can imagine the Geroge and Dragon being very busy as apart from excellent food and top-class customer service, it also has a large children's play area inside and outside. The car park is large enough to accommodate plenty of cars. We both highly recommend the Geroge and Dragon.

Kids party was okay. They forgot our daughters meal which was quickly bought out. The girl in charge of our party had little idea how to host and we were not impressed with her . She actually swore in front of the kids and we had to clean the room ourselves before the party as there were still dirty cups and leftover food on the table and chairs from the previous party. Not impressed . Its good value for a reason.

Terrible food , what i was served was not acceptable and lack of management skills . Used to be a regular diner at the george & dragon but Will not return.

First time here great food and service 😀 also ample parking

Be honest! Its somewhere to take the kids or grandkids, mediocre pub generic food, but thats what you get with kids. Staff are lovely but if you want tasty exceptional food you will have to go to places that dont want screaming kids... 🤣

I have been here many times now and each time my experience has been top notch. Staff are fantastic and go above and beyond. Food is exceptional! Highly recommend one of their burgers, roast dinners or on this occasion I had the steak n ale pie - ohh myy it was soo good. Had a sharing Platter and even got my picky husband to try the calamari!! For the little ones there is the dragons den soft play next door. My son (now 3) loves it! 28/01/2024 Had a delicious turkey roast dinner. Again couldn't fault. My very fussy son wolfed down his chicken nuggets and beans too, and somehow even managed a pudding!

Nice food and friendly staff, only thing was that there were far to many children in the soft play, and many over 5s in the under 5s section so we left as our small children were getting trampled on. Food is abit on the pricey side id say but quite good quality

I attended this evening with 4 other family members and everything was perfect. Food and service was 10/10. I cannot fault any of them. Unfortunately, I didn't get the staff members names however they was all professional and conducted themselves with great manners. It was good to see the staff smiling, and it is clear they enjoy their jobs. Manager was fantastic and came around to check on everything. All the staff working this evening is a credit to the owners.

Family day out with a roast dinner. We chose this place because of the food reviews and huge indoor children's play area. This is a great place if the weather is awful and the kids want to play. The ply area is huge and the staff very helpful. We all ordered a roast dinner and there were clean plates all round. I ordered a gluten free vegetarian roast, they were very accommodating as the menu doesn't say they do gluten free or vegetarian, but they made it work no problem. They don't do gf Yorkshire puds. But they were happy for me to bring my own and heat it up. The only downside is that the food could have been more for what was charged, £17.95 for one long carrot, 2 veggie sausages, one broccoli, 2 dry roasties and gravy. Very well presented but more on the plate please. A bit of mashed potatoes and stuffing for us gluten free dinners would be great, or don't charge the full amount

Absolutely disgusting service from a manager. Hands on hips and pulling her face. When I asked who I complain to she said ‘it’s my dads pub. And laughed at me. No pram aloud in play area when baby is sleeping in it. Food was freezing and gravy lumpy stuff in play area shouting at kids. Will definitely not be returning.

The ‘family’ orientated pub in which holds a child’s play area, doesn’t allow prams inside with sleeping babies. The ‘manager’ is very arrogant and stood with her arms folded and scowling at me when I asked for an email to complain she told me my dads the owner and smirked in my face. Definitely won’t be returning. The food was awful and no service with a smile. All staff look miserable, but is it any wonder with a boss like that!

Great pub, attentive staff, great choice and fantastic value for money.

Went to the shift play today with three children under 4. The girl at booking in was very off hand. Said... You can't come in until the party is over in five minutes. One of the children needed the toilet and I said ill just take him to the toilet. She said.. Oh you can't use this toilet you'll have to go into the pub. There was no notice to say the area was closed. How are you supposed to know when you drive there if its closed for a party. Ridiculous. We didn't wait and they lost out on quite a bit of money for the sake of five minutes. How are you supposed to make little children understand they have to stand outside the play area.

Really nice food, good atmosphere and friendly staff Great soft play area for kids to tire themselves out in

The flooring could do with repair. One or two rips on the shift play area. Drinks and crisps a little on the expensive side

I’ve tried to visit here twice, once I booked and they called me to cancel as a bigger group booked on. Another time I arrived first thing Saturday morning to be turned away because they had a private party. Safe to say I won’t ever return as your staff are rude and the kids are disappointed yet again!

Stopped off for a quick bite after visiting the garden centre close by, we had a party of 14, they where very accommodating for us - turned a couple of tables around to fit us all in. We had starters instead of a full meal which where tasty, but the chillis where very spicy! Not complaining though, its just rare to get chilli's that fresh!

Nice place especially for kids because there is indoor and outdoor play area. It is 5£ for indoor play area

Busy place for family dining offering children's play area to keep them entertained but much the same as many other places

Nice food, amazing service, could not fault the place. Will definitely be going back

came here on saturday 14th october 2023. my son had an accident in the dragons den. there was a hole in the netting on the upper level in the under 4s section my son somehow managed to fall through ad was trapped behind the playarea. i couldnt get to him as the zips on the panels at the back had padlocks on them. i took a considerable amount of time for them to get my son out so understandable my son and myself were very distressed. There was many parents that witnessed this and tried to help of which a few have told me the staff were rude and uninterested on helping and continued to serve other customers before coming to help. the day after this happened there was another incident at a childrens party where there were mice runing around the childrens play area. the woman who booked the party rang in the morning after seeing a post i had made about my sons accident as she wanted to make sure the area was safe... to which she was told that i was drunk and didnt know the different between a hole and a zip my son didnt fall he let himself through the zip.... absoloute disgusting behaviour to try and use any a=excuse to cover up the fact they were in the wrong. formal complaint has been made !!

Really nice food second visit today would recommend this venue there's something for everyone's taste service is also brilliant nothing to much at all will be back again soon

Good food, the service was quick, and the hygiene standards were high.

This establishment is very nice indeed. The pub itself is very clean and tidy and has plenty of seating areas for eating. There is also an adult only eating area for those without children. The food is reasonably priced and there are cheap lunch deals available. I had fish and chips and I was a bit disappointment with the amount of chips I got but the fish was really nice. They also have a children's soft place centre which is why we came here. Its very large with plenty of things for kids to do however there isn't that much seating. My kid enjoyed themselves so that made it worth it

Fantastic pub,,, LandLady and staff are wonderful Great Beer 🍺 and food is Bang On !! 😋 ⭐️

Good food....ideal for children..play area... clean and good service.

Nice spacious pub with outside seating and a play area for the kids. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed a fish and chips for her and a cheese pie for me, with a pint of Guinness and a glass of wine. Everything on our plates was hot as it should be, with cold drinks going down extremely well. Helpful staff. Yes, we will go back again soon. Recommended

Had an extremely disappointing encounter at the George & Dragon - I paid for my two older children to go in and play only to be informed that I couldn't bring in the pram with my 11-month-old daughter, who was sleeping, due to "Fire Regulations." While I'd understand if this were accurate which I knew it wasnt. I then had a conversation with the manager only to reveale that it was simply the company's preference, not a fire registration which they've informed all the staff to say. Consequently, I was forced to wait by the counter with the pram while my other children played, which was ironic considering we were obstructing the sole fire exit.

Ordering was quick. Food took about 20 minutes. When the food arrived it was greasy especially the fish and chips. My partners chips didnt taste nice at all, he said his burger was ok. 5 minutes with it been on the table, they asked how the food was but didn't give us enough time to try as we had two children who we was helping cut there food ect. Before we had ours. I left the whole fish. Nobody asked why and left us waiting 25 minutes after we finished before we could pay and that's only because we asked if someone could give us the bill. Wouldn't come again unfortunately. Especially for the price of it.

would be advisable to put notice on door of dragons den when hosting a private function to avoid allowing children to go in only to be told it's closed to the general public, terrobke customer service will not be returning to avoid any further upset for grandkids

Lovely food, with kind and friendly service.

Lovely food. Great service. Serving staff were really friendly and quick on the tables.

Went to the playarea yesterday, siobhan was fantastic, my little girl was crying and she came over to check if she was ok, above and beyond what you expect.

Took Grandchildren to Soft play facility.

Empty plates say a lot about good food! Children well catered for with lots of highchairs available, good play pack for £1.50 and a grab machine that you continue playing until you win a prize - for £1! Lots of outside seating and a children's play area too!

I have been here a few times with my family which includes a young baby, everytime I have had to remove from pram and wake up even when she was a few weeks old as your not allowed to take prams into the play centre which I think is ridiculous! Bear in mind every single time there has been no more than 2 other tables in. The staff who work the play centre till are always miserable like they’ve been forced to be there. You can’t eat food in there like you can at every single other one which is a pain. It’s a shame because the actual soft play is decent. Really let’s it down !

We stopped by for a drink yesterday. The pub is a nice pub with plenty of tables. The drink was nice and the staff were very friendly! :)

Decent pub grub, service is excellent and always on hand to help. As its a family pub with play areas you obviously get alot of family with kids, if your looking for a quiet pint you ain't gona get it.

Lovely place. Apart from a young waitress nobody else was there. So if you like the quiet life fill yer britches!

Food looked better than it tasted presentation 10/10 just wasn't for us unfortunately maybe next time I'll try something different to what I had today

Not sure about the food and service as its 5 year's since i had food there. But they catered for my granddaughters birthday party and it was fabulous!

Nice friendly staff. Great food. Good soft play area for kids

Was in the Area so decided to pull in here for some Late Lunch. We wasn't disapointed. The food was Amazing, and tasty and cooked perfectly. Prices were average and the Service was really good. We was offered to sit in the adult section were kids were not permitted. This was ideal for us. And made it a greater experience. Would definatly reccomend this place for food. Food had - Battered Halloumi with Chips and TarTar sauce and - Hanging Lamb Kebab with Salad an Chips.

Currently sat in here we’ve been waiting 1 hour 30 minutes still no sign of food.. people have come after us eaten and left. Will never come here again, offered us dessert as compensation then told us there was only a couple of things left from the dessert menu which we didn’t like told them to forget about it. Food arrived 1 hour 45 minute later and had to be sent back it was that bad. AVOID AVOID AVOID

My wife and I visited the restaurant on a Saturday evening. We ate superb rump steaks presented by an excellent friendly and efficient service. I thoroughly recommend.

Fine - bit of noise from the road in the beer garden and very uncomfortable benches. Some barely off the floor

Excellent meals for my wife and myself after visiting Bents Garden Centre,would definitely visit again

We visit here quite regularly and never had an issue, the food is always great. The service is always superb aswell, it always seems to be Siobhan working when we go and she is great.

Visited The George and Dragon after shopping at Bents garden centre. It was lovely and the staff were great, we sat outside in the beer garden and our grandson played on the outdoor play area. The menu is extensive, and the food was delicious, and we will definitely be returning soon

Brilliant service, food was lovely. Grandchildren enjoyed the play area. I found it strange we had to pay for the Jungle Jim when we were eating at the establishment so was in and out of there when food had arrived in the pub area. Children enjoyed themselves which was the what we wanted.

Lovely location, amazing food at amazing prices and fast and friendly service

This place has a nice outside seating area . The food was good I had Tikka Masala, not too spicy. The apple blackberry crumble was Delicious! Nice fun play area kids

Stopped in on the way past for a quick lunch, unfortunately I was really not impressed. The food quality was not great and served Luke warm. When we walked in I felt we were not made to feel welcome and even though the pub was extremely quiet. Will definitely not return especially with having other places on the door step in cultcheth.

Absolute gem off a pub, very polite staff,fast service, brilliant play area for the kids to let off some steam. Lovely beer garden. And large selection of drinks and food, 100% reccomend

The staff are so helpful and the food and prices are worth the visit. Kids friendly too.

Value for money, friendly staff and really good ambience

Nice food, and good play area for the kids to play in

It's one of a kind plenty of table to chose from not forgetting the dragons den for the younger ones, food is loverly which is your choice nice music in the background , staff frendly kind helpfull, nothing to much trouble, It's one of our favourite as we come home the long way missing traffic Thank you again The Gorge & Dragon Cliff

First time visit. Went to a birthday party.

Really enjoyable food, but the highlight was the exceptional customer service by Brittany!

Enjoyable food and will be back - the customer service from Brittany was exceptional! Real customer focus, knowledgeable and delightful!

Overall, our experience here was enjoyable. The space was clean and roomy, and we appreciated being seated away from families with children. Additionally, there were ample parking spots available, which made the visit convenient. Our meals were quite enjoyable, especially the sirloin steak, which I had. One aspect that could be improved is the service. Despite the hostesses bringing us more drinks, they seemed reluctant to collect our empty glasses, even though they had an empty tray to take them away. As a result, the table became congested with empty cups and glasses, making it challenging to enjoy our food fully. Overall, we had a pleasant dining experience at the pub and would recommend it to others. The space was clean, the food was tasty, and the coffee was great. If the service improved, it would be an even more enjoyable experience.

Lovely service and meal. The play centre was shut and online it said it was open but apart from that no issues.

2nd visit to this pub a few more people inn but still rather quite meals are off a very good quality recommend the hanging kababs prices are a bit high but they do accept various offers so it is still worth a visit

Randomly stumbled upon this little gem, and was really impressed! Excellent food with something for everyone, the staff were welcoming, attentive and friendly, and the music was perfectly quiet! Would recommend!

5 of us went for Mothers Day, for Sunday lunch, and even though it was very busy, the staff were great, especially Brittany who was very friendly and welcoming, and very attentive. The food was great, and reasonably priced. They have an adults only section which was great too and nice and quiet. Will definitely be back!
