Really impressed with how this place has improved in the last 12 months. Great beer, good indoor and outdoor space, darts and pool. Great for a sunny day - massive garden. Only bit which I think is a bit confused is the cocktail bar which could be better advertised.

Been here a few times and it's always a good vibe with decent prices, Good pints and the "club" part has always been hit or miss. The cocktail bar however, had someone else running tonight and was not a fan of their demeanor/service compared to the woman that usually makes the cocktails

What an absolute joke. Me and my 7, 50 something mates were asked, not for proof of a covid Jab but proof of who we were?? WTAF is that all about? As far as I am aware at 22:15 on a Saturday night you do not need to prove who you are to go into a British public house! FFS, are we living in a communist state? So we went to The Squire instead and received a warm welcome without having to prove who we were!!

Racist bouncers. Apologised to us and said we were not allowed to enter their establishment at approx 10pm even though we had been there 3 hours previously and spent a considerable amount of money. Not being granted entry is usually ok if a justified reason but this bouncer had the confidence to say that we were not coming in for no other reason than he did not like our welsh accents. Not the first time this has happened in the greater Bristol area. Deep routed issues.

Barman was disrespectful when we told him we were exempt from wearing masks with the sarcastic comment “what BOTH of you!? Oh ok then” He Then asked us for track and trace info which I politely declined to provide. Said misinformed barman then told me I ‘had’ to provide it. I put him straight on MY rights. If you are going to have people enforcing GUIDLINES in this way you better at least make sure they know the basic facts. Finished our drinks quickly and left. Will never return. Incidentally we then went to the pub across the road where we were subjected to NONE of the above mask/data collection BS.

Popped in for a Sunday afternoon drink in the beer garden, the first time since lockdown. Both my wife and I felt very safe as a result of the well thought out one-way system, all staff wearing face coverings and easy to use ordering system with table service. We had a good long chat with Henry who has obviously worked very hard to make both staff and customers feel safe. We will definitely return and support Henry and his business.

Sadly this pub does not even deserve a 1 star! My fiance and me have visited this pub twice within the last 2 months and have been treated terribly by the staff. The staff are all young girls who are constantly looking in the mirror and ignoring you or worse on there mobile phones talking to there friends, when eventually you receive your drinks they are not even full up and then they give you the wrong drinks! JOKE Tried to put the juke box on but when songs came on the awful staff decided to turn the music down, I thought I was the customer but not here! The toilets were an absolute disgrace with urine everywhere and by all accounts the ladies was the same!!! Such a shame as other pubs in the village are fantastic and very friendly and excellent at there job. AVOID

Not sure whats changed in the last month or so to now require SIX SECURITY STAFF all ganged up on the door! Went in on Saturday night as i normally do only to be stopped and interviewed as to what my intentions where. All i wanted was to collect my takeaway from Henry's, but it seems this chap took issue with my spar bag with a few beers in it! For a long time now this has been a quiet but decent place to go. I think, to have that many security staff all grouped at the front door gives the wrong impression and i wasn't the only one to find it slightly intimidating also.

This is a nice comfortable local pub which serves a good selection of beers and snacks. We dropped in for a drink and found the staff to be friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was a little quiet but this may have been due to it being only 630 pm.

We visited 1439 Cocktail bar for a gin tasting evening in September. The evening cost £10 per person and involved tasting 4 gins and making a gin cocktail. The bar is only small so has a limited number of people it can fit in (around 15 -20) so it is a very popular night and tickets sell out fast. The staff at the bar explained each of the gins, how they are flavoured and some facts about them. The girl presenting didn’t seem very confident and was reading very quickly off cue cards about each gin rather than being engaging, however we spoke to her throughout the night and she was very friendly did have a lot of knowledge about gin it’s a shame she wasn’t able to share it as effectively during the ‘presentation’. She told us which tonic each gin would be paired with and the garnish we should include. It was nice to try all the different types of gin and the different flavours made by the mixture of botanicals. Before the event I didn’t think I liked gin however through this I found it was the tonics I didn’t like therefore I substituted these tonics for lemonade. The cocktail we made was with Gin, Martini rosso, Cranberry juice, sugar water and a raspberry. We were told that it should have more than one raspberry but they didn’t have enough, which I felt was poor planning as the pack they were showing they came out of was from Tesco so they could have easily bought a second one. We were shown how to mix the cocktail and the measures of everything then left to our own devices while the staff circulated to check everyone was ok. To finish the night we were given a goody bag which was a bottle of tonic, some stirrers and a packet of thyme crisps. The event lasted 2 hours (7-9pm) and overall was great fun and I’d definitely recommend looking out for when they hold their next date. I know we will be!

Last night was our first trip to Chipping Sodbury in many years. After venturing in other pubs on the high street we ended up here. The lady behind the bar was so rude it was a joke. The barman who poured the beers got it wrong. We asked for 2 thatchers gold, 1 haze and a lager. He cans back with 3 gold and a lager. When I said to him about it he apologised and said he’d swap it. He obviously had to just run it by his boss, which was the rude woman, who came over and aggressively said you ordered the wrong drinks so it’s your own fault. I politely explained what had happened and she got all rude. Eventually after 5/10 minutes of arguing she reluctantly swapped it. This scenario really put a dampener on our evening and when we venture back to Sodbury we won’t be visiting here.

We looked for a venue for about 16 people for a lunch party. The warmth of their welcome at the George and their attention to our requirements were very encouraging. The room was just what we needed, so we decided to book there, The room was very pleasantly decorated for us, the menu offered was varied and interesting and they were able to include a few dishes from their a la carte. The food was excellent and served at the pace we wanted. The staff were friendly, attentive and helpful. All our guests (including a 4 year old) seemed to enjoy the occasion. We highly recommend celebrating at the George.

I made a last minute booking for 5 adults and 1 toddler on Saturday 20th July and the owner couldn't do enough for us. We were never rushed and while ordering our food she went out of her way to provide a sufficiently small portion of chicken and rice for the 2yr old. This is a very family friendly hotel/restaurant.The menu wasn't huge but it did provide a good choice to suit us.The smothered chicken was excellent and the beef curry was outstanding.The lemon and honey sponge is to die for,and the last word lies with our 2 year old grandson who (without prompting ) said " this is deeeelicious."

This place used to have a bad rep as a 'yoof pub' - especially on a Friday & Saturday night when bouncers had to be employed!We have visited several times since the George changed hands and it now a very attractive proper adult pub with good food (although the menu is slightly limited), quirky decor and furnishings, and really excellent and friendly service from all staff (even the Chef!). My husband particularly enjoys the '3 beer pint' - served in 3 small glasses in a wooden stand.We haven't yet tried the pretty covered courtyard seating area or the tea room but we intend to do so very shortly!Reccomended.

We went here with a Groupon voucher and it wasn’t expensive so my expectations weren't overly high, however I was appalled at how bad this was! I didn’t know it was possible to do a roast dinner this poor. I had the beef – three wafer thin slivers one of which was curled and dry at the end. One ‘roast’ potato, black on one side, insipid on the other. A couple of boiled potatoes and a bowl of grey (yes, grey) cabbage. The starter in all fairness of French onion soup was tasty (tasted like bisto onion gravy) – no croutons or cheese as you might expect though! My mother had the apple crumble which she said was fine.I think I would have got better quality food from buying a microwave roast dinner for one. The others eating with me found their meals poor as well, to say the least.DO NOT eat here – I am not exaggerating this is exactly my experience of this place, such as shame as the location is great!

We held our Golden Wedding anniversary here on Saturday (16th) with just a smallish party of 59 guests and from beginning to end, it was a fabulous experience for every single person. The food was outstanding, especially the slow braised British beef (which I had) that simply melted in the mouth, it was that tender. Every person had chosen each course from a choice of three options and nobody was disappointed with what was placed before them. Likewise, the breakfast was superb. All the staff on the day were brilliant and made sure that we were happy and enjoying ourselves. A special mention has to go to Angela from the Wedding & Events Team - what a gem she is and truly a credit to the venue! Over the many months of planning, nothing was ever too much trouble for her and her responses to my many email queries were very quick. Some very precious memories were made that day, in a beautiful setting, that will last for a long time for both us and all our guests.

The service was really good, the staff were friendly and offered personal suggestions as well. The atmosphere was perfect too with just the right amount of chatter to ratio with the quietness. However, the food was enjoyable but I ordered the King Prawn and Chorizo risotto and the prawns were left with the outer tail which put me off a bit. It also had an oily residue from the beginning. I wish it was without the tail as I would have enjoyed it more. Overrall good just would prefer these little mishaps to not be there.
