A family gathering for high tea on a Sunday night. Absolutely faultless. Great food, great service and even greater value. Plenty to choose from and we were even offered a choice of desserts before the scones/cakes arrived. Highly recommend. Well done to all involved.

This is a very quaint hotel in the midst of Montrose. Tracy manages a well trained cast of employees. The stairs are steep but manageable. The food was all very good. Very hospitable and friendly. You will enjoy your stay, I promise.

Food was lovely...service was shocking to say the least...Bill wasn't correct upon looking at home, I chose from the 2 for £18 menu yet payed the full amount for both meals. Son burnt his fingers on the plate. After years of working in that industry customer relations are everything however they lack here and we will not be back. Shame as the portions were huge and very lovely.

Awful the worst bar staff in Montrose, they assured me that it was a can they poured into a plastic tumbler, they did replace my drinks and then opened a fresh can and turned it upside down to pour into the plastic tumblers which resulted in it losing its fizz this was done in spite, nasty 3 female members of staff on at 8 o'clock on Saturday evening.

All i can say is this was the first time here and a trip through to Montrose and it wont be the last, Staff great!!! but the food was even better, my wife had a tuna baguette and i had one of their homemade burgers in a proper bun no brioche rubbish and i can honestly say one of the best I'd ever had, plus we had a reaasonably priced bottle of wine to wash the food down. 10/10 Cant wait for a return visit

Our family booked us a room in this hotel as a treat for my husbands birthday and Mother’s Day ,they also booked us all for dinner (9 of us) We came to the restaurant on time ,were quickly seated, menus brought and drinks order taken.All but one in our party ordered starters, they duely arrived and were fine, however the main course menu was a total let down.Firstly no serrated edged knives were supplied with the steak and gammon dishes,4 in our party had burgers which were so overcooked they were completely dry and tasteless,at no time did any member of staff check to see if everyone was satisfied with their meals. When we had finished eating the waitress did ask about our meal and we complained about the burgers, shortly after a lady appeared who I can only assume was either a member of management or a member of the kitchen staff. When we discussed the complaint regarding the burgers we were told we should have complained earlier ,not the end of the meal,when we asked what difference that would have made she said further orders of the meal could have been made. Her attitude was not one of trying to sort the matter out ,but to put the blame on the diners,she relented after a lengthy discussion and the 4 meals were not charged for.We retired to our room later ,which we found to be clean and ok,however my sons room was up on the top floor with no end suite facilities but private facilities on the landing,strange considering it was a family room and my son was the sole occupant. The saving grace of the stay was the breakfast,EXCELLENT,also the breakfast waitress who was a treasure. Sorry but can’t recommend the restaurant,rooms passable ,breakfast excellent.

Delicious food, huge portions, excellent staff and great value for money. Booking is highly recommended as this place is always busy but with a great atmosphere. We were recommended The George by several locals who each claimed to never have had a bad meal and I can now agree as the food was absolutely delicious! The only problem was narrowing down the choice! There are smaller portions of dishes as well which, don’t be fooled, are still big but save on some pennies too. Highly recommend The George!

After being let down by another restaurant on a busy Saturday night, the George managed to fit us (4 adults and 2 dogs) in at short notice. Very friendly and accommodating, and the food was great. We’ve been in previously with the dogs for coffees and for lunch and they were equally friendly and helpful then too. Highly recommend.

I told Karen I had an electric mobility scooter, THAT was no problem! we just had to knock on the side door to be let in, my hubby told Karen I couldn't sit on a hard chair, THAT was no problem! Karen put a lovely comfortable chair with cushions for me at the table right next to the door that we came in and I was able to park my scooter behind me. Serving staff were very friendly, attentive and efficient and the food was just superb and reasonably priced. We dined two nights and the food and service on the second night was equally excellent. Looking forward to our next visit and we highly recommend the George restaurant and bar.

My wife and I popped in for a drink and decided to stay for dinner. Although it looks like a bar there is little space for drinking so it really is a restaurant. Before I went I was recommended the meat pie and told that the portions were huge. My meat pie was lovely and the portions were big. My wife had the beef stroganoff, which was good and again, a large portion. The restaurant let itself down by trying to serve a warmish Pinot Grigio. I didn’t even taste it, just picking up the warm bottle was enough. They changed it for the house Sauvignon Blanc that was properly chilled. Good found at a reasonable price. Keep an eye on. The wine temperature.

We booked our short break to the George in the spur of the moment but we’re not disappointed The receptionist on the phone was very informative and told us about the special dining offer warning us the portions were generous and she wasn’t kidding. The room was immaculate and roomy with a massive super king sized bed wall mounted flat screen tv 3 huge windows make the room airy and bright and the contemporary en suite shower room was perfect. The main meals are served in the popular lounge with a designated section for residents eating the drink was keenly priced as was the food. The portions were as described generous to say the least our deal was for breakfast and a 3 course dinner, although totally delicious we were unable to finish the three courses. The staff were very efficient and friendly and keen to please making our stay memorable and enjoyable. We would not hesitate in returning to the George as its position just of the town centre and beach made it a perfect place to stay.

I have eaten out at the George Hotel for years.Its our go to place as you know you will always get a lovely meal at a reasonable price with good service in pleasant cosy surroundings. Was really disappointed though last night when I went for a meal with friends.Staff were very attentive on arrival taking drink and food orders, food arrived in good time but the service otherwise was really poor.They left the table cluttered with used glasses and side plates from soup course throught our meal.Once main meal was served they seemed to loose interest in us, after sitting with empty plates for a good 45 mins ,we had to call them over in the end as we wanted coffees.They cleared plates but left all the empty glasses. It wasn't as if they were rushed off their feet there were only 3 tables and by the time we left we were the only people there. Just poor customer service, just didn't seem to want to be bothered. I ate there just a few weeks ago and it was a totally different experience. It won't stop be returning as food always great, but I feel staff need more training.

Out for a family meal, we don't meet very often as live far apart. Decided on The George as had been last year and loved it. Where do I start... The seats were crammed in so much, you either had to ask the person behind you to move or the person beside you to get up if you wanted the toilet or to leave your chair. Sat with jackets on as the air vent was blowing cold air on us. 3 of the 4 meals were bland, watery and just not good enough for the money. Over £15 for macaroni cheese and chips - I sent it back. No flavour, watery sauce. How can a chef get something so basic wrong?? Didn't want to order anything else as had no confidence in the menu after trying the other meals and they were below average at best. One of the meals was wrong and the waiter completely ignored me by walking away which delayed time in getting it replaced. Always awkward when you're the only one sitting there with no food for a good 10 minutes. The staff just didn't seem bothered - had to approach them to make a complaint. And after I did so, we received no service AT ALL. Not to check if we wanted more drinks / desserts /the bill. Or not even to see if everything had been rectified. They took the price of 2 meals off the bill after I complained which was appreciated but definitely necessary. Really need to work on customer service skills and the food itself. Not a good experience at all

When asked again it was apparent they had not put the order through. Very unprofessional service and without a care in the world. Wouldn’t recommend.

Booked a table for my Wife and myself with our son and grandkids in tow. I had the Fajita's which were excellent. I over indulged and struggled to finish my meal which is not me. I would have liked the Fajitas to be served sizzling on the hot plate, true to Fajita style but this was a small point. kids meals were bigger that the kids could manage but they gave them a good go. service was superb and could not be faulted. Heading back next week but change my food choice i have heard that the Scampi is good. see you all there

We were staying at the Links hotel for three nights. Unfortunately on Sunday night they had no staff in the kitchen so we came to the George for dinner and drinks. What a pleasure that proved to be. We had four different mains courses and desserts. Food was very good indeed. Drinks we had superb draught Guinness and lager and a bottle of Sauvingnon Blanc... Wicked lady. Service was tremendous. Pleasing to at the young waiting staff were excellent. Monday evening we ate at the Links food very good but 40minute delay from kitchen. So on Wednesday we had dinner again at the George. This time we had the small portions of mains all excellent again. Unfortunately the only dessert was a Key lime pie. Quite sharp served with a synthetic cream foam. Not the same quality as mains. Service was excellent again with very efficient staff.

Main meal was spoilt by the gravy being too salty, this was caused by it not being proper gravy but "gravy granules" as I was told when I mentioned it....make your own your supposed to be a restaurant. Desert was OK but spoilt by using cheap thin chocalate sauce and "can" cream instead of fresh. Overall was disappointed by the visit. Be a while before we go back there

Website is great, and they reply really quickly to email enquiries. There's a really good selection of drinks, toilets were clean and nice, and the front area is pretty much your typical pub restaurant type way which was fine. The waiter was friendly and took our order for drinks quickly and gave us our menus. It was more little things, our menus were splattered with something and a bit manky looking lol, but the choice was great, and really really reasonable choices. Our food did take a while and so did the couples next to us there's no way getting round that. We ordered baguettes and the room was sort of so so busy, and it took half an hour. In saying that when the food came it was lovely, generous portions and very tasty so swings and roundabouts. It'd have been nice to have been asked if we wanted another drink while waiting and empty glasses were sitting and again the same with the other couple, it was grab a waiter time but nothing massive just little things. The parking is dead handy as well.

The wait staff were quite nice and friendly, the decor was quite quaint and our drinks came promptly. I had the Singapore sling and my husband had a lager. Singapore sling was slightly on the sweet side but still very nice. We started with the haggis Bhajis, which were quite nice. next we had the steak and ale pie and the Scampi. Scampi was fine, but the pie filling had chewy and gristly chunks of meat in it which was not nice and my husband was unable to eat it all.

Visited twice last week once for lunch and once for dinner. The food was great with the best ever sticky toffee pudding and I am a connoisseur on the subject having tasted many. This was definitely home made beautifully light topped with a generous delightful sauce. Don’t miss it. The rest of the meal was excellent too with good choice of menu. What also attracted me was being offered a choice of portion size. This is in my view is very important when choosing somewhere to eat. The staff were friendly and helpful. Also a good car park opposite the hotel. I will definitely return on my next visit to the area of Scotland.

Usually go to the George and have always had a good experience, however was there last week for a special occasion and it was awful from start to finish. My son went back with his glass as it was covered in lipstick and the bar manageress sighed and rolled her eyes at him. We eventually had our order taken, the young waiter came over to say there was a delay for food which was fair enough. The wait continued and the same rude bar manageress came to our table. I asked where our food was and she said it would be out soon and barked or do you want to leave. We said if it was only another 5 minutes we would stay and the food is normally worth the wait, to which she flounced off saying well I was going to offer you a free round of drinks. We didn't want drinks we wanted our food. After an hour and 30 minutes our food arrived, the sweet and sour pork was swimming in grease, the stroganoff was burnt, the onion and the mushrooms were black and the sauce was terrible. We could hardly eat anything, the manageress retreated when we went to pay and left the poor young waiter to deal with us. Appalling management, poor customer service and terrible food. Heard the couple at the next table complain about their wait and he quality of the steak and also the waiter had to apologise to another table also. Won't be back and a special birthday meal ruined.

This restaurant has always had a very good reputation for not only its food but also for the service. If anything they have improved since my last visit as they have made changes in their menu and in addition they offer small portions for those who want it. Another plus is their excellent value for money.

First night in town and his place recommended. Went in for drink to sus place out. Nice surroundings and friendly staff. Excellent varied menu so decided to stay for dinner and ordered the Fat Boy burger, lived up to its name, wife ordered chicken sizzler both huge portions. Plenty of staff on hand. Well worth a visit.

Over the years I have frequented this establishment and have always had a friendly welcome. This time I found the staff off hand and got the impression I was a nuisance wanting to order a drink after having waited at least five minutes after joining our friends at a pre reserved table.The food was good but I’m afraid the off hand attitude will not entice me back anytime soon

Very popular place to eat in Montrose. Food very good in the Bar/Bistro. Delicious meals but portions far too big. Most people we saw left food on their plate. Staff good when paying attention, but didn't always see customers who wanted to order food or drinks.

We have been travelling the UK for 3 weeks and this was one of the best meals we have had! We both had salmon and it was delicious. The staff were friendly and we would definitely recommend here for a meal.

I've been here a lot and never had an unpleasant experience yet. If you like big portions then this is the place for you - I just look as though I like these portions but the smaller ones are still more than enough for me at the one time. I would recommend here to anyone but phone to make sure they are not full especially in the evening or weekends.

Definitely a no go unfortunately. The staff are untrained and rude, and it takes a ridiculous amount of time to get service, often having to go up to the bar yourselves for drinks and the bill. The food was piled onto the plate without any care and looked unappealing when served, it was also extremely greasy and way too much food. Sadly I saw others in the same situation getting fed up and trying to get the attention of staff to either send food back or ask for things.

I had the single burger along with a pint of Landlord. My colleague had the chicken stroganoff. Both meals were excellent, quantity and quality being generous to a fault, although I could have done without as much if any of the portion of coleslaw. The car park across the road was a plus due to the weather that day. The waiting service was efficient, prompt and courteous. Toilets clean and well maintained. Certainly recommend this place to others.

Hi 2nd time here at the george for lunch, first time( a year or so ago) was awful but manager sorted out my complaint at the time, gave them another chance and went back today, superb! lovely young waiter, very polite and quick, ordered a cheeseburger and chips, very quick and tasty! mother in law ordered gammon which she enjoyed followed by a superb special dessert of the day which was scrumptious with fresh cream, cannot fault the food or service today with a nice atmosphere, will go back.

We booked our table for 6people to celebrate my sons birthday. We have been here before and it's why we booked again as we have never been disappointed in the past. But!! Last nights meal was a disappointing disaster to say the least! We had a 1hr and 10 min wait for our starters to come out, no one came to apologies or explain why we had this wait, I had to ask what the problem was, the explanation was that in the other dining room was a rather large group and they were extremely busy. My argument is why would the take on more customers that what they can handle? And when the starters did arrive the chilly nachos had no chilly they had run out! And the 2 creamy garlic mushrooms were inedible! They are normally beautiful we have never had to complain in the past, they did offer to get chef to make more but by this time we didn't want to wait another 1hr and 10 min for another starter! So we just put them back. I said that this was radicals and they said their was nothing they could do! I said they could at least hive us a round of drinks, which they did, and we were told the starters would be taken off the bill. Another 35 min before the mains came out, and 3of us had the chicken goujons they were nice but the plates were swimming in oil, my son and his girlfriend had burgers that were extremely well fired me personally I would have sent them back but by this time we were so fed up with it all! My husbands chicken burger was cold and his words! You could sole his boots with it! I must say this is the first time we have ever had anything to complain about at the George, but feel that the staff weren't very apologetic, when paying our bill their was no apologies no explanation. This has left a very taste!!! And as a result we wouldn't be coming back! They really shouldn't take on so much bookings when they simply can't handle it!!!

Just had a dinner for my grandsons birthday. We went into hotel at 6.55 and left at 9.45 pm.!!!!!!We waited an HOUR for our starters only to be told there was no chilli for nachos!!!Mushrooms in creamy sauce could not be eaten. Sauce was very suspect! Main courses were an improvement, although the chicken goujons were "swimming" in grease. The burgers were "very well grilled". The starters were deducted from the bill, which incidentally was wrong as well. Just another mistake. Wouldn't recommend George Hotel to anyone, in fact I would discourage them. Never be back.

Recommended to come here by the staff, at House of Dun, it was very busyand had a good buzz about it, nice decor ,table all clean, we went for the burgers and they were both cooked just right , with chips , staff were all friendly and we waited for only 10/15 mins for our food , so it all cooked to order which I likeMy only slight complaint would be staff stood talking around the till one minute,and then no one there when people came to pay , there were 6 on while we were there , but will go backto try something else .

We have just spent the weekend in the George Hotel Montrose. The rooms were nicely decorated. All the staff from the house cleaner to the bar staff and waitresses were terrific. On the first morning Sunday, We mistakenly taken the wrong time for the breakfast to end, As we were past the time we phoned the front desk, 'no problem' just come down they made us a cooked breakfast! fantastic.The first night we were there. we decided to eat in the hotel, the service was fast friendly, PORTIONS WERE HUGE! even BREAKFAST. You certainly wont come away hungry after a stay at the George. We stayed on the night of the Scot v Eng game, so the pubs and clubswere very busy. Ask for a room at the back, and it's quieter.

We were a party of around 40 who enjoyed a meal here at the end of an outing. We had chosen our main course before hand so it didn't take long for the food to arrive. Before then we had tea or coffee and toast. The cold meat platter which I had was enormous! My wife had the fish which she said was delicious. Then there was a choice of dessert, followed by scones, jam and cream! More tea/coffee was brought throughout the meal. Tasty and it didn't break the bank!!

I spent the last 2 nights staying at the George Hotel and found the staff to be extremely good. From the friendliness of reception to the bar and waiting staff nothing was too much trouble.The owner is a delightful lady who clearly cares about her staff and customers.Breakfasts were perfect and just what was needed after working long hours the day before. I had lunch on my second day just a sandwich but it was no scraped sandwich. FULL of prawns plus a side salad that was fresh and in a larger than expected quantity. What is interesting is that the previous reviewer was there at the same time as I was and all the staff were working extremely hard.I had two meals which were delicious and large portions. Above the quality that you would expect of a 3* town hotel.Rooms were spotless, comfortable and welcoming. This is a quaint seaside town hotel in an older building and the team have done a great job in making it modern without losing the character of the building.As a travel agent I thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Worst nights sleep I’ve ever had, was like something out of a horror movie, outdated decor, beds were so uncomfy I would have been better sleeping on the floor, and window was jammed open so I was cold all night because the sheets were paper thin and pillows were super thin aswell! I woke up the next day and was told there was no one at the reception so I would have to leave out another door there was literally no one there but who I hope was a cleaner because I gave her my room key! Hard pass!

Gorgeous battered chicken fillets and a fresh fillet of fish. The service was superb and the quality of the food was second to none. We even managed to get a portion of scraps. Best fish and chips we’ve both had in a long time and reasonably priced in comparison to Aberdeen.

Attached to the Forfar Golf Driving Range, this cafe/restaurant is always busy and, for some reason, despite it being carpeted, is usually quite noisy! The menu is fairly standard with filled rolls, sandwiches, paninis, soup, baked potatoes etc. Prices are reasonable and the service is usually very good. It is light and airy due to the large windows at one end. I like it in part, as I can see the rural house I grew up in from it in the distance.
