The George Inn in East Northamptonshire

The service was friendly but there was only us four there. We didn’t know it had turned into an Indian restaurant but we decided to stay and try the food. The food was lovely but mine was a bit cold so I asked for it to be warmed up. A day later I’ve got food poisoning sickness and diarrhoea and so have my friends who had joined me to eat there so I would look at your hygiene cleanliness unless it was reheating chicken I’m not sure but we are all ill now.

Busiest I’ve seen this pub since the 70s Food was excellent, we had to wait but it was worth it, so busy , very friendly and attentive, sure the decor will improve in time as they are new , will definitely return

Friendly staff clearly getting to grips with the new regime at the George - usual wide range of drinks but the food has gone to a new higher level. Fantastic lamb dhansak…full of flavour, perfectly spiced with generous succulent pieces of lamb. All the classic curries plus a real Himalayan Gurkha theme. Can’t wait to come back. Easy five stars.

Goodbye. We are sorry you are closing. Hopefully it will reopen soon.

Visited today, first time, well impressed! I had the burger off the lunch menu, this was very tasty, and for the first time ever I've found a place that can cook fries and cook them well. They were superb!! Others with me had fish and chips, I tried this too, the batter was epic. And one had the Chicken and Bacon Caeser Salad and she was very pleased. Friendly staff, great experience 👍

Couple of drinks and good food for a reasonable price. Lovely place, good atmosphere and plenty of room

Always great food and service. Staff are wonderful and friendly.

Great pub. Went for evening meal, can highly recommend the steak pie. Really helpful staff, gave us a very warm welcome.

We went for a Sunday dinner, the food was great! Big portions and loads of veggies. Servers were polite and food came out in a good amount of time :)

Absolutely brillant service brillant meal recommended any one to go thank neil robertson

Had a very enjoyable meal at the George, friendly proffessional staff, food of excellent quality steak and veg that melts in thel mouth, and the most amazing sticky toffee pudding, i have ever tasted from Robertsons ftiend

Only came for beers and the footy. Looks a nice pub though!

We went for Sunday lunch as part of my daughter's baby shower. The weather was perfect and so was everything about The George Inn. It is dog friendly, the food was amazing (also very vegetarian friendly) and the staff were so lovely. A special thanks to Suzy who made our afternoon just that little bit more special.

Decent country boozer, nice range of beers, good friendly service, had the rugby on when we needed it!!

Visited on a Friday night. Reasonably fast service and you get what you pay for, the food wasn’t anything special. Advisory’s would be to change the colour of the car park sign as it’s currently green and hard to see. Also the ketchup was extremely watery in an odd kind of glass. The Pizza didn’t look great but tasted better than expected.

Went with friends for dinner, service was mediocre - slow service unfortunately put customer service was polite. food… my partner and I had Fish n chips, the fish was far too greasy and over cooked and so was the chips, I may try their pizza next time as looks more appealing.

Cold attitude towards guests, poor service, the coffee is not tasty, after serving the drinks, you don’t want to eat anymore.

A bit tired but staff very friendly

Visited on Saturday night after a positive referral from a friend. Busy and noisy with groups of families with young children. Reasonable menu with specials. My wife ordered steak pie but when it arrived it was lamb after she tasted it. Told the young waiter who asked " do you want it changed ? " well yes it was not what we ordered. A new meal arrived just as I was finishing. On top of that my 1st pint was flat as 2nd wasnt ! Disappointed

I can't comment on the food but we stopped in on Christmas eve after going to the carols. The staff were very friendly and we will be returning to try the food

Had a family gathering for daughter's birthday (November), food was plentiful and delicious Went again (Jan 2024) for wife's birthday, party of 10, food as good and plentiful as before, staff very pleasant and accommodating. Will be back 🙂

Staff so attentive and friendly

Had our works' Christmas meal here, the food was really nice and the service provided was first class. Highly recommended.

What a great place to eat, had works Christmas Dinner here, staff were friendly, great service, helpful, highly recommended, wheelchair accessible, place for children to play, beautiful bar area, very scenic inside,perfect countryside style pub. Thankyou for a wonderful experience, great food, delicious desserts ,and service with a smile,

Food was excellent. Staff are friendly. Great place to eat.

The best meal out I've had for a very long time... absolutely delicious. Good, friendly service, although we had to re-order 2 drinks which didn't arrive, and on checking the bill, we found we been charged for the ones we didn't receive. However, they immediately put this right. There are no soft furnishing or curtains, which made it a little noisy, but overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. Highly recommended, and I will return very soon.

Had Sunday dinner there on 5th November 2023. Everything came out hot, and there was a lot of it. It was very tasty, but I found the beef to be a little chewy, not all of i, just some of it. The roast potatoes could have been crispier, and the gravy (although had a lot of flavour) could have done with being a little thicker... overall, it's not bad, and I will go back to see if there are any improvements.

A lovely local pub with good food and service. Fits a wide range of needs. Bar,lounge area and restaurant and outdoor area. General bar food but also has specials.

Perfect for a night out with friends and family, though, if you're hoping to go somewhere quiet by yourself or with a partner - this may not be the place, as it is very child friendly with a play park and outdoor area. Absolutely perfect for families though. The food was amazing, and service was great too. With young staff that are happy to respond to requests in a timely manner.

So friendly & homely. Good food 2 with special meal nights

Great quiz, great steak night.... Most recent steak outstanding

A good welcome and good food beer is good too.

Just had a meal at the George Oundle for 6 adults and 4 children under 10s excellent food great service nice atmosphere good size helpings food all come out together thanks to all involved

The George is my local pub. The food is ok, when you can actually get the food. Drinks are extremely expensive for what you get. We've been let down one too many times by the lack of food/delays in service. The nail in the coffin was a visit on Thursday, where my mother in law ordered some food. Whilst ordering she said we had a table of 6 to order and was reassured that it wouldn't be an issue. She paid for her food and I went to order food about 5 minutes later for the rest of the family. I was then told no food orders until 6.30 (45 minutes away). They took my name and table number down. At 6.30 I went back to order food and I was told there was a long wait, and they prioritised bookings. My kids couldn't wait any longer to eat so we had no option. UT to leave. I had booked in at the bar for 6.30 so this is a poor excuse for the service. Fortunately there are loads of great restaurants in Oundle, we went elsewhere and had a great meal. I won't be going back to the George!

Great beer garden where the lads were playing cricket

Lovely pub with good food and a brilliant outdoor area. I can recommend the super salad and the chicken burger. I will definitely be going back when I’m in the area again.

Just stopped for a quick cup of coffee on my cycling trip to Amsterdam and the service and people there were amazing, extremely friendly and supportive and the coffee was pretty banging too.

Father's day lunch for 9. Everything was perfect.

The standout about The George are the staff, reception BRILLIANT, Bar SUPERB, Waiting staff JUST GREAT Chefs ON POINT

Beer ok .. bit overpriced.... food poor ..

Lovely pie night £10 best pie ever full of steak yummy

Nice place, staff helpful and friendly.

Lovely friendly village pub, food good too

A lovely old pub with a great out door area for eating and a play area for the children I have eaten in The George Inn in a few occasions and always found the food very good.They recently did a buffet for my husbands funeral and they food was wonderful...I can't thank them effort.

Lovely friendly pub where we enjoyed a meal with our doggie. Very tasty chicken burgers 😋

The food and service was excellent 👌

Very friendly place. Had Sunday roast which was delicious and like a home cooked dinner. Accidental find on a day out but was glad we stopped

Very nice good food with a good selection

Ordered steak and ale pie to my horror it had been warmed up in the microwave the pastry was disgusting.

Popped in for some lunch when passing through and had a gorgeous meal, staff really friendly and welcomed our dog she even got some treats, would highly recommend and will be back

Not a spit & sawdust place..lol its very clean the staff are great it's not the cheapest but it's worth it

Four of us had a lovely meal last night, it’s Game week & we all had venison steak which was perfectly cooked. Thoroughly recommend

Really good food, friendly staff and consistent! We have visited The George Inn both mid week and for Sunday lunch, and have enjoyed all of the meals eaten there. Sunday lunch really was very good, definitely the nicest in the local area!!

Lovely ,friendly, & dog friendly !, local pub to us. Easy accessible

We had a really pleasant Christmas meal and great service. A regular family favourite.

A lovely busy pub. Nice atmosphere, varied menu, well kept beer.

We had a warm welcome table was reserved for us a party over 4 and 2 dogs, everybody enjoyed their meal great service definitely we will be back when in the area.

Quick and very nice food at a reasonable price

Visited here with my wife and a couple friends (plus a dog, they are dog friendly) for a Sunday roast in late September and we all agreed it was one of the best roast dinners we'd ever had. Though a big praise goes to the exceptional service we received. To say they went above and beyond would be an understatement. My wife and one of our friends are dairy intolerant and although this was mentioned in the table pre-booking, my wife was just expecting what most other restaurants do and say that ABC contains dairy and they'd omit it. Or if you're lucky, they might replace or give extra XYZ that doesn't contain dairy. This is not good enough for The George Inn though. As soon as we'd arrived and asking if we were getting the Sunday Roast, our server immediately went to the kitchen. I just assumed he was informing the chef to be careful with ingredients but he returned to say the chef was making dairy free Yorkshire Puddings. This was certainly a small treat for my wife as she usually has to avoid the Yorkshire Puddings. The food came out, dairy free Yorkshire Puddings for my wife and our friend with dairy free gravy (another treat!). Usual vegetables that come with the roast but then out comes two separate bowls of cauliflower cheese - one with dairy and one without. Again an absolute treat and definitely not something my wife and friend were expecting. A superb meal and we were really appreciative of the efforts of the chef and server.

Found this on the way back from Peterborough had really nice sunday dinner hear friendly staff reasonable pricing very good all round experience will use again if over that way

Went there with a large group and was delighted with the quality of the food and service. Will definitely go there again.

Delicious steak and ale pie with crisp fresh veg and gravy. Friendly service. Large outside area for sunny days and car park for out-of-towners

Had a fantastic meal Saturday night. I'm gluten intolerant and there was a good choice of food. I had the steak and they told me that the onion rings were gluten free!!! Couldn't believe it. Not many places do that. Excellent value for money, lovely food, great service. Dog was allowed in bar area. If I'm in the area I will definitely return. Highly recommend.

Lovely food all freshly cooked.. Will definitely go again hopefully for a Sunday lunch!

We had a great salad here and the landlord was very accommodating, even though we were a little late arriving. Would recommend this place if you’re nearby.

Outstanding meal good value for money excellent service would highly recommend

Well kept beer. Lovely beer garden.

Great little pub and food is good great for families as it has a big beer garden

Lovely place to enjoy a meal and drink ❤️

It was lovely needs some music and kids play park

Beautiful pub lovely grounds and atmosphere. Food was amazing. Can't wait to go back

Outstanding food, better crowd. A truly local pub experience.

Lovely food and such a friendly pub. Excellent service and booked again whilst there to go back again 😊

Was a busy Saturday night, but they fit us in as walk ins. The atmosphere was good and the good was delicious. I was a little on the fussy side about my steak (pregnant craving) and they got it bang on. This was my second time here and I would highly recommend.

First time visit for me and the wife . We had the Sunday roast of beef and turkey , which were both very nice . Came with roast potatoes , pig in blanket , pork stuffing and Yorkshire pudding , with vegetables and cauliflower cheese . Very fair price and great portions too !! Service was friendly and swift . Proper nice old pub , would definitely recommend and visit again :)

This is a fun pub in Oundle and just a bit away from the main center of town. The service was very friendly and they served one of our favorite steak and ale pies from the last month living around the area. Beer selection was nice and the atmosphere was up to date and comfortable. We hope to go back soon.

Excellent Staff and an Amazing Sunday lunch. Well worth the visit!

We’re on visit number two in two weeks already! Sunday lunch was scrumptious, so filling and beautifully plated too! Well worth the money. The staff are ever so kind, welcoming and really make the atmosphere of the place. Goes without saying that we’ll be back.. again!

Excellent pub staff and locals, would recommend to anyone wanting to stop for a drink in the area

Good food, nice staff. What more could you ask!

Ok but wouldnt necessarily go back as didnt really get that warm fuzzy feeling when we went in.

Friendly and warm welcome upon our welcome. Upon arrival i noted the pub was mainly full of teenagers and dogs and not quite the country pub we anticipated. We booked dinner after reading reviews and online the pub looks very pleasant. Sadly it's Somewhat less desirable in the flesh. I felt over dressed despite being in casual attire. And some one remarked " he looks posh" as we found a table. The pub is well situated but is rather tired and grubby. The young waiting staff were dressed in dirty trainers and cargo trousers looking somewhat dishevelled. Our drinks were given to us on a dirty bar tray, which was then left with us whilst we looked through our sticky plastic menu folders. The view of the outside seating area leaves very little to be desired and the marquee appears to be outlined by yellow and black tape as though marking a hazard or incident. Whilst grateful for the booking and warm welcome we chose to leave after our drink and found a last minute reservation at the chequered kipper which is a few Miles away.

Lovely pub and lovely outside space

Great selection of beer and fantastic food. Owen is a top server!

Good food, good staff. Roomy and airy with a large outdoor garden space.

Pub looking a bit tired inside but definitely worth a trip as the food is good quality and plentiful. Outside eating is great in a nice garden area.

Great beer, great food, great service, nuff said!

Enjoyed a relaxing pint in the garden. We were well looked after.

Waited 15 Mins before we were seated (Booked the day before) Ordered three Sunday roasts, waited 45 Mins only for the food to be overcooked & Cold, Sent it back, waited another 15 mins only to have the same food brought back out that had been Microwaved. Covid is being used as a poor excuse for very poor food & Bad service.

Eating out after a nice long walk on a lovely hot sunny day . Great beer and excellent food , very friendly staff , well worth a visit 👌

Delicious food, easy ordering and friendly service - a highlight of our lockdown weekends! Thanks The George. We look forward to enjoying food and a drink in person once you open again.

Good pizza, quick friendly service. Nice place.

Great pub! Have been here twice, once with our rambling group, and they were very friendly, covid safe, and we received great service. The food was delicious and I can't wait to go back to try more.

The food is well thought-out and presentation is excellent! The Prawn linguine was devine, we have paid significantly more for inferior versions at other places in the town. Coupled with good quality wine selection, and great value for money this is one of the best places to eat in Oundle.

Friendly staff service very good spotless inside and out will come again

Wounderful sunday lunch here today ,every thing was cooked to perfection ,lovely variety of fresh veg and the meat was delicious, will definitely be returning

Would like to thank all the staff for being so accommodating during this difficult time. My son's wedding party were due to eat in the side garden due to the 30 guest limit following his wedding on 15th August and due to the weather changing we were all made very welcome at tables in the main pub. The food was delicious and the staff couldn't be more friendly. Would recommend this venue. 10/10

Great food on 2 days following. Great service and food.

It is a lovely pub we give great feed back

Good value for money, friendly, dog friendly
