The George on the Strand in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Awesome experience 😍 nice, cozy place, very friendly staff 🥰 thank you for nice evening, lol 😂😂😂🤩 just happy to be here, vibe unbelievable 😁

Excellent time at The George. We called last minute on a Sunday afternoon & asked if they could accommodate 8 with a dog. Quick reply & friendly service from the guy behind the bar. Starters of scallops were well appreciated & roasted dinners were great. Would return, if able!

Friendly service, fair selection of ales. Good for a pit stop to look at the interior.

This is the last stop of our small group (Not so small with 15 people) of London Historical pub tour we booked via Viator! I just love the half timber house that is a such time stamps for the city! We enjoyed the beer we ordered but the kitchen was closed already when we arrived. So we may have to come back again to enjoying the full experience of this pub!

I didn't eat here but have had an amazing roast dinner in the past. Beer choice was fairly ordinary but better than some places, I had a Jubel peach beer, which is nice but I cannot have too many. Service friendly. It's a good pub, and I need to eat here again at some point.

Fantastic pub cost across the road from the royal courts of justice steeped in history the landlord brilliant bloke had a nice long chat with him about the business will be returning in the future please give this place a visit

Nice traditional pub with great service

I went to this place by chance, but it was great. The staff is very friendly and the ale is delicious. I had a Sunday roast and it was all clean. It was the most delicious food I had during my trip to London.

The George is a nice pub that has a traditional look to it as exemplified by the wood panelling. It is long and narrow with ample seating and a dining room upstairs. (I did not try the food but the pub has a good reputation for food). They had a large selection of drinks, over 2 dozen whiskies and 9 cask drinks, including one cider. I opted for a very nice Tomothy Taylor at just over £6. Despite being in a prime location opposite the law courts the pub was quiet at 4pm on a Wednesday afternoon. The service was excellent and I liked the self pour iced water at the bar. For the less mobile the steepish steps down to the toilets may be somewhat tricky. I really liked this pub and will certainly be returning.

The service was great! Good pub environment and food was delicious!! My favourite was the seared scallops ❤️ Will definitely come back!

Really cool vibe and great food! Highly recommend the Scotch eggs and the scallops. Staff are super friendly and always a good time whenever I visit!

Always very attentive service and great food. I would personally recommend the Scotch egg and the pies Personally, this is the pub to go if you are in the Aldwych area!

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. We dropped in there to get out of the rain before deciding where to eat before a shoe and ended up staying a couple of hours for food and drinks. The staff were very friendly and made us feel comfortable and created a lovely atmosphere. We were even permitted to sample the lager and the staff ensured our group had no allergies. The food arrived quickly and was delicious. The staff provided efficient table service making our visit very pleasant. I would definitely go again and will be recommending to my friends and family.

Excellent service! Stilton is delicious.

A little pricey... But that's understandable given the area. Incredibly polite service. The atmosphere was really nice.

The food was delicious but Carlos helped select a variety of drinks. My daughter and I spent the evening with good food, delightful drinks, and excellent service. We felt right at home!

Nice pub... good beer selection

Nice pub opposite the Courts, busy for early Sunday evening. Good selection of beers, and the food that past us looked good. The first drink took a while to get (either too busy or not enough staff on the bar) but thereafter barman was very attentive preempting the need for a 2nd 😉

Just popped in for a pint (no food, so i can't rate it but smells great), 12.45, plenty of seats but quite a few already here and enjoying the food and drink. 8 pumps (6 ales, 2 ciders - i went for the Brockley Pale Ale) so if you enjoy a journey through some different types and flavours, you should come here for sure.

Fabulous service and food. We really enjoyed the steak, burgers, and fish & chips. Our service was great as well.

Nice Sunday roast here at The George, potatoes were incredible. Also got the scotch eggs which were fantastic. Really liked the setting, felt historical but not old or dusty.

A lovely little Gem on the strand. Carlos was very quick to greet and make me feel welcome, thank you for the pint and I'll be sure to come back for another very soon! ❤️❤️

Super friendly staff and very cosy.

Went for Sunday roast with family who was visiting from abroad. They made the reservation more than a month before, for 5 people. We called to add one more person a few days before, which they said was perfectly fine. However when we got there, the staff told us it was only for 5. I told them we called and they said it was fine, but the staff seemed super confused. The first table they took us too was right by the kitchen and it only fit 4 people even though the original reservation had been for five, and the fifth chair added was directly in the way of the kitchen entrance and would have blocked the food path. They eventually moved us after waiting around 10 minutes for a fifth chair and sixth chair. It’s just annoying that the reservation had been booked for over a month and we were originally placed somewhere that couldn’t even fit everyone and would be in the way or the servers. When I asked about sitting in the booth they said that it was already reserved. But when we left it still wasn’t even used. As for the food, the pork roast was incredible. Chicken was good and not too dry, and beef was also good. The Yorkshire puddings were overcooked and not great. Everything else was good though. Wide variety of beers and nice atmosphere. I would’ve rated it higher if it hadn’t been for the seemingly poor communication of the staff.

Always a fantastic roast, rate it as one of my favourite pub lunches in Central. Not the cheapest but good quality meats, great roast pots, seasonal veg and good selection of wine. Would recommend!

Wonderful place we stumbled upon! Friendly and attentive service. Great selection of local beers on tap. The breakfast stout was excellent! Venison and duck Scotch egg...amazing! Huge selection of sprits. Would certainly go back!

They don't serve after 10pm, at least on Monday

Great traditional British bar. The salmon & smoked haddock pie with peas and carrots was fabulous. Great service and atmosphere.

The food was fantastic and just the perfect serving! The fish and chips was huge and so fresh. The fish pie was to die for, the hint of dill really made it work! Eris was a great server and very attentive!

We recently hosted a group dinner for our event at The George, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The George team did an exceptional job organizing everything, ensuring that our seating plan was perfectly arranged upon our arrival. The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish expertly prepared and beautifully presented. The service was equally impressive; the staff was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to cater to our needs. Every detail was meticulously handled, making the evening seamless and enjoyable for all attendees. I highly recommend The George for any group event or special occasion!

We ate lunch on Sunday. Very nice service. Food good but very expensive.

Fabulous Sunday roast at The George. Absolutely delicious food, beautifully presented and washed down with quality real ale. Excellent service too! Highly recommended!

Best roast dinner in London! The meat melts in your mouth and the Yorkshire pudding is amazing! Staff were so pleasant and helpful.

We had a fantastic Sunday roast here. A little pricier than a normal Sunday pub roast, but extremely worth it. Portions were generous and delicious. Vegetarian/vegan options too.

Solid experience, Barry good style of pub food even in the restaurant

Great food - very decently priced and lovely atmosphere

Beautiful pub, but the bartender's rudeness was disappointing. Waited at the bar for at least 5 minutes with no service, then when he finally arrived, he seemed apathetic and cranky and asked us to wait again before taking our order. We left for another pub as soon as we finished.

Nice discovery of this PUB!! Amazing fish and chips and great bottles. A warm welcome. For those who would like to take a look, note that here you order drinks and food directly at the bar, you do not come and take your order at the table, which can be surprising when you come from France.

We held our wedding reception here in May 2024. We highly recommend The George to host a wedding or any special occasion. From when we first made the booking till the end of the night, the staff looked after us very well, were kind, polite and paid attention to the little details. Our elderly guests were looked after very attentively. All dietary requirements were catered to. The staff were flexible about all special arrangements and requests. The food was absolutely excellent and the canapés were plentiful. Our only small quibble was that the music cut out a few times, for which The George apologised and assured us they would upgrade their system. We had a perfect wedding reception. Highly recommended.

Decent pub serving standard drinks. Nice ally way to drink from too. Staff are pretty friendly too. Open till late. I didn't eat there but people who have say the food is really good. Right next to chancery lane station too

Delicious food and we sat up where is was peaceful and quiet. Loved it

Excellent food with a fine choice of beers in a charming historical pub. The staff is very friendly!

We had a massive group booking here for sisters hen meal. It was fabulous - everyone was thrilled with the service and the food. We all really enjoyed it! Everything was on time, prompt and delicious. Drinks served quick too! We had some extra dessert orders to our pre ordered menu and they were able to accommodate those which was lovely! Highly recommend for group bookings. Our server Aditya was great! It was about £60 per person for 3 courses + drink

We had a splendid Sunday roast beef lunch in this historic pub right across from the Royal Courts of Justice. We got a warm welcome and decided to eat on the more casual ground floor than the more restaurant style upper floor. The food was top notch. It’s a special place that we will return to and recommend.

Few dishes, very good, superb pub

The service was dreadful. Can't order drinks first then food after if you're having a meal. Unapologetically unaccommodating for allergies. However, full credit to the chefs for the duck and venison scotch egg was among the greatest things I've ever eaten. The roast was fairly middling, but the portion size was fantastic. If anything quite overpriced, but definitely not extortionate

Away from the hustle and bustle of the west end, bordering the city and directly opppsite The Royal Courts of Justice. Beautiful oak panelled public house from the 17th century. A large selection of local craft beers on draught. Smiling and welcoming staff from start to finish. Very high standard of food, we ordrered scotch eggs and fish n chips and it was devine, fresh cod in a light and crisp batter, homemade mushy peas and homemade tartare sauce, the chips were good too. All in all a very good experience. I enjoyed watching the flocks of beer tasting-pub crawl groups meandering in every half hour, they brought a good atmosphere to the place.

Went here for Sunday Roast. Kids got the fish and chips. All the food was excellent!

Excellent restaurant discovered thanks to the Michelin guide. Very beautiful room and impeccable service. Excellent cuisine and nice wine list. Well done !

Great service, amazing food. Benjamin the waiter did great. Nice music, all staff really attentive. We ordered a Sunday roast

Great food, amazing service and very cool vibes! Special thanks to Benjamin for the excellent service he provided throughout the day

Me and my friends went to this pub for lunch and had the Sunday roast, it was really tasty and the service was great! Benjamin was fantastic, he looked after us the whole time :)

Fantastic olde worlde pub, with lovely seating and full of character and charm. Food and drinks pricey, but we're not Londoners so this could be Fantastic value. On the Strand, opposite the courts. Will return 👍

What I think of as a traditional London pub 👍👍 And in a handy location 😀

Only came for a pint, but the food smelt amazing! This is just the pub atmosphere we were looking for

Delicious scotchegg Great roast Super helpful staff

Lovely pub with amazing food. Beautiful Victorian building; good music; primate atmosphere on the first floor. We loved every moment here.

Everything was great ,the food ,the personal . The local is traditional , if you want to spent wonderful time ,you must try this restaurant

Good welcoming traditional pub. Didn't eat this time apart for some olives which were delicious. Had a bottle of wine.

Went for a beautiful roast dinner, service and food quality was excellent.

Spent Easter Sunday with my friend in this pub. The Sunday Roast here was amazing, the peach&almond tart and chocolate pudding also!! But unfortunately, there was not enough staff so it took us some time to be seated and served. Besides that, everything was perfect.

Excellent vibe and great selection of tap beers.

Very nice service. And the food was delicious. Especially the steak.

We stopped in this pub while we were exploring London. It's quite a large open place, but cozy at the same time. The service was friendly. We didn't eat but had a couple points which were very nice. There were lots of tables that were reserved and this was a Sunday, so if you're going to eat then, I suggest reserving.

Recommend highly staff very welcoming .food excellent.

Came for a Sunday Roast and bottle of wine, it was delicious! Great pub, good selection of beers and wine, and great venue. Staff were always on hand and really enjoyed our time throughout

We popped in the George Sunday lunchtime to rest our feet whilst doing the tourist thing. The look of the pub from outside was what drew us initially, the look of the pub inside the door was olde worldly typical old pubby. Very nice looking, tables clean and well laid out, lovely looking bar and a friendly greeting. We sat there for about an hour having a couple of drinks each before moving on and so had the opportunity to observe the staff interact with other customers. Firstly the barman (fella with the white beard, really sorry didn’t get his name) he personified what you want in bar staff. Chatty, friendly, polite, knowledgeable, barman’s memory for drinks/faces. Excellent. The drinks we had were reasonably priced and we watched different selections of food being delivered to other customers. All were ordered and delivered in good time and in a professional manner. We saw 2x roast dinners, a burger and fish and chips delivered and all smelt and looked delicious. We would definitely return for food next time. A nice thing, the lady next to us dropped a knife, the staff member was over to pick it up before the lady could get off her stool, took it away and on a tray, brought a new one straight back. It was a nice touch and seemed the norm. It was a lovely pub, we would definitely return if in the area. In fact we would make a special detour if we were in the area and plan to have food next time. An excellent visit.

Recommend...nice choice of roasts. service great.We has a nice table in the window with the view of the Court of justice.

My wife and I enjoyed perfectly cooked pork and beef, accompanied by an affordable and palatable bottle of Tempranillo. The background music was slightly intrusive but not unpleasant. Our table had been cleaned, but the surface was slightly sticky. Overall, we enjoyed the occasion and look forward to visiting again.

A large pub opposite the Royal Courts of Justice. They do a very good pint of Timothy Taylor's, with several other quality beers also on tap. Although I didn't eat there, from what I observed the food looked good.

The menu options were not good on the day I went, very dark and dull interior.

Erris was fantastic, he went out of his way to offer a birthday cake and candle for my partner's birthday! Wonderful food and staff and a hearty atmosphere.

What a great pub - such a rarity in central London! The food was great, it's a lovely building and the staff were fantastic - every one of them was warm, friendly, attentive and a pleasure to be served by, a real credit to the place.

Old pub with history Prices ok for area

A handy central place to meet friends after work

Met an old friend for a wander down memory lane (Fleet Street & The Strand!). We weren't intending to visit The George but I'm glad we did. What was intended a a pit-stop as it was torrential rain outside, turned into 5 hours. Pub was relatively empty but filled up with people after 5.00pm. Atmosphere was great, food (just a bowl of chips) was delicious and Lara at the bar was just a delight and made our visit all the more special. She looked after us, made us feel welcome and took the time to talk to us - believe me, a rarity in some London pubs. Will we be back for another visit? 100%.

A Sunday roast with a good service et great welcome by the staff, despite being slightly late to place the food order. I recommend this place....and will return.

Fantastic pub amazing choice on hand pumps including porter's very clean very friendly great location well kept beer really recommend

Old style pub. Very nice. Good wine selection sold by the glas.

Excellent service table was served all afternoon no delays everything we wanted was provided promptly and pleasantly

Booked to have a catchup with friends over a meal and we were really glad we chose the George. The food and service were exceptional, and the surroundings were cosy with a great ambience and low levels of noise so we were easily able to converse. Several of us chose the scallops, followed by fish and chips which were both fantastic. The steak and the veggie option also attracted good comments. The drinks were reasonably priced and was overall a great experience that was good value for money in the centre of London.

very nice. a tad dear for very basic fish and chips

Really great bar with good food. Manager was terrible, complete a hole. He treated us all poorly and said we were kindergarteners. He could not handle stress well and made up excuses that didn’t make sense. Never coming back.

Great athmosphere and location but food is below average. Definitely not a gastropub

This pub was the best food ever. I visited with my family and everyone enjoyed their food. Such a nice place to go with family and friends. Food came fast and the staff were lovely. Such a. Nice atmosphere, nice calm music, comfortable seats and perfect lighting. The staff were so fast, even when it’s busy. I love this place and would love to come again.

Excellent food with especially wonderful hosting from David; he could not have been more attentive and welcoming. Relaxing on a Sunday afternoon.

Amazing Sunday Roast in a lovely traditional setting and relaxed ambience, with great customer service by David and the team. I'm definitely going back for the rack of lamb, looked to die for!

Great pub with the most friendly and welcoming staff. We had Sunday roast chicken and pork. Wow, it was fab. Thank you all. Will make this one of our regular stops in London.

Amazing lunch, the food was delicious and the staff were friendly and helpful, lovely service! Overall a very good experience, will definitely be back

Every time we visit we are made to feel welcome, staff always give that extra personal touch, and the food is exceptional, I would recommend ( and I do) the George for a great meal, good company and wonderful friendly atmosphere!

Food was nice, my partner was very impressed with her vegan roast. Service was a bit non existent despite the 12.5% charge. We were stuck with empty plates until we paid the bill, no attention to detail would have probably had more drinks or dessert if we were looked after, it wasn’t that busy either.

Really nice pub, stumbled on it by accident. Great wine menu, great food. Lovely upstairs dining area. We had a vegan panna cotta with rhubarb that was honestly so delicious. Would definitely eat here again!

Beautiful dining room and the food was just what we were looking for! Great Sunday Roast!

We went there for a Sunday Roast which was amazing. The service so quick and friendly, and the place it’s absolutely beautiful Highly recommended!

Traditional pub, friendly & helpful staff good food with variety quieter upstairs than in the main bar. Went on sunday roast was nice. Cherry & almond tart a delight (as advised by our waitress).

My sister-in law and I had a lovely roast here - my only criticism was that there was no crackling on our pork belly. We shared the scallops as a starter - these were delicious. Thought it was all very reasonable and the staff were friendly.

We pre booked for 5.15. Arrived at 4.45 & was told we couldn't enter the restaurant until 5. We had a drink and went upstairs for 5.15 to find several tables already being served. There was a choice of 4 main courses, 3 of us picked partridge & were then told it had sold out. This shows extremely poor planning for a Saturday night when we were almost the first diners.

A lovely venue but a limited menu and 3 dishes weren’t available despite an early 5.15pm booking. The food was lovely though.

Had a lovely meal here before going to the theatre

Convenient pub located on the Strand. The upstairs restaurant is surprisingly spacious and quiet! We had a lovely dinner there and will definitely go again if nearby!
