The George Pub in City of London, Westminster

Try the sunday roast! Also nice live music a bit alow the servixe Very good cocktail

Limited food options, under seasoned prawns, worst was the cocky manager who wasn’t helpful at all with the bill. Snobbish and bad service from that middle aged woman. Oh and not to mention this place has a 13.5% “discretionary” charge which is higher than the usual 12.5%.

Went for the Sunday roast and would go again. The beef roast and all the trimmings were fantastic, particularly the potatoes. The roast was very filling and unfortunately we didn’t have any room dessert but we can’t complain. They’re obviously quite busy on Sundays as it did take quite some time for our meals to come out. We were sat upstairs in a room which lacked the atmosphere that other parts of the pub had. If booking request downstairs or the main dining area upstairs.

We enjoyed l9vely Sunday roast here. Good foodfriendly service.

Sunday Roast was so good we came back for more

I’m sure it’s great— but the hours on Google are not correct.

A fantastic spot to soak up the classic pub vibe with excellent food and warm, friendly service. Perfect for lunch — we enjoyed the best fish and chips, and everything from the beer to the mocktails, starters to dessert, was spot on. Located right in the heart of Marylebone. Don’t forget to try black pudding scotch egg!

We arrived in the late afternoon and there was plenty of room in the restaurant. The waiters were very nice and helpful even when there was a mistake and brought us a dish we didn't order - they immediately apologized and brought the correct dish instead. We ordered for a first course - Black Pudding Scotch Egg, there is no doubt that it was well made but it is not the flavors we are used to :) For the main we shared FISH&CHIPS which was amazingly fried. In addition, we took mashed potatoes - insanely buttery! It should be noted that the prices are not cheap as befits London.

Love the george. Staff nice food good

5 Sunday Roast, you glorious British tradition. The George does a good one...and the shared portion so you can try the beef, lamb and pork..the veggies are terrific, roast potatoes to die for. Not much more to say...it's great.

One of the most beautiful experience in our 30 years dining out in London. Beautiful place and super delicious food. No enough words to describe but you must try and will not be disappointed. Thank you for having us. Enrico & family

Booked into the private dining room for a small wedding celebration. Room was perfect, service was excellent and food was delicious. Thank you for helping to make our day special

Fairly good food, middling service, overpriced (even for London). Sunday roast beef was tough with lots of silverskin/connective tissues—about a third of the serving was inedible. The ‘large’ fish & chips would be considered small–average in most pubs. £7+ pints, although admittedly these tasted fresh.

This is officially my favorite fish n chips now in London!! 🇬🇧 @thegeorgepublichouse I saw it at @eatingwithtod and @jamesdimitri I love the crispy crunchy batter they put on top! I ordered only half an order thinking I couldn’t finish it but I realized I could! It wasn’t oily at all and I didn’t get that greasy full feeling after!! Don’t forget the malt vinegar and tartare sauce!! A MUST TRY in London if you like fish n chips!!

Very nice staff BUT completely overrated food online and the price too expensive for the average standard the truly meal was.

I visited The George upstairs restaurant with my husband and it was, frankly, a gruesome experience. The first impression was a dirty, grimey carpet and a heavy, stale air that made the whole place feel unpleasant from the start. The ventilation is poor, and the loud bass thudding from the pub downstairs completely ruined any chance of a relaxed meal. The noise from drunken customers didn’t help either — it felt more like sitting in a tired old pub than a restaurant. The food was deeply disappointing. We both had the prawn cocktail to start — a tiny, sad portion with prawns literally cut in half to bulk it out. My husband ordered the chicken curry, which barely contained any chicken, and the sauce was loaded with sugar. The accompanying mini poppadums were so salty they were completely inedible. I had the beef cheek for my main course, which was passable, but hardly enough to redeem the experience. Overall, The George felt grubby, noisy, and depressing. Substandard food at premium prices. And baffling how anyone rates this place. We couldn’t wait to get out of there.

Best pub in London with amazing food

Down stairs is a great pub, lots of fun. Dining upstairs is like eating in a cemetery. Staff moves at the speed of the dead. Lots of windows but they are covered in curtains that can't be open. Food was just ok.

Tasty food, nice beer and friendly atmosphere. Definitely would recommend

Tuve que visitar después de ver en las redes sociales y no me decepcionó, joya escondida en la calle, pero es una visita obligada. Habíamos reservado el almuerzo y estábamos sentados arriba, que es muy acogedor y bordeando el hacinamiento, ya que el asiento está empacado cerca, esto fue el único negativo para mí, pero la comida era fantástica! Tuvimos el huevo escocés y rasguños de cerdo para empezar y ambos tenían fish & chips como principal de cada tamaño. Definitivamente volvería o posiblemente probaría allí juegos de palabras hermanas la próxima vez.

Went there for food, the only good thing was butermilk friend chicken and the wine , lucky me they don’t make the wine , otherwise even that would be horrible If you die of hunger go eat there , otherwise don’t even think food it’s absolutely horrible , and the place looks like a living room from some Indian house in Ruislip And tables are small can’t fit 3 plates on lol I’ve been eating better food at food trucks , and this was not even close to a food truck , they don’t even know how to steam potatoes or add salt Note to the manager: Please keep on drinks and verify the reviews , must be scam

went with a group of friends to celebrate my birthday...everything we ordered was excellent .. and the staff thoughtfully left a card on the table as well as candles on the desert

Fish & Chips was really good and the menu overall looked great id go back to try something else. The service was also top tier

La comida en este restaurante es muy buena; todo estaba delicioso, sin embargo, la cantidad de tiempo que tomó para que la comida saliera fue simplemente demasiado tiempo. Llegamos, pedimos, y tuvimos que esperar una hora ridícula solo para que nuestro aperitivo saliera. En general, probablemente deberías esperar una hora para cada curso.

Lovely place to have dinner.. we were seated in the red room on the first floor and it was a nice place to converse and grab a bite with volumes not as high as the ground floor..we ordered all the favorites namely the black pudding scotch eggs, pork scratching, fish and chips and the bone marrow curry with mashed potatoes.. loved the taste nd the look of each of the dishes.. the service was good too. Definitely worth coming back for.

I saw this pub on 'Eating With Tod' & decided to give it a go. I went first on Sunday night but was told the kitchen closed at 8 pm. So, I went back Monday for lunch! I tried their signature Old Fashioned (comes with a beautifully branded ice block), Scotch Egg & Fish'n'Chips. I loved how the egg was runny & the outer meat didn't separate from the egg that easily. The Fish stands apart here because of the batter & the extra crispy bits they put on top sprinkled with Maldon. The place had nice vibes & polite service.

Pedimos el Trio Roast, todo estaba muy bueno, excepto que las patatas asadas eran crudas, y la carne era muy masticable, rump definitivamente necesita un poco más de cocción. Faltaba servicio, vergüenza, lo estábamos esperando, visto en todas las redes sociales, nos fuimos decepcionados, si estás cobrando precios premium del asado, tiene que ser correcto y tristemente no fue esta vez.

¡Estuvo genial! Había un menú agradable y nuestro servidor era muy servicial! Toda la comida era muy buena y nos gustó mucho!

Definitely having a moment on Instagram with food reviewers and I'd say worthy of that. Food is upscale pub/British stuff. Very nice scotch egg, good prawn cocktail (although maybe some brown bread and butter would be good with it), quirky pork scratchings. We went on a Sunday and no one wanted a roast so only a few main courses on: burger, ish and chips and a paneer curry. We had burgers and small fish and chips. Burger served medium and super tasty. Fish and chips has extra battered scraps on top. Too full for pudding. Lovely service. Very good Guinness. It is pricey though.

The food was amazing. We ordered fish and chips and warm parker house bread rolls. The staff were friendly and the wait time was short. The pub is 11mins walk from Portland train station.

Amazing food! The fish and chips were great, very crispy batter, the scotch egg was amazing, and the porks scratchings were so nice. The staff was great very attentive and helpful.

Expensive but great atmosphere, all walks of life 👍

A great old London pub, we had bar snacks that were very tasty, served a decent pint but I never seem to get the best pint in London, good service, was nice and busy, only let down was the building work, the whole pub is covered in scaffold and plastic sheeting Still good though Thank you

We had a lovely lunch on a recent trip to London. The food was good and our server, Dean, was great.

What a great spot in London! We visited from TN and Nicola put on March Madness so we wouldn’t miss the big game! Sunday Roast was wonderful and the Scotch egg was delish. Highly recommend!

Wonderful pub lunch, highly recommend 👍

The best gastro-pub in London!

It's not what Instagrammers publish

Came with a large group over the weekend. A few of us ordered the steak and chips and asked for it to be cooked medium and it came really rare couldn’t finish it. The atmosphere and service were very good.

Beautiful old world pub. Creamy pints of Guinness, possibly the best in London. Exceptional food and even better Irish coffees. We will be back soon!

Ok. Wish I could have tried the food, but you need to book well in advance if you want to eat here, even if you're by yourself (one person), in March. Plenty of good places elsewhere that have room for 1!

The service is lovely and the atmosphere great but their fish and chips, £26 and it is not the best chippy I’ve tried. If you’re looking for a great one, Mayfair Chippy or Poppies

Decent place, classic pub, food is really tasty. Prices are normal for central London

Service is great, attentive and friendly. You could always find someone when you needed them. Came for St. Patricks Day and received Irish coffees on the house, which was a lovely gesture. The food is really good, albeit a tad expensive (curry sauce for £3.75 is steep in my view) Guinness was good. We did the Paddys Day quiz, which was good fun although at times we struggled to hear the quizmaster as the pub was quite noisy at times. Overall it's an excellent place to come for some food and a few drinks and I'll definitely return and sample their a la carte menu next time.

Great roast dinner here, with friendly accommodating staff.

A warm welcome, good food and gloriously good Guinness. Dog friendly too. We'll definitely return.

Everything was fine. Totally delicious cocktails.

Really disappointing experience. Having visited a few times before, my friend booked, on my recommendation, to have lunch with a friend and to watch the rugby. We arrived a few minutes early and our table wasn’t ready, which is ok, and we were shown to a smaller bar upstairs to wait there, which seemed great rather than just standing in the way. Upon entering this small room/bar, there was a member of The George team, in the staff T-shirt behind the bar, to whom I said “Hi there, how’s it going?” And they proceeded to stare at me for a second, before ignoring me and going back to whatever they were doing and walking out. Another guest who was in there even looked at me raised an eyebrow and he passed me the drinks menu, not the member of staff. My friend and I waited in there and after it had got to 10-15 minutes after our booking time, I went to ask if they knew when we would be seated to be told “yeah, yeah, it’ll be a few more minutes we’re just setting the table” and the person walked off. I went back to the bar to find my friend. We were then told our table was ready, but the member of staff disappeared for a moment without us knowing which table was ours. When they returned, and showed us to the table, I said “just as a bit of feedback” and mentioned being ignored earlier and rather than a “I’m sorry” or some form of acceptance that ignoring a client is rude, the host said “oh that’s not his job, he isn’t a host”, kept repeating that line, and couldn’t seem to wrap her head around ignoring someone who has come into your business, because you’re not a host, still isn’t acceptable. We were seated at the same time as another table, who then walked out and were replaced by other guests a few minutes later, who then got served and had their drinks order taken before us. At this point we were told our first drinks would be free due to the wait for our table, and we said no, we were happy to pay our way, and had to reiterate that as they kept insisting the two pints would be free which was just awkward. We appreciated the gesture, but hadn’t asked for it and when we said, no, we’d pay, it really should have ended there. Once food and such arrived, the staff then checked in too much, my friend and I believe as they realised we were a little annoyed, to the point that when I had a third of a pint left, one chap asked me if I had finished it and tried to clear it. The food itself is usually quite good at The George and I enjoyed my starters and mains, and my friend and I both enjoyed the dessert, however he ordered a large portion of fish and chips and appeared to get a medium, with we believe his going to another table. The fish and chips he did get seemed too oily/greasy, and has since been left feeling unwell. Overall, staff really dragged things down, I’m still confused about being ignored and then having someone repeatedly try to justify that as being acceptable because the person wasn’t a host. The over attention after, and then at the end, after being sat near 20 minutes late for our booking, being given our bill, without it asked for, before our slot was up, to ensure we were out, left us feeling not particularly welcome. The George is a place I have enjoyed visiting on a number of occasions, but I won’t be back, I don’t like being ignored and then having someone repeatedly tell me the person ignoring me isn’t there to say hello and it’s ok, because he isn’t a host.

I only drank a couple of beers. I didn't try the food but the service was okay. The pub was full and it is very small.

Great London pub. Fantastic food and service. Plenty of seating inside. I went just after opening (12) and had a choice of seats. One for beer lovers. Some great breweries on tap. Food was the highlight. Varied menu choices. Recommend the Black pudding scotch egg.

Lovely pub and delicious food !

Excellent fish and chips. La sauce aux câpres est un délice !!! Très copieux voire même trop copieux !! Je recommande à 100%

The George on the corner of Mortimer and Great Portland Streets is a lovely dark timber lined pub offering a wide choice of keg and cask beers. Great service and a thoroughly pleasant place to stop for a drink.

We had a great dinner for 6 upstairs in the green room. The pub downstairs was extremely busy and we had a pint before our reservation. Our table was ready and we were impressed with the atmosphere and comfy furniture provided. I thought the fish&chips were very good and everyone seemed happy with their other dishes like the venison pie. The star of the show was the sticky toffee pudding for dessert. Service was professional and gave us all the time we needed to catchup with old friends. Thank you!

Great old school pub with friendly service and a fish and chips worth a detour for. The apple crumble desert was heavenly.

Great pub with a genuine feel, friendly expert bar staff and good beer.

Lunch in London on Saturday afternoon, nice place inside but in my opinion excessively expensive. There are 6 of us and we take various things: fish and chips, scotched egg (very good), cheeseburger, bacon and chicken breast salad, Indian dish with pork. For 1 main course and 1 beer each, the price is around 45 euros per person, not justified in my opinion. Considering that London is very very expensive, in the end you can also stay there to taste some typical dishes (such as eggs, venison pie and other things), but don't expect it to be cheap.

Pranzo a Londra il sabato pomeriggio, locale bello all'interno ma a mio avviso eccessivamente caro. Siamo in 6 e prendiamo varie cose : Fish and chips, scotched egg (molto buono), cheesburger, insalata bacon e petto di pollo, piatto indiano con il maiale. Per 1 piatto principale e 1 birra a testa, prezzo sui 45 euro a persona, non giustificato a mio avviso. Considerando che Londra è molto molto cara, alla fine ci può anche stare per assaggiare dei piatti tipici (come le uova, venison pie e altre cose), ma non aspettatevi che sia conveniente.

Una cena muy agradable para cuatro en el comedor de arriba - la comida y el servicio eran excelentes. Como dijo el crítico en el Financial Times, "Maldita sea casi perfecto". No te dejes llevar por el andamio exterior - interior, todo en el interior es punta - condición superior.

Visitó el 8 de febrero para ver el Six Nations Rugby (Inglaterra v Francia) y tuvo una experiencia realmente positiva. El personal era tan atento, el servicio era excelente y a pesar de lo ocupado que estaba The George, el ambiente era excelente. Agradecido de que pudimos reservar una mesa con antelación, la pantalla estaba bien posicionada y el ambiente era genial. Gracias a todo el personal que lo hizo una gran visita - ustedes trabajan increíblemente duro para hacer The George tan grande como es!

Very lively place with good food. Try the venison pie!

Nice atmosphere, bit pricey for the pints though.

What looked potentially nice was very very average. Food was all incredibly bland, right down the trifle. All dishes that you would have expected to be rich in flavour were somewhat lack lustre. It’s attempting to be the Devonshire but misses the mark yet carries a hefty price. Noise from downstairs also makes for a terrible atmosphere.

Got the Sunday roast and boy was it a platter! The sauces complemented the meats very well, and the vibe was vibing. It was a lot of food so bring your hungry bellies!

disgusting, smelly, urine all over the toilets, broken glass all over the pavement. clueless and self-absorbed clientele making it impossible to navigate around the pavement as well. staff do FA about controlling any of this

Great pub Sunday roast, one of the best in London.

Went here for dinner last week. Fish and chips! Ate upstairs which is quieter and nicer.

⚠️Closes at 11pm (not 12am as it says on Google Map). 💰Service charge 13.5% and £1 for a bottle of tap(?) water added to the bill. 🍽️ Good but expensive. Had a fried chicken burger and chips (£18.5) and a spicy margarita (£14). The marg was pretty nice actually, esp for a pub. 📋 Interesting and good range of menu, the pub classics and a few unique dishes. Expensive! If say £50 pp with a starter £10, main £25 plus a drink £15. 💡The place is small and gets crowded quickly. But turnover is fast too. 3 of us walked in at 7:30pm on a Tues, got nice seats.

Me and 2 friends spent the day in the west end from the jeff beck exhibition near green park to Bradley's and the social. We heard the music but the pub looked closed due to the scaffolding. But what a wonderful surprise. When we went in. A great solo guitarist knocking out the classics with a great voice. Lovely staff and best of a great pint of huiness and pale ale. I hope no one reads this review. It's my new No.1 west end pub. Top marks to the team behind the refit and running it. Top marks all round.

Worst London pub food ever - and despite having many good meals in pubs over the years that’s a low bar. Several of us couldn’t even finish our meal. Staff had a serious attitude as well which just added insult to injury. Just say no.

The fish and chips are extraordinary, the best in the town, i am speechless, i ate it at Berties in Edinburg, the George is getting high with 12 points from myside

Tried just scotch eggs, but too greasy for my taste.

Not many options on menu, but enjoyed the fish and chips. It was huge. Maybe a bit pricey overall.

It's so dark that I can't even see the text on the menu (I think it's a concept, but why...) The staff is very friendly. You can just drink without ordering food. I ordered fish and chips and butter chicken. The food tastes just average.

Really good food and atmosphere. Great recommendations from Dean for food and drinks. Keep doing the great work and thank you !

Amazing Pub with so much history and a really authentic feel

We had the Sunday Roast and it was absolutely delicious. The lamb was so well cooked it melted in your mouth and the potato’s were very crunchy and delicious.

Really nice place to go, great atmosphere always! Come here with me and my pals all the time, greeted amazingly by one of the staff Toby every time. Staff are really friendly and create a great environment for community.

Sarah is a breath of fresh air and provided amazing service, especially considering she was on a busy floor all by herself! 10/10

Fantastic experience at The George! The food was top-notch, and Pedro’s service was impeccable – friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations. Can’t wait to return!

I was so excited to try The George, I'd booked for 8 of us to have dinner there in the dining room about 5 weeks in advance (with it being the festive period). I had a call 2days before my reservation to check we were still able to come. The lady on the phone asked 'are you happy to sit downstairs?' to which I said yes as I assumed it would be a downstairs area of the restaurant. Instead it was a table in the pub section and it was extremely rowdy/busy and we couldn't hear one another well over the noise. In the end we ended up having to leave and find somewhere else to eat which was SO a shame as the menu looked so delicious. If you're going then make sure they don't seat you in the pub for dinner! To respond to the below, we were absolutely not offered a table upstairs within 30 mins, we were simply told that upstairs was fully booked and they could not accommodate us so we had to leave to find another restaurant. I booked a table for 8 people, 5/ 6 weeks in advance! So we were a large group! When I was phoned about the booking I was simply asked if "downstairs was alright?" To which I answered yes as I assumed it would still be the dining room and not the pub floor! There was no mention of the dining room being 'fully booked' and that we would have to be seated in the pub area. As I said above I booked a long way in advance as we were a party of 8. I'm really disappointed by the inaccuracies in your reply here but thank you for providing an email address.

Five of us stopped for a drink and took advantage of the comfortable room to talk calmly. Wide choice of drinks (being a teetotaler I appreciated that you could also drink apple/orange juice). The fries we ordered were also good. Friendly staff! Excellent location

I really wanted to like the George but unfortunately the food was let down by long wait times, fatty cuts and missing items. For over £70 a head it feels wrong to be waiting nearly an hour for a Sunday roast, especially as after waiting we were told there is no pork. No real apology or ask if they could substitute/if we wanted to change our order, more told 'were going to give you extra of the beef and lamb’. It seemed to just be replaced with more lamb (only 6 slices of beef between four people). The lamb was overly fatty and some pieces inedible. Portion size for the price was small considering it was supposed to be between four. (One bowl of vegetables, two half potatoes per person). The starters and cocktails were good, and the atmosphere was nice, but sadly the meal felt like a let down. I’d go for drinks and bar snacks, or wait until the Christmas season is over.

The Green Room is a great little snug type room off the main pub. Was great to have your own private space whilst being so close to the action.

Awful food service. We were there for Christmas menu at £75 per head and the dinner came at 10 minute intervals and finally we did not get any veg... We had booked a private room (the green room)and it was a disaster. Never go ther it os a rip off and the food is awful

Such a lovely pub , very authentic with amazing food. Loved the bubbly wine. Will definitely be back soon.

Food was cold and unseasoned. We were sat at the door which opened often and allowed cold in.

I would recommend booking upstairs for dinner. The staff couldn't have been more friendly and kind. We went on my husband's birthday. They even had a card for him when we arrived! The food was nice and the decor was lovely

Outstanding food, perfect service and a stunning decor - can’t recommend the Indian dishes such as the onion bhaji and the chilli and coriander toastie enough!! Our server was great and the upstairs seating area is so beautiful. Will definitely be back! Came back for dinner and it was incredible - highly recommend the Sunday roast, the paneer curry and their English sparkling wines.

Un lugar fantástico para reunirse con amigos para bebidas casuales y buena comida. Es un pub clásico de Londres, pero con una gran vibra y comida que es digna del bombo.

Really really good Sunday roast! I love the interior, and the little green room upstairs is a perfect place for a long Sunday lunch. Super friendly service also. The beef could have been more tender and the potatoes have more salt, but the meat was perfectly cooked and all the trimmings were super flavourful, especially the red cabbage. Next level Bloody Mary, and the Welsh rarebit croquettes were amazing. Prices are quite steep, but for the quality and the location, it’s reasonable

Great food , fish and chips was incredible huge potion and they do an amazing Guinness

A pub in which you simply feel good Definitely my favorite pub that I visited during a trip to London. Beautiful interior is really cosy and relaxing, music is not too loud, so you can easily talk. Wide selection of very good beer, I really enjoyed hazy (don't remember the exact name). Scotch egg, which I had for the first time, was well prepared.

Excellent place!! Good atmosphere, good service and good food. It was our first time at The George and we will return. Excellent place!! Good atmosphere, good service and good food. It was our first time at The George and we will definitely return

Extremely disappointed in their Sunday roast!

Amazing Scott egg! Lovely atmosphere for a Friday night. We were sat upstairs but the pub was lively. I also had the new hot dog which was nice. They're not very veggie friendly tho. There were options but not many but for the rest of menu it was great

Unfortunately just does not live up to the instagram hype. A bang average London pub. Sorry

Lovely pub, great food and kind staff 😁

As always great! The Sunday roast is amazing!

Gorgeous pub in a great location. The Guinness was good and the food was absolutely delicious.
