The George Pub in City of London, Westminster

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!

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.

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

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.

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

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!

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

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

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.

An average pub with over inflated prices! About £11 for a house red wine glass is just bonkers!!

Revived by an mazing Bloody Mary and brought back to life by a perfect pint of Guinness. Many Thanks!

Really excellent experience. Delicious food and genuine enthusiasm and passion from staff. We had a lovely meal and I will be back soon for sure.

Thank you to The George, London, where the Sunday roast was truly an absolute hit. Offered here are chicken, beef, lamb and vegetarian (in the form of a mushroom and celeriac pithivier). Roast potatoes are simply delectable - fluffy innards and crisp seasoned outers. I find a roast potato often sets the standard for the rest of the plate. Wine selection and service were very good: we weren’t hurried off our table but were gently nudged shortly before the next booking. Points for improvement? The cauliflower cheese, which was lacking in cheese, and the mushroom sauce for the veggie roast could be more plentiful and spreadable.

Oh my life, my family and I had an unforgettable meal at The George, London. There may possibly be other pubs in London named 'The George', but make no mistake; no others compare. The atmosphere was great and Pedro was the most sincere and wonderful experience manager we could have asked for. Much appreciated everyone 🙏 ❤️

Oh dear, noisy, smelly and totally unorganised! Not sure where to begin, booked a table for 5 but when we arrived only table for 4 was reserved. Had to wait for 30min till another was found. The meal did not arrive for a party of 5 together, one of us had to wait another 10min for his to arrive. All may be forgiven, but inedible roast beef on a Sunday in an English pub is unacceptable. We won’t be back

The Gorege used to be lovely pub few years back but currently went down hill because off stew the manger !!!

Food and drinks were yummy. Ambience and service were all great!

Fantastic buzzy pub, great service and the Irish women in the white shirt was amazing

Well I think we have hit the Sunday roast Jackpot. Ordered the roast sharing plate and certainly were not disappointed. It was also a nice touch having a selection of different gravies. The beef gravy was one of the best that I have had.

Good service and scotch egg. Beef slices for Sunday roast much thinner than pictured

Simply an original, good service, delicious food, ambience, perfect!!!

Like David Beckham claiming you have a strong right foot, as a fat American, I can honestly say this is the best fried Chicken I’ve ever had. (The much less fat GF says it’s phenomenal with the “English Fizz” (aka champagne) to boot)

One of the best Sunday Roasts I’ve had. For a starter, we split the Scotch Egg and Prawn Salad. The Scotch Egg was perfect. The Prawn Salad was okay, but doesn’t take away from the 5 Stars. We split the sampler roast (beef/chicken/lamb), it was outstanding! Enough for 3 or 4 people. We didn’t go away hungry. Service and food was excellent, Keep up the great job!

Really disappointing Sunday roast, after reading all the reviews I decided to take my family for a birthday meal. Nothing was seasoned and I had to salt almost every single component of the meal. Service was a bit slow and thought everything was overpriced sadly.

Excellent Sunday roast. Love the scotch egg and sticky toffee pudding! Beef was lovely.

The Guinness and food is great, I have eaten at The George three times and it’s been faultless each time. Mark has always been so welcoming and accommodating when I’ve been in with my young children. I believe it’s the best service I’ve received in a pub in London. Thank you Mark.

The fish and chips is so good that it will make you forget that your wife is cheating on you.

A lovely dining experience and atmosphere! Emma my waitress was a joy to meet and the Fish and Chips, The Best I Ever Had! I also enjoyed the welsh rarebit croquettes, mushy/mash peas, and The George Fruit Trifle (great recommendation Emma!).

Highly recommend. Excellent ambience. Very friendly & efficient service. Great food.

Decent Bar, good service. Nice atmosphere. Great location!

Quick drink...bar staff abrupt. There are plenty of other places to drink in London.

This pub has a great atmosphere and is normally packed full of local office workers during the week. It has a great beer selection even non alcoholic beer on draft. It can get quite busy after work, though that does add to the atmosphere.

We absolutely LOVED our meal yesterday. Everything was 10/10. The service, we didn’t catch his name but he was tall, wore glasses and had a strong voice. He was absolutely amazing, went above and beyond every time he visited our table or walked by. Every single thing was amazing, thank you so much. Already recommended you to others and will continue to do so!

The best Sunday roast I’ve had. Pretty expensive though

It is certainly up there. Beautiful pub with the restaurant upstairs. Friendly staff. Went for the Lamb Shoulder for 2. Everything came in its own metal trays which was great. Lots of Raosties, a big Yorkshire each. Great whole size veg, sauce and finally the most beautiful lamb I have tasted. Soft and cooked just right. Bursting with flavours. Had a couple of nice deserts to finish off. Although expensive worth trying if you want to treat yourself!

My pub was a classic, cool London pub and the meals were absolutely delicious. Unfortunately I had to wait 30 mins and ask staff for my main meal to come out, but it was worth the wait for the classic fish & chips. It comes in 2 sizes and I chose the smaller potion. It was just what I needed. The bathroom was clean and good quality too.

Great local pub. Relaxed but still nice.

Come here for the drinks and the amazing atmosphere. Food is average but the atmosphere is what it is all about!

Very nice pub with amazing staff. We came to stop there around 2 p.m. for a drink. The pub was relatively empty but not surprising for a Friday after the lunch rush. We ordered a Guinness and an elderberry syrup which the waiter graciously offered me. The service is fast and all the staff are really friendly without it sounding fake. The decoration is very beautiful and you feel comfortable very quickly. The music is not too loud and there are even sockets available. The food looked good but we weren't hungry. We saw the fish and chips pass by which looked huge, and everything looked homemade. The drinks were good, and the prices perhaps a little high, but the place is a little more formal than the neighborhood bar. Allow £7 for a Guinness. Hygiene is impeccable and the bartender even grabs the straw with his tweezers to avoid touching it. In summary? A very beautiful pub, ideal for relaxing and hydrating before continuing the visits. The kitchen seems to be very good. I would have happily returned if I lived nearby.

As an American, the food for Sunday Roast was terrible, but everyone around us was finishing their plates. Maybe it was just us?

Cute Traditional, Cosy London Style pub

Seems to have been recently refurbished with class and happy to have it as a handy local for a pit stop en route for dinner in Soho.

Smiley and friendly Asian male bar tender with glasses. It’s the small things but I appreciated it.

This place has amazing Sunday roast and I would highly recommend it. The beef was particulars good. Cocktails were also absolutely fantastic, the spicy peach margaritas were a definite favourite of ours. Additional perk of this establishment is that they serve Sunday roast up until 7pm, which is quite unique in London. Desserts were also exquisite, the sticky toffee pudding we tried was one of the best I’ve had. I would highly recommend

The best fish’n chips I’ve had on my two weeks journey in England!!

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

I visited The George last night for the first time after it was highly recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint! The staff was so lovely, service was great, the food was unreal, and their cocktails are delicious (especially the spicy peach margarita, which you can get frozen or on the rocks). We headed down the the main floor bar after dinner where there was live music going on which was a really nice surprise and they were really good. This place has such a fabulous vibe, I will definitely be back and will recommend The George to everyone!

Great pie and ales, very busy place with sports on screen. Lost if great history and building has lots off the old character, fun spot for a bit on London history!

Lovely corner street public house. Beautifully decorated inside and out. The bar is a traditional look of dark oak and a racing geen paint for decor. Photos on the walls dating history throughout. Even the Lovely staircase down to the toilet which continue the paint theme of racing green and dark oak. Toilets were immaculate and with candle incense. Food was outstanding, I had the Pork Cheek Curry.. oh wow.. presented Beautifully and tasted out if this world, £25. But worth it. Selection if drinks as expected in a bar, but all served with a great service and happy staff.

Quality Sunday roast, potatoes, veg and beef was cooked to perfection. Very chilled and relaxed on Sundays.

Excellent pub! The service was amazing. The food and drinks very good. Very nice atmosphere. Don't hesitate to go there

Food was decent albeit arguably a bit overpriced but our waiter was superb and this made the difference.

Best fish and chips that I had in London.

Saw this place on a youtube video and checked it on google maps, rating was high enough. What a nice pub to spend your evening with your friends. No need to reserve before popping-in. There was a live music on saturday. Not sure if they have it all week. Beers around 6-7 pounds. Their kitchen is open until 10 pm. Strongly recommended!

Sunday afternoon. TVs have the olympics on in the background. Good crowd. Friendly staff. Glasses cleared away quickly and discreetly.

No complaints. Highly recommend a visit. Three of us for a Special lunch.

Exactly how you imagine a London pub, good food, London prices. We had dinner upstairs, very nice, characteristic and a bit chic.

Gorgeous high ceilings in the upstairs room. Feels like a trip back in time, in a good way

So far, the best Sunday roast I've had since moving to the UK 14 years ago. The quality of the food is outstanding—nothing compares to any other pubs nearby. The service was excellent, and we were really pleased with what we ordered. I will definitely go back again!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed your restaurant. The food was wonderful and your staff was exceptional. Thank you for a fun evening!

Paying £30+ for a roast you expect it to be really good - but was pretty poor. Veg and potatoes were bland. All the sides were so small and expensive, including £3.50 for extra gravy. Service was a bit slow and forgetful. Not as special as we'd expected.

Great food and service. Highly recommended!

Everything is really good. Highly recommended

I love this classic style British pub with a modern twist. Downstairs great atmosphere and upstairs top notch food. Among my fav pubs that still feels “independent” Cheers team!

A pub that hides a real restaurant on its upper floor. The menu offers typical English dishes, we chose the "The George cheeseburger" and the beer-battered fried fish and chips, the latter really good. The cheeseburger, however, was without praise as well as really too expensive compared to the quality and workmanship offered. Kind service. Nice location, typical of a pub, the negative point is the strong air conditioning!

Very possibly the best pub I've ever been in, in my entire life. Great food, Great Guinness, Great hospitality. You really can't go wrong.

Great food. Great drinks. Great staff

Sat with some friends upstairs for a bite. Had a mix of small plates and it was great. Good sizes, well seasoned, excellent sauces. I still think about their freshly baked bread with whipped butter. Great stuff.

Fair sized pub but generally very busy on a weeknight. Seating around the pub but not enough for everyone! Roped off area outside. Watch out for the reserved tables - you'll be kicked off when the time comes! Efficient bar staff and doesn't take too long to get a drink. Reasonable selection of drinks.

Stopped in while walking around London. Amazing pub. Great Guinness & Irish Coffee. They even made my lady a tequila Espresso Martini. Fish and chips was pretty solid (we got the small one as a snack before our dinner later). Bartender (glasses, Asian man) was wonderful!

Arrogant and rude service by two waitrons.

Lovely pub, decent pricing and great staff. Chris has been very helpful :)

I'm lucky enough to work around the corner from this pub and we absolutely love it! The staff are always friendly and helpful. Atmosphere always buzzing. Choice of ales, pioneering and the food off the chart! Scotch eggs out of this world. Not the cheapest establishment but then you get what you pay for. Thanks guys. Don't change a thing!

Excellent food, great beer on taps / pumps, good selection of whisky, gins and other spirits. Helpfull and caring waiters and bartenders. Classic and cozy interiors, with nice woodwork.

Great food and service! Loved it and would recommend to try the local pub cuisine

The George is a nicely decorated upscale pub in a convenient location. Well done cocktails. The roast lunch featured a very impressive Yorkshire pudding. The basic roast lunch was too much to eat....sides unnecessary.

This is the nicest pub I have ever been to, and Mike is undoubtedly the greatest bartender ever to exist

Special food, extra ordinary delcious taste, very good service. Must try

Busy pub. We went on a Thursday evening for a drink and food. Pre booked and I suggest you do to. Food was a grade above your standard pub food, especially the Scotch egg. 👍

Very nice and kind staff, excellent IPA and the fries were amazing. Excellent music and non-touristy environment

We had a wonderful Sunday early evening roast. The staff were very accommodating and informative. The upstairs dining area is super comfortable with nice ambiance. The toast itself was sooooo good! We had the sharing option for 2 people and it was plenty of food. We had to take some home. A mix of all the meats and trimmings. I would highly recommend this roast but of course also recommend booking ahead as there is no guarantee of not. Also it is best to book before 5pm as to again guarantee all the food hasn’t been scoffed!

We had googled somewhere to have a decent roast dinner, booked a table and made our way here, inside is what you would expect from a traditional British pub, friendly staff and good atmosphere. We ordered the sharing roast dinner for 4 of us and although we waited a while for it , it was worth the wait!! It was absolutely amazing, roast potatoes like I’ve never tasted and lamb was to die for!! It is a little expensive for a pub but we thoroughly enjoyed it and were absolutely stuffed after it!!

Disappointed as table couldn’t take the food and we did not order anything unusual. Table was just far too small for a sharing Sunday lunch order. Waitress was disinterested even when we pointed out they had missed the £50 for the wine from our bill didn’t have the courtesy to say thank you. Food was ok but they were underwhelming.

Fantastic food, service and the best fish and chips I’ve eaten.

I came here several times for drinks and once for dinner upstairs. Food was very nice and a great selection of tasty cocktails. The downstairs pub are gets very full

Best meal ever! I got to enjoy the Sunday roast, and it was so worth every minute of it. Start off with some drinks and starters, but also leave room for dessert. Everything we ordered was amazing!

Amazing staff and drinks such a great and beautiful venue.

While it's of a high price, the food is well worth it. If you're out for a Sunday Lunch/Dinner, this one was fantastic. I'll certainly be back there again.

Visited for the Sunday roast as had seen reviews from instagram. I have to say, instagram does not do this place justice. We ordered the sharing roast and the Yorkshire pudding was larger than the dinner plate. The three cuts of meat were super juicy and full of flavour. Veggies were cooked to perfection and the roast potatoes where some of the crispiest I have ever had. We were told the roast would be roughly 20 minutes in prep time and because it was closer to 30 minutes the staff bought us some fried chicken to tie us over and thank us for waiting. An incredibly kind gesture which was not necessary but appreciated all the same. You must join the George for your Sunday roast

We came for the Sunday roast. We did the shared plate for 2 with lamb, chicken and beef. It was amazing. Everything was perfectly cooked and seasoned. We also had the black pudding scotch egg and cottage pie bites. Both were tasty and came with their unique sauces. We finished off with sticky toffee pudding. This is a must-have. It was probably the best dessert I've ever had. Staff was so friendly. Be sure to book reservations well ahead. Will definitely be back when we're in town again.
