Beautiful Green King pub bafflingly devoid of GK IPA or my Sunday favourite Abott. When I asked I was told they were only GK for drinks...not food.... which is even more confusing. Please bring back the Abbot. Thank you.

We visited this pub after spending time with family, and the service was friendly and welcoming. My mother and I both had fish and chips. Having previously operated a mobile unit ourselves, we have some experience in this area. The chips and tartar sauce were outstanding, but for the price (£17), I was expecting a better fillet of fish. While it was good, it wasn't excellent. For that price, I would expect the highest quality fish available. Additionally, the tomato ketchup had an unusual taste and didn't meet my expectations (a well-known brand would have been perfectly fine). Unfortunately, the atmosphere seemed to fade after about 15-20 minutes, and apart from two other customers having drinks, we were the only ones still eating (and this was a Saturday night!). However, I understand that this may be a broader trend and don't necessarily blame the pub for it.I should also mention that the men's toilet cubicle was blocked. To sum up, I believe this pub has great potential but could benefit from a few adjustments.

The staff were helpful and friendly. I would liked to have given 5 stars but the starters took 50 minutes to arrive and the meat for the beef main was somewhat tough. The other dishes were fine. There were 6 adults and 3 small children in our party and I believe there was a large party in another part of the pub at the same time. I can only think the kitchen couldn't cope with the numbers.

Nice homely grade 111 listed building with character A bit cramped as there was 5 of us and they sat us on two small tables pushed together in a very tight space so asked to be moved to a round table which we was able to do so. Ordered 5 roast dinners, the food was cold, sent back and the chef prepared our food again The food was very nice, fresh cooked vegetables lovely roast beef and ox cheek, very tasty although the Yorkshire puddings were too well done (burnt) Only one waitress was helpful ( the one who took our food back) She brought complimentary drinks as a good will gesture. The other waitresses were lacking enthusiasm, nobody came to check to see if we needed anything and we had to keep getting up to ask for things like condiments and drinks. I would visit again due to the good food and the relaxing atmosphere but I would recommend that the chef makes sure that food is hot and the waitresses to be more attentive and be more aware of customer service, and a smile also goes a long way in hospitality which we did not get

Lovely pub and location, our food was really delicious, but there are some things that leave a bad taste. To order your food at the bar and then be charged extra for service before you've even had the food is outrageous. Not something I've ever experienced before. TOG is not what it used to be.

We used to love going to the Old George, especially for their Sunday roast. However we found that over the past few months their prices have increased a lot. We went last week and we spent over £30 per person for a roast and a pint, which seems excessive. The food was lovely, but the portions were a bit scarce, especially for the vegetables, only a few green beans and a couple of potatoes. It's a shame, we love the place but it's now quite expensive for what is being served.

This is a lovely pub, the staff were friendly. Unfortunately the Sunday lunch we had today was poor. The beef was over cooked, the cauliflower in the cauliflower cheese (extra charge) was undercooked with a waterery sauce. Worst of all were the burnt Yorkshire puds, which were inedible. We did mention this to the waitress who said she would get some more, but seemed to forget about us. We will not be returning.

A lovely pub with pleasant staff. Bought drinks and sat outside. It was a sunny autumnal day. Most people preferred the outside space. All tables were 2 metre apart and it was good to see everyone obeying the 2m rule. Ordered Beer battered fish served with pub chips, tartare sauce and crushed peas. It was very tasty. However, the homemade shawarma, marinated Lamb, meditatenean salad and a tzatziki dip with fries was a disappointment. It looked and tasted very dry with little or no sauce. We told the waitress, she apologised and didn't have much to say. In as much that the meal was bellow par, I will visit the pug again but will ensure to avoid the home made shawarma.

Not the best - stuck us in a very cold part of the pub, and it was cold enough that we all commented we should have brought coats with us. Staff forgot what we’d asked for a few times and we had to ask again. Roast was alright, but not amazing. Disappointing when they only do a limited Sunday roast menu (as it’s all they offer you expect it to be good). I had the hog in the hole and the Yorkshire pudding was soggy and the pork belly wasn’t brilliant. Maybe we just caught them on an off-day.
