Stopped in here on way home, very impressed. Nice greeting upon arriving, good banter with the people behind the bar. Had the mixed grill and the gammon. We were both very happy with the food, steak was cooked perfect, chicken was moist. The chips were lovely. All reasonably priced. Will definitely be returning. Great for families, lots of room, various size tables, good menu not over complicated.

Just been with two friends for the carvery lunch.We all had the turkey with stuffing and an amazing selection of fresh vegetables. Roasted and mashed potatoes, yorkshire pudding and gravy. Very good value. The staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. A pot of tea each. Super.

Visited earlier this year and food was excellent. So disappointed this visit really unpleasant cheese and onion pie that was more like egg soufflé texture with no flavour, hard undercooked chips and the cheese sauce was what I imagine wallpaper paste to taste like!! I left a lot and expressed my disappointment but didn’t receive any response other than I’ll let the kitchen know?? The two other meals of burger and sea bass were enjoyable fortunately. Will return for drinks but not food unfortunately as lovely refurbished venue and great outdoor areas.

The booking was easy but unfortunately the service was not , we ordered food which was not Right regarding choice, you seem to have to do everything apart from the washing up , our bill came to £90 , you don’t mind paying if you get waited on , but that must be the way things are done at The Royal George

We booked a table for 12 people and was given a 6.30 time slot. We had to wait quite a while for the waitress to take our orders and it wasn't very busy. I ordered the cheese and onion pie with chips and mushy peas but was told I could only have the veg that was on the carvery. I asked why the menu didn't say this and was told it was Sunday and it was carvery service and limited menu, and we would have been told this when making the booking. I and others weren't happy as to save time we had all checked the menu online to decide on what we wanted. When we eventually was told to go to the carvery, the chef said take 1 of the plates on the warmer, which both looked dry, and he said, "Help yourself to the veg." On looking at the veg, it was what was left over dry veg, no mash roast potatoes that looked like they had been there for hrs. I asked the chef if there was any mash he said yea there posting to dried up mash i said I'm not eating that he then went in the back and we was left waiting at least 5 mins while he went and got a tub of Nash which had been microwaved as it was steaming hot when he returned and dumped it onto of the dried out mash. I took a portion and a few other veg with gravy and returned to our table there was our of our party who was appalled at the food. I tried a little of the cheese and onion pie it was disgusting it was tasteless and the cheese was all congealed like the pie had been sat in a warmer for quite a while the veg was hard and inedible. We had only been eating for 5 mins when the waitress came over and apologised but said could she take any orders for desserts as the kitchen was getting ready to close. As we was all eating and only just started we all declined desserts as we felt rushed and 2 of us who had the cheese and onion pie was disgusted we informed the waitress of the food who just apologised and said it was end of service so it's what was left. One of our other guests had the cheeseburger, which came out with half a burger on the bun he sent it back, and the waitress brought out another cheeseburger. He was given 2 beef Burgers as an apology. I felt like as we was possibly the last customers, we were left to eat whatever was left over, and they wanted to close the kitchen for the day. I had my doubts about eating here in the first place as I had a bad experience many years ago but was told it had new owners and it had improved WOW we were wrong. We won't be returning to have a family meal here again anytime soon.

Visited for the first time for a Sunday carvery. We are two vegans, one with a peanut allergy. Staff went above and beyond to accommodate, to ensure we knew what was suitable for us to eat and to make us feel comfortable. Our main was freshly prepared separately for us, and I was given my own allergy friendly tongues to use for the vegetables. The chef was very friendly and helpful, and we were not made to feel an inconvenience in any way (which can sometimes happen with dietary requirements at other restaurants!). Will definitely visit again :)

We went in for food and a few beers after a long hike in the Peak District. All tired, we walked in looking forward to a beer and nice food. All was good until we met the manager, violent control freak. Poured me a shocking Guiness and was insulted when I asked for a new one. Kicked us all out and started to use physical force to get us out. Never attend this pub, terrible service.

Called for a drink here on our way home as we knew it was dog friendly and were really impressed and pleased with the warm welcome we received! The chap behind the bar was super friendly and great with the banter about the wine - even though they were incredibly busy we were still made to feel we weren't a hindrance at all. We had unfortunately had a late lunch elsewhere and I wish we hadn't as the menu sounded superb and the meals being delivered around us looked fantastic. We will most definitely be back and bringing others too - thanks very much for cheering us up on a very icy afternoon!

A carvery is a carvery, right? Well, maybe, but the Royal George cuts meat thicker than most, with excellent cauliflower cheese and all served with a smile. All drinks were served promptly and there was no overly-loud jukebox to stifle conversation.

Came here for a Christmas celebration with friends. Unfortunately, when we arrived, we were told our table had been cancelled, but not by me! Apparently there were 2 groups with the same name and they had cancelled the wrong one! This was dealt with brilliantly by the staff. It was very busy but they cleaned us a table immediately. It was in the bar area but, as I had originally booked the restaurant, we still had table service. Our food was lovely and the waitresses were great so we will definitely come back.

Booked on-line for a table for three at 2.30 pm for a late lunch. The pub was quiet as one might expect at that time on a Wednesday afternoon. There was, however a large party of people seated near what appeared to be a Carvery style buffet. The young lady who greeted us said they were not really serving ‘walk-ins’ as they were too busy. When we said we had booked she showed us to a table, said there would probably be a delay but went to check, presumably with the Manager. When she returned she said there would be a 20 minute wait before we could order food, so we ordered coffee and looked at the menus we had been given. Another family of four adults and a child arrived and were told something similar…….. We were then subjected to further confusing messages from the young lady and a gentleman we presumed was the Manager. We were told they could not take our food orders and the wait would now be at least an hour as the large party were just receiving their ‘mains’, then later changed to ‘starters’ and so on……… By this time a further 15 minutes had elapsed and no coffee had appeared, we decided to leave. It was clear that this pub/restaurant simply could not cope! We suggested to the Manager that he turned off the booking system until such time as he felt they were able to offer any kind of service. What a shame! We wanted to visit, post refurbishment and the pub looked superb! We moved onto another pub/restaurant and were followed by the other family too. We all had a very good experience at this other restaurant and must have spent in excess of £200 between us. We certainly won’t be going back to The Royal George as our experience does not appear to be unique looking at their reviews. Fortunately we have found that other pubs in Greenfield are more than welcoming.

The Sunday roast buffet at the Royal George has long been a favourite of my parents. Now they are 92 and 93 years old they are mostly housebound. The last time they were there was in July for their 70 wedding anniversary. So as a surprise as they couldn’t go to the buffet I arranged to collect food from the roast buffet to take to them. The staff could not have been kinder and actually provided me with plates and carefully wrapped everything including gravy for me. My parents were absolutely delighted and mum shed a tear when I told her how lovely all the staff were. Thank you to John, Dean and all the staff you made my parents day with your kindness and wonderful delicious food.

I like the way it was served. I choose want I wanted and the server plated it up for me.The meal was huge, I struggled to finish it.My two son`s had different, one had fish and chips the other a chicken piri piri burger.They also struggled to finish their dinner which is very unusual for them.Along with these meals we drink 5 pints of coke and 4 pints of lager....the bill came to just over £75.Amazing value for what we had.The staff were friendly and helpful, the atomsphere was lovely.I would recommended this pub and we will certainly been going again

A friend and I dined at the Royal George on 20 Feb. I had messy chips as a starter; the chips were massive and seemed more boiled than fried. The meat was nice and tender but the cheese topping was a thick soggy lid. I then had cheese and onion pie, chips and peas. The size of the portion of pie was like you would give to a young child; the plate was mainly filled with huge chips again, lots of which had black holes in them and looked as if worms had got at them. My friend had a curry platter which consisted of chicken tikka, naan bread, rice and two minute bhajis. The curry sauce seriously tasted like it had come from a can. I pointed out the small size of pie and was told no more was available and was offered a complimentary coffee. We felt rather uncomfortable afterwards and definitely won't be eating here again. This poor quality is a real shame as this pub had so much potential.

Called after reading a review in the M.E.N and fancied giving it a try, we are so glad we did, I had posh fish buttie which was amazing, wife had hot beef baguette both with all the usual trimmings, really good portions and good quality, friendly staff, can't comment on the ales because we had orange juice, but £20 all in for 2 people is great value, we will be back now we have tried it.

Impromptu Sunday lunch with my friend and an unexpected delight. I haven’t been to the Royal George for ages as I thought it has gone a little bit down hill but looking for a Sunday Lunch and I noticed that it was back in the hands of the brewery and the website reflected a new and improved venue. It was really worth the visit. The place has had a facelift; with new staff and a much improved wine list. It was a delightful afternoon. The staff were so professional and friendly and inviting and knew their products - which is so important. I am a pretentious wine snob - I know nothing if truth be told - but the lovely Jo Hughes let me sample a couple of reds and the Argentinian Malbec was the winner. Lucy was very professional and I mistook her for the manager !!The carvery was delicious. The meats were very tender and the selection of veg was appetising and fresh. I really wanted the gammon but I have an issue with ham and gravy. It’s wrong people!!! The Chef was so kind to offer me a separate dish for my cauliflower cheese - again that cannot be mixed with gravy!! All in all it was a great afternoon. Great food; great service and a really warm atmosphere. Go here for a Sunday lunch.

We visit this little gem every weekend for breakfast with my partner's parents.I must say I am always sceptical about buffet breakfasts, but this place have got it absolutely spot on! I can't get enough of it and always come out very full and satisfied every time! The pub does a good selection of drinks and the food menu is full of typical pub favourites.I would definitely recommend you give this place a try!The only downside is, it is run by scousers but you can't have everything! Lol (they're actually ok)

Was really disappointed with our meal here on 30th December as my early birthday meal from my in laws. We had a booking for late afternoon, so we were able to sit pretty quickly. Around 10-15 mins to take drink orders and we were told it’ll be 30 min wait on food, no worries! Order drinks, it was about an half hour before any drinks came (one pint and 3 soft drinks). Ordered food, but nearly every single vegetarian option was out. There were two options they weren’t out of, curry or veggie burger. I opted for the veggie burger. The waiting staff didn’t even really apologise or care that essentially nothing was available, but I didn’t want to fuss as it was a treat from my in laws. About 45 minutes later, the veggie burger arrived. I took one bite, it was honestly horrendous. It was so mushy and had absolutely no flavor. It tasted like raw falafel mix, to be honest. Luckily it came with a very healthy serving of fries so I stuck to those and ate the bread and salad from the burger. It just would’ve been nice if we were told when we arrived that everything was out instead of after we sat there for 30 minutes or if the waitress asked the kitchen if they could’ve whipped something else up. She noticed I didn’t eat the burger, but didn’t even ask about it. I get it was busy, but this is the time of year where everything is busy. I really felt the customer service was lacking and it could’ve easily made up for the lack of options, in my opinion.

Considering we as a family of 7 visited on new years day without a reservation, we were catered for very well. We were warned there was a waiting time of around 40 minutes for food, which was accurate. The staff kept us informed and were always polite. The food was piping hot and was very tasty.I expect we will be back.

Normally a good pub and ok food but Christmas eve my family of 10 booked for 6pm because we had young children. 7.20 we got two meals, 15mins later the rest of the meals which were atrocious. We again waited for deserts, nothing so we paid and left.What should have been a good start for Christmas, we left very deflated and disappointed.

Thank you to Derrek and the girls for looking after us!!

I come here quite often for a meal; I'm a widower and it beats cooking for myself. The atmosphee is very friendly and service is excellent. Food quality is good (I love their lasagne) and hot meals are always piping! I think their are reasonable.

Food was not nice, if you’re going to serve frozen pizzas maybe buy good frozen pizzas? Also should remove the pub sign across the road at the car park because it’s misleading that cars can park there when they aren’t allowed and end up with parking tickets.

Few things I'd like to say, the owner Callum knows his stuff about his Coffee and was very informative about the origins of the coffee, The other review that stated there is a 4.50 meal deal is a total fabrication by the way as I have been going to Soul Cafe for some time and there is no such deal nor has there ever been, also the paninis etc are not like the person in question said, they are quality and locally sourced. Quality Coffee Quality Food Quality Staff 10/10 Lads
