George's Lounge - Bars Near Me - Canton, Ohio

I had found George's Lounge in the maps app. After arriving there, completed unfamiliar with the area, I walked right past it with absolutely no intention of going in as it appeared to be a very rough bar scene. All I wanted was a burger. I went around the corner to a bar that looked pretty nice, but unfortunately they didn't serve food. I asked if he had any recommendations as it was already getting late in the evening. The first place he said was George's Lounge. He added that they had excellent burgers. I decided it was worth a try after all if the burgers were supposed to be that good. They actually turned out to be pretty good. There was also a live band from Bowling Green, Kentucky performing. It was a great atmosphere with a decent sized crowd all wrapped around the bar listening. The waitress was great as well and had excellent recommendations. read more

George's Lounge - Funky and fun! - Bars Near Me - Canton, Ohio

This is probably the worse place I have eaten. If not the worse,then one of the top 3. Since today was National Hamburger Day,we thought let's check around. Trip Advisor gave George's a high rating. There is the clue. The only way one could enjoy these awful,greasy,artery clogging,fish tasting burgers ; is if one were high or very drunk. How do you get mango to taste fishy? The battered pickle chips were over done and not cut in a uniform size. The battered onion rings were so greasy the grease spurted out of our mouths. The burgers? Never mind.....the burgers gushed grease down our arms and the only redeeming factor of the grease is this,my cuticles look manicured now. I used to work at George's way back when. I also have worked as a chef at some of the finest restaurants. The fried foods were overly fried. The sauteed mushrooms and mango tasted like fish. Not sure when the last time they changed the oil in the fryers. 40.00 for two burgers,pickle chips and 2 teas. I am not exaggerating when I say I am contemplating going to the hospital for food poisoning. What a huge disappointment. By the way we were the only customers there,the burgers were supposed to be medium. Outside was burnt around the burgers,inside was red and cold. The bartender was a nice young lady. Bar needs cleaned,as in deep cleaning. Dont waste your money,health or time. read more

This was the coolest little bar in downtown canton that we stumbled on accidentally. The staff was so nice and friendly. The patrons were also friendly. The jukebox was old school so that was fun, and the beer was cold. What more can you ask for from a bar?! Can't wait to visit again. read more

Don't come here. My friends and I have been going to George's for around a year. We would go 1-2 times a month and were very very loyal customers. Last night the bar tender decided to reject my friends out of state IDs (they are real and not fakes by the way and our waitress knows this because she had served us multiple times so many times that she knows our regular drinks and would ask us "do you want your regular" when we come in). We tried to protest and ask our waitress to advocate for us and she just freaked out and went and got her manager who was very condescending when she explained "we can actually refuse service to anyone". We used to love it here, but after this experience never going back. We were really disappointed in our waitress and the manager for the way they handled this because they proved that they don't care about loyal legal customers enough to take the time to blue light or scan their IDs to prove they're real. They just refused us service bc they could. They also charged us $10 for a $6 basket of fries, but we were so irritated by the way we were treated at that point we just paid and left. It was also my birthday, and this experience really ruined my night. If you want good service don't come here! read more

Terrific burgers, terrific service and handcut fries cooked perfectly! We like to order two sandwiches and then split them between the two of us so we can try a couple of different menu items. We ordered the John Wayne and the December burger of the month (don't remember what it was called) and asked them to cut them in half so we could each have a half. I know this is a little thing, but this is the first time a restaurant actually put 1/2 of each sandwich on each of our plates. Usually they will cut them in half but we have to do the shuffle between the plates. We were there on Saturday at lunchtime and were pleasantly surprised that they had live music. We live about an hour away, but we'll definitely make it a regular stop any time we're near Canton. read more

This was THE WORST bar experience of my life. I came to enjoy the music and some excentric young women rushed the stage and harassed the musician and the bartenders did NOTHING to stop the situation. It was a miserable experience I will never return and I hope you have the respect for Yourself to never give this establishment any revenue read more

Like a nice old neighborhood bar. Vintage movie posters, a juke box, overstuffed booth seats, warm lighting, and a huge bar. Like stepping back in time to the 60's. Great rotating selection of draught beers, as well as a nice stock of their regulars. Best burgers and fries in town. Burger Of the Month is a creation of genius. read more

Wondered in here after a visit to the football hall of fame. The sign on the door that no firearms were allowed inside was reassuring. We entered unarmed and ready for a bite to eat. The bartender was great. We had chicken and waffles that were delicious. They had good draft beer available. The kind of hole in the wall I enjoy. I'd go back again. read more

This is one of my favorite places, excellent IPA selection.... excellent liquor selection ....food is bomb...kinda a lil bar but I love it, been coming here for over a year and every one I bring in here gets hooked. I feel safe and there is a eclectic group of people always read more

Great service. Love the dive bar vibe. Interesting menu and drink selection. Alway a great assortment on the juke box.

Great place, great burgers, shakes, fries, sauces, and beer + cocktails. The service is good and they live music!

Was playing a show at Buzzbin down the street - walked over to George's to grab some grub. The burger on special was the 'Mac to the Future'. I'm sure you can get an idea of what that was like! Deliciousness! Great food menu and cheap drinks. I wish there was a George's in my city! read more

Ruby is awesome. I found myself in downtown Canton for my cousin's wedding in May 2015. My siblings, their significant others and I decided to bar crawl through this area with some local friends. As the night edged onwards we found ourselves in this little bar. It's not the fancy-smancy type but the food and service was tops. My sister in law got the slider trio and boy oh boy was it delicious.I cannot even recall what we got but the choices go on and on. You have to check them out and try the menu. I definitely can't wait to try and go back to get something even more awesome. No one left hungry, no one was unsatisfied and everyone had a great time. Can't say that of too many late night food joints. read more

Interesting burgers but done with average ingridients. I had a mac and cheese burger on Texas toast. It wasn't bad but it was clear it was the cheapest possible mac and cheese and toast possible. I think they would be well served to upgrade the quality to justify the prices because they have quite interesting concepts that I would be interested in trying if they were done well. read more

I will begin this review by stating that I liked George's. An old, throwback with a long, circular bar in the middle of this rather crowded space, some booths along one wall, and even a small, private room in the back. A small stage next to the front door allows for some live music. The staff was friendly and fun. A fantastic combination. I thought $6.00 for a 12 ounce craft draft was a bit high. But they do have cheaper stuff, so I can deal with that. I wanted to try the burger, as so many on Yelp have given them some high marks. I ordered the King George: blue cheese crumbles, jerk sauce, crisp bacon and sauteed mushrooms on an egg bun for $8.99. That also includes a generous portion of delicious hand-cut fries. I was there with six friends, four of which tried the burger. This group of friends and I have been traveling the area for the last five years searching for the perfect burger, regardless of cost, so we have some experience in evaluating them. We all agreed it was, well, average. Cooking it just a little bit too long caused it to come out slightly dry. Taste was mostly derived from the toppings. I even resorted to dipping my burger into the ketchup I use for the fries, something I almost never do. So, let's just call it what it is. Bar food. Yes, some pretty good bar food. But nothing I would make a special trip for. Note: everything is cooked in real lard, so vegetarians beware. read more

I'm a local and had heard about George's Lounge for years, but it was only within the last year I was told about their great food. Yes, the burgers and hand-cut fries are usually excellent; most times medium will be well-done but the meat is never dry, so I've always let it go. The beer menu is quite extensive, but skip the mixed drinks. I've found them to be weak with not much attention paid to the mix. Pass on the waffle sundae as well. Recently we ordered one on a splurge night and it was delivered to our table with the ice cream completely melted and missing the peanuts. When we commented on it to our waitress she said, "well... the waffle is hot and it melts the ice cream." Yea, I get that but doesn't that mean you should keep your ice cream colder or make sure it gets to the table in a more timely fashion? Which brings me to service; the seemingly hired for their alternative look female servers are friendly but VERY casual. Service is like when you're at a friend's home for dinner and everyone's stoned; a friend who's cheffing is in the kitchen, the high-as-hell host playing server, EVERYONE. You're happy. EVERYONE'S happy. You're in their vintage rec room grooving to fantastic music, got the munchies and are super hungry. Then you see your host smile and giggle as they walk away from you to either take a hot bath with a glass of wine or to do whatever strikes their fancy. You can smell the aroma of the fresh food, but you don't know if you will ever get it. I always enjoy my time at George's Lounge. I just wish I could eat and drink more to be able to listen to all my selections on the awesome jukebox.

Food was hot but found mystery balls in it service sucked looks dirty feels dirty and packed

This is the kind of place where Chicago Logan Square hipsters flock to gather and drink beer in a can. In Canton, a good find for lunch on a Saturday afternoon! - tasty and reasonably priced grass-fed beef burgers with a nice variety of gourmet toppings. The bar and decor are delightfully frozen in the year 1972 (dark wood paneling, vinyl seats, vintage posters). Good jukebox, friendly service, local and touring live music every Saturday night, some Fridays, and occasional Tuesdays starting around 9PM. Great spot in downtown Canton. read more

The food to me is overrated. I only tried this place once, but I won't go out of my way to visit again. The burger was ok. Not great. I got the special order of fries that was not good. The fries tasted old and cold. Overpriced with no quality to match. read more

First time here in years. I used to stop here in the 60's. The menu is quite unique and they have a large choice of drinks. I'm having the rockin chicken waffle sandwich with homemade chips. A maple cream shake to drink. If it taste as good as it sounds I'm in! read more

Really enjoyed the night in Canton, Ohio at this place. Awesome and creative food, good drinks, and a great staff. I had a Waffle Burger which was as tasty as it sounds. I also got some free peanuts and songs on the jukebox when I checked in there on Yelp. Overall, a definate if you are in Canton looking for some fun and good food. read more

So, I can only speak about my recent take out experience, just FYI. I ordered the blue ribbon burger, and it was outstanding! One of the best burgers I've had in quite a while! The fries were good but probably would be better eaten at the bar. But I would definitely have to get that one again. And I could eat that beer cheese on just about anything! read more

I've been here waiting for a side salad for over an hour and our server won't even look at me. I literally want to cry at this point. Just a side salad. We even asked about it and all he said was "it's coming" read more

OMG pretzel bites!!! I ordered them two nights in a row and could have gone back for more! I heard awesome things about the burgers, but didn't eat anything else. If you are into sauces, this place has a ton! I preferred the cheese, but the kamikaze (sp?) was good too. When we were there they had a beer fest type menu going on, and it was awesome having so many options. The mule of the month was really good too. The bar tenders were awesome (special shout out to Joe)! The only problem I could see is that the place is small, so seating can be an issue and live music can be super loud. read more

We had heard good things about this place. We went on a Wednesday evening and it was packed. Found a seat at the bar and waited about 20 minutes before someone noticed we had sat down. The couple next to use gave us suggestions on what they liked. We each ordered one of their burgers and we definitely impressed! The cost and food was great but the service wasn't. We will be back tho because the food was great. read more

Best burgers and brunch around! Staff is awesome as well! We love trying all the burgers of the month and all the drinks.

George's never fails to shine when it comes to great burgers and local craft beers. We split the three kings and sampled a few different IPA's and it was a perfect New Year's Eve. Enjoyed a little Karaoke to top it all off. Keep up the good work George! read more

It's burger night @ George's! Not only the best burgers, but on Wednesday they are only $5.

Best burgers in Canton. Everything is fresh and tasty. The atmosphere is definitely divey but the servers are so friendly and the food is amazing. My favorite is the treetop burger, and the milkshake of the month (it was maple cream when I was there) was divine. read more
