    If I wasn't going to award the Old Bell five stars anyway, I'd have given it an extra one for not…read morecalling itself 'Ye Olde Bell' But, it certainly merits the title 'Old', for parts of it date from the 14th Century. It's a lovely, flower-decked half-timbered building, with which my guests from overseas were delighted. The interior is in keeping, too, and everyone enthused about the reasonably priced roast chicken. Not me, though I had the 'Pork Pie Ploughman's', for I don't like a heavy meal in the middle of the day. And, being something of a connoisseur of pies, this was as good as the product of Melton Mowbray although they're not allowed to call it such these days, for 'Melton Mowbray' is now a PDO. I can't speak for the beer, for it was my turn to drive. The others pronounced it satisfactory, though.

    Let me start by saying that I went in because the building was from the 14th century. I took a…read morepicture on the outside and thought I had to have a beer given the historical setting. When I got inside I was disappointed because immediately you see a "slot machine" (one of those gambling machines you have in English pubs). I have nothing against them but given the history of the place, I think the owner would be better off making sure the place has a historic feel. As for the beer, they had only one cask ale (again disappointed) with all the other beers being the usual (Guiness, Heineken, etc); definitely not what I expected.

    I hold the hotel attached to this restaurant in very high regard, but my opinion of The George…read morerestaurant is somewhat lower. We've sampled the dinner and the breakfast here and neither was memorable. At dinner, we had a slightly stringy ribeye that the kitchen would only offer done medium, and a nice spatchcock chicken in a pleasant tarragon sauce. The affogato we shared for dessert wasn't bad at all but the advertised cardamom ice cream didn't really taste of spice. It might be that flavoured ice cream in an affogato is a bad idea from the get, given that you're going to pour espresso over the thing -- it'd have to be marmite flavoured for any of that taste to get through. Breakfast the next morning featured a disappointing eggs benedict whose yolks were as well-cooked as the previous night's steak. The coffee to wash it down with was anemic -- though we learned that decent coffee is pretty rare in Rye generally, aside from strong stuff at The Apothecary down the high street. I don't want to be too down on The George. I adore the hotel, the staff are lovely, and menu incidentals like chips and sauces are all top-notch. But the quality of the hotel leaves one expecting the restaurant to hit a higher standard.
