Service was ok, definitely not great but not terrible. The food was hot and tasty, I ordered the Steak Pie with mash. The beer was great, but full disclosure, I had Belgian beer here, nothing local.

The samosas were good but spicy. I really liked the hosin like sauce drizzled over them. We had one order of roast, planning a late lunch snack before dinner. We had gone to Burrough market but it was packed. To say the least, I'm glad we got one plate. the chicken. breast was huge. More than enough for two people. It was covered in a red curry gravy,slightly spicy. It came with roasted potatoes and broccoli, and a Yorkshire pudding. Plenty. We left a couple potatoes and broccoli on the plate. The cost was $46 US.

Okay, I do like this pub, but after my last experience, I have to let visitors know what happened…read moreto me and let you decide if you agree or disagree with me. This happened over two days. I had to use the gents loo and was in the cubicle doing what you do. Someone outside decided to throw water over the sort of wall, onto me. When I came out, I complained to the staff, they didn't seem to care, even though the bar is quite close to the door to the toilets. On another visit to the pub, I was just standing at the bar with my pint, when one of the female staff came over to me and started shouting at me, yelling that the staff know what they are doing and telling me to stop ordering them around, which I never did. I saw a message on Facebook about this pub, where a person said that he heard a staff member yelling at someone and was complaining that they were taking drugs in the gents. The day they said about this seemed to be too near to my experience.

The Food: I ordered the [Dish Name, e.g., Grilled Sea Bass]. It was cooked to perfection--moist on the inside with a crisp skin. The flavors were balanced, though the portion size was a bit smaller than expected for the price. The Service: The staff was attentive without being intrusive. You can tell they take pride in their work, which gives the place an authentic feel rather than a corporate, "robotic" vibe.

We were immediately sold. We lucked out on a table during a hopping Sunday and were able to snag the last couple plates of their Sunday Roast. The roast was fantastic! Make a reservation to not miss it. The bar offered a large lineup of beers, ales, wines, and cocktails. The bartenders were very personable and friendly even during a rush. They immediately noticed our American accents and chatted us up on where we were from, how we were liking London, etc. They were just overall very friendly and welcoming. It really made a difference on our day. I hopped around a number of pubs during our visit, but this one really stood out to us as a favorite. Swing by for a pint!

Before I go on, I have to thank the staff for allowing us to be seated because the restaurant was fully booked yet they managed to squeeze us in. That was so generous of them and we just want to acknowledge them. Ok. So, the portion was generous and beautifully plated. The steak was tender, rich, and slow-cooked to perfection, packed with deep, savory flavor from the ale. Every bite was hearty and comforting -- exactly what you want when you're in London. The gravy was silky and robust, perfect for dipping those thick-cut chips, which were golden on the outside and fluffy on the inside. It also came with fresh greens, roasted tomatoes, and crispy onion rings that added great texture and balance to the dish. You can tell this is proper pub food done right -- no shortcuts, just bold, satisfying flavor. If you're looking for a classic, filling English meal that absolutely delivers, this is it. I'd order it again in a heartbeat. Not a bad start to our first night in London. Bonus: They have a downstairs pub that stretches across 3-4 rooms so definitely grab yourself a pint after dinner. Really cool vibes!

Historic and unique as London's last remaining galleried inn from 1676, it's worth seeing--and…read moreeating at! Charles Dickens visited the site when it was a coffee house and it's mentioned in Little Dorrit. But the real reason to visit is for the food. Borough market, just across the road may offer a world of different foods, but The George Inn offers traditional British pub food at its best, in warm, historic rooms. This is your place if you're looking for authentic fish 'n chips--they're fresh, lightly battered and perfectly fried without being greasy. I also had the mac 'n cheese which used real vintage/sharp cheddar--and a lot of it--excellent! So you'll get good food while enjoying a historic inn where, for hundreds of years, travelers changed horses, got food, drink, and lodging before the railway era. IMPORTANT TIP: You order food at the bar--but you will need a table number. So you'll need someone in your party to sit at a table in the adjoining room. There'll be a brass plate with a number on it which you'll give when you order--so the food can be brought to your table.
