The George & Dragon is about the nicest pub you'll ever enter, right on the Thames with a terrace outside overlooking the water. It has a really nicely refurbished interior, and the menu is very gastropub-y, with some complex dishes mixed with traditional favorites.
The Peroni beer fish and chips was really super, with a great zing and bite to the batter. The classic burger was...a burger. One of our party truly savored the baked cod with mash and cream and shrimp sauce, while the kids downed cheese pizzas without much delay or conversation. The desserts were functional rather than spectacular or diverting, but tasty all the same: ice cream sundaes for the normal and sticky toffee pudding for the sweet-toothed.
The service was good but had one flaw; nut allergies were noted but ignored when biscotti with almonds arrived with our coffees. Disaster averted, we thoroughly enjoyed the meal, and the staff were very accommodating otherwise.
We'd definitely return. It's a lovely spot for a bite to eat or pint to sup. read more
