George Bromley

Unbelievable Roasts, Cosy Ambience, Friendly Staff!

Stepping into The George feels like being enveloped in a warm embrace, an experience akin to a fine vintage—you can never quite pin down whether it’s the ambiance or the attentive staff that makes your visit. It's apparent they've mastered the art of multitasking, as Bethany and Sarah have been praised frequently for their service, managing even the busiest of shifts with grace and a smile as wide as a Yorkshire pudding. The interior boasts charming decor that walks the delicate line between quaint pub and chic restaurant, complete with jaw-droppingly aromatic lilies in the ladies’ room—a nod to luxury amidst the hustle and bustle.

The culinary offerings lean heavily into comfort, with the Sunday roast emerging as a consistent favorite among patrons, topped off with generous servings of gravy to keep one content. Yet, it's not just about how much goes onto the plate but rather how swiftly it arrives, usually served alongside Elsa's infectious optimism. Certainly, a hint of student-era canteen havoc with the ’Dirty Burger’ makes its sporadic appearance, bravely juxtaposed against a chocolate bomb dessert that reigns supreme. Whether cradling a pint in the sunlit beer garden, absorbing the laid-back vibes, or inhaling Camembert indoors, The George presents itself as a delightful sphere of geniality—a local gastro-pub where haste meets hospitality, creating memories more polished than a brass tap. — Penelope Savory
