About This Pub

Ah, the George & Dragon – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem, tucked away in Wentworth. From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, most folks rave about the food; imagine tucking into a perfectly done roast or a sizzling pizza that hits the spot every time. The staff really add to the charm, being so attentive and making sure you're looked after from the moment you walk in – it's that kind of place where you can rock up without a booking and still get a warm reception. Prices are fair too, so you get a lot for your money without feeling short-changed. On the flip side, though, there was this one tale of woe about a lorry blocking the exit, which sounds like it turned a simple visit into a frustrating ordeal, especially with little ones in tow – not ideal on a hot day. And honestly, their website doesn't do them many favours; it's a bit basic and doesn't give you the lowdown you'd hope for. Overall, it's a spot I'd recommend for a good night out, as long as you keep an eye out for those occasional blips, because the positives far outweigh the negatives for a proper pub experience.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The food here is absolutely spot on – from hearty roasts and juicy steaks to delicious pizzas and burgers, it's all cooked to perfection and leaves you wanting more.
  • The staff are a real delight; they're friendly, welcoming, and quick to make you feel at home, whether you're popping in for a meal or just a pint.
  • It's great value for money, with reasonable prices that won't break the bank, especially for the generous portions and quality you get.
  • They're accommodating for walk-ins, which is brilliant if you're out and about and fancy a spontaneous stop for some grub.
Cons
  • There was that one dodgy experience with parking – someone blocked the exit with a lorry, and it turned into a right hassle, which could spoil an otherwise nice visit.
  • The website's a bit of a letdown; it's not very informative and seems more like a generic hosting page, so you might not get much help planning your trip online.

I would give no stars if I could. Beyond poor service and inconsiderate. Parked an artic lorry at the only exit in 21c heat. I had a baby in the car and the driver refused to move it. I was informed i would have to wait 30 mins to leave. I was asked to see the manager who had the same poor customer service skills. Absolutely disgusting service and morals of a business. I will also writing a formal complaint to health and safety standards due to having no emergency from the car park as the lorry is blocking it.

Had a lovely meal here. Walked in without booking early Saturday evening and was immediately accommodated. Staff were friendly and welcoming. I had the chicken in soy, ginger and honey which came out on a sizzler plate and was absolutely delicious. My partner had the crispy pork belly and although it wasnt as crispy as expected, it still melted in the mouth and he loved it. We have both said that we need to come back again to try more of the menu!
