About This Pub
Oh, the George Inn in Bathampton is one of those places that just hits the spot for a proper pub outing with mates. I have to say, the staff really stand out – they're so polite and on point, like that Welsh server mentioned in the reviews, making sure everything runs smoothly without being over the top. The food's another winner; you've got classic dishes and seasonal specials that are packed with flavour and come in massive portions, so you won't leave hungry, and it's all at a fair price too. Perching in the beer garden by the canal is an absolute treat on a sunny day, or even when it's a bit nippy, the cosy interior feels like a warm hug. On the downside, it does fill up quickly, so popping in without a reservation might mean a wait, and if you're based in Bath proper, it's a short drive out, which isn't ideal for everyone. All in all, it's a solid choice for anyone after good food, great company, and that authentic pub feel – I'd definitely recommend giving it a go for a relaxed meal or a cheeky drink.

Nice place to have lunch. Easy access from the channel. The food was good ! You should maybe make a reservation as it seems a lot of people do so.
Very chilled atmosphere. A lovely Welsh lad, Tristan, was our server and was so polite and attentive. The portion sizes are huge! I had 2 starters (chicken strips and garlic mushrooms with sourdough) instead of a main, and was blown away at the size of them. My fella had a classic mixed grill which he says was divine - real quality meat.
Loved it here, highly recommend 👌
A lovely building in an historic setting. Great food with lovely & friendly STAFF.
Two outside sitting areas. Massive car park. All set besides the glorious Kennet and Avon Canal.
Great welcome and the service first class even though there was only two members of staff front of house.
The food was top quality and presented well
also great value for money
will be visiting more often from now on
Three of us arrived for Friday evening supper. Young but very attentive serving staff, who looked after us beautifully. We started with the sharers board with a side of the crispy chicken. This was followed by a signature burger which was well cooked, good onion rings and crispy chips. We also had the fish and chips, we decided to have the extra bread and butter and scampi, we probably wouldnt do that again. The fish was tasty and well cooked. The final meal was the smothered chicken. This was rather over cooked and dry but a good flavour. I probably just had bad luck. The pub is welcoming and you are always comfortable there. It suits all ages, the parking is good the location is amazing. I would certainly recommend it.
