The George Inn

Guesthouse

Called in off the SWCP, had a couple of pints and a bite, excellent social distance measures in place, tribute on hand pull, really nice food and a great host.

We had a meal on Tuesday 10th March, the food was lovely, presented well and tasted great.
Tuesday is two meals for £12
But would go again on other days as definitely well worth the price.
The staff are really nice
Well worth looking at the menu as they have offers on other days
A big thumbs up to them.

My fiancée won a 3 course meal for two just before Xmas, so we went yesterday and had a lovely evening really enjoyed the food and had great service, just want to say thank you very much George Inn.

I had breakfast at The George Inn this morning and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough! The food was very tasty, well presented and it was reasonably priced! The staff were very friendly, very chatty, they had great attention to detail with everything, the staff are very attentive anything you ask them they give you and they go above and beyond there duties to make your visit as comfortable as possible! The portion size was just right not to big and not to small and I was particularly impressed with how the food was on a slate and it made it look like you were certainly getting your value for your money! Great pub, great food I would 100% go again! They are also very welcoming to dogs and offer a bowl of water to them. This is certainly the place to be!

Fabulous burgers, their Buy One Get One Free on a Thursday is a must!

Had a 2 4 1 burger meal here tonight. It was beautifully presented on a slate and skin on fries in a mini chip basket. Tasted so good @ £8.75 for 2! Definitely be back.

Took my wife, daughter, son in law and grandson for a meal today.
We took advantage of a weekday 3 course special, the food was great.
The service was quick and friendly, nothing was too much trouble.
High chair and nappy changing facilities.
The pub was clean and had a great atmosphere.
We will definitely be back.

Fabulous food and fantastic staff also made our dog feel very welcome.

Friendly helpful staff. Nice room which was lovely and clean. Great breakfast with a good range of options. Loved the was reduced waste with filtered rather than bottled water, tea bags in a jar rather than single serving packets and toiletries in dispensers.

Wow, what a nice surprise, I was expecting a standard pub curry, I was given the best curry I've had in a long time. Go there if you like curry. The staff and management were really happy and friendly, and the Blonde Ambition is a good Ale. Nigel.

Rather expensive 4 what it we had, ie lunch. Ordered a baguette each, which was nice, but got crisps instead of chips. Service friendly tho.

Dropped in for a pint tonight. Wish I had gone elsewhere. Only choice of two ales. Asked for a pint from one of them. It was more froth than beer and was dumped in front of me. No conversation from the batman who just took my proffered £5 and returned my change again without comment. I waited but then had to ask for my froth to be topped up. Begrudgingly taken and topped up frothier. Not a good experience and not for the first time.

Wonderful rooms. Everything clean and at the right place. Breakfast very well done. It’s been perfect.

Lovely food. Saag paneer was lacking in chunks of paneer. Some mix-ups/delays with order but put right in the end.

Be aware that the 'all you can eat' for 9.99 on Sunday is not. It's a rip off. A limited menu, which is to be expected — choice of two starters, choice of two main (chicken korma or Madras) plus a (good) Nan bread. Ask for any more (from your choice), you can't have it, portion sizes are small. I eventually got another two small onion bhajis (my starter) with no side salad, which was added to the bill, full price. I queried my bill, And was told they thought it odd too. But no change was made to my bill.

Lovely place, clean tidy friendly staff. Really nice food would recommend staying there.

Would definatly recommend! Lovely atmosphere and great staff! Very nice and clean room with a very comfy and cosy bed, and to top it off a good breakfast in the morning. Only one slightly negative point was that the breakfast time started at 8am which I would have preferred an earlier time as I had to be up and out for work early.

Staff were friendly and the pub was very dog friendly. Decent selection of drinks although the thatchers didn't taste too good (not bad enough to kick up a fuss about). Nice atmosphere and environment.

Tried the new 'indian menu' on 27/12/17. Shambolic. Had to ask for cutlery, plates ourselves. Food was mosty cold, took 90 mins to be served. Didn't get all the dishes we ordered. Friend ordered a veggie dish, had chicken in. Need I say anymore. No apologies from staff. Ruined our night.

As a local I was very unimpressed because the food took one hour and twenty minutes to come. The staff weren’t the greatest either! The food came, we left and got home to find no rice. So after looking forward to one of Brauntons finest Indians apparently. Then went back to get the rice that was missed we were disappointed and unappetised. When we notified them of the missing rice it nearly took 30 mins from walking in to getting the rice and walking out. We got a newer sorry just as we left because the bar staff were too busy socialising. We got home (max 2 minutes away) to cold curry and to open the rice to find it was stuck together in lumps and over cooked. So after wanting Indian 2 hrs later I ended up not wanting it. I will never return to the George and never will recommend it to have a bland curry hard rice and a burnt naan bread however the Royal Bengal always take 15 minutes to serve there and their friendly and I have never had an issue! Seriously not impressed; once a hole always a hole!

I was in the George Inn and indeed without greed I can say it made my day. A drink that did not stink, a meal that was real and staff that were a laugh. Yarf!

We stayed for just one night room was lovely and comfy. The only bad points about the room I would say was that the water was kept on the shelf up above the toilet with the glasses lip face down, which I felt wasn't very hygienic. Also the coffee was in a jar so who knowa how many people have had that before. Otherwise lovely stay and would recommend.

On first arrival it's a lovely pub in a nice village decore is nice and fairly clean. BUT the place is over run with druggies they are queuing to get into the toilet cubicle and all you can hear is snorting. My advice stay away.

Good location, very good reasonably priced food. Well furnished and good back ground music.

Not local to the area, popped in for a quick drink and was appalled. Served by THE most MISERABLE and unfriendly man who thrust our drinks on the bar. We ordered a pint which happened to be the end of the barrel and after it was changed he just threw the new half on top of the old end of the barrel. We were then charged £10 (ish) for a pint and a 125ml glass of wine! When this was queried the miserable git threw the receipt on the bar with not a word then walked off. Terrible place, would advise anyone to avoid at all costs.

REA the landlady is fab, goes out of her way for you. Service is great. Food so tasty using local produce. Does a huge amount for charity and the community too.

Service slow and food was terrible. Would not go back. Also fairly expensive.

Had the cod. Very good, plus salmon and trout starter.

Disgusting that The George car park has an automatic number plate reader. Parked there at 6:30 in the evening and it cost me £61.80 (that was even the early payment! ). Just moved to the area, certainly won't be receiving my custom!

Nice clean rooms, helpful staff and good food definitely recommend.

Prefered it before the refurb.

We found the George to ideally suit our needs for a short stay in North Devon. It a cosy small hotel with clean comfortable rooms. It has the added advantage of a real pub bar, and a restaurant which serves an excellent breakfast and has a good dinner menu. What made our stay more memorable was the friendly and very helpful host Reena for whom nothing was too much trouble. John and Madeleine, Australia.

Beautiful pub, great service and the best food we have eaten out in a long time! The little extra touches, like the way the drinks were served (eg. Juniper berries in the gin and tonic), made it a wonderful evening out for us.
We returned for breakfast a couple of days later and the food and service were equally as good as our previous visit.

Lovely Customer Service by the two young ladies that were on duty Sunday Lunch Time we decided that we would have a Sunday Roast well all I can say is that we both loved the meal I had beef and my other half chicken it was both tasty and great value for money would recommend it to anyone that ever finds themselves in the area.

Little disappointed with our stay, due to the hot weather, can we advise a ceiling fan to be put into the room. If we open the windows, too much noise from traffic. And with SQ alarm system across the road going off both nights of our stay, we didn't get much sleep. Bathroom and room delightful, as were the staff. The only other problem was the Tuesday Night Steak Meal, which was advertised as a Steak Chips and Salad, steak was beautiful as so was the sauce, although had to wait for the sauce, the chips seemed to be the end of the frozen packet, which were all of the bits and were very very dry. Advertised salad was dried up rocket only, no cucumber or onions or tomatoes. Ordered onion rings which we were charged for, but didn't arrive, which we had to ask for our money back. Just a few problems, but thought we had to bring it to your attention. Still enjoyed our stay. Steve and Heather.

Visited late on Sunday afternoon after a long walk. The food was delicious and service excellent. It's unusual to find such a good choice of fresh, seasonal dishes. We ordered a mix of Sunday lunch, ciabattas, salads, pasta of the day and deserts and everyone loved it. The dog was also welcome in the bar. I plan to return but next time will book into the rooms too which looked great.
