"We came here last night for a friends birthday and we were impressed with the food. We had the Kiev and cottage pie which was homemade and tasted lovely. Our starters were mackerel pate and soup and again these were lovely. It’s pub grub but made well. Service for drinks was a bit slow but the staff were friendly."

The reason this isn't one star is Shona the waitress who deserves better than this graveyard of a restaurant. Food was absolutely the lowest quality stuff I've ever encountered. We ordered steaks that were fatty, tough and terribly cooked (not seasoned, cooked at too low a temperature) the ploughman's sharer is basically stuff from Tesco's warmed up and served with the cheapest sort of bread. We'd have brought it up but frankly it's clear your chef can't do better so what's the point. Oh, we ordered pulled pork that wasn't. I suspect it was leftovers. Not sure the chef knows what pulled pork is. Another thing while we're at it, the other guy who bought our wine didn't even bother to open it....
Overall a good visit to The George. We were in Lichfield for a concert at the cathedral. Even though we live locally, my wife booked us in for an overnight stay with breakfast the following morning. We had dinner before the concert, and initially we were despondent when the waitress told us there were several items on the menu that were unavailable. However, the choices we made sausage and mash lamb hotpot) were very nice, so no complaints. Self serve breakfast the day after was very good with plenty of choice of continental and cooked. We have been to The George many times over the years, usually for a glass of wine after a mooch round town, and it’s always a pleasant experience. This time...
We visited for dinner 17.02.24 What a lovely meal we enjoyed. The food was delicious, it was presented well, served hot and tasted divine. We could tell the ingredients were fresh and of good quality. Special thanks to our waitress Lilly, who was polite, friendly and made us feel very welcome. She took our orders and our requests, nothing was too much trouble. She was attentive to our table ensuring we were served and cleared after each course at just the right time. Thank you all, we will be back again soon.
Booked for Sunday carvery at 2pm, probably too late as the salad starter buffet was a diminished tired looking mess, although we were offered soup. The carvery was still very fresh and enjoyable. There were plenty of staff on but they ignored us most of the time.We could not get any ones attention for the bill, so decided to attract their attention by walking out, this did work.This was our third visit this year, but decided we wouldn't go back again.
