The Garden Room At The George

Oh my goodness. Visiting an iconic restaurant, the atmosphere was still good, but unfortunately it's just not the same as it used to be.

Although quite small and local, my recent visit to The George in Stamford was exceptional. I went with a friend for lunch and was extremely impressed.

I can't thank The George enough for a wonderful afternoon. I am looking forward to returning soon for their delicious afternoon tea.

Lunch with friends on a sunny Saturday, this place was packed, so book or arrive early! Food is excellent, although took a long time to arrive.

Second round of drinks again took 3 waiters to sort out and then the coffee was served with most of it in the saucer!!

Visiting the George has become an extremely expensive treat. £16 for a cheese and tomato sandwich and a small bottle of beer. I must say this time I found the staff and service acceptable.
