Had the most surreal experience dealing with this very average pub/b&b. We’d booked 3 rooms for family because absolutely everywhere else in Melford was booked out. All 3 of us got calls beforehand saying we’d booked the “wrong rooms” and needed to upgrade and therefore pay more. More than a coincidence I’d suggest… Long story short on arrival each one of us queried this and ended up having stand up arguments with the extremely rude man on reception, where he accused us of basically being stupid and not knowing how to use a booking system properly. When pointed out that perhaps it was their booking system that was stupid, he told us it was all perfectly clear that “children” meant “under 2’s...
What makes this a lovely place to stay in, is the staff. Everyone is really keen to please and help out wherever possible. The hotel itself is a little 'tired ' but great efforts are being made by Tyler (the manger) to improve things and make the hotel an even nicer place to stay in. I 'd classify it as 'work in progress ' but I 'm sure, given time, it will be amazing. The rooms are comfortable and functional. The bar is well stocked with good selection of wines, spirits, beers and ciders. The food is great, if a tad expensive but it is always cooked to perfection and well presented by keen staff. The chefs always do their best to accommodate special requests or requirements. The Greek Night...
Pop in for a drink made very unwell absolutely scared we wanted food place was empty but had to wait for a drink this happen three times because the bar staff were pissing around talking left with out no food shame on you Easter Sunday should be your money making time needs sorting out used to be a nice clean place really gone down hill
Staying in Long Medford for a couple of nights and popped in here for a drink. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Discovered that the next night was Greek night at the pub, as the owners are Greek Cypriots we thought we’d give it a try. We weren’t disappointed , great food and good Greek Wine. Highly recommend it.

Came here with my significant other for 2 nights. We served breakfast in the garden in the back just the two of us and I must say it was a pleasant morning with coffe, toast&jam. Sid, the owner is a lovely friendly woman, it was a pleasure meeting you! Will definitely come back, hopefully for the Greek Night.
Filthy. Bugs and dirt everywhere. Beautiful old building just needs a thorough clean. The chef needs to clean his uniform too as we saw him outside smoking and he was filthy, only 11am so can’t say he’s been cooking all day!! Awful.
Just been to the George for the first time since the new carvery menu was launched and have to say it’s a 100% improvement. Very very good value for money and recommend it for a lovely Sunday lunch!
It was amazing good food. Staff were very good and very helpful..considering never booked let us sit near the fire until the table was ready. 100% to all the staff.

Lovely pub garden. Good food reasonably priced. Sadly, it was let down by the grumpy chap behind the bar I would suggest a course in customer service skills!
The roast was the worst roast dinner I have ever eaten. Veg were rock hard. Meat was so thin and cold. For 15 pound a head. I was so disappointed.
