Popped in for lunch with my son. Good value food and the staff friendly and helpful. Great, see you again
We have eaten there, once for breakfast and the second time for an evening meal. Both were quickly served being excellent and plentiful. It should be noted that this premises is under new ownership as of August 2025 but I am impressed with the wide range of beers and ciders together with a good range of real ales. This has now become my local.
My partner, myself and our 2 dogs have just spent 3 fabulous nights at Millingbrook lodge and without doubt this is one of the nicest places we have ever stayed in recent years. The rooms are spacious and maintained to a very high standard. The staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming and the pub is well stocked, with a lovely menu and a great range of beers and wines. We cannot recommend this place enough - whether as a stop-over , or for exploring the beautiful surrounding forest and countryside.
This is a lovely place to stay. They made us feel so welcome. The staff are friendly as are the locals. The rooms are clean and well equipped with tea, coffee, kettle, hairdryer and even a fan. They are checking in to see if you need top ups on anything and always around. The pub being opposite is where we had our breakfast which was amazing. Full English, toast, cereal and lots of coffee. The pub also does meals if you wish to stay on site. There is also a good size car park too though it shares with the pub. Plus dog friendly. The only downside for me personally was there was only one vegetarian option of pasta on the pub menu. This is a wonderful place to stay. We had a lovely time here, chatting with the locals and I would happily recommend it.
Booked lunch for a party of 8 and had various different meals - 4 of the very tasty home made pies ( including the vegetarian option) a vegetarian Thai curry, scampi and jacket potatoes. Everyone enjoyed their meal - plenty of food, well presented and a very friendly welcome. Lovely real fire too and no rush to leave. We will be back
Unexpected guests meant we were looking for a late afternoon Sunday lunch….. and The George did not disappoint, carvery until 5.30pm, the food was awesome, plentiful, with the service being second to none especially ‘Stu’ the young lad who was having his first taster of waiting tables, and managing customers expectations, a few more sessions and he’ll have them eating out of his hands. I have to say we will definitely be back.
