    We went to the George for Mother’s Day lunch. We loved the atmosphere and the food was really tasty. We would like to go back to try some more dishes. Everyone liked the Sunday roast. It was really delicious. We had nice relaxing time and we cannot praise the staff enough.

    We always look forward to some drinks and a meal with friends at the George. It’s a warm & welcoming atmosphere away from those dreary winter nights. We had a superb meal and were very well looked after by the staff last night . Thank you Beth and all the staff who looked after us so well .

    No real welcome. Coats not taken. Conservatory was stark and echoed. Food service was quick and efficient but not very friendly or engaging. Actual food quality was only average with tough beef and fatty pork belly that was basically inedible. At least they took the pork off the bill. Desserts were good.

    Delicious cod main courses for two of us but had to send back a hamburger ordered by the third member of the party who asked for very rare but the hamburger was dry and over cooked. The cost was removed from the bill. Excellent poire william tarts but the sorbet was fresh out of the freezer and too hard. The glasses of sauvignon blanc were not very good. A glass of tuscan red was good. The waiter tried hard but was clearly inexperienced. Middle of the week, not many people in the restaurant, Quite expensive. Possibly better lunch options in Yarmouth

    A nice cosy bar and a lovely dining room with great view over the garden and the west Solent. Friendly service and delicious fish dishes. The limited wine list is good but, like everywhere, even vin ordinaire is expensive. Altogether a lovely place for lunch.

    Really disappointed to be told we couldn't eat outside even though it was a glorious day and I had been given the choice to select an inside or outside table when booking. Everyone in the restaurant wanted to eat outside and yet the deputy manager stubbornly refused to accommodate customers wishes. When the food arrived, we were dismayed to see that two of the main course meals costing between £22-26 each were at best starter sized. If you are going to charge £26 for a main meal I expect to be full afterwards. Either make your portions bigger or reduce your prices. One of our children's meals was forgotten and we had to wait another 15 minutes for it to arrive after everyone else's food had. Overall a disappointing experience despite the amazing venue and setting.

    Food was lukewarm - 3 cod dishes at £40 per person and no vegetable . Probably a good piece of fish which was literally cool . Service good but very long waits , totally understaffed . Waiter good when we saw him which was very sporadically . Waitresses just not in evidence except when they plonked down our food in a hurried manner . No charm whatsoever . Very overpriced given temperature of food , lack of vegetable ( except as a side dish ) and very meagre service . Very limited menus and way overpriced .

    We went to celebrate our brothers Birthday. The hotel is situated with a glorious view , our server was delightful and charming. The food was Fine. It was a few days ago and I can’t remember anything any of us got - not stand out type of combinations or flavors clearly, but we did enjoy it. We do come back when coming through Yarmouth - consistently enjoyable
