Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Chose to return for a Valentines meal after a great one last year and a rennet successful visit. A great choice on the menu, a change from the usual options so we went for duck and steak - both wonderful. Nice touches like a free...Prosecco on arrival, as neither of us really drink we gave this a miss, the tables were decorated and a red rose on each place setting was appreciated. Staff as always very attentive and pleasant . Will definitely be back .More

Myself, son and 2 grandsons (who are adults) decided on lunch here. We were not disappointed, of course as I was driving, the guys hit the cocktails, and we decided to have 3 starters to share. Our main meals were delicious. Son had the mixed...grill, both grandsons decided on burgers, one with BBQ and the other plain but both with bacon, I had the Hunters Chicken. Clean plates and too stuffed to have desserts. Can highly recommend the Royal George, have been here several times and never a bad meal. Thank you to Imogen and Nancy for looking after us. Can’t wait to visit again in due course.More

Took advantage of cheaper prices in January, to have lunch out. Chose Fish and Chips and received superb meal - good quality and taste and thick hand cooked chips. Well impressed. Easy meal to get wrong, but superb when right, as this was!

Me and a friend had an excellent meal here last night. The food was delicious, all pre-ordered from their festive menu. Our table was waiting for us, a lovely spot by the fire, complete with place settings and crackers. The food came out quickly and...service was excellent, very attentive with table checks. Such a lovely pub and great to see it busy on a Monday! Great atmosphere.More

So disappointed with this Inn which fell well short of what we would expect for an evening meal. The food all tasted bland, there was no depth of flavour to anything we ate. The sauces were weak and watery, the food did not match the...description on the menu. Very basic food when so much more was promised; all very uninspiring.More

We popped into the Royal George in Thornbury for a Sunday roast and we were extremely pleased with the whole experience. We were greeted and felt welcome as soon as we arrived, we had great seating in a bay window, the girls behind the bar...were attentive , polite and enthusiastic.
