We perform checks on reviews.
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.

We were visiting a friend in a nearby hospital and come lunchtime needed a place to eat - the choice was eat street in the local shops or the George. What a fortuitous thing, we chose the George and had a great Pub Lunch.
The Battered Barramundi, chips and salad was a good choice - it came with crispy batter, generous salad and chips to die for!!
Certainly we had not expecrted a lotfrom reading previous reviews, but i can assure you this was one of the best pub lunches we have had for some time.

First time that I have visited this Tavern, the food was nice and generous portion size, reasonably priced as well. The staff were very friendly and the meals were bought out quite quickly.only downside was that there were on 2 choices for dessert, so we went elsewhere for that

We stopped in to try this pub out for the first time.
The food was average pub food.
The incorrect pasta meal came out and when taking the full meal back to the kitchen 1 minute later 2 different wait staff blamed me for ordering the wrong meal. I simply requested to have the correct pasta brought out however they repeatedly told me I ordered the wrong pasta and I would have to pay the difference. I paid the difference as this wasn’t an issue. Not the best experience.

I've been several times and food is usually great. Steak night however was pretty low quality steak, tough and unenjoyable. The cut very low grade and chewy. The service was good with the young man serving us.

Wow First time visit
How great is this place shopping and wonderful food and beer.
We had lunch cheese burger and Caesar salad with grilled chicken
Prosciutto in place of bacon and a real poached
Bloody brilliant
Beers are extra cold and go down extra great.

We would like to thank Shannon and the fabulous team at the George Tavern for making the event to honour our father memorable and stress free. The catering and service provided could not be faulted.

Be Warned do not go here for a meal!!
Food very ordinary
Sauces like water
You only get 1 hr 15 mins seating to arrive order and eat!!!!!! They rudely come and say you have 5 mins left. It is definitely not a place to go to for a relaxed meal just stuff what you can in in the the time that is left once the meal arrives. THERE ARE PLENTY OTHER PLACES

I hadn’t been to this pub for about 12 years, i was very impressed with the venue and bar staff, the beer was very cold and clean tasting, the menu has a large variety great meals to choose from, plenty of room for the whole family.

Tough as boot leather steak sandwich.... could barely even cut it with a steak knife...
Snitzel was small and undercooked. 🙄
And my kids had cheeseburger which they wouldn’t even eat And they eat pretty much everything!!!!
Not sure what’s going on in that kitchen, but I will
Not Be coming back again.
It may have been lunch time, and these were lunch specials... but you have a lot of competition.. 👋

Went mid week just for an easy dinner. My medium steak was unfortunately grey and tough. My wife had chicken which was very dry. We have been twice before and meals were fine maybe this time we just caught them on an off night.
Either way we will try some other places.

My family and I had dinner in the bistro on 12/11/19. Whilst the food was quite enjoyable, the location of our table was not. Do not sit at table no 3 if you want to be able to enjoy your food. All you can taste is cigarette smoke wafting from the smoking area. Even my 4 year old grandson asked why his food tasted like smoke. Not a pleasant experience
