Strongers . left this review about George & Dragon

The George & Dragon is a large L-shaped Greene King pub with a central L-shaped serving counter that supports standard keg alongside Peroni and Madri as well as four hand pumps that were drawing their Scrum Down, IPA and Old Speckled Hen alongside Lilley’s Mango that was ‘coming soon’. High tables are found around the counter and some raised seating is situated in the central corner with standard seating up one side and a pool table the other. Citeh were playing in a Champions League match on the televisions throughout so it was busy during my recent Tuesday evening visit, but I was served promptly by a polite member of staff. This isn’t somewhere I’d make a special trip to revisit, but it’s perfectly acceptable as somewhere to watch the match.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about George & Dragon

Fine-looking Greene King pub in a prominent position on the crossroads, with plenty of interesting detailing on both facades. The multi-room interior has been remodelled and refurbished over the years, but the more traditional wood-panelled seating area to the left of the bar remains a feature. Apart from that, this appears to be a thriving local, offering food (from a standard menu) but also retaining a pool table, etc. Disappointingly, though, just Yardbird (£4.25) available from the five handpumps on a Friday evening, although reversed clips for IPA, Old Speckled Hen, Old Golden Hen and a guest Tribute were visible.

Real Ale Ray left this review about George & Dragon

A handsome looking building that was purposely built for Clarkes Reddish Brewery back in the day. This is now a GK pub and I found the interior to be adequate, but nothing to write home about. It was quite featureless internally with the bar and lounge area being one large space, with a side room, where a group of teenagers were salivating watching one of their pals having a mixed grill. Five handpumps with disappointingly, only two on and it was Saturday evening. The choice was GK IPA or Robinsons Dizzy Blonde.
