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

Still looks fairly basic from the road, so the refurbished interior may come as a bit of a surprise. The layout has been opened out to give a reasonable amount of space which includes two pool tables in a long weatherboarded extension. Lots of television screens for the sports fans, and a beer garden out back. The number of handpumps has reduced again since my last visit five years ago, now with three on different parts of the L-shaped counter offering the obligatory Harvey's and a more local pair from Tonbridge: Traditional (£4.20) and Golden Rule available on this visit. Gives the impression of being a well-run local.

The bar of the George and Dragon is located to the right of the entrance where there is also some seating along the front windows. Birra Moretti and standard draught products are supported by the bar, as are four hand pumps. During my visit early on Friday evening these were drawing Fuller’s London Pride, Harvey’s Best, Wells’ Bombardier Glorious English and Tonbridge Brewery’s Coppernob. To the left of the entrance is a raised area that houses two pool tables and two dartboards, although it would be a bit of a squeeze to play all four at the same time. Plasma screen are located throughout and Sky Sports is shown here. During my visit there was some dance music playing in the background to the clientele of mixed age.

Out the back is a covered area with some sofas and a table and beyond is a grass covered area with some picnic tables. To the right of the pub is a car park.

This is a decent enough pub that I would have no problem returning to.
