Lovely food (Indian takeaway next to it) the setup is a bit bizarre but it works. You can have a pint whilst waiting for your Indian food. The bar staff are lovely and polite, the whole place has a nice atmosphere. They have a pool table, you can play darts. Plenty of parking, and I love the quirky door at the back made from a beer barrel. Overall highly recommended.

Very nice little pub, food was very good. Amusingly they have Foster's on tap, which you don't really see in Australia anymore.

Despite the owners claiming no responsibility for the car park when I asked, I have since discovered (welcome to the internet) that they employ Parking Eye to police it. I parked at their car park for 12 minutes but could not pay as the machine was out of order. I took a photo to prove it. 2 weeks later I get a threatening letter to say I owe them £100. PAY WITHIN 28 DAYS! (Remember that it was a 20p parking payment). I appealed. The pub says they have no idea (do you remember the internet thing?) I am now still waiting for a response from a company that somehow has access to my name and address whilst providing no method of contact. AVOID THIS PUB!!!

Bairmaid wasnt bothered, recognised when we went up to the bar and spent nearly a minute on her phone before she decided to serve us. Second round she decided to again finish what she was doing on her phone then empty the glass washer before serving us.
I parked in your car park on 16 June and have been fined by Parking Eye. The machine was not working (I have photographic evidence) when I went to pay. Paying by the SMS provided is no longer supported ( I have photographic evidence). I tried. Parkin Eye have refused my appeal despite the evidence. I do not have the time or energy to fight them. You say in your answer to a previous review that it is not your responsibility. I beg to differ if you are employing these people to manage your car park. I note they are not registered with the Ombudsman service. What a surprise !

Bar lady extremely rude. Asked if they were open reply was ‘ just about, what do you want’ made me feel like I wasn’t wanted there

Visit the George and Dragon at your peril! We parked in the car park at the rear of the George and Dragon pub on a Thursday lunchtime and went in to the pub. It took a few minutes for our family members to gather together. We then went to the bar but discovered they were not serving lunch. We did not enter our car registration number at the pub till because we'd gone in for food and so decided not to stay. We moved our car a few minutes later and had a lovely lunch at the Gather Inn. We were also able to park opposite in a free car park. A couple of weeks later, we received an Parking Eye invoice for £100. This showed we'd used the car park for 12 mins (the time it took to park, go into the pub and discover there was no food). This does not seem at all in the spirit of having a family meal in a traditional pub. There needs to be more flexibility here on the part of the pub (they could have advised us about Parking Eye, they could have entered our car registration into their pub till because they are well aware that this is frequently happening) and also on the part of Parking Eye (who offer a 0 period of grace - clearly a highly unreasonable company who are just out to make a fast buck). Rather left a sour taste in our mouths after our little visit to Batheaston.
Very friendly staff and excellent
