the george is so sick for a chilled vibe on the weekends or a quick drink with mates. definitely pop in if you’re in and around the village. you won’t regret it.

definitely the busiest and rowdiest place on the street. we were pleasantly surprised by the service and quality of the food. the table we were seated at was a bit small to be comfortable for 4 people eating though.

went here and had food and a few drinks, up until this point everything was great - food was amazing, drinks were good and our first waitress was very friendly and speedy.

then we ordered a drink with a different waitress and that's when things got weird. after the last drink we asked for the bill and paid, the second waitress came up and asked us if we've paid and we said yes, we assumed the last drink would be on the slip as we don't know the prices of all the drinks because they're not on the menu.

so apparently it wasn't and the second waitress asked us to pay which we were happy to - but we also wanted to look at the first receipt just for our own peace of mind, we weren't disputing what she said.

the waitress got very terse and defensive after this and kept telling us she had charged us on a different slip for the last drink. we understood what she said, we just wanted to see the initial slip because a lot of the prices of drinks aren't on the menu.

she didn't end up producing the initial slip - and like i said, we weren't disputing what she said happened, we just wanted to look at the slip.

she spoke down to us as if we didn't understand what she was saying, even though we did and were willing to pay - we just wanted a final look at the slip.
we weren't fighting with her at all but she got defensive very quickly for whatever reason. we were very polite and spoke to her without any anger in our voices. we weren't looking to start a fight.

anyway, we paid and left because we didn't feel like fighting with a defensive person who was speaking down to us and repeating the same thing and not willing to understand what we were saying.

at the start of the evening, we were actually very impressed with everything but by the end we felt put off by the place. maybe some patience needs to be learned by the staff?

catching up with old friends and reminiscing at the original local.... rather disappointed, the food looks amazing but the flavors are just not right... the burger was filled with cheese and bacon, a nice concept, but i wouldn’t order it again.., very dry and plain... on the flip side the chicken nachos was drowning in what must be a bbq sauce... the tomato salsa was either made with wine or was off... the only reason i have given two stars is the ambiance is great and the prices low.., magic company will always add a star .,,,

very disappointed on my first and last visit to the george on friday night. arrived and tried to get some assistance from 3 staff members, all either blatantly ignored us or said sorry i'm too busy to help you. eventually got someone to help us, who was helpful. we ordered the nachos which were awful, i was expecting some really good pub food but oh well. i won't be visiting the george any time soon.

myself and stacey always enjoy our time at the george. especially when you been out of town for a while... going back feels like sliding on your favourite pair of socks. food is always good, great value lunch specials, tasty curry, and the best biltong in umhlanga. relaxed durban vibes and all good sport shown. plus the gambling cave at the back which looks after us regularly. cheers pete!

man how i love this pub.... good food, service is always good and only place to start off when pub crawling when in uhmlanga, the best place to watch sport and relax, place does get super busy on weekends so trying to show up in the afternoon and simply expecting a table can turn out to be quite a difficult thing to do, cannot recall if they take bookings
see you soon

so.. the george & dragon bar & grill is located at lighthouse mall, umhlanga and in my mind the george has always been the 'billies' of umhlanga (in johannesburg terms): great vibe, lots of atmosphere and cold beers. 

i have actually always loved frequenting it with its pub fare and snack baskets. however, recently (5 november to be exact) i received what tops my list of over 800 restaurants for the most blatantly rude and shocking service from a barman there called bjorn this year. despite several times making eye contact with us, and us waiting for a very lengthy period of time..  he was convinced that by ignoring our girls table, we would evaporate into fresh air. thankfully, our entire group of girls had an excellent sense of humor about it all and found some better service on the other side of the bar. i actually made a point of giving the barman who did finally serve us with a smile, a r100 tip.

*recommendation: hope and pray that you don't get served by bjorn - it may be a long wait.

best pub in the village as far as atmosphere goes. always full and the service is really good considering it can really pump. had my first lunch there today and must say the prawn and chicken curry was superb as were the chilli poppers. great place to watch the sport of you can get a spot.

excellent watering hole at the ideal spot to relax on the pavement.mist if the time it's very crowded however the service is excellent.the food was not upto the mark,may be of my choice and don't think it's a pub food.
