The George, Earley

Dont be fooled by the beautiful exterior and interior of this once fabulous establishment.... Where do I start. What you see is not what you get. Walls decorated with blackboards full of menus, but unfortunately chefs unable to cook the basics. first of all they had run out of fillet steak, so had to settle for sirloin grissle and sundried chips. I requested a side order of bubble and sqeak which turned up looking like tutty fruity icecream - i.e mash potato with smashed carrots mixed in and the odd pea.

Had to check the menu when my plate was decorated with a single mushroom. But the menu clearly stated "steak with mushroom".

When complaining to the manager who english was very limited her "shrug of the shoulders" attitude was - you must be happy with your meal as there is no vineger on the table and the best cut steak, apparently always comes with mostly grissle! Only thing is my grissle came with a bit of steak.

On hearing her excuse my partner and i burst out laughing. The meal is the worst meal and not worth the �32 we paid for it. But the laugh we have had is actually priceless!

Instead of going to jongulars comedy club try The George!
