The George and Dragon, Houghton

I have visited this pub many times over the psst 35 years. I think it is a great shame that the menu which sounds good (and some of the food was nice when we visited in October 2007) is so inflexible. We had previously stopped for a drink a couple of times and thought the pub was quiet because of the smoking ban. Driving past quite regularly we see that it is nearly always very quiet in the evenings. All the atmosphere has gone. If the landlord gets to read this please think about what has made it a success in the past - food, service and a welcoming atmosphere. We would come back if we got this and we really don't want to see another pub sold for housing! Feb 2007
