We had a brilliant birthday party at the George & Monkey. Planning was very easy, all messages were responded to quickly and all of our requests dealt with. The venue is lovely, a good sized area in a great location. A wide selection of drinks at reasonable London prices. And the staff behind the bar were fantastic and very friendly. Highly recommended.
Amazing venue with a great variety of beers, food and great service for a lovely time!
We had our family Christmas meal at G&M today. We had lots of kids with us so it wasn’t a quiet affair, but Julija, her staff and even a couple of locals were so friendly and accommodating, even when we had to slightly change and add to orders. On top of that, the food was delicious! For reference we had all the roasts (beef, chicken, vegan and vegetarian cauliflower steaks). Also if you’re hungry try out the baked Camembert - it’s to die for (as is the vegan chocolate slice). Julija helped with all the planning and coordinating and made it all very easy. We’ll definitely be back!
None!
Great pizzas, easy to book and a lovely space
