We stumbled across the George & Dragon in Tarvin whilst walking the dog as we were looking for a relaxing dog friendly pub for a quick bite to eat. First impressions were good and on asking about where we could sit with the dog we were pleasantly surprised to find out how dog friendly this pub is, basically anywhere except the restaurant. The staff here were super helpful and friendly and looked after us efficiently without being overbearing - a difficult balance to get right. We ordered a couple of drinks and some food from the lunch menu which arrived quickly and was hot, fresh from the kitchen. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming and we would certainly visit again if we are in the area.

Lovely little Inn run by the family. The new owners are absolutely amazing and building this pub up from the ground. Very welcoming atmosphere, everyone is super friendly, the food is yummy, the menu is quite big compared to the others I've been, the location is excellent, great value for money and pets are welcome. I couldn't have asked for a better stay and if I'm ever around Chester again I'll definitely stay here.To those who are unhappy with the breakfast time please consider it being a pub. 8am is already a very early start for the pub. If you need 6am breakfast perhaps you should consider staying at Holiday Inn or Travel Lodge instead of moaning.

Visited as a sentimental journey as my grandmother was born in Tarvin in 1880 in a three storey Georgian House, The Flaggs. . Pub recently very tastefully renovated.Three of us had lunch which eas lovely.Very pleasant barmaid.Good service.Good atmosphere.Only a few people in but more came in as we were leaving.Very old ace( 1776?). The whole village is delightful and historically interesting.Good centre for local walks.

Sadly did not deliver. The bedroom door missed the bedside table by half an inch. Comfy bed but no privacy from the window so had to keep the curtains closed. Stayed two nights and the room was not serviced. The first morning 6 guests could not get in for breakfast at 8am, the stated start time, indeed the owners arrived as we were all stood on the step. It took half an hour for the cooked breakfast on both days. My one slice of toast the first day was a crust! Saw non residents being served and they seemed happy enough. The residents' entrance was dirty. According to Marstons, the pub is under offer, this may be out of date but it definitely needs a shake up as far as accommodation goes.

Just had a 2 night stay at the George and Dragon. What an exceptional place. Hosts Ken and Kath were very friendly and made us feel most welcome. The rooms we had was beautiful. Exceptionally clean and spacious with a very large en suite shower room. The room had everything you could need. Breakfast was amazing again nothing was too much trouble for the hosts. The choice on offer was fantastic. I had the small English Breakfast which was cooked to perfection and enough to keep you going all day. Big thank you to Ken and Kath for your wonderful hospitality and will certainly come back again.

Location was right on the bus route. Don't think they have rooms as we were staying with friends

a very disappointing experience.Having just moved into the area, we were pleased to have a pub that we can walk to.Had our granddaughters to stay the night so thought it would be a treat to take them out for tea.arrived for a booking at 6pm, were shown to our table and given menus... that was great but it went down hill after that!had to ask to give our food order, as been waiting a while, and then had to wait until 7.10 for starters, another half hour for the mains.... there were empty tables so goodness knows how it would be if full!our girls were very hungry and fed up, but extremely patient and well behaved.we were given a complimentary drink, which was obviously appreciated but overall it was not a good experience and as a first visit has probably put us off going again....

Despite staff shortages the owner and his small team were very pleasant and nothing was too much trouble for them. Although the room was quite small it was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The food at our evening meal was very good and excellent value for money. The choice of food at the included breakfast was extensive and delicious. The pub has a really nice atmosphere with a good choice of beers. For warm days there is plenty of outside seating - our favourite being on the village high street watching the world go by. We will definitely be staying again.

We stayed at the George & Dragon on the way to Anglesey, We were met by Kenny and he made us feel very welcome. The pub was great value for money, the bedroom was comfortable and clean with tea / coffee making facilities and a hairdryer. The bathroom was light and airy with bath sheets and complimentary toiletries, Breakfast was lovely and plentiful with great coffee. There is parking and plenty of outdoor seating. Kenny his wife and team are doing a fabulous job with a very warm welcome and a great atmosphere ? we will be visiting again
