| Best avoided at weekends especially if over 30. Cheap beer but clientele best described as vermin. Cheap food and lethargic bar staff. Too many wannabee kids in the evening and TOWIE types with smeared fake tan, corn beef legs and pelmet skirts. Hoop earings optional.. I keep waiting for ray winstone to smack someone with a pool ball in a sock like in 'scum' brianbrain - 2 Mar 2012 05:26 |
| Although realising before entering that this pub is no doubt still a hole, unfortunately I had cause to return this previous Saturday night. And to be honest, I do like to take a moment to revisit my reviews if they no longer seem fair or relevant due to a more recent, pleasant experience of the pub. This, however, isn’t one of those moments. Before you even go into the pub you are annoyed by the doormen who make you aware that you must have your hand stamped. Why? No answer. Perhaps the question had too many syllables to elicit the required brain function to voice a response, who knows? But anyway, once you’ve made it past the ‘door staff’ and their violation of your body, you move through to round two where it seems the aim of the game is violation of your eyes. DrewB, albeit with the help of A New Hope, described this place most aptly. The scum and villainy levels in this pub are indeed unparalleled in Enfield, but most disturbing is that those behind the bar proved to be most annoying. We don’t need bar staff to like us, respect us, want our presence nor our money, but we do want them to do their damn job in a reasonably professional manner. Of course, the fact that the pub attracts the dregs of society, the people willing to work there will also often fall into the same category. So I realise I shouldn’t really be surprised to find that the aim of the game behind the bar is to only serve the resident coke heads and WAG wannabes on their arms. 0/10 still leaves me feeling like I’ve been overly generous.

| Don't even think about going here after 8pm on a Friday evening unless you are built like an All Blacks rugby player. About 12 years ago me and a retired friend of mine were thrown out by the bouncers for "not fitting in"! Went back a few months ago to meet the same friend in the afternoon, and this time found it to be much quieter. Big pub, but be prepared to stand up to drink later on.

| Shocking place. Service was slow and beer not great. I tried the EPA and the youngs but both tasted poor. nutsaboutbeer - 8 Dec 2011 09:43 |
| A year on and this place has somehow managed to get worse. Mainly because of the bar staff. The building, the clientele and what food and drink is available is much the same as before. But more recently the turnover of staff has left this pub as probably the worst place to drink in Enfield. Of course, upon entering an establishment such as this you expect certain things. The cheap food and beverages has always ensured that The George was a beacon of light for no marks and students alike. A pub fighting a weekly duel with the moon under age for the affections of fake I.D waving degenerates. That was always a given. However, if by some virtue of your own greatness, you were willing and able to ignore that fact, you too could enjoy the delights of actually getting change from a tenner when ordering a couple of drinks. Now, with the rude, nauseatingly slow and incompetent staff they have deemed worthy to work at The George, you can’t even do that anymore. EnfieldTaaaanBlud - 8 Jun 2011 14:40 |
