The George Inn

About

The George Inn is a historic Grade II listed pub that dates back to the 14th century, perched in the heart of Alfriston on the South Downs. Boasting timber beams, a roaring log‑fire and a generous walled beer garden, it offers a cozy, home‑like atmosphere that has welcomed locals and visitors for over two centuries. Family‑run and fiercely traditional, the inn provides hearty meals, freshly brewed pints and a wide selection of dining options, from a small lunch menu to a fruits‑rich Christmas menu priced at £32–£39 per person. With a dedicated kitchen open daily from 12:00‑20:30 and a welcoming kitchen front, guests can savour a range of dishes featuring locally sourced ingredients, including vegan and gluten‑free choices. The inn also offers five period‑faceted bedrooms – breakfast is included – that provide comfortable lodging for travelers and give locals a convenient base to explore the stunning South Downs and nearby cultural attractions. Regular guests enjoy the warm, rustic charm and the real sense of history that permeates every corner, while first‑time visitors are drawn in by the inviting beer garden, the roaring fire and the array of delicious, locally sourced food. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick pint, dining a leisurely dinner, or staying over the night, The George Inn delivers an unmistakably quintessential English experience.
