About

Nestled in the heart of the South Downs, Ye Olde George Inn is a 15th‑century coaching inn that marries historic charm with modern hospitality. The family‑run pub offers a diverse menu of local‑sourced dishes, a dedicated children’s menu, and a robust selection of ales, ciders, wines and craft cocktails. With five comfortable rooms that feature en‑suite facilities, guests can extend their visit to a cozy overnight stay. The inn’s riverside location, picturesque patio, and friendly staff make it a delightful spot for both casual diners and travelers seeking accommodation in authentic Hampshire countryside. Whether you arrive for a leisurely lunch from 12 pm to 2:15 pm or enjoy a fine‑dining dinner after 6 pm, the inn promises a relaxed atmosphere and fresh, seasonal cuisine. The historic architecture, combined with the tranquil River Meon view, offers a unique dining experience that many guests describe as both comforting and memorable. If you prefer to reserve a table in advance, simply click the “Book a Table” button on our website or give us a call at 01730 823 481.
