We have had many messages of support since
The George Inn re-opened. Here are just a few:
"Just to say how immensely impressed
we were with the welcome, service and food/drink today.
We had travelled from Oxford to see our daughter (currently
at Kings) and she wanted to get out of Cambridge into the
country for a quick bite and some time with her parents
before getting back to the library.
Your front-of-house welcome was brilliant - a very personable
and attentive representative, who recognised that we wanted
something quick and, given the weather, al fresco. He was
faultless and a very engaging welcomer.
Glasses of chilled wine and fishcakes and salad arrived,
beautifully prepared and tasting delicious. Lovely ambience
on your patio area, comfortable furniture and served with
style.
We will definitely come again - next time with more time
- and spread the word about how your establishment really
does reflect a passion for detail in the experience you
provide. Many thanks!"

"What an amazing, beautiful place, I stumbled across
the George Inn with a friend when I was visiting from London.
We were taken back by the friendliness and cosiness of the
place, everyone was so polite and helpful. Something that
is seriously lacking in London.
We were fortunate to visit on a Saturday evening when the
weather was wonderful; we sat outside and relaxed with a
few drinks in the warm and peaceful evening.
As it started to get chillier we moved inside and took up
residence on one of the many comfortable sofas and could
just imagine the fire roaring away in the winter.
Everything from the front of the Inn to the toilets were
immaculate and just added to the wonderful ambience of the
Inn.
Unfortunately we didn't eat there, but the landlord (who
is possibly one of the friendliest landlords in England)
made the effort to come outside and make sure we had everything
we needed and would we like any food. I took note of the
menu and can guarantee we will be coming back.
Since my visit, I’ve told many people about the George
Inn and when my mum comes down to Cambridge, we will most
definitely be making a visit.
One of the things that made the George even nicer was the
fact that sometimes you expect like that to be a local Inn
and not to take kindly to younger people. I am 26 and was
treated with as much respect and friendliness as the next
person.
Would just like to thank you for a wonderful, lovely evening.
Definitely a 10/10 and a place to remember and return to,
no question about it!"

"We recently visited The George Inn at Babraham and wanted
to let you know it was wonderful. We came in for lunch with
a friend from London, it was terrific food, good portions,
delicious and modern cuisine and excellent presentation
and thankfully timely service. Hope its a great success,
we will see you again soon."
Lisa and Chris Long
"A belated Happy New Year, but an even more belated 'thank
you' for making our Christmas Day 'magical'. It was so well
thought through and perfect, from food to entertainment.
We always enjoy eating at The George, but this time you
surpassed yourselves. A big 'thank you' to everyone."
Helen and Brian Bonney
"I just wanted to write to say thank you again for all
efforts from you and your staff which made our Christmas
lunch so perfect. Everyone who attended has praised the
food, service, atmosphere, staff, environment etc.... I
could go on. Basically, a huge thank you and a very Happy
Christmas to you and your team."
Alison King
"...thank you for a splendid time last Sunday. Everybody
thoroughly enjoyed themselves and we have had so many compliments
about your staff, the food and the pub overall. In fact
I think we’re ready to do it all over again now! So thank
you for making it all so easy and ensuring everyone had
such a good time."
Sally Punshon
"Thank you for a brilliant evening last night. Everyone
has said how much they enjoyed the meal and Sean was bowled
over by the care you and your staff took of him! Please
thank everyone...we may be coming for lunch often now we
know how good the food can be!"
Jeanne Razzel
I wanted just to drop you an email to thank you and your
staff for all your tremendous efforts on Saturday. Both
Neil and I received many compliments about the venue, food,
ambiance etc. So much so that many of the "out of towners"
are desperate to know when your rooms will be available
so they can come and stay! Everyone, including both Neil
and I, had a wonderful time. I will write formally to thank
you but I wanted you to let all the team know as a priority
What a brilliant job they did. You have certainly lived
up to your mission "A passion for detail"!

If you are looking for somewhere to eat in the Bury St.
Edmunds area, why not try our sister pub The
Bunbury Arms at Great Barton, on the A143 just north
of the town? A seven day carvery counter offers a great
selection of roast meats with plenty of other options on
the menu.
