Excellent pub, great room and food, new managers are very attentive, will be back 
Very welcoming , 
I stayed in the George V11 room which was immaculate and very well appointed, with walk in shower and roll top bath,

Perfect stay

We were looking for somewhere to stay to visit Bristol and the surrounding areas. After ruling out the city centre due to parking we came across The George at Backwell , so glad we did. From arriving and parking up in the ample sized car park, walking through the lovely beer garden into the pub and until leaving our stay was brilliant. We were welcomed and shown to our room , we were in the Clooney room ! The rooms are not huge but more than big enough with plenty of room for storage and we stayed for 4 nights. The bathroom is a good size with a wet room type shower, not my favourite type but it did the job it needed to. We were booked in for an evening meal on our first night , the meal, drinks and the service were great. We were advised as we were staying 4 nights the restaurant would not be open on 1 of the nights but were given plenty of notice. So this was not a problem. Breakfast was lovely , plenty of choice and no tight timescale or too early finishes which is always good when you are away.  We also ate in the restaurant on another night and this was just as good. My biggest compliment to The George would be to the staff. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly , nothing was too much trouble and they all seemed genuinely happy to be there. If we were to go to the Bristol area again I would definitely be staying here. I only wish it was a bit closer to us so I could go for a one night stay now and again ! 

Lovely place , such a good find.

We were made welcome from the moment we arrived.  Our room was small but everything you could want was there so that was ideal for our overnight stay for a wedding nearby.  We really wanted a coffee and were pleased to be told we could get one in the bar rather than the instant in our room.  It was excellent coffee (and my husband is a self confessed coffee snob) served with some little sweets.  We had an evening meal here with friends and we all agreed it was delicious - they even had marked on my menu which meals were gluten and dairy free as we had previously asked.
Breakfast was at good times and a lovely mix of full English and some alternatives which I enjoyed gluten free bread with avocado and poached egg.  It was wonderful.  DE caff coffee also was excellent and not from instant.

Sad we didn't stay longer.

Comfy and best breakfast can do dairy and Gluten free

Never new this place existed , just by chance came across it on google and was so happy I did . Me and my husband visited here sat 17th for our first meal out since last year . We were very lucky as the weather was gorgeous and we enjoyed nachos and a lite bite to eat was very pleasant 
Will be going back very soon 

Lovely first visit back to the pub 

Friendly checkin, themed rooms compact but not small, I like.
Evening meal was very tasty, had goats cheese pizza. Could do with some more and imaginative vegetarian options would be my only criticism. Service excellent.
Bed comfortable and walk in shower/wet room was great.
Breakfast was as good as evening meal with up beat and happy service.
Plenty of parking WiFi usable throughout.
Very nice place to stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

First Stay but won’t be the last

Never judge a book by its cover and this is true of this little gem.  Externally from the road it’s doesn’t look great but once you’re in the car park and walking through the garden into the pub you’ll realise it’s beautifully done and very inviting.  Great pub downstairs selling lovely food and the 7 bedrooms are up a windy little staircase.  We stayed in Custer which was small but perfect for one night.  Very well thought out and we thought it was a great place we would definitely return to if this way again. Breakfast was cooked fresh to order and also delicious 

Small but perfectly formed

Had an early flight from Bristol so booked into the George for the night before. Satisfactory rooms (however became very hot so interrupted sleep). Comfy bed with nice walk in shower. Had a meal when we arrived which was nice, left too early to have breakfast. Overall would recommend for staying if an early flight from Bristol.

Convenient for airport

The food was genuinely quite good, if a little expensive, and most of the waiting staff were friendly and attentive. However, our first waitress was awful. She forgot about us for half an hour, only taking our food and drinks order when I went to the bar to complain. She was then surly, rude to my wife, and mumbled her way through our interaction. I was ready to give the place 1 star. Luckily the other members of the waiting staff rescued things, having recognised the mess their colleague had made. They mostly seem very good and attentive, but one staff member let the side down. Otherwise, would probably have been 5 stars.

One bad waitress

A really pleasant place for lunch - with a large car park and an outside garden.

The service was friendly.

As for the food, it was of good quality and really enjoyable. I had the linguini with king prawns, which was terrific.

I had lunch at the George in Backwell
Food and service were both swell
I could  unwind at my ease
With a menu to please
I surely fell under its spell

Very Enjoyable Lunch

The rooms are modern and appealing. The staff friendly. However, despite a slimmed down menu, several listings were un available. This was blamed on there being only one chef working. We stayed three nights and the restaurant was shut two of them. Some items at breakfast were not available either. It’s a shame that guests were not a higher priority.
