George & Dragon

The George & Dragon is a large pub set in an affluent area of a very picturesque region on the east coast, two miles from the sea and five miles from the famous village of Hornsey. The pub is close to three large caravan parks and is a destination for walkers, families and tourists throughout the summer. Aldbrough is a village in the East Riding of Yorkshire.

Pub Layout

On entering the pub, you are greeted by the bar area which houses a central bar servery with a pool area. Separately and accessible from the bar area is the dining area / lounge which has a fantastic carvery servery along with freestanding tables and chairs.  Adjoined to this is a fully equipped catering kitchen. The car park to the rear can accommodate circa 25 cars and there is also a separate fenced children’s play area to the rear of the car park with climbing frames etc. Above the main building are seven letting rooms all in good condition and this provides additional income to the business.

The George & Dragon is the hub of the village all year round and has an excellent reputation for homemade food with fantastic reviews on Trip Advisor. The pub is popular with quiz nights during the week and live entertainment such as karaoke on weekends. Local’s frequent the pub for both drinks and food and there is already an established following. Close by are three caravan parks, busy with walkers and tourists who use the pub to wind down after a day spent in the surrounding areas. In the summer months the children’s play area is also used regularly.
