The George

Reviews

• Inexpensive Vegan Food

  With a varied menu featuring numerous vegan options, The George scored above average for its main courses such as the oyster mushroom burger and enchiladas. Rather plain starters with undressed salad left our diners disappointed, but overall, they’d gladly recommend it to veggie visitors as a good value ‘fill-up’ in Brighton. Check out the recently introduced daily menu, which features the day's specials as well as perennial favourites like the Elvis burger, made from veggie bacon, banana, and peanut butter, or the Bangers and Mash, drizzled in the George’s special red-wine onion gravy.

  Ready yourself, this is a pub, but like no other. Being Brighton and that's all about being trendy and unexpected The George is a vegetarian pub. Now do not be put off by this unexpected twist in the tale, there's a really 'meaty' (even by vegetarian standards) menu to get your chops round and great selection of beers and wine! This place is well known by the locals and fills up fast! Best time for a sitting is a lazy sunday when you can bask in the mostly ye olde wood bar surrounds and enjoy a Big George feast. My favourite was always the famed George salad, again 'salad' may sound dull dull dull, but this is BIG George with pine nuts, avocado, the famed vegetarian sausages, fresh leaves, spinach, sun dried tomoatoes and a springkling of seeds. And all for £6.25! Incidently the wine is vegetarian too, so you can quaff guilt free, well aside from the potential impact on your liver...But at least no animals were harmed in its production and its got to be healthier too! A note on Sundays: The roasts are huge so go empty, and do get there early to nab a table as people queue to be here! Food is sold until it sells out. Which is quick! Roasts are come with all the usual accompanyments and trimmings. AND with a crumble/strudle for dessert! So this is how The George has gained in popularlity; you wont leave empty! Prepare to roll homewards, content and ever so slightly smug... Oh and Al Murry pops in every now and then too!
