Old George Huddersfield — Restaurant in Kirklees

We’ve been coming to the George for a number of years and it has always been excellent. We visited today for the new menu and the whole visit was disappointing. They’ve taken several items from the menu, including the Nutella pancakes which were always a favourite. The breakfast sandwich was much smaller than usual and my partner left hungry. The food took a while to come out and due to no pancakes, we ordered the children’s portion of them. The pancakes were chewy and it was overall terrible for £5 but we ate them due to still being hungry. The new manager was also quite rude and seemed snappy with his staff and the atmosphere felt tense. If you’re vegan and don’t want a full breakfast or granola then there isn’t much on the menu anymore either. The original staff remain lovely but overall it was poor experience in a usually fabulous place.

Edit: the owner has replied to my reviews on here and Trip advisor- obviously unable to handle any feedback at all and accused me on targeting them across multiple social media sites which is untrue. Very unprofessional responses so I wouldn’t bother raising anything whilst there!

Also states that we made staff feel uncomfortable when we sat outside and waited, paid online and didn’t directly...

Visited Sunday 15/01/23. The interior and decor is beautiful. Stylish, modern and very current - very comfy seating. The staff were lovely and extremely welcoming! The 2 waitresses were very pleasant. The menu is small but has everything on for a typical coffee shop. Breakfast, sandwiches, flatbreads and sweet treats. The food was beautifully presented and very tasty! I ordered a tandoori chicken flatbread, which was served with spiced fries and rainbow slaw, which was priced at £9. Family I was with ordered halloumi flatbread, sausage sandwich and Nutella pancakes. Everybody was very impressed! My niece very much enjoyed her hot chocolate with cream and a flake ❤️ Lovely little place will definitely be visiting again when I’m next in the area....

We love love love Old George at Heritage Mills! Ever since they opened we have been coming here on little brunch dates or with our little man and every time is a great experience. When we have friends or family visiting from out of town we bring them here knowing it’s great every time. The team are welcoming and friendly, the menu is spot on every time and the coffee (well this is the biggest reason for the shower of love - they know what they are doing)! We also love the tech approach with ordering food and drinks and rewards program for repeat customers is just a great bonus. Special shout out to the Kidlet Pancakes (with a portion of marshmallows) - love from your number one 6...
