King George Tavern — Restaurant in Dunwoody

These chain of British and English pubs around the North Metro Atlanta area have always been a treat. It's nice knowing you can find a dedicated place that'll serve Guinness on tap. Along with that, I always enjoy the English pub look and this place definitely lives up to what you'd expect. That old hardwood look all over and nice big bar counter.

The bar tender was really kind and got my drink quickly and always made sure I was good. They were ready to provide suggestions on what was good and just plain made my experience great.

Now, the food here was waaaay better than I expected. It's that, or I was just starving that day. I tried their Brunswick stew, and I have to say this was better than most dedicated BBQ place I've been to in recent memory. The bar tender even confirmed lots of others said the same thing, even though it's not her cup of tea. Next, I tried the bangers and mash and I enjoyed this hearty dish. The gravy covering the mash potatoes and the sausage was such an enjoyable treat. I was a bit sad after I finished it all cuz there was no more. I certainly look forward to coming back because grabbing a couple of beers here with a great meal is a perfect night for me.

Regards to the chef and bar tender for a great night even despite it being a slower night. I'll...

Was craving fish n chips due to my pregnancy so my sister and I waited for over an hour for them to open being as we live on the other side of town. Additionally, we have had their fish n chips before, and we wanted to indulge in something we hadn’t enjoyed in a while. Being a United Kingdom native, we were extremely excited to get a taste of home. Nevertheless, we received our food and the portion size was absolutely astonishing, the fish had little to no flavor, and there was literally no flakiness to the fish; almost as if they used a breading & not beer batter. I counted literally 10 French fries in my plate and went inside to make my complaint known to my server as I was astonished by the $17 price (including taxes) for food that would leave me hungry after consuming. The server adamantly said, that is our normal serving size that I’m sincerely reluctant to believe because that amount of food couldn’t even cover a basket if that’s what it was served in. I was disappointed behind measure. Not only did we spend a pretty penny to enjoy something we had been craving, after eating, we were starving from the kids sized meal that we had....

I have always enjoyed this spot. The food is consistently good, drinks are solid, and the staff is absolutely fantastic. They make you feel welcome every time you walk in, and that’s a big part of why we kept coming back. Great place to visit with friends or catch up with friendly neighbors.

That said, the recent price increase feels a little over the top. I completely understand costs are up everywhere, but the jump here was big enough that it makes it hard to see the value compared to similar places in town. The recent pricing adjustments place the restaurant in a higher-end range, but the menu and overall offerings don’t fully support that level.

I still think this is a great neighborhood bar and grill with wonderful people behind it, but unless the pricing evens out, it may be more of an occasional stop for us rather than our...
