The George Brew House & Eatery

I was excited to try this brewery, but it turned out to be a major letdown. Despite making their beer in-house, the prices are outrageously high—far more expensive than other breweries offering similar quality. The service was equally disappointing. The staff seemed indifferent and not particularly welcoming or knowledgeable. For the price they charge, I expected much better all around. Definitely not worth it. They deleted twice my review, and now i understand how they have 4.4 rating. How you could delete my review?

Had the steak sandwich and the grilled cheese. Very impressive food all around. The made in house sauces were fantastic and the bread was unlike anything we have had on this continent. Service was outstanding, beer was top notch. Will definitely be coming back.

I loved my visit to The George. If you're in downtown Newmarket and want a pint and great meal this is your place. There is a great selection of beer. I enjoyed the Vienna Lager the most, but that isn't to say that all the beers in my flight weren't tasty. I had an open faced brisket sandwich with sweet potato fries and the portions were great. The only minor niggle I would say is that the sandwich was on corn bread and not something more solid. When I would cut the sandwich the bread would just fall apart. But all the food was tasty and I was very satisfied. Service was a great part of The George too. Anastasia was our server and she provided great service and always had a bright smile on her face. All staff I spoke with were also friendly and easy going. There's a good amount of seating inside and some tables outside too if you visit in the summertime. The location is downtown on the main strip so there isn't any parking lot dedicated. You will have to find street parking and walk. It's worth the walk.

Super atmosphere Excellent service Great decor Very clean Fantastic portions Superbly tasting and fresh quality ingredients Great menu items Reasonable pricing Excellent house made craft beers including radler, creamsoda, and much more. Schnitzel platter was excellent including all the sides. Fried Chicken is in the top three I’ve ever had as was the Mac and cheese - perfectly cheese and not runny. I’m not a potato salad person but yet loved theirs. Gravy was delicious however when it came to taking my fork to stir the gravy it was not liquid like anymore it was clumpy, an indicator that this was a mix. This being stated in spite of the texture not being perfect it was actually quite delicious and wanted more! Was there in a n extremely hot day, and unlike other neighbouring restaurants whose air conditions left the restaurant too warm to eat in, George’s was perfectly comfortable. Another key note, their unlimited soft drink service was also excellent. I advised my lovely waitress to keep the iced tea coming as soon as she noticed my glass low and this she did - 4.5 pints of iced tea!! Thank you all for the great experience and I’m coming back for more again!

Very good quality food! I love roasted turkey sandwich and it is a must to try. Our servant, Alana, was nice and helpful!

My husband and I stopped in for a quick beer and lunch on our way to Aurora yesterday. We had two pints of their Shillelagh Law stout (delicious - we wished it was available in cans to bring home) and ordered from their St Patty’s Day menu - Reuben Spring Rolls (ok but very greasy) and Irish Tot-Chos (which were excellent - but would be better if the lettuce wasn’t in long ribbons). Friendly and attentive service, a cool vibe and clearly a popular spot, we will be back when we’re in the area.

Summer winding down and school for the kids starts next week and it's the long weekend so what is best thing to do? Enjoy the summer weather we have left but to have meal in an patio with family and friends. This was our second time in Newmarket this summer and enjoying what this city has to offer so we came here to have lunch. Staff were friendly and helpful, dog friendly patio and we had 2 little guys with us too. We ordered drinks and beer and few meals from the menu. Roast turkey sandwich was very good and was shared withy granddaughter and she loved it. I had the Cod N Chips and I ate everything. Fish was flakey and tender, deep fried perfectly and I loved the chips. The red amber beer was really good too! I hope to come back again...

Really enjoyed the food here - a definite step above regular pub food. The fish n’ chips are the best I’ve had in a very long time, and a definite must to try is the prime rib poutine - they do not skip on ingredients and the taste was excellent!! Quite good pints to pair with the food also.
