The George Bar Restaurant

Really welcoming and friendly staff in a lovely country pub. Seems quite a “locals pub” and the food was ok but could have been much better.

Food was great. Service was great. Staff were extremely friendly and made you feel really welcome. Atmosphere was great. Just a great place!

Warmly welcomed by the landlady who also served us at our table. We all enjoyed our meals which were obviously home made and the syrup sponge was a particular favourite! An enjoyable and relaxing evening. View menu

We eat here on 5 consecutive nights and between us ate the menu food was always excellent every time portions are good. Food is freshly cooked and homemade the price's are amazing but better than all that is the service which is the best I've found anywhere don't let the dated but clean decor put you off this is truly a little jewel in Westmorelands crown

Perfect as a stop off on the coast to coast for my wife and I. Comfortable room and ensuite well stocked with tea bags and coffee. Wonderful cooked breakfast and packed lunch for our forward journey. Evening meals lovely too, nice bar and cosy atmosphere. Andy went out of his way to help us get to the hotel from Shap which was greatly appreciated. Good value and highly recommended

We had a fantastic experience at the George Hotel in Orton. Located in a charming neighborhood, this pub was ideal for Coast to Coast walkers. Bronagh and Andy were incredibly welcoming hosts. Our room was cozy and the food was top-notch. The drying room was a lifesaver for our wet clothes. Our visit to Orton was truly enjoyable, thanks in large part to the hospitality of Bronagh and Andy at the George Hotel. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

The George has recently come under new management by Neil Angela. My family and I had lunch there on Sunday and, being locals, we were excited to see the changes. While the restaurant could use some updating, the exceptional hospitality made up for it. We were greeted warmly by Neil, a fire was roaring in the fireplace, and candles were lit on this cold and dreary afternoon. The Orton Scar cafe could learn a thing or two from them, as their hospitality is lacking. The food was freshly cooked and piping hot. The steak pie, sourced from the amazing Dales Butcher in Kirkby Lonsdale, was exceptional. One of us had it with mashed potatoes and the other with chips, which were very good. The beer w...

As we were staying in Orton village for a short break we called into The George Hotel Bar Restaurant for our tea on a couple of evenings (24th and 25th October 2022) and were given a very warm welcome from the two landladies and all the regulars at the bar. This is a very hospitable, local, village pub and we were soon drawn into the conversations taking place The food is typical pub fare but that does not detract from the quality and it is all, clearly, home made and not just heated up 'freezer ' food. Over the course of our two visits we enjoyed the Lakeland Burger, Southern Fried Chicken Burger (both with superb chunky chips) and the Chorizo Pasta Bake washed down with a couple of pints o...
