Welcome to Our
Pub in Tunbridge Wells
The George is an independent, family-friendly pub on Mount Ephraim in Tunbridge Wells, a short walk from the town centre and the Pantiles. It's the town's first brewpub: Fonthill Brewing Co. brews our beer on site in the old coaching stables. Chef Seb serves pub food Thursday to Sunday, there's a sunny patio and a secret pub garden, dogs are welcome, and so are children until 9pm. Drop in on a whim, stay all afternoon. Come as you are — everyone's welcome at The George.
Proudly independent and award-winning, we're part of the Fonthill Collective. You'll find Fonthill beer at the bar alongside an eclectic selection of craft beers, well-known global brands, wines, gins, and spirits.
