Ye Olde George Inn - Badger Pubs

Checked in here for the South Downs way - we’d walked 21 miles so we were ready for a hot meal and bed. Every single staff member was super lovely, helpful, and genuinely hysterical. My mum is pretty particular with her food and they were so kind and considerate with her, without making a big deal. They also really kindly made up some awesome sourdough breakfast sandwiches to go, so we could beat the torrential weather on the next afternoon. Comfortable beds, clean rooms, good food. Would definitely return.

Located in the quiet, charming village of East Meon. We used the pub as a stopover on a weekend walking of the South Downs way - it is only one mile off the National trail and at a doable walking distance from Winchester at the 18 mile marker. This is a more upmarket pub with five rooms. These are quite spacious and towards the upper end of pub accommodation. Our cost was £95 per night. This includes a continental breakfast and a cooked breakfast would be a further £10. After 10 pm the surroundings go very quiet and a good nights sleep was enjoyed. We also enjoyed an evening meal which was gastro pub classics. Service was friendly and professional throughout our stay.

The staff at Ye Olde George were all really friendly, helpful and polite from the moment I arrived till I left. The food in the restaurant was excellent pub food and the Badger ales they had were well kept. The room was spacious, comfortable and pretty quiet. East Meon is a lovely little village with plenty of walking around the area. I enjoyed my stay and extended it by an extra night. I'd return again to explore more of the South Downs.

Went for down to have a cup of coffee at 10.30am on Sunday morning to be told very curtly that check our was 10.30am........I explained that no one had told us that previously, and we would pack up and check out immediately...... We came down 25 mins later to pay our bill, and after paying noticed on the receipt that they had charged £25 late check out fee! I queried this as it was £1 per minute......basically the guy shrugged his shoulders and walked away.

Old world charm in abundance. The staff did an absolutely fantastic job!

Booked and paid for b&b, however, only offered complimentary breakfast i.e. burnt croissants. Full English was offered as a alternative for £10. Faulty shower in room.

Myself and my daughter stayed for 1 night as a halfway stop over. Lovely property, staff very pleasant and welcoming. We booked for an evening meal, we found the menu had limited options (smaller plate/bar menu would have been suffice). However, the steak was amazing and was clearly cooked with quality products and from the heart. The village looked stunning on the drive in. Due to the 6pm check in it gave limited time for us to explore.

Walked via the South Downs Way. Wish I'd checked the details to see they don't open until 6pm so we hung out at the other village pub. Worth the wait though as everything was excellent. Lovely staff. Great room. Delicious dinner and breakfast. Really enjoyable.

We were well looked after by Mark and the food was excellent, prepared and cooked with love. This is a listed building which adds to its charm and the village is delightful.
