Food
Whether it’s long lunches, special occasions or a quick bite, our accomplished Head Chef uses locally sourced ingredients to cook hearty, refined and delicious food.
Seasonal British Pub Food in the Heart of Berkshire
At The George & Dragon, we take real pride in our seasonal British pub food; honest, thoughtful dishes built around the best of local ingredients. Our menus are shaped by the seasons, with changing specials that reflect what’s fresh, tasty and at its best right now. Whether you’re popping in for a long lunch, a special dinner, Sunday roast or a quick bite after a countryside walk, you’ll find that our kitchen champions good produce and good cooking in every dish.
We work with trusted local suppliers nearby throughout Berkshire, and our team of amazing chefs turn those high-quality ingredients into hearty, refined food.
Booking ahead is recommended, but we cater for walk-ins where possible!
Reeves Butchers
Our meat comes from Reeves Butchers, long-standing specialists who share our belief in doing things properly. Their focus on quality, welfare and flavour means we can serve meat we’re genuinely proud of, whether it’s a slow-cooked cut or a classic pub favourite. It’s traditional butchery done well, and it makes a real difference on the plate.
Village Maid Cheese
We source our cheese from Village Maid Cheese, champions of British farmhouse cheesemakers. Their range allows us to serve exceptional British cheeses that are full of character and made with care, from rich blues to perfectly balanced cheddars. It’s all about supporting skilled producers and letting great ingredients speak for themselves. Award winning Maida Vale is washed in Siren’s very own Soundwave!
Village Maid Cheese
Our wine list is curated with help from Milton Sandford Wines, an independent supplier with a thoughtful, food-led approach. Their wines are chosen to complement our menus rather than overwhelm them, approachable, well-balanced and ideal for enjoying alongside seasonal pub food. Whether it’s a glass with lunch or a bottle to linger over, it’s wine chosen with care.

“We went for the Wednesday Grill Night and had excellent steaks, great service, and enjoyed the free beer or wine with the steaks. The steaks were perfectly cooked, and came with good fries, a cooked tomato and mushroom. The bearnaise sauce was excellent. The meal was also excellent value. It feels like there is a lot of effort going into keeping this venerable old pub going, and as locals, we appreciate that. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
