So this was a spot that actually had a pub feel to it. Kind of a dive bar feel to it. Which is totally fine. You go in and it's a little bit dark and they have TV so you can watch sports but it's nothing fancy but it gets straight to the point. You'll come in and most likely sit at the bar which is where a lot of the action is. You park outside and have your own parking lot so you have to worry about that but it's very friendly and all the bartenders are really friendly as well. I had been one time and they acted like they were trying to get to know me and I appreciate it that customer service. I just came in for a quick meal to get my macros together, so I got the brussel sprouts and a chicken wrap. The chicken wrap was pretty good. Nothing crazy or nothing amazing or not. Nothing special, but it was still pretty good. The fries were steak fries, cooked pretty well. The brussel sprouts were good. It was just basic bar food so I don't have anything bad to say but just par if that makes any sense. read more

The King George Tavern has been a go-to trivia spot for my friends and I for the past few months and the experience keeps us coming back. They host Team Trivia every Thursday at 8pm which can be difficult for a younger group, but is still fun. The ambiance of the bar is great. It's definitely a little limited on seating but that allows the bar to have a cozy vibe and really feel like you're in a British Pub. The bar also has some golf arcade games if trivia isn't your thing. Staffing can sometimes be a little light, but when staying for a while and playing trivia it isn't too noticeable. Most of the food is typical bar food and for all my previous visits it was decent but nothing special. However, on my most recent visit I tried their signature meatloaf and it was a level above all the other food and something I will definitely get again. Overall, I think The King George Tavern provides an excellent experience for a trivia night with friends, and I'll continue going back. read more

The King George Tavern - Meatloaf - Pubs Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

It is usually hard to find authentic feeling, old school pubs around where my girlfriend and I live. Surprisingly, The King George Tavern is right next to where she lives. We have gone several times over the past few months and it really does have that authentic and old school pub kind of ambiance to it. Many of the folks in the place were locals and regulars. There was a lot of laughter and a lot of visiting going on. The food is good. The menu is a Pub menu. There is a good beer selection and some wines to choose from as well. The service was excellent. Our food always comes hot to the table and we enjoy the selection. It's not fancy, but it is worth a visit. read more

The King George is clearly a neighborhood favorite, and it's easy to see why. When we arrived, the counter was full of local regulars. The bar knows how to pour a good drink, though I'd love to see more craft beer options rather than the usual mass-produced selections. What really stood out was the food. The kitchen is the star of the show here. We each had a special "au jus" sandwich which was absolutely delicious: hearty, flavorful, and very satisfying. One of the bartenders took excellent care of us, checking in often and making sure we had everything we needed. She was clearly working hard and it showed. Overall, The King George delivers a warm, welcoming experience with standout food and strong service. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. read more

We always make sure we stop here every time we visit Atlanta. Great food, casual friendly atmosphere, great drink pours, reasonable prices, excellent service. Love to patronize local establishments. Pam is the best bartender, so friendly and welcoming. read more

Might Be The Best Bar in Northern Atlanta Good for a late evening dining. The burgers are always good and you can get them made with beef, chicken or turkey and fixed a variety of ways. They also make a very good bean burger. It's definitely dark and pubby and seems old although it's new. We find the wait staff to be very attentive and pleasant. This is part of a small chain and we find the chef one step up from a sister restaurant. The menu reads like a newspaper and is interesting. Nice people, decent food, stiff drinks, and shots. Good bar Thanks read more

Not impressed. Got the Spicy patty melt with a wedge salad. The meat on the patty melt was dry with little or no flavor. It tasted like it had been sitting in warming liquid and thrown on the grill for 5 seconds. The sauce was sloppy and the onions were limp. The wedge a Salad was huge but had several brown areas and the dressing was not very tasty. The fries were hot and delicious. The waitress was very nice! read more

King George may have the best ambiance of any bar in the area. It's friendly, with great bartenders, a ton of regulars and just the right feel. The food is very good. Their Friday night prime rib is a whole thing and the appetizer menu - which just changed - has some great stuff. Try the new buffalo chicken dip (have them warm it up) and the cheese sticks. The only drawback is unfortunately a significant one: the pricing is way out of line with competing bars and has recently gone even higher. Beer prices can be $2 or more higher than anyplace else with the well drink situation even worse. We all know inflation is happening and prices will inevitably grow higher, but KGT's pricing is way too high to stay competitive. Hopefully they will right things before the prices drive off what is a tremendous social situation. read more

This place is somewhere I'd maybe come back for a drink but not the food. Step inside and it has that old, English pub feel, with lots of dark wood and some British themed decor. We were the only folks sitting at a booth when we came in around 7 on a weeknight, although the bar had a number of customers. The bartender took our food order and it came out decently quick, but the food itself was just ok. My fish sandwich with mango salsa was alright, but that's about it. Tried a little of a chicken burger which was also just OK. read more

Honestly, I love this place. I've turned it into my own little 'Cheers'. I don't live in the area, but used to date a guy who does. I started going in 2020. I'm glad they survived the pandemic. I've turned it into my meetup spot if someone lives further up near Perimeter/Dunwoody. Fish and chips are my meal here. I get either Jamison & ginger or Irish car bomb. Super random choices. There will be a GA liquor tax & other fees added. It makes the drinks more expensive. I'm a 2 drink MAX kinda person. It's cozy and the staff is friendly. They usually always have a female bartender. Can't remember the names though. Oops!! Be safe! Don't overdo it and drive! read more

The King George Tavern is a great little local pub. Located across the street from the Kroger on Chamblee Dunwoody road just barely north of I-285. The parking lot is small and cramped, but it's plenty large enough for the size of the places. There is also a Subway and a Marcos Pizza so not much pressure from those places for parking spaces. This is a 5 Star review because it is 5 Stars for what it is meant to be...just a small local pub. If you are looking for a fine dining experience, check out some other 5 Stars reviews. The atmosphere is just local English Pub. It's super clean and a little brighter than some other local spots. You'll find a good menu with solid bar and pub food. Great daily lunch specials. TVs and two Golden Tee machines. There is a fairly large amount of regular Golden Tee players that hang out here. Sometimes me. It's not particularly loud. They have trivia one night a week for those who like that. Pam runs the place during the weekdays and she is awesome. Pam is a well known commodity in the local area. She takes good care of you, so take good care of her. Great local watering hole, plenty of TVs for sports, nice local crowd, solid food, and Golden Tee. What could go wrong? Stop on in for lunch or happy hour and you'll be glad you did. read more

Nice local neighborhood bar. This bar is a part of the Dunwoody Restaurant Group so the menu is consistent with its other sister bars. The food here is affordable and really good. My favorites are the Lamb Wrap, the Chicken Tenders and the Corned Beef Egg Rolls. Pre-pandemic they had trivia nights. I'm not sure if they still do this but it was really fun. It was Adult Trivia so some of the questions were a bit raunchy. Definitely for adults only. Biggest Con is the music. Its always Rock or Country. I would like if they mixed in some top 40. Thats the only thing that keeps me from hanging out here longer. The drinks are made strong but not as affordable as some of the other bars in the area. I would recommend as a pre-game spot or a wind down at the end of the weekend. read more

Yikes - my husband ordered at the bar, and it took 45 mins for chicken and waffles takeout. Never ordered it before, but it's disappointing that the waffles are like eggo waffles. And they're fried?? Not in a good way like fried Oreos either. The waffles and tater tots were so incredibly oily that they're inedible. It's like the oil wasn't hot enough before they started frying. We used to come here so often, and the food was really good. Very disappointed:(. read more

I've been here several times through the years. Always have a good time! Staff is on point and friendly bartenders. The food is good pub fare and nice portions. I am not a beer drinker, so its mixed drinks for me. Ive always had a good mixed drink here with no complaints. We went in this last week for a charity event they had collecting donations for humane society. Live music, donations on display and a good turnout!! Will always recommend, will always return. read more

Decent local pub with good food! We came here for trivia night (Thursdays at 8pm). Drinks were good - I tried their Moscow mule and the other vodka drink but I forgot the name. For appetizers, we ordered the jalapeño poppers and mozzarella sticks. Both were delicious! I had the fish and chips but it was just okay. I'd try something else next time. The meatloaf dish was pretty good and huge but a tad bit salty. Shepards pie looked good. Green beans were perfect. read more

Stopped in here right before a show (Spamalot!) at the amazing Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center (that's another 5 star review !) . We were a little pressed for time but they got us in and out in a jiffy. Had an epic Philly cheesesteak, kielbasa slices grilled, and some corn beef rolls. All topped off with a Smithwyks and a Guinness. Service was great and ambience is old English pub vibe. read more

Lobster Grill Cheese BUSSIN!!! Sweet Potato fries 6/10 Irish Spring Rolls garbage!!! I wish the sweet potato fries was much better, flavor wasn't there and the fries was kind of dry.. I would not recommend the Irish spring rolls to nobody, not even a hungry hippo. read more

We ordered mushroom Swiss burger, French onion soup, homemade pies, and fried fish taco. Fish taco, burger, and onion soup were very good. I deduct one star because the homemade pies were not good. The pies looked like leftovers that didn't get microwave long enough because the middle is still cold. I spit it out so I didn't taste it but it also looked dry. They were able to replace it with fish taco and the waitress was diligent. read more

Cool pub where you can also enjoy drinks and food in a backyard setting. King George Tavern is located on Chamblee Dunwoody Road, just north of I-285 and across from the Kroger plaza that also houses Farm Burger. The parking lot is small, but it is adequate for a moderately busy weekend afternoon. Interior of the tavern feels like a European pub, while the outside of the tavern has lawn chairs and patio furniture that is comfortable for small to medium sized groups. The menus are printed to look like newspapers, which I thought was cool. Service is prompt and excellent both at the bar and at a table. On the Menu (Front Page News?): The menu has mostly traditional pub fare - sandwiches, burgers, and soups. There are a bunch of different salads, which include Cobb and salmon. More randomly, you can order fish tacos. What I Tried: Aberdeen Smoked Salmon Salad - Don't recall the exact price but the salad was around $10. The salad consisted of spinach, a lot of smoked salmon, a good amount of feta cheese, and diced red onions. I liked the abundance of fish in the salad, which had a good smoky flavor that was not too strong. At the same time, I think the salad could have been improved with more dressing. You could taste the dressing, but there wasn't enough to add a lot of flavor to the whole salad. Verdict: Four stars for decent food and great atmosphere. I'm always a fan of places where you can eat outside and enjoy good weather. The outside furniture is comfortable and the service is excellent - which in my opinion matters even more than the food when you're at a pub. read more

I purchase a discount coupon from LocalFlavor.com. My family of three took a chance and decide to try this restaurant. I was smaller then the pictures online. We found a booth. A waitress came to take our drink order. As she walked away I tried to show her the LocalFlavor.com coupon but she turned and said I don't need that now. She came back with the drinks and took our food order. I just started to take a sip of my drink and notice what I thought was a coaster. I could hardly read it because it was a dark booth. It said We do not accept Groupon and /or Local Flavor coupons. I asked the waitress about it she said she would talk to the manager. After our food came out the manager refused to accept my paid discount coupon. I think the fair thing to do would be to get out of this program and then grandfather any coupons already sold. read more

There tater tot's and lobster grilled cheese is really good. Their fries are all right. The sweet potato fries have no seasoning. The Philly cheesesteak has fake cheese sauce on it, it's gross. We tried the spring rolls, Irish, they were flavorless from the cabbage to the beef to the actual breading, no flavor! I will go here again for the lobster grilled cheese is what I recommend. read more

My new local fave!! Great bartenders and great company! The full menu is finally back, and it appears the soups are pretty legit. I personally recommend the mozzarella sticks. If you're feeling fancy, ask them to toss them in hot sauce. :) read more

I had a group of 24 that were in town for a training class and wanted somewhere close that we could do a "group dinner" at during our 4 day class. This establishment was perfect! Walking distance from the hotel and the perfect fit for our group. Smaller place so I did call the day before to see if they could accommodate our party and they had no issues with doing so. From the time we walked in until the time we left this place was spot on!!! The staff is fantastic. The food was perfect. I need to give a "shout out" to the two folks in the kitchen who never flinched a second and got the appetizers and main dishes out timely, tasty and very, very enjoyable! If you are looking for a cozy, neighborhood feel good place to grab a beer, some awesome pub (English/Irish) themed food in a cool pub like atmosphere.......this is the place to go and try. The staff and the scratch food made the customer experience an A+ and I will recommend them to anyone from my company who stays at the nearby hotel a must! read more

I love KGT. It's a cozy lil OTP bar with an amazing Asian Bleu Cheese Steak sandwich that I crave! It's just a drool-worthy masterpiece. The service has always been good and with the personality you'd expect from a "local" type of place. The crowd is a bit older and nice. I'm definitely a fan. They have a solid menu and good beer! I'd probably pass on the cocktails - unless you're not picky. read more

Reuben is delicious! Lobster grilled cheese is killer! Drinks are STIFF! Atmosphere is chill. Really cool place.

I can't say it enough! Love this place. Favorite spot to watch the Hawks game. Alicia, Dusty & Colby are my favorite bartenders! They never forget my drink of choice & Whenever I want to try a new drink, I know they will not disappoint! Bar is stocked with a great selection of liquors - I'm typically drinking vodka - Titos is always stocked!! Maintains is British pub identity throughout- from decor to menu its Brit legit ;) But my favorites are more of their classics; wedge salad, steak kabob tips (omg amazing!) Wednesdays are trivia - Soo much fun! The host is the sweetest most hilarious woman you will ever meet! Nice patio setup outside too! Soft couches and chairs. Perfect for spring & summer! Check them out!! read more

The King George Tavern - Fri-YAYYYY - Pubs Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Love the close proximity to my condo! It's a pub people, not a 5 star chef inspired restaurant. It is a part of Dunwoody Group restaurants and I believe they have the same menu as my longtime friend "Dunwoody Tavern" down the street. I appreciate the salt/vinegar crisps. The wings are tasty but not as consistent as I would like. I like the attentive bartenders but sometimes table service is slow if the place gets slammed. The place gets slammed often because it's cozy and new. The St. Patrick's day crowd was quite amusing and the place was festive and lively. They ran food specials that incorporated loads of corned beef. I did not understand why there were no drink specials on such a drink worthy day. I wish I could make the bar longer or knock a wall out to create more space because the popularity can make it feel very crowded. Nonetheless, I will remain loyal! read more

King George Tavern is a little pub on Chamblee-Dunwoody, across the street from the Kroger and Farm Burger. Even though this review is about the King George Tavern in particular, it could apply more generally to most of the restaurants owned by the Dunwoody Restaurant Group. This is to say the Dunwoody Tavern, O'Brien's, The Royal Oak, The Ship and Anchor, the Bat and Ball and the Iron Horse tavern. While individual differences remain between each, they all share a similar, and in some cases, identical, menus. I'm writing a review about the King George Tavern because it was the most recent one of these restaurants I've visited. The pub has a nice, cozy feel to it and a friendly staff. It's the sort of place that you'd want to have a few beers on a cold, winter night. Also, King George's seems to be a bit more family-friendly than the average establishment known or the service of alcohol, so take that as you will, good or bad. Personally, I like my bars free of children but clearly not all parents would agree with me. The food is quite good, if you don't like bar food, and if you don't, then we can't be friends. The meat loaf with ground beef, Italian sausage, spinach leaves no room for complaints. Neither did the Buffalo Blue Burger, topped with Buffalo sauce and blue cheese and served with a side of sweet potato fries. As a bonus, I asked for my burger cooked medium, and it was actually cooked medium, and not medium rare or medium well. Incredible! In general, if you're not looking for some fancy-schmancy, farm-to-table, chef-inspired, organic food served in tiny portions at exorbitant prices that seem to be in the fashion these days, you should find something that will easily be to your liking at King George Tavern. read more

This has become my go-to bar in Dunwoody. The staff is exceptional, the beer variety is good, the food is solid, and you can always strike up a conversation with other patrons... Always. I've had most food items on the menu, and it's much better than other bar fare. Last time I got nachos with the house special hot sauce (only available upon request) and they were really good. Basically, if you're looking for poseurs, this is not the place for you. If you want an authentic neighborhood bar which is routinely frequented by Brits watching soccer on TV, where the bartender will remember your name AND your drink, where patrons at the bar will strike up a friendly conversation, you should visit King George Tavern. read more

Excellent service, decent prices and good food. Very friendly atmosphere. Fish and chips on the small side so they need to make portions a bit bigger. read more

UberEATS review summed up: SANDWICHES! OH MY! We've ordered from The King George Tavern via UberEATS twice now. The first time we had a hiccough, and half of our order was missing- in a feat of amazing customer service, TKGT sent one of their own employees to deliver the missing parts to us. Things happen in restaurants, but it's how you correct them that makes all the difference. FOOD: Triple Dip- SUPER garlicky hummus (which I love), deliciously creamy goat cheese, and salty olive tapenade... This is a flavor and texture explosion in a dish. My husband and I both remarked on how surprised we were by how much we liked a "dip trio" dish, as usually you only really like one, or MAYBE two if you're lucky. Chicken and Waffle Croquettes- Unfortunately, I don't have another word to describe these other than "gross". The ground chicken is REALLY dry, and the maple dipping sauce is more like some sort of vinegary based sauce with maple flavoring. All together, it just didn't work, at all. We each ate one, and threw the rest away. Reuben- I have never really liked reubens, but now I crave them after having eaten them from here. The quality of their ingredients is on point. This sandwich is salty, slightly sour, savory, and ordered with a side of sweet potato fries, you get some sweetness in there too. Sweet Potato Fries- These don't travel well, but I am willing to bet when they are hot, that they are fantastic. The flavor is delicious. Asian Bleu Cheese Steak- This "Bleu" (ha, see what I did there) my husband's mind. The flavor on this sandwich is absolutely outstanding. He's still talking about it 2 weeks later. I had a bite, and I can attest to the deliciousness of this sandwich. read more

A delicious new neighborhood joint! My first and so far only experience with DWG at Bat and Ball was pretty good, though nothing amazing. But I was excited to try King George Tavern being that it's within walking distance of home. Service was very friendly; our server told us about the specials, what was good, popular, and what she enjoyed on the menu. Beverages were promptly refilled which is always important to me, and she checked on us regularly. Very friendly. We got the Irish spring rolls which were like a reuben egg roll. Good but not as good as those from Olde Blind Dog in Brookhaven or across the street at Goldbergs. We split the lobster grilled cheese with French onion soup and the meatloaf. The grilled cheese had plenty of lobster meat and was very rich and cheesy. The soup was also fantastic. Would definitely get both again. Meatloaf was delicious and very filling. Might look to try more on the menu before going back to it. We didn't have desserts but she described them to us and they sounded tempting. Atmosphere was nice and cozy with a good looking bar and plenty of tvs. Looking forward to returning! read more

Ugh. You ever see the movie "At The World's End?" Basically the main characters are hitting all their old teenage stomping grounds 20 years later as society contributing adults. There is a scene where the guys have this Groundhog Day-type experience at one of their bars. I had the exact same experience at The King George Tavern. I didn't realize it was the same company that owned Dunwoody Tavern--and even though we really didn't enjoy our experience there, we thought we should be fair to their sister restaurant and give it a shot. Maybe at least for a couple beers and a few apps. That wasn't going to happen. We order two beers and one is incredibly flat--no carbonation at all. I wasn't in the mood to even bring it up to the bartender (who was very nice) already having come in with lower expectations. I love the "It's a pub people, not a 5-star chef inspired restaurant" comment from another reviewer. Yeah...well, a pub would at least be able to pour a proper pint. Dunwoody Restaurant Group just won't get anymore of my money. read more

Typical local dive bar with gastro pub menu. It's a smaller, more intimate bar that allows the staff more personal interaction which is great. There is a nice selection of beers on tap including some local selections from breweries in the Atlanta area. I ordered the shepherd pie, which came out quickly, but was just ok. I would recommend this place to come have a few drinks after a long day or to go out closer to home, but if you are looking for top notch food or cocktails I'd keep looking. read more
