About Us

The George Inn in Braunton is a charming, family-owned pub and restaurant that welcomes dogs, situated right in the village centre. It offers convenient access to the South West Coast Path, local beaches like Croyde, Saunton, and Woolacombe, as well as several golf courses including Saunton Sands, Ilfracombe, Royal North Devon, Portmore, and Libbaton. You can also enjoy shopping in nearby Barnstaple, Ilfracombe, or at Affinity Devon near Bideford.

Our team, including Chris, Amy, Roy, and Jane, is excited to welcome you to our family-friendly pub, restaurant, and hotel, where our passion for food truly shines.

Our Pub Kitchen features a delightful selection of home-cooked Mexican and American dishes, using locally sourced ingredients, and we also offer takeaway options.

The hotel boasts five double en-suite rooms and our newly created family room “Lundy”. Ideal for a seaside getaway. Braunton is less than three miles from Saunton Beach, with Croyde and Woolacombe also within easy reach. Our hotel is a favorite among walkers and cyclists looking to unwind after a day exploring the South West Coast Path, making it a perfect stop whether you're coming from Bideford or Woolacombe. Plus, our pub and accommodations are dog-friendly, so your furry friends are welcome to join you.

Braunton itself is filled with pubs, restaurants, and quaint shops, but you can also unwind at the pub with our games room featuring pool tables and darts. We have board games available in our bar and lounge, ensuring you’ll always have something to enjoy at the George Inn.

No matter the reason for your visit, we strive to make you feel at home. We also offer private dining and meeting spaces for hire, so please reach out to our management team for a quote.

Drink

Not only is our food locally sourced, but we also draw inspiration from the amazing local selections available at our bar.

You can always find a fantastic range of local ales and a variety of still ciders from Lilleys on our hand pulls. On draft, we offer four lagers: Amstel, San Miguel, Birra Moretti, and Devon Rock. Additionally, we have two ales, Devon Cove and Icebreaker, along with Guinness.

Our bar features a diverse collection of spirits, including exceptional local gins from Bideford’s Atlantic Spirit and Exmoor Distillery, as well as local rums from Ilfracombe’s Pull the Pin. These local ingredients have inspired some of our unique cocktails, crafted in-house by Chris, such as “The Lundy Island Iced Tea” and “Fruits of the George.”
