🌟 Meet Amy! 🌟

If you’ve visited the George & Dragon over the last few months, chances are you’ve been greeted by Amy’s lovely smile! 😊

Amy joined our Front of House team in February, taking a little break from her career in teaching - and we’re so pleased she did!

She’s absolutely loved being part of the George & Dragon team, getting to know our wonderful locals and becoming part of what she describes as a “little family” when she comes to work. ❤️

We’re sure our regulars will agree that it shows just how much Amy enjoys her job - that smile is pretty hard to miss! 🍻

🏃‍♀️But there’s more to Amy than keeping our customers happy…
Amy is a keen runner and has taken on an amazing challenge - she’ll be running the London Marathon in April 2027 to raise money for charity! 🎽🏅

And, of course, we’re going to be getting behind her all the way.

Keep your eyes peeled for some upcoming fundraising events here at the George & Dragon, where we’ll be doing our bit to help Amy reach her fundraising target.

If you’d like to find out more about the charity Amy is supporting or to make a donation, you can do so by following the link in the comments below 👇️

Good luck, Amy — we’ll be cheering you on every step of the way! 💪❤️

🍷 Good w**e deserves a good story. 🍷

We’re proud to work closely with Milton Sandford Wines , our trusted w**e partners who share our passion for discovering exceptional w**es from independent producers around the world.

From their chalk cellars in Berkshire, their team travel far and wide in search of outstanding boutique w**es - the kind you won’t find on supermarket shelves, and rarely see on another w**e list.

We’ve worked alongside the team at Milton Sandford for many years, and their passion, expertise and enthusiasm continually inspire us to think differently about the w**es we serve.

They also play a huge part in educating and exciting our team, helping us bring that knowledge and enthusiasm to every bottle and every glass.

Our vintage w**e preserver (Le Verre de Vin) means you can enjoy every w**e on our list by the glass 🍷✨ By protecting the w**e from oxygen, it keeps each bottle fresh and tasting as it should - giving you the freedom to explore something new with every glass.

So, come and enjoy a glass of w**e with us, you certainly won't be disappointed and you might just discover a new favourite. 🍇
