The time has come for us to say goodbye. After a most wonderful tenure looking after this grand Old George, we must leave. First, we would like to say thank you to the folks of all ages who have helped the Old George to become the local institution it became under our six-year stewardship.

Whilst all good things must come to an end, you are always welcome at an Antic pub. Find a new home-from-home at the Galvanisers Union, Clapton Hart, Farrs School of Dancing or The White Hart.

The Old George isn’t gone forever. A new custodian will move in, so keep your ears to the ground for any developments regarding a reopening.

We would really like to hear your memories of The Old George, so if you have some you’d like to share, you can send these here

…and finally, our beloved pub cat, Patch will be living out the rest of her days in retirement in South London, thanks to Thameside Rescue. She will be looked after by a lovely older gentleman who specialises in elderly cat care.

With love,

The Old George.
