Named after a former Archbishop of Canterbury, who was born in Guildford the George Abbot was refurbished following flooding in early 2014. The pub retains its open plan, single-roomed layout but with some partitioning off into discreet drinking areas. Board games beside the door on a cabinet. The pub is decorated in a modern, traditional style with a slate floor and plenty of non-matching tables, for food which is served all day. Booking recommended for Sunday roast lunch. The bar sports a bank of six handpumps.
There is a warm and friendly atmosphere in this vibrant town centre venue.
