Since undergoing a six-figure investment by Stonegate Group last year, The George Hotel in Wombwell has been welcoming in many individuals from the local community and more recently welcomed the Mayor of Barnsley.

The Mayor’s visit to the pub allowed her to meet with Operator Dawn Spriggs, the pub team, and all the local customers who were enjoying a drink in the pub at the time.

Dawn and the team showed the Mayor around their recently refurbished pub and informed her of all the work which was carried out. Dawn said: “It was an honour to welcome our local Mayor and talk to her about our recent investment. She really loved The George’s look and warm, friendly atmosphere, and could see how much our customers enjoyed having a drink in here.”

As well as speaking with Dawn and the team about the investment, the Mayor was also able to find out more about the pub’s offering of entertainment and sports. The pub holds regular karaoke nights and screens live sports on their HD TV screens all with Sky Sports and BT Sports. The George also has a pool table and a darts board for customers to enjoy amongst friends and family. On her visit, the Mayor teamed up with some of the locals to play a game of darts and pool and even got behind the bar to pull a pint.

Dawn added: “Having the Mayor get involved with the locals, chatting to them and playing games of pool and darts was so nice to see, and really showed how our pub brings the community together.

“We look forward to the next time the Mayor visits the George.”

The Mayor of Barnsley said: “I want to thank Dawn and her team for making my visit to The George Hotel so welcoming and enjoyable. I think the investment that it underwent has truly enhanced the customer experience, and its appearance looks brilliant.

“The George Hotel is a true community hub, and it was so great to speak with the pub’s customers and members of the Barnsley community about how much they love coming to the pub. Dawn and her team are doing a wonderful job at maintaining high standards and offering a great space for everyone in the community to come together. I look forward to the next time I visit Dawn and the team at The George.”
