Lonely Planet review for George Inn

The always-popular George Inn is London’s last surviving galleried coaching inn. It dates from 1676 and is mentioned in Dickens’ Little Dorrit. No wonder it falls under the protection of the National Trust. It is on the site of the Tabard Inn (thus the Talbot Yard address), where the pilgrims in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales gathered before setting out (well lubricated, we suspect) on the road to Canterbury, Kent.
