The George & Dragon

Pub

👍 Great old country pub with probably the best beer garden in the world. Great selection of ales etc but the slowest service in the world. If you are in a hurry this is not the place for you but if you want to drink in the view you are in the right place.

Morecambe Library

Library

👍 People eating tuna sandwiches nearby having a loud chat really put me off and I couldn’t concentrate on my work. I asked librarian if that was allowed and was told yes, people do it from time to time! Aren’t libraries supposed to be quiet not to mention the stink from the food? Besides this, this pl...

👍👍 Went in this morning to re-join/join the library again after about 20 years absence. As I went in it said something like “we are here to help”. They certainly were. Was dealt with by Rosemary who was absolutely fantastic and couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. Thank you.
