The pub, in 2013

The Royal George is a historic pub in Staithes, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.

The building was constructed in about 1800, as an inn. It was grade II listed in 1973.[1] In 2021, Tom Parker Bowles and Olly Smith listed it as one of Yorkshire's cosiest pubs, noting its coal fire, real ales, and food including fish and chips and crab sandwiches.[2]

The public house is rendered, on a plinth, and has a pantile roof. There are three storeys and three bays. In the left bay is a two-storey canted bay window. To the right is a public house front with quasi-Doric pilasters and a fascia, containing a doorway with an oblong fanlight. Elsewhere, there are sash windows.[1]
