    Food at Georgies is consistently of a high standard. The food is always a 'little different' which makes it extra special. Their coffee is delicious and so are the desserts. Atmosphere is wonderful. Keep it up Georgies!

    I always received consistently excellent service whenever I go to Georgie's (even with they have new staff!) and the food is always fresh, fantastic and perfectly cooked. You feel like a member of the family when you are there, and it is very well-priced for a restaurant that offers so much.

    Georgie's has been the most consistent and long lived source of good food since I have lived in Grafton. It responds to change in the city and endeavours to serve and showcase local product. Influences include past contact by both Mark and Geoff with David Thompson which result in a strong Thai influence in some meals. Geoff's wide ranging experience in the heart of Adelaide also brings extra authority to much of their food. Georgie's have been able to achive this while keeping within the budgetary limits of any restaurant in many regional towns which do not enjoy the extra support enjoyed by other cities in wine growing regions or those located closer to major cities.
