A large hotel in the centre of town. The 1597 Bar is at the front of the George Hotel on Devonshire Street and has the appearance of a separate and very modern microbar. It has four beers on handpump. 1597 refers to the year when the hotel was established. The bar staff will happily bring beers through to 1597 from Dappers (another bar in the hotel with 2 real ale handpumps). Both bars can be accessed through the main reception area (via some fine revolving doors), or from the car park behind the hotel (entry off Burrowgate, just past The Pinny). The car park also has a small area of tables and seats for al fresco drinking.
