Georgetown pub subject of new ‘Kitchen Nightmares’ episode | FOX 7 Austin
SUMMARY: In October 2024, Georgetown’s Grumpy George pub was featured on Gordon Ramsay’s “Kitchen Nightmares.” Owner Karen Soeffker, facing closure, received a life-changing opportunity when Ramsay’s team contacted her for the show.

The experience, intense yet rewarding, revitalized the pub, attracting more customers. The episode airs Tuesday at 7:00 PM on Fox, but the pub has already seen significant improvements thanks to Ramsay’s intervention.
