A recent customer review we think you’ll particularly enjoy…

“I have just enjoyed a pre-Christmas dinner with a group of old and very dear friends. It is some several years since I have enjoyed the hospitality of the Green Man. The evening surpassed every previous experience. The ambience, food, and wines were exemplary and I must particularly thank Georgie, our server, who dealt with an unruly bunch of women with great aplomb.”
