Our visit was mid-week, and there were very few staff. We booked ahead but still had to wait a very long time to be seated in spite of an empty restaurant. Service was very slow. The prices are close to fine dining but the food was not. Even a plain soda water was £2.70 where other pubs this would be free. To spend £8.10 on soda was disappointing but not as much as the price vs quality and quantity of food. We all felt like there was a mismatch there. The food would be fine for a lunch or everyday outing but disappointing for a birthday, but definitely not worth the price they were asking. Plates that were done well were very small, e.g not enough vegetables. If any of your party has a food sensitivity or intolerance I'd suggest finding somewhere else. Not very many options for gluten free or lactose free, and deserts even trickier. In all honesty, given there are so many other restaurants and pubs, I don't think we would return. The atmosphere is good, it could be a really nice pub but it feels like they are struggling and cutting corners to save money. The waiter was very kind, helpful, friendly and welcoming though. I'd give him 4 stars, but he can't be everywhere at once. Service only dropped a star because there was no one at the desk to show you to your table, it seemed like only two people on duty serving both bar area and restaurant area as well as front desk.

Disappointing Sunday lunch as the quality & quantity were minimal. My husband had the roast beef which consisted of two very small tough slices, vert small pieces of vegetables but a large Yorkshire pudding to fill the plate. My pan fried sea bass was presented with soft skin, I had 4 raw green beans & halves of boiled potatoes which was with an orange coloured, flavourless pink/ orange coloured sauce. This used to be cooked and served in a completely different manner which was good in the past. I am Waiting a response from the Manager.

I only popped in for a quick drink but the restaurant was packed which must be a good sign

They put a really hot plate right in front of my 11 month old not even thinking but then passed food over the top of his head then to top it off a guy held a tray of drinks over his head while passing them out…. Awful behaviour and the food was not that great tbh

Not great I’m afraid wrong person to diddle I’m afraid. I had a code that gave a free starter or sweet with each main course. Well apart from that main course I had pork belly. I have eaten in a lot of restaurants. I used to love this place how things change. Dauphinois potatoes was Burnt. No taste to sauce with pork then to top it off they added other things on to our bill. So please check your bill when you go here. Because it was double to what it should have been. And I’m sorry but they knew what we had had. Good job I realised when going back to where we were staying. Hubby paid and said by that was expensive so I said it shouldn’t have been there was only two mains and two drinks. So I looked and they had added other things we hadn’t had . Not happy.

Service by Sarah was really great. She made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. We followed her recommendations and these proved to be perfect for us. The food was very good and both of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Food temperature could be improved as my friends food was not hot enough. We also asked for more vegetables but these were provided.

I loved this restaurant, the atmosphere was great, service was friendly and very good not only in restaurant but in bar too. I am currently in Addenbrooks hospital after having brain surgery. It was my birthday and I was allowed to go out for some lunch. Not knowing the area well, this place came up on my search. I am so happy with what I chose. I had a fillet steak which was cooked to perfection, my husbands roast wow it looked amazing, all served with real roast potatoes. Family & friends then joined us in the bar and all staff were very accommodating. Thank you Green Man, you made my birthday one to remember. It is also a dog friendly. Husband paid bill, so no idea on pricing. I believe you cannot put a price on good food & good service.

The food is nice and the atmosphere is relaxed and quiet, however the service is UNBEARINGLY slow. When I went there the first time, first impressions were great - food was delicious and food came at an okay pace however the service was just so slow. I tried a second time to give it another chance yet I was disappointed with how unbelievably slow it was. Across the road is Sole & Duck where you get superb fast and attentive service - potential competition.

We went to celebrate my sister in law 40th birthday. My main was British Half Rotisserie Chicken with Spiced Honey, House Salad (that was nice), Sea Salt & Cracked Black Pepper Squid for entrée (decent) and Home-Baked Valrhona Chocolate Brownie with Americano coffee (brownie was a bit dry). Overall, our party had enjoyed the food, so my rate reflects that. But the service was slow, under par (we only had 1 drink and wanted more but were never asked). We assumed that the waiter was overwhelmed or new to the job. As for the atmosphere, a bit subdued, we must have been the most lively party in the restaurant, so it felt underwhelming as a birthday celebration venue. If you live in the area, it's probably worth a shot. But will not go out of my way to come back.

Everything was excellent apart from the temperature of some food. Cleo's attention and service excellent The 50% mains discount resulted in excellent value

Not bad pub and food was ok. But price for food is sooooo expensive. Not sure i can be bothered to go again, even drinks are very pricey. Shame could be such a good place and a regular pub visit.
