Famous Green Man in Epsom and Ewell

Been in twice since it reopened with new management. Welcoming, good service, really enjoyed the Sunday roast and plenty of options for children's food. Will definitely return!

We came here for the bottomless brunch and thought it was just bottomless drink and a breakfast for a girlies catch up and we’re literally so surprised to see a singer with a guitar who was just amazing (@averagejoegunner on insta) Hayley who was host on the day was so on the ball with topping up our glasses teamed with Joe taking our requests we have had the best day will defo be back what value for money! Defo 5 star

Met up for a family lunch - the pub was unusually quiet for a Sunday, which suited us perfectly. We all had roasts, the sharing trio was particularly good value. Could not fault the service, the food was well presented and delicious. Only negative was that we were too full to manage desserts, so will have to do that next time!! Thoroughly recommended, thank you.

The best pub roast dinner I've ever had. Absolutely delicious and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. Will be coming back!

Great experience, especially with the pool table

I rarely recommend or do reviews as everyone likes different things. But have to let you all know that I’ve just had a fab roast at the Famous Green Man. It was quiet there but didn’t deserve to be. The host was charming and when he knew it was my birthday insisted I have a large glass on the house! Please do consider it next time you’re looking for a Sunday lunch venue!

Under new management, kitchen open. Food awesome.

Good atmosphere. The drinks aren't that bad priced. Not tried the food though.

Came here for a paint and sip event in July and liked the menu so popped back tonight and enjoyed freshly made pizza. Yum yum. Lovely pub and friendly staff. Pooch enjoyed her visit too.

Visited this evening (29/7/24), with my wife. Am shocked at the price of a pint of Stella plus a medium white wine (with Soda) £13.45! No wonder there was only about 6 people in the establishment. Will not be returning here again in a hurry!

Had an excellent meal. Freshly cooked. Presented really well. Service was 10 out of 10. Could not do enough for us. Great value for money. Not over priced for good quality food. Completely refurbished with comfortable, colour furniture. Definitely worth a visit.

Upgraded from the down at heel pub it had become. Newly refurbished restaurant area separate to the bar. Good selection of food .Service outstanding . As a Gastronomic pub finding its way but promises to be a great asset to Ewell Village worth a visit . There is plenty of parking immediately behind and also outside seating right in the middle of the historic village of Ewell.

Would definitely recommend this pub for food. Had all 3 courses and the quality , presentation was superb . Will be be going back to try the Sunday roast 👌

This Pub has gone down hill and it’s such a shame. Only 1 tv working properly the other one had a delay of 40 seconds so when watching the football half the pub cheers before the other half knows the outcome. They decided to plonk a pool table in the middle of the main drinking / sports watching area. Patrons just use it as a bench and put their drinks on it. They’ve put the price of drinks up, I don’t know why anyone drinks there to be honest. On a good note, Friendly efficient staff.

Had a very good evening at this pub and must say the bar staff are really welcoming and friendly. The band had everyone up dancing and singing with a variety of songs and the management have really made this pub come to life again.

Nice pub with friendly staff and outside seating

Comfortable single bar pub in Ewell High street. Limited off street parking,TV, only one real ale today but 5 pumps.

Very sad witnessing the demise of a once much-loved local pub. Lacking atmosphere.

This place has been on a downward slope for some time now. Has new managers but they were only given a short lease by stonegate brewery so wisely they have not invested a lot.

Great atmosphere and friendly staff

No customer service wait for ages with the one staff member serving while purple hair manageress walks about doing absolutely nothing, abysmal attitude towards clients

Pub has changed hands since my original review and things have changed a great deal. Not for the better either. Atmosphere has got rougher, it is less family orientated and they do not do food anymore. Used to love this pub but now I don't really want to go in anymore. Shame for me, but they do seem to be doing a good trade so obviously works for other people.

Very well appointed and great service. Loads of TVs for sport. Friendly place.

This pub would benefit from a refresh, the interior is very drab and dreary. The staff are friendly and there is an OK selection of beers. The pub doesn't serve food which is a shame.

John and his team are great .....pop in for a pint, and the Sunday roast is worth trying. Ideally located with a carpark towards the rear accessed via ,free on a Sunday.

A great village pub. Good atmosphere.

Terrible bar staff. Bad attitude. Caused a night with myself and my son. Will never drink there again. Say we’ll clear.

Went to watch the football, no atmosphere and poor quality sound.

Very nice warm welcome i got when I first entered the pub it is well managed pub with very friendly bar staff many thanks for your service I will be back soon

Very polite staff like it there

Great pub service with a lovely smile

Great place to be and enjoy with friends or partner.

Went to watch the champions league final and the two ladies that was on was really polite and friendly. Brilliant pub will visit again

Great place for a drink with freindly staff and sociable a pub with a great range of beers and gins.

Good pub with friendly staff. Very tired and in need of a re-dec. clean enough and good beer

Dropped in for a few drinks last night. Staff were great and the drinks were very good value. Nearly half the price of somewhere like Wimbledon. The pub itself is okay. Perhaps a little stark inside, hence the four stars.

Had a great evening great band Jump the Gun nice friendly venue great staff I would recommend anytime 😊 👍

Very nice pub, friendly and attentive 👍🏻

For my father's wake, it was lovely. Thank you for your kind hospitality.

Great pub and food, John and his staff are always ready to great with a smile

Nice place to watch footy. Friendly staff

NIce pint of the black stuff, friendly staff swift service.

Great food, good service, comfortable atmosphere.

Welcoming pub in the heart of Ewell Village, owner and bar staff are all very friendly and cannot do enough for you

Nice staff, nice beer and landlord very friendly and welcoming.

Friendly, helpful staff made our visit enjoyable!Beer was very good and plenty of choice!!

Only been here once but it was nice. Also John you are a god among men.

Well kept ales good food and friendly staff what more could you ask for

My favourite whenever I'm in the area,great service and friendly staff.

Had 2 have a meal with a beer if I ran out of food and drink &wanted another beer I'd have 2 buy another meal bad bad deal I think.

Breaking COVID rules! We visited yesterday and there were two tables with more than 6 people on! I heard the bar man say, ‘it’s fine, you don’t look sick’! The pub was so busy which is great for the business but not for COVID!

Love this pub, always a warm welcome from the landlord John.

Ewell is not a poor area, but this place really should be able to produce a better impression overall. Could do better at making people welcome

Bit cold but we had blankets to keep us warm and the burgers were great!

Unfortunately this visit was not a pleasant one. Firstly, there an obscene amount of passive aggressive signs (many contradicting each other) all over the pubs and toilets. The oneway system implemented simply just forces you to not socially distance while passing tables. The staff were unwelcoming and it almost felt like they were doing you a favour by serving you. We apparently missed the kitchen hours (probably the only thing that wasn't on a sign), so couldn't try the food. The ale was okay, and the pints a reasonable price for the area.

First pint and light lunch following lock down , well organized , with clear signs and all necessary policies and procedures in place inside and outside with plenty of hand sanitizers .

Fantastic service and Sunday roast was the best value for money in town... highly recommend

Brilliant night with George Michael

An excellent night in the Green Man with TenTonneSka!

Great pub a bit noisy for us old gits.🙂

Good staff, relaxed atmosphere.

Lots of screens for sports, weekend entertainment and good selection of drinks

My friend and I were really looking forward to seeing elvis as we saw George Micheal last time. It was horrendous we could not even see Elvis as there were too many people in the pub people were standing on the dance floor, this was only at 830 people were so drunk pushing into you we felt so intimidated. There were no bouncers on the door if a fight broke out we would not have had a chance to get out. Such a shame we had to leave. We were outside and other ladies were saying exactly the same

Absolutely marvellous pub yo eat & visit. The food is beautiful, menu different. We had burgers & chips. The choice is clasdic, spanish, french. Cheese chips are generously covered in chips. Even the lime & soda has the above amount of lime cordial. The 2 ladies serving are efficient & knowledgeable of the menu. Enough so I overheard them describing to a customer how an item on menu was cooked. Beautiful & warm. Spotlessly clean. Love visiting The Famous Green Man.

I can't write my review from a restaurant point of view as we did not eat here. We were there for an Elvis tribute night. What a party atmosphere, the place was packed when we arrived and "Elvis" was belting out the tunes. A mixtures of ages from people in there 20's up to 50 plus and every one was dancing and mixing really well. The bar staff where friendly and very quick as they were serving a lot of people. Great place to go when there is a tribute act.

Great experience staff members very pleasant and friendly

Hi there.John ,I could have gone to 5 But flashing fairy lights let you down .lol

Nice pub and good food . With tina and kay.

Lovely food, great atmosphere and Amazing owner.

The food was delicious and plentiful. The service was friendly fun and prompt. Good value all round.

Good beer in a friendly local pun

Well positioned in the centre of Ewell with plenty of seating including outside. Very friendly and good food and drink. I am not a pub person regularly but this would be the one i would choose in Ewell, judging from my visits and the view of many others

After not visiting the Green Man for several years I decided whilst visiting Ewell village that I would make a point of stopping here for lunch. In the past the green man had been a great place for home-cooked high quality pub lunches, busy and thriving at lunchtimes. Although the decor was different than previously remembered and not exactly pub-style I pursued with the idea of having lunch here. We should have realised straightaway that it was a different place now, when we walked as there was a lack of staff and people in the place. The food ordered for lunch was arrived and pretty disappointing and not what I would call home-cooked food, more microwaved and packet food. I did mention to the waitress that one of the dishes really wasn’t great when she came to collect the plates, (only a small amount had been eaten) to which she replied ‘Oh’. In my opinion the pub needs to hire a proper pub chef to cook the classic dishes offered, which will encourage patrons back. Sorry guys, I think you know you need to do it all a bit better, probably recognising you’re struggling and perhaps respond to the advice thats given on trip advisor, and I don’t mean just mine.

Lovely pub, friendly service and great selection of beers and spirits plus outside seating with heaters for these forthcoming chilly nights!!

Typical village pub with all the usual fare.it is well run friendly and in a good setting in and out.

opět klasický anglicky pin.dražši.ale.skvely jidlo

We had a charity event at The Famous Green Man where the chef prepared a bar-b-que. There were many choices available. The Chef pointed out his specialty Paella and it was certainly worth having. Hope he has it on the menu again.

Reasonable vegan burger bit no vegan cider or dessert.

This will be the 1st and last visit to this pub for lunch in my opinion. We ordered a jacket potato with cheese and beans and for drinks we had 2 j20’s the total came to £21.10 which at after sitting down for 10 mins with our drinks it clicked that we had been overcharged by £4 which they did kindly refund us. when the potatoes arrived, I thought they had split a large jack potato and spread it across 2 plates as the portion was raver small. It looked like the whole thing had been re microwaved and the taste wasn’t anything special. However it was nice sitting in the bear garden which virtually had to ourselves, should of looked at trip advisor first maybe and then our expectations wouldn’t of been high.

Great place and brilliant staff

Very quiet but still a good place to visit.

Great location. The pub is quite nice but i found the atmosphere quite strange. The staff are quite nice. This is for sure a locals pub. Nice beer selection.

Nice pub to sit outside in the middle of the village to watch world go by. Sense pub has a strong element of regulars which says good things about the pub but left us feeling like we were crashing someone else's party.

Great pub to hang out and catch up with old friends.

Nice food and attentive service.

Okay but 2.30pm is cut of time for Food dont Tell you!

Interesting green beer from Stonehenge Brewery

Great pub and we had a fab time music was great and we laughed danced chatted all night long.

Called in for lunch yesterday (Tuesday 19/03/19) to scout the place out for a large family celebration meal. The attitude of the bar staff was appalling - we asked if they were serving food and were told to hurry up and order- the cook then came out of the kitchen and glared at us. The place was empty and that does not surprise me with that welcome! We ordered a burger and chips & fish and chips - simple enough you would think. The burger was raw and the fish grey in colour and tasted disgusting. Returned the food to the bar and needless to say we will not be returning. Will be advising family,friends and locals to avoid this place at all costs.Had to give this one star or could not submit - it certainly doesn't deserve one star.

Always good to go to he Green Man . Very friendly atmosphere and good drinks x

Nice English pub with good beers and reasonable priced food

Nice local. Staff friendly. Menu looked good although weren't serving food while I was there. Very nice glass of Shiraz.

Best pub ever! Great vibe, always friendly. Owner run and managed*****

Great value for money, friendly staff , nice atmosphere

Best pub by a mile in the Epsom and Ewell area, great food and brilliant staff.

Good food and beer, friendly staff

Nice atmosphere. Long been my family favourite relaxing drinking haunt. Xxx

We had a Birthday party at lunchtime there recently, the food was good and the friendly chef greeted us and made us a lovely cake. The waitress was helpful and professional too. Only 4 stars because it was quite cold in the room.

Been going to this pub fairly regularly for the last twenty years and have spent a considerable amount of money here on food etc. Cycled back here after a football tournament but really wish we hadn't bothered. My son walked in eating a packet of crisps (he only eats one brand that they don't sell) and as a result we were asked to leave after just having sat down. He is seven years old for goodness sake! Did you expect me to remove them from him? I will not be returning after this lovely South African welcome. Maybe this is one of the reasons why it was so empty on a Saturday afternoon? Amazed this is still owned by John as I know this is not usually the way he runs things.

Great pub superb burgers served after 11!
