Green Man Inn in Stafford

Visited this village pub, whilst staying in the area. My partner and I ate a 2 course meal, which is home cooked, and it was absolutely lovely. The atmosphere in the pub was lovely, jukebox playing, customers singing, but not overbearing Would definitely return if in the area

We called in and parked up in the vast empty car park at 14:15 on Saturday 9th September and to be quite honest we thought the place was closed as it was like the Mary Celeste. Anyway we went inside and found two people sitting at the bar and a lovely friendly bar lady who served us our drinks. We then sat out in the garden area in the sun and relaxed for half an hour. The place is very old and traditional. We enjoyed our visit.

Staying locally and decided to book in for Sunday lunch for a group of 8. Had 3 courses all three courses were absolutely delicious, presented nicely and huge portions, sunday dinner was beef or pork with all the trimmings. They didnt have a children's menu but we asked for smaller roast dinner for 2 children and it wasn't a problem we also asked for just ice cream for the children and again not a problem. Staff were lovely and friendly. Would highly recommend and would visit again. Wonderful little pub with beautiful surroundings!!

Horrendous pub. Charlotte the bar manager is ridiculously rude. How she has a job as a bar manager with her attitude we will never know!! Food was cold and took 2 hours. Avoid at all costs

This excellent little gem of a pub is the perfect setting to enjoy a real taste of Staffordshire country life. It’s idyllic setting tucks it away from everyday life. Nestled i. The pretty village of Milwich this lovely little hostelry boasts great draft ales and super food. It’s a real family run pub and at the heart o the village means it’s always alive with the locals. Whether it’s a teatime drink in the garden or a lovely supper, you’ll not be disappointed. The staff are super. Friendly and great customer service. EspeciallyTom. We’ve been a few times recently and have been really happy with how they manage safety and cleanliness regarding Covid. Worth a visit for some good traditional pub experience.

The Greenman proved to be a great tonic to a long and ardous day spent in Alton Towers (or more upsettingly Ceebeebies Land). We arrived at 5.00pm when it was nice and quiet......that was until the our toddler had become a little too emboldened and loud after consuming one too many fruit shoots. Elizabeth behind the bar was really good with our little lad and provided plenty of banter along with a couple of the locals. The food was great we had fish and chips and chicken tikka masala but the real revelation was the kids fish goujons which had the appearence of haute cuisine and were just as good as good as any of the adult offerings. The sticky Toffee pudding was also outstanding and there's a good selection of Ales and German beers, a couple of which I purchased to take out and unwind with after a long day in the theme park.

The perfect stopover for a family meet up. Lovely dinner in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Food was fresh and delicious.

Have been here a few times and everytime the food and service has been excellent. Visited on a Sunday for the first time and we were not disappointed, all meals were perpared fresh and extremely good quality. Fully recomend a visit, a hidden little gem and will keep on returning.

Nice and cosy pub, with great food, the best fish and chips i hav ever tried. Staff was super nice and we had a great time.

Food is excellent, there is also a very good vegetarian menu. The beer garden with a little stream is lovely for warmer weather

We went to this pub on recommendation from our B&B hosts and had a really lovely evening. Service was prompt and very friendly and we felt welcome though being just some tourists. Didn‘t have any starters but our mains (chicken and burger) were delicious. Beware to have some room left for dessert if you‘ve got kind of a sweet tooth! Chocolate fudge cake and cheesecake are both yummy. Unfortunately didn‘t get the chance to try the sticky toffee pudding the next day as we were too late for food (sundays only served til 7pm, no food on mondays/tuesdays). Whatever you choose, we are pretty sure you‘ll enjoy it 😉. All the best to Rod and Ruth and their team (and Melli and her small „rocket“).

We came to this pub by mistake. We were after a different Green Man. As it turned out the food and service were excellent and we will definitely be going back.

Lovely pub with great service. The homemade pie was delicious, and a very pleasant beer garden. Highly recommended.

We dropped our girls for an evening at Sherratts Wood scout camp and decided to stop at the Green Man for a quick tea as we were passing. What a great little find for us! Both of our meals were really tasty, lovely presented and the best 'honest' pub grub we've had in ages (there was even proper home cooked chips!). Only a small restaurant area but you can book in advance if you want to be sure of a table. I'm sure we'll be back.

Lovely lunch on a Friday for daughter,husband and grandson. We booked a table a high chair was ready and waiting We were greeted by very friendly staff. All food was fresh and tasty even a nice dressed salad. Only one tiny drawback the cutlery is large the little one couldnt manage it. Excellent service.

We had a lovely lunch at the Green Man. It is a proper village pub with character and it looked like a lovely beer garden outside. Very friendly staff and excellent service. The food is 5 star. All cooked fresh with REAL Chips and a lovely fresh salad. Excellent value for money. A great selection of real ales at the bar. Highly recommended.

This place is located in the beautiful village of Milwich which is itself worth looking around as it is very picturesque. We stopped off at the Green Man for some lunch and were not disappointed. My husband enjoyed fish and chips and I had a chicken wrap with chilli sauce. The portions were enormous, the chips were homemade and the chicken wrap was the best I had ever tasted (warm and melt in your mouth with red onions and a delicious hot sweet sauce). The staff were very friendly and the drink prices were very reasonable indeed. We will be back!

We have never been here before..7 adults.....Very nice indeed.....food very good...very fresh and tasty....good menu choice ....place traditional....nice log fire...nice and warm in there on a cool day....lovely helpful staff.....place where eating is small....every body happy with every thing....loo's nice and clean.....must say the Menu shown in photo's is not what we saw/had.....its changed..food not much change..but prices look different might be wrong be we did not see the meal deals..but it was good value....would we go again yes and hopefully we will soon....

We had the pleasure of having Sunday lunch here last week, Beautiful Roast Beef and Turkey and plenty of it, served lovely and hot with propper roast potatoes and homemade gravy and Yorkshire Puddings, a lovely selection of fresh vegetables including delicious Cauliflower Cheese. I would challenge anyone to find a better Sunday lunch in Staffordshire.

The Green Man is quite small, has a very good large beer garden and a very good small restaurant. Parking is good, the location is in the small beautiful rural of Milwich. The Green Man also does good stone baked pizzas for takeaway.

This village pub is not only surviving it has a charm all of its own, when I first went in over 50 years ago it had sawdust on the bar floor, that's all gone, and now a good choice of real ales, to go along with the delicious meals on offer, our relations on Friday thought it was excellent and will return.

I have had the pleasure of staying with family in the little village of milwich where you will find the green man inn, this is a beautiful little village pub where you will be made to feel very welcome by the locals, they have a large selection of craft ales along side there regular drinks, we are here on Saturday evening an the food was fantastic, very tasty and presentation of food is as good as Michelin star restaurants, the pub is clean and tidy with ample parking to front and rear, out back is a fantastic and large lawned area with lots of picnic tables , the surrounding area is breath taking with a lovely church and country walks.

A nice local pub that offers good quality food at sensible prices. It was very busy, but service was good and the atmosphere was cosy and friendly. It was nice to engage in a bit of banter with the locals seeing out the end of the day at their favorite watering hole. Overall a pleasant dinner in a quiet village atmosphere.

Second meal this week at the green man first was Sunday lunch which was lovely and tonight brilliant 4 adults 3 children every meal different and all spot on, Thankyou The green man top notch ,.

Simon is an amazing chef - this food is way, way above average. The steaks are to die for - the best i've ever had if i'm honest and i've had a lot in my time and aren't easliy please ! Also very reasonably priced. Definitely worth going.

I just had a fillet steak cooked blue and it really was the best I’ve eaten. Juicy, succulent and smooth as butter. Always great food here though, and the pub has won Staffordshire Rural Pub of the Year again (any more awards from CAMRA and they’ll need to build a new wall to put them on) so you can guarantee the beer is the best. Looking for a lovely country pub with great beers and wines and fabulous food? And s garden with a steam running through it for a nice sunny evening? The Green Man ST180EG.

Congratulations to The Green Man Milwichf or providing a superb dining menu, with wines and beers of an excellent quality.

Visited the green man with family for a meal. We had fantastic food and great draught beer. Highly reccomended.

End of a walk. Garden Is magical such a lovely spot. Food throughly good and the beer exceptional. Would like to taste your vegi burger next visit.

Took my Dad here for lunch today! My fault but in a bit of a rush but Dad had leek and potato soup and I had the homemade black pudding and haggis Scotch egg which was without doubt the best Scotch egg I have ever had! Fasf, friendly and faultless service and food and in and out in the 30 minuets that we had! So good that booked Sunday lunch there so a more leisurely visit. Beer in great condition too reported Dad after his Wainwrights, sadly I had to go non alcoholic as the driver but great range of soft drinks too!

As we walked in to the Green Man we realised that we had found a real country pub. Not a trendy bar cum restaurant or an upmarket place full of people in search of haute cuisine.

Met up with friends here last night and we all enjoyed a great night! A packed village pub, roaring fire, friendly staff behind and in front of the bar, a fine pint of Bass ( or 2) and probably the best meal I have had here! The belly pork was SO good and were the fish and chips, scampi, macaroni cheese and sausages. We all left having had a really good night. I live nearby thankfully and great to see a local village pub thriving on all accounts!

New menu looks amazing will be back to try some of these. Never been disappointed in the meals yet.........

You definitely need to try the food at the Green Man - Simon is doing a fantastic job and the food is superb. The steak last night was one of the best i've ever had and we'll be back asap.

Visitamos el hombre verde debido a su clasificación de tripadvisor y no me decepcionó. Los aperitivos estaban muy bien presentado y muy rico. Filetes estaban cocinadas a requerimiento y estaba buenísimo. Uso salsa cremosa era un poco demasiado y no el uso de la ponche destacado sabor. Comer aquí.

Habíamos ido a ver a Rod y Ruth por algún tiempo, pero nos dieron una bienvenida fantástica. Simon está ahora haciendo la comida, pero tiene el mismo talento como Ruth por sirve deliciosa comida a un precio justo. Buena opción tanto en el menú y las cervezas. No será demasiado largo antes de llamar de nuevo.

Ruth cooks the best Sunday lunch! The Sunday dinners are amazing... none of this carvery crap that's been sat under...

Como en puerta cierra otro columpios abierto abierto. Ruth tiene por desgracia tuvimos que parar de cocina pero tiene manos las riendas al hijo de Simon y la comida va de fuerza a la fuerza! Increíble relación calidad-precio y tipo en permitiendo que Papá la...

Se reunió con amigos en el Greenman ayer. El personal era muy amable y servicial! Todos decidimos optar por "Carne" y no nos decepcionó. Hermosa carne, patatas fritas y ensalada muy bonito precioso - regados con un buen vino tinto! ¡volveremos! (El cocinero era precioso...

Our Thursday Luncheon club met at our local G/M today and we have to rate it very good.We all had varying choices and all were served in very acceptable time, the quality was good,the taste was good and for 9.75 for two courses it has to be a winner.Service of drinks and food was done with a smile and the chef came to us after the meal to check our expectations had been met.

What a delight this little oasis really is.....a real country pub with a friendly welcome and a good selection of ale. Pop in at midday on Sunday for a welcome bonus of some freshly prepared fare available as free bar food! Lovely if you're fresh off The Chase and you park up the bike for a nice livener!

As a youngster 30 plus years ago!!!This was one of our favourite "Local" haunts so I thought I'd call in to see whether anything had changed.The deserted car park should have served as notice. The landlord was hardly welcoming, going through the motions at best.The drinlks were fine and reasonably priced. Whilst I didn't expect the landlord to be grateful for our custom, a smile and a friendly welcome ought be the minimum requirement........particularly when we were the only people in the pub.May well leave it another 30 years before I go back and on the evidence of the welcome I'm sure the landlord won't lose any sleep zzzzzz

Family run village pub with excellent menu, brilliantly presented and cooked. Definitely way above average pub grub at very reasonable prices in a welcoming friendly atmosphere.Good beer as well.

So good to have the restaurant reopened. We have enjoyed two excellent meals so far. Great service and a lovely atmosphere as well as good beer. What more can you ask for?

We're regular visitors to this great country pub and have never been disappointed. The restaurant reopened this week with a new chef and the food was all home made and gorgeous. King prawn and chorizo skewers, paprika chicken with chilli jam, beef red wine and Stilton pie - all wonderful. There's a very wide choice of vegetarian food too including goats cheese and sweet potato kebabs, stuffed peppers, sweet potato and courgette fritters which were all delicious. Rod Ruth and family have run the pub for 26+ years and have awards from CAMRA lining the walls so you know the real ale is the best available, plus a specials board of craft ales and lagers from America and U.K., and a full menu of Bavarian beers. There's always an open fire blazing in the cold months and when it's warmer there's a big garden with a stream and lots of benches and tables to eat and enjoy the sunshine. A footpath runs from the garden and walking books / maps are sold in the pub. It's amazing that a small friendly village pub can have so much for everyone.

The food here is amazing. Went as a group of four, service was excellent and the food was divine. Lots of vegetarian choice which makes an excellent change and a good variety. The value was excellent. Highly recommended. We will be back

This pub just off the beaten track on the right hand turning down Sandon Rd, just after Sandon Hall is a little community gem.Serves lovely hearty food, the Veggie con carni with salad & Doritos was nice, the tomatoes soup starter was lovely hot & tasty & my gammon with chips, peas & salad was filling, very enjoyable.Had 4 real ales & 4 ciders available.

Excellent food and drink, great meals big portions I didn't really have room for a pudding but I was being greedy! Then fudge cake was incredible an so was the treacle sponge that my husband had! If your in the area you really need to try it! Ring first to see if they are doing food as they don't do food every day not sure which days they don't cook, it's a traditional pub with lots of real ales, my husband said the beer tastes good he said it's a quality pint, so we really recommend this little gem of a pub!

I have been drinking at this village pub all my life! I often see the food being taken to tables and wonder why I do not eat there myself. The other night 4 of us went and were treated to an excellent meal! Hunters chicken, macaroni cheese, whitebait as a main and prawn tagliatelle! Ruth does the cooking- excellent quality home cooking and amazing value! Spoilt for choice! Rod pulls the pints- Bass as excellent as ever and Wrekin pale ale as a guest! A family run pub that ticks all the boxes and can never understand why it isn't busier!

Great choice of beers. A proper pub with real fire, good food and village atmosphere. Pleasant outside garden and plenty of parking.

Just returned from our Villa in Spain, arrived home hungry with no shopping in, so we thought we would give the local a try for their menu. The food was absolutely fantastic. We had a very good bottle of wine very reasonably priced, we both had the haddock, chips and mushy peas. You would find it very difficult to find better anywhere! You must give it a try you won't be disappointed.

Good old fashioned pub, gardens, festivals. Good small restaurant. Very popular locally and in the area. Very popular with families and walkers.

Most likely the only place in the world where you can get great food, excellent beer and a traditional landlord to serve you!

This small pub is a bit old fashioned and dated and has a small, un- exciting selection of real ales.The food is very good quality and easily one of the better quality pubs around Staffordshire for food.

Lovely traditional village pub with friendly locals. Rod really looks after his beer "Best Bass around" they also have several guest ales on at any one time. The food is lovely and all home made by Ruth, her pies are the best and the steak and kidney pudding is to die for. Friday night specials are really good value a different one every week.

As one of the few remaining genuine village pubs serving excellent ales and good honest home-cooked evening meals, I would challenge anyone to find a better Steak and Ale pie at such a sensible price.

We visit the green man regularly and it's always a great pub , everyone is so friendly and the meals are fantastic and the beer is always good ! I can't recommend this pub enough they also have bands on some nights and host a music festival in mid July .

Best Sunday lunch ever, the food is always amazing food is always served piping hot, with great presentation, having been there a few times for Sunday lunch, as my husband said the beer is great there, it's an old village pub, it's a lovely atmosphere, especially when the fire is lit, Booking for Sunday lunch is essential, as they only cook so many, you won't be disappointed with the food here,

A great British village pub, good beer, superb food at sensible prices, we will definitely return for more!

What a great village pub this is. We went for Sunday lunch, and the place was buzzing with locals in for a lunchtime drink - and whilst most of the people in there were clearly regulars, it didn't feel cliquey and the atmosphere was welcoming.The place is CAMRA good beer guide listed and the beer didn't disappoint. The dining space is quite small but the food was spot on and good value. It isn't a chain pub, so the meals were homemade proper pub grub. Good portions and all very tasty.We didn't use it but there also looked to be a nice beer garden round the rear of the pub.This is the kind of proper community pub that so many villages seem to have lost - long may it prosper, we'll certainly return!

Living in Stoke, we have a choice of numerous restaurants nearer to home but always head to The Green Man when possible.Ruth always produces excellent meals with curry and fish and chips the favourites. Always excellent well kept ales and at the moment the only pub I know that sells Blue Moon.

Call me biased but born and bred pretty well in this pub and have been coming here for more years than I should have! Went in for a drink early doors last night and had one of the best pints of Bass ever! Food looked good and good crowd of locals in with friendly banter! A gem just like The red Lion up the road! Thank God there are still proper pubs like these left!

Great beer, great food and great company what more do you want from a night out. Even a hearty good bye from the landlord, the big food pubs and restaurants need to visit The Green Man and see what quality food and service is all about. I had a meal out on Monday Night in a cold restaurant with slow service, paid £9.00 for three scallops starter and couldn't wait to leave, however I didn't want leave the Green Man last night, we ill be back soon.

Simply the best pint of Bass to be found locally. A tradition pub, with warm and friendly people. Will return again soon :)

Mid week and they were very busy in the food stakes!So popular that all the savoury pie dishew were gone. Decent home cooked lasagne with chips, followed by sticky toffee pudding.Friendly vibe and enjoyable and very reasonably priced.

This quiet backwater in Staffordshire deserves a few visitors, or should I say, "a few visitors deserve to a treat"The beer is very well kept, the atmosphere is congenial to a quiet country pub where you can either eat in the restaurant or the bar. Everyone is welcome, kids and well behaved dogs included. In the summer it is pleasant to sit out in the garden and in the winter to be in n tmosphere helped by a warm fire and warmer welcome.Rod and Ruth are a good team able to cater for large numbers in a quiet way. The locals are friendly and will not stare at you!

we were not even sure where Milwich was, when invited to friends special birthday meal. From the outside the pub looked clean and tidy but small, it was a shock on going in to find that although each part of the pub was quite small, it kept going back and that there were in fact threee distinct areas, The dining room was intimate, but as we were all one party, that was fine. The food was outstanding, home cooked well presented and just so much better than we could have imagined. The service was excellent, and although we will probably not venture that distance on a dark wintry night, we are already planning to revisit in the spring and will be telling all our friends just how good it is.

We've been eating at the Green Man on a fairly regular basis for several years and love it! This is a real country village pub serving some excellent real ales. We've got to know Rod who obviously cares passionately about the quality of his beer and always seems to have an interesting guest bitter or two on offer. The pub has won several CAMRA awards over the years.But it is Ruth's cooking that is the clincher for us. Whenever Jan doesn't feel like cooking she'll say "Shall we pop over to the Green Man for a meal tonight?" and I never need to be asked twice! The menu contains a good selection and there is always something chalked up on the specials board. Now this is not 'fine dining'! But we love the food. Everything is prepared by Ruth and home cooked to order. Whether it's a steak (supplied by Sargeants at Bramshall), a homemade pie, a fish dish or a curry we know that it has been cooked and not 'pinged' in a microwave. We enjoy sitting in the bar especially in the winter with a proper coal fire burning in the fireplace. But you can sit in slightly more formal style in a small room just off the bar. Wherever you sit I'm sure you'll have a great night out

A great local, excellent food and a great selection of real ales..

My friend suggested we call in to her local for a bite to eat. I was sceptical when I rocked up...the place was busy with drinkers, not diners, and the restaurant is pushed to the back of the pub in a slightly soulless room.Thankfully my initial impressions were proved completely wrong - the home cooked food was truly memorable. It was simple British pub grub but executed terrifically...I guess you'd probably describe the cooking as home-style, made with real passion and without any daft pretentious touches which would've been out of character with the setting. My pie was utterly delicious and everything on the plate was home made. I scoffed the lot!Can't recommend this place highly enough for simple and honest home cooking. My beers were superb too...well kept and both ales I tried were tasty. This place is a real find!

My family and I went to the Green Man on the evening of 6th November for their fireworks display - NO CHARGE FOR THIS !!! The place was absolutely heaving but the people behind the bar coped well and were very friendly. The beer, a choice of four real ales was in superb condition and the food served was very, very good and high quality. We have also visited the Green Man in the past simply for an evening meal. The menu is imaginative, the food is high quality, the portions generous and the prices are good. The wine list is also good for such a small village pub. The Curry Club on Thursday night provides a curry for a fiver - I fiver - I ask you ! It is also worth checking out the Green Man website - greenmanmilwich.com.
