Green Man Pub Restaurant in North Hertfordshire

We did the breakfast with Santa for my 2 grandsons , it was so lovely from Start to finish. Lovely atmosphere , lovely food and great staff. Great Santa too :)

Very enjoyable evening with excellent food and drinks. Excellent staff as usual. Comfortable country pub, worth a visit.

Disappointing meal at the Green Man last night (Sat 7th Dec). I have been numerous times before and never been disappointed, so chose here for a meal with friends who has never been, and it was awful. The restaurant was busy, and there was a large table in but this shouldn’t affect the service & standard of food. We arrived, ordered and waited 40 minutes for the food to arrive, when the food arrived it was lukewarm, and my fish & chips tasted horrible. NOT ONE single member of staff checked back to check the food was OK, neither did we see any member of staff in our area of the restaurant to complain. When the plates were finally cleared, we were not asked “how was your meal”, just if we wanted dessert. After dessert, we waited a long time again for anyone to come, and on the end I had to go and find some to ask for the bill. When they came for payment, again we were not asked how our meal had been… Poor food, and poor service. I will not be going back, and will ensure others don’t also.

Table and surroundings were beautifully set and the whole atmosphere was first class.The staff were so friendly and helpful and obliging.To top it off the meals we had from the Christmas menu was absolutely delicious...it was well worth the price and was cooked amazingly

This restaurant is usually excellent, however the steaks we had were extremely tough, we couldn't even cut them up with the steak knives privided. Our friends, whom we treated, had fish and chips which was excellent. We complained, and the cost of the steaks was taken off of the bill. The service overall was very good, the location is excellent and it is very unusual to have a disappointing meal at this restaurant. We will go back as I hope this was just a 'one off',

Lovely birthday meal, accommodated without a booking when other arrangement fell through. Service with a smile from Tom and Sam, and lovely food. We will be back again soon!

Great balance with music volume, not intrusive. Professional staff, all looking smart.

Another super evening in the Green Man, so lucky to have this as our local. Popped in for a hot chocolate and a brownie after a chilly walk in the rain, ended up staying for dinner! Great, freshly cooked pub food, and a lovely warm welcome and smashing service from Tom behind the bar (as always!). Also enjoying the log fires and festive decorations…❤️

Always our go to place, great pub with a relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff always going that extra mile

Lunch at the green man Meal was lovely Tom very friendly and attentive Thank You

A beautiful atmosphere and very nice food service was on point,looks Very nice with the Christmas decorations will definitely be back ❤️👍

2nd visit at this pub. The Greene Man. Great Offley. Food and service (Sam) was excellent. Stunning countryside views

A good visit …table for 9…some had starters some didn’t but felt we waited a) to place our orders and then b) for the main Overall service was great and we all enjoyed ourselves!

Locals, we love it here. Lovely inclusive environment! Very modern

Lovely food and poor Tom running around like a madman as he was only one serving! He did brilliantly!

The food was delicious and the atmosphere is amazing.we will definitely be back

Excellent food and service. Sam was so welcoming upon our arrival and nothing was too much trouble. Would certainly recommend and will definitely be coming back.

Great food and great service. Tom was great!

Tom was great! Very welcoming, food was delish and lonely atmosphere

Very good food as always Sam and Tom looked after us well

Not busy, so attentive staff, food fine.

Another amazing meal at this lovely pub! Such fabulous staff who can’t do enough for you. The food was decision and we will definitely be back.

Very pleasant staff, good food, child friendly. Enjoyed my visit and would recommend a visit

Lovely food and atmosphere. Waitress Sam was excellent

Great friendly place. Staff are excellent. Food was delicious

Wow what a great pub with an equally great team ( especially Sam and Tom). Wonderful service, lovely atmosphere…we will be back 🥰🥰

A beautifully spec pub with fantastic views, amazing food and great service.

Tom was lovely and gave great service!

Amazing food and service starters for me was squid and mains was the specials of duck pie. Banging

Best roast dinner that I've had out in years!! I would highly recommend this place for Sunday lunch.

It is a large place with a pub section at the front and the restaurant at the back. Both are spacious. The restaurant area is very light, due to the glass roof.

Had a lovely visit the other week , Tom was delightful and very welcoming would definitely come again !!

First time visiting, lovely pub and food was amazing! We will be back!

Achieved all expectations. Great service and generous portions of Sunday roast...

Served by Thomas, really friendly and super helpful with my Gluten Allergy. Food was so good!!

Really lovely meal all 4 of us had a different meal with a pudding and we enjoyed it all. Will definitely return

Tom was a legend, food was bloody brilliant

Unfortunately for the first time in 10 years we’ve been let down. Obviously can’t cope when it’s busy on a Sunday. 1 hour between starter and main. Sliced the beef across the grain so it was shoe leather and only a thimble of gravy, should really offer a gravy boat to self serve. I wonder what’s changed.

Me and my mum come here for a spot of lunch, the food was amazing and the service was brilliant, thanks Tom! I will highly recommend and defiantly revisit

Friendly and relaxed service. Food was excellent, served hot and lots of options on the menu.

Had a lovely experience at the Green Man. Service was quick and friendly, and our server, Sam, was really helpful. The Buy 1 get 1 free mains was a great bonus!!

Ok venue and staff. Good prices BUT my wife had the Mushroom Pie and when she opened the pie there was absolutely nothing inside but some runny tasteless sauce. They changed the pie but the 2nd one wasn't any better. I had the Lamb Cottage Pie but what I got was a cold small leg of lamb in a dish with some mash potato and a veg gravy and some undercooked cabbage. It was hardly a traditional cottage pie which I had expected. Again we asked that my coarse was changed. The new dish was a bit hotter but tasteless. Another table of ladies near us also had cause to complain about their food. Come on chef, let's do it right please. The carpet in the hallway and stairs leading to the toilets was old, completely worn out, disgusting and filthy, yuk. The gents toilet were also disgusting. Attention to detail very lacking here in this establishment.

Good food service good was very busy.only thing on the negative side is the veg could have been done a bit longer for my liking

Food was lovely and the place was buzzing, great atmosphere, the lady who served us, Sam, was lovely updating us all the time when are food would arrive.

Had a really good meal, food was lovely and Sam our waitress was a credit to the company. Will come back with friends another day.

Great local pub, very welcoming staff, open fires, good food.

Great food and friendly service

Lovely pub! Always nice food and the gardens is lovely in the summer! Lots of parking.

Sam was incredible and very professional! Our food was piping hot, fresh and served quickly! The pub has an amazing view so we’ll be back!

Sam is lovely very friendly polite and helpful. We come most months .

Lovely meal, served by Sam, very attentive.

Lovely meal and service! Thank you

As always a great meal, service is always great, Stefan is a great server

Alison always makes us feel welcome, plenty of character. Takes the time to say hello even when we’re not in the restaurant. L

A wonderful country pub with fabulous views across multiple counties. We were served by Alison who was so kind, curtious and helpful. Highly recommended, great food with a tremendous atmosphere.

Lovely place to eat and enjoy the views! The food was excellent as usual, I cannot fault anything. The lady that waited on my friend and I was fantastic, she was very welcoming, friendly and attentive. Thank you for a great time. 💯👍🏻😊

Lovely staff, great food and a magnificent view

My dad and I have been coming here every week for a while and I cannot express how attentive Alison is. She is so polite and helpful. Cannot recommend The Green Man enough. Can’t wait to try the Christmas menu!!

Sam our waitress was excellent - attentive, helpful and very kind. The food was lovely, especially the sticky toffee pudding! We will be back

Lovely lunch. Sam looked after us well 😊

Came with my husband and friends! Not sure about the attitude of the man who served us.. there was no apology for forgetting the dessert menu but he was on his own at first so maybe if he had help it would have helped him

Fab food and service very efficient and friendly

Lovely lunch, waitress was amazing, so lovely and friendly. We will definitely be back.

Very nice servers, attentive and pleasant. First a bespectacled lady, followed by a gentleman.

Great place for a meal. Good atmosphere with welcoming, friendly and efficient staff. Always enjoy the food and will keep coming back.

Lovely staff and good food, great views as well

Brilliant food, great service brilliant atmosphere

Took my Mum here for a birthday meal, our hosts were kind, friendly and very hospitable. The food was top notch, we both chose the sirloin steak, which was cooked the way requested. If the weather was better, I would have loved to enjoy the food in the beer garden to the back.

Good location with lovely views over the countryside from the conservatory. Friendly and efficient service. Not cheap, though. Main courses were £15 to 25, starters £6 to 8, and desserts £6 to 10. Our bill was £45 each, including one bottle of modest wine and coffee to finish.

The staff that were on duty tried their best but very understaffed hence why the food and service were slow. The Beef came out eventually but cold and full of fat , thought the potatoes would fill me up but they must have been microwaved too long as the knife couldn’t cut through them. You could hear someone biting into the leeks in Hitchin, especially as the blunt knives couldn’t cut through them. Only reason it’s 2 stars because of the poor staff. Don’t know what the fuss is about with this place that’s 3 x in a row it’s been below average

Lovely breakfast in the Green Man this morning. We had the stacked pancakes and full breakfast, very tasty, would recommend. Lovely view from the conservatory.

Lovely setting with a large conservatory overlooking the valley to the north. Beautiful view while you dine. Also, an outdoor beer garden with its own bar so you don't have to keep going in and out to the main bars.

Always our favourite family pub, nice food, friendly staff and lovely ambience

Lovely lunch with a lovely friendly service :)

We had an excellent lunch on Monday. The food was good and service excellent. There was no rush and it was a lovely leisurely lunch with my Daughter. Sam and her staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Could not ask for more. See you all again soon.

We had brunch here yesterday morning, the bacon and sausage sandwiches were awesome, proper doorstep bread! The pub is lovely and the view from the conservatory is lovely, looking across the countryside. There's a good selection of tea and coffee, including decaf. The staff are friendly and helpful and the pub is easily accessible, with clean accessible toilets and plenty of parking. We'll definitely be back, the menu looked amazing and there's a good selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks available, all good!

Thomas our waiter was very welcoming and helpful answering dietary requirement questions. The food was delicious with a lovely atmosphere. We will come again!

Very nice family meal for birthday celebration- would recommend

Lovely food and experience. Great and speedy service by Tom. Will be back!!

We didn't book we just walked in on a Tuesday lunchtime for a family lunch. It was quite busy which we didn't expect but that wasn't a problem and we got a table in the conservatory area. Lovely atmosphere, relaxed, and tables are spaced so you can relax and chat without feeling you are too close to other diners. Great selection of food for every taste on the main menu and the specials, and we were asked straight away if we had any allergies etc. Service was efficient and there was no pressure to finish quickly so we could take our time. Drinks were served first and our order taken. We had plenty of time to chat and enjoy the sunshine coming in through the overhead windows with lovely views over the countryside out the back. Food was freshly cooked and good value. We enjoyed a couple of starters to share and can recommend the Scotch Egg with the runny yolk! Pork belly bites were also very good. We all had something different for our main course and finished with desert, everything was lovely. This is certainly somewhere we'll come back to as the food, friendly and efficient staff and lovely atmosphere made for a relaxed and happy lunch at a bit of a difficult time for our family. Thanks!

Excellent gluten free and vegetarian meals. Excellent service from Sam the waitress.

Lovely meal, great service and beautiful building and view over the fields out the back.

Food was lovely, view was great and Sam our waitress was attentive. Will visit again.

Cottage pie croquettes are a must! Cheese toastie was enormous, pork belly delicious. We will be back.

Waited ages to get a drink, even longer for food order to be taken. Food arrived tepid, didn’t represent the description.

Fantastic service and great quality food.

Layla squeezed us in for my dad’s birthday and she was excellent. Thanks so much
