The Green Man in Lichfield - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Local specialties, served in a location where time stands still. Friendly staff, impeccable service, more than generous portions, divine taste. I will come back anytime without hesitation, I recommend without hesitation. Well done, keep it up.

Fantastic place friendly place enjoyed my pink in there thank you so much for letting my park on your pub car park over night as I had a BBQ at the house next at Richard green thank 🙏 you

I popped in for a solo lunch today and it was lovely! I sat in the bar area enjoyed an incredible steak sandwich with a side of chips and wow! It was delicious!! Had to have a coffee, which was also wonderful, to keep myself from falling asleep after over indulging on the food! Despite a couple of bigger tables in the dining area I didn’t have to wait long at all for my food A really great experience with a friendly atmosphere and helpful team. Will be back again soon 😊

Disappointing all round. The food quality was poor to average, very rowdy atmosphere with a hint of cannabis smoking coming in from the back door. The service was nothing special so was surprised to see that they had already put a £16 non-optional tip onto the bill total, whether you thought the service and food was tip worthy or not.

Lovely stop-off enroute to Wales from Norfolk. Coffee and food were delicious, especially the pork pie. The pub is very stylishly decorated, including the toilets! Lots of parking, perfect for our motorbike.

Attended this beautiful rural pub for an Ascot Ladies’ Day and was spoiled the whole Day! The set dinner was impressive with each course cooked to perfection. The pub itself has been tastefully renovated and the outdoor areas lend themselves to lazy days in the sun, lounging, grazing and enjoying some drinks with friends and family. Loved it so much, I returned the very next day with my family. The children were kept busy with swing tennis and football outside while we tucked into the melt in your mouth pan fried Fillet of Beef - worth every penny! We look forward to sampling the Sunday menu and wish the owners and management team the very best of luck with this gem of a pub.

Fantastic food. Lovely staff. Great atmosphere. Visited family for dinner and it was such a breath of fresh air to eat top quality, memorable food at the Green Man vs. London’s generic and overpriced pub scene. Well done!! Wish we could have this quality back at home and can't wait to come back!

Six of us visited The Green Man today. We had a warm welcome, was waited on by a lovely young lady, food was superb, even though we had a bit of a wait as it was very busy, it was worth waiting for. Delicious Fish and Chips, Pie and Club Sandwich. Would highly recommend a visit to this lovely Pub!

Excellent meal staff friendly couldn’t fault service

Lovely village pub with great food!!

Had the most amazing roast dinner! My boyfriend had lamb, I had the mushroom Wellington. For starters we had Parmesan asparagus and duck pastrami. Everything was amazing including the service, price, and drinks. Would highly recommend thank you for a lovely afternoon!

Popped in The Green Man for a quick drink and lunch. The food was great and we can recommend the TGM club sandwich. The weather was lovely so we were able to sit outside in the beer garden. Definitely be returning.

Enjoyed a great drink in the excellent garden ...

Couldn’t rate The Green Man highly enough, the food, the atmosphere, the staff… simply awesome and 20 out of 10. I’d love this to be my local!

This is our third visit and definitely won't be our last. We made a change to our booking time at the last minute and as a party of 7, appreciated this isn't always easy to accommodate. The staff were very helpful and obliging. Everyone enjoyed the food, wine, ambience, and service with a smile as always. Beautifully presented meals. The rear outdoor area has been done since our last visit, and that was impressive. It will be lovely in the summer to have a drink outside.

Had a first class Sunday roast along with a friendly efficient service we will be back again and would highly recommend

We had 2 adult Sunday roasts, which were lovely and very generous with the portion size. The food is locally sourced and beautifully presented. We had our children with us and what's great about The Green Man is the options. Their normal children's menu (which is very lovely and reasonably priced) is still available or there is the option to have a half size of one of the roasts. So something for all taste buds. To finish we had wonderful desserts - which in the words of our children "best puddings ever" The service is excellent and the atmosphere is lovely. Can't recommend enough and will be visiting again soon.

Absolutely superb. Historical coaching inn in a Staffordshire village, beautifully refurbed. Fabulous, locally sourced food. Amazing Thai chicken curry - beautifully presented and so delicious - good plateful, too.

Went for a quiet night drink.. pub refurbished & looking Very Good . Food Looked & smelt lovely (was curry night ..Thursday) But we had eaten before we went out ........... worth a visit here

Very nice place Lovely staff Great outdoor area

Called in for lunch on Saturday and what a gem of a pub! The food was absolutely excellent. You can really tell everything is home made. Service was really great, the staff were really friendly and attentive, we couldn’t have had a better experience. We were also informed it was independently owned as well which we didn’t realise as we’re not from the area, it’s so refreshing to go somewhere that’s not a chain and to support an independent business. Can’t wait to go back when next over this way!

I booked a large table for my family for an 80th birthday celebration 2 months before the event, and was told I would need to pay a deposit and someone would get back to me, but heard nothing for weeks. This was the first problem, since having not been contacted for this I was worried our booking was not secure and it took several voicemails and an email to prompt a response. There was no apology given for this inconvenience. I should have heeded the red flag and looked to eat elsewhere, but alas... On the day there were further issues. On arrival I was told our booking of 16 was too big for the restaurant and we had been split across two smaller tables. We said this was unacceptable and the staff suddenly found a way to extend one table to accommodate all of us, which to my bemusement fit very comfortably along the wall and caused no obstruction at all. Bizarre. Next, the very limited lunch menu we were presented was not the same as any of the menus on the website. You can call this false advertising if you like, and I certainly would, especially considering my partner and I are vegan and the only option on the website - roasted beetroot with squash - sounded very nice and this safe bet was the reason I booked for us in the first place, but all that was available to us on the day was a mushroom burger (I can't eat mushrooms) and a "superfood" salad with optional added butternut squash. This might not seem so bad, but the meal that was handed to us was frankly insulting: a huge bowl of lettuce with a few bits of tomato, cucumber and onion, a sprinkle of pumpkin seed and a paltry amount of watery dressing. Oh, and they didn't have any squash so this was substituted with a few slivers of grated carrot!! Superfood salad should have things like quinoa, avocado, broccoli, nuts and pomegranate. What we got was close to rabbit food and was so bland and insubstantial I couldn't even finish it and had to eat again when I got home to fill me up. If this is what you're serving vegans in 2024 you seriously need to have a word with your chef. When it came to dessert we were then told one of the two main options (which weren't just gelato or cheeses) wasn't available as they were still setting in the fridge. Guys, this table was booked over 2 months ago and you're seriously this under prepared? The staff awkwardly told us it's because everything is made fresh, they're short staffed and things hadn't been done in time but given the notice ahead of this booking I find this unacceptable. None of us would have cared if the dessert had been prepared the day before but instead you opted to give us further disappointment. My only dessert option was a couple of scoops of vegan ice cream but at this point I thought it foolish to expect anything more exciting than this. The restaurant was not busy at all during our visit and yet despite the very polite waiting staff doing their best we felt like an afterthought throughout the meal. It is very fortunate that we were in good spirits for the occasion and that my two grandparents - whose birthday it was - thoroughly enjoyed their food, otherwise I would have been asking for money off the bill. They had a lovely time which is what matters most to me, but personally I thought it was a big disappointment.

What an amazing find! We went on a Tuesday night, family of 7. The food was exceptional. We had olives and various mains/desserts. The pork belly and scallops were off the charts, my nephews all had a pizza each. My husband had fillet steak which was cooked to perfection. My sister in-law both had the mini dessert and a passionfruit cocktail. The waitresses were super lovely and all in all a wonderful place. I would highly recommend!

Went for another quiz night and was fabulous, as always

Went for lunch today - absolutely fabulous 👌 food was excellent. Great menu. Portions huge. Would definitely recommend. Love the bar area too with log burner. Food was not too quick at coming out but that's because it was all freshly cooked and actually was very busy for a Wednesday lunch time, but absolutely worth the wait and great to just relax and not be rushed. Triple cooked chips were delicious and huge (easily shareable) pudding was delicious too. Fabulous place love all the attention to detail. Beautifully designed and decorated. Love the beams and log burner, lovely county pub, the village is very lucky to have such a fantastic pub on their doorstep. Can't say anything negative at all. Well worth a visit x

I visited the Green Man pub this evening with my partner and two friends. The recent facelift has truly transformed the place while preserving its old-world charm. Not only does the pub retain its character, but the delicious food and fantastic customer service make for an unforgettable experience. We had the Scotch Eggs and Seafood Selection for starter and steaks, duck leg and vegetarian cannelloni for mains. Beautifully presented dishes using locally sourced ingredients all added to our exceptional experience. A must-visit for anyone looking for a taste of history with a modern twist! Highly recommend!

The Green Man a dog welcome pub, amazing place the staff are very welcoming and helpful. They have a beautiful restaurant area seperate to the bar area, seating in the bar is very nice and comfortable. The food is lovely and well presented, a must try. I had the fish finger sandwich with a side of chips.... fantastic. Good selection of ales and largers and looks like they are building a garden area to the rear, bring on the summer. Thank you to the staff for making us all welcome and see you soon. TJH

Tried the pressed pork and scallops, seemed an odd combination but it was amazing! Try it you won't be disappointed. Great service and very friendly staff

Great work refurbishing the pub. It’s now cosy and inviting. The food is delicious and well worth a visit 😍

Fabulous place for great food at a reasonable cost, good selection of beers or vino. Food is fabulous.

Superb food. Steaks cooked to perfection. Beautifully refurbished 16c coaching inn. Friendly service. A must for lunch or dinner (after 5).

Great steaks, wonderfully cooked. Friendly staff. A real gem. Will be back for more.

Well for one thing they gave us the philosopher Epictetus who, over 2000 years ago, said " A man cannot step into the same river twice as he is no longer the same man neither is it the same river" , emphasing life being constant change. This is like going back to the Greenman, you want it to be the same as you remember but it's not, it's changed, it's got even better! How can this possibly be! ? Well for one thing it's only been open for less than 100 days and in that time the management and staff have built and maintained a brilliant "dining out" experience, one that stays in the memory long after the cost is forgotten.  And another is the more times you return the more you become better acquainted with the individuals I speak of. You start to feel part of the place and know you can trust in them to always let you leave having had an memorable time and with a great sense of belonging to a rural community not an anonymous chain. But sadly it's also true that there are people who may not make that connection and therefore find some aspect of their experience not to their liking. Regrettable for them however that's life. And what of the next 100 days? Let me leave you with this; "No great thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig, I answer that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen.” ― Epictetus

2nd visit to this lovely pub. Food is gorgeous. The sticky toffee pudding is to die for. Staff really attentive and friendly. Wonderful and cozy dinning area. Looking forward to further visits

Wow! What a fabulous place this is. Our second visit . Once again food was absolutely gorgeous. Sticky Toffee pudding to die for. Staff attentive and friendly. Really lovely dinning area. Can highly recommend a visit

Only ever leave reviews if it’s beyond good or not good at all! This was beyond good .. Sunday roast! The BEST … second time we have been now and couldn’t fault it - took extra family with us this time and you’ve impressed them as much as us! Staff are lovely! Only thing I would say is would love option of custard with sticky toffee pudding. This place is now our new favourite! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Visited for the first time today as a group of six to celebrate Mother’s Day. Lovely atmosphere in a traditional pub that’s been sympathetically renovated. We had service with a smile, the food was outstanding, and overall good value for money. I’d heard great reviews, and was delighted our visit lived up to expectations. Thrilled to have such an excellent pub so close by.

We celebrated my partners birthday at this very quaint village pub. We were a large party and they managed to fit us in. We found The service to be really good and the food was absolutely 10/10. We will definitely be visiting again and would have no hesitation to recommend to all our friends and families.

Excellent. Interesting menu. First rate service. I will go again.

Having been twice in recent months the food is GREAT. A smaller menu with perfected items. Good beer!

Great food and excellent selection of beers.

Sunday lunch as it should be! Fabulous food with first class service. All meals were excellent quality, hot and portion sizes were beautifully generous. Highly recommend this fantastic venue Date of visit: February 2024

Fabulous food with first class service. All meals were excellent quality, hot and portion sizes were beautifully generous. Highly recommend this fantastic venue

Great place for just a drink or a meal, great atmosphere, very friendly

The best ‘pub meal’ we’ve ever had. Standards were so much higher than we could have anticipated for a larger party size of 8. Amazing menu, perfectly executed, tasted delicious, with brilliant service to add. Thank you, we love visiting our new ‘local’.

Most people have times in their lives when they feel like my piece of last Saturday nights cod at the Greenman - well and truly battered! But they also know they'll get over it and eventually feel better. Unlike my piece of cod that couldn't be bettered. Fine white chunks of fish coated in beer batter. Not just any old beer but draught Bass, what could be better? Served with proper chunky chips followed by sticky toffee pudding I just knew I had just put on ten pounds by the time I left. But who cares? It's the middle of Winter we all need comforting food and this is it. Go try it! And when you do give a moments thought to the Atlantic trawler men out there in freezing rain also getting battered and everyone else involved in the food chain bringing you this nourishing piece of picean heaven and you have to agree it's worth every single penny.

Absolutly fantastic! My partner and I visited last night for the first time, lovely feel about the place. Very busy for a Wednesday which was a positive sign. Staff - excellent! Food - excellent. We both had the Ribeye steak which was delicious, the cheesecake was amazing and we cannot wait to return. Definitely recommend! 10/10 from us.

Excellent in every respect, food, service, ambience. Loved it and so happy to have this on our doorstep. We have already booked our return visit and am sure we will become regulars! Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

The Greenman in Clifton Campville is seriously upgraded and looking fab! The vibe is great, staff are top-notch, and the food is like a fancy restaurant sneaked into a pub menu - and yes the quality matches the menu! A must-visit for a laid-back yet upscale experience! It’s brought a much needed social pulse back into the village and I for one am here for it! Fully recommend to friends, family and beyond.

My first visit to this pleasant pub. Prices a bit above average . I felt too many tables had been crammed into the restaurant making it very noisy at times and stifling hot. Staff pleasant &helpful. Menu i felt bit limited.

Third visit to The Green Man and once again the food was excellent. Jack and his team are doing a wonderful job in making this country escape into a warm and welcoming place for food and drink. If you haven't been to The Green Man yet, then you are certainly missing a treat! Highly recommend!

The food was exceptional aswell as the staff. Will certainly be dining here again!

Lovely setting, staff, decor and absolutely delicious food. Best mushroom soup I have ever tasted in my life! Tagliatelle was beautifully present and so tasty. Thoroughly recommend the Rare Malbec wine. Can’t tell you how good this place is for food and I can’t wait to go back again!

Cracking pub and worth travelling for, great hospitality

Great company, amazing food, and you are made to feel very welcome. Will certainly be returning soon!

4 adults and a child for a midweek lunch. Booked online the same morning. The food was excellent - one of the best pies I think I’ve ever had. Everyone had empty plates. Service was friendly and attentive and there was a lovely atmosphere in the restaurant with about 5 or 6 other tables in for lunch.

Came for Sunday lunch and the food was devine…. I will defo be returning. If you don’t eat here I honestly think you are missing out! Staff were friendly, atmosphere was incredible and the new refurbishment is up to such a high standard!

A real rarity - a good country pub with a great atmosphere good service and superb food I would thoroughly recommend

Great place to eat and drink only the 10% service charge was a disappointment! We always tip! But don't like it added to the bill.

Food and service are great, but it's a small dining room very noisy hard to hear any conversation

Warm welcome, super staff, lovely food. Highly recommend.

We heard it had a refit and wanted to try it out what the new owners had done with the place, the re-fit was outstanding and the food was Excellent. Would recommend visiting 100%.

What a beautiful, warm and welcoming country pub! The food is exceptional! We also enjoy popping in for a drink too! Definitely recommend if you are in the area!

Gorgeous food and a lovely atmosphere. We had the steak for the main and it was perfectly cooked.

What a beautiful pub and restaurant! Friendly and welcoming and warm and cosy! Beautiful decor throughout. As for the food, absolutely delicious! The Sunday roast was exceptional! Great selection of gins and my husband also loved the pints of Timothy Taylor. We are lucky to live so close to such a gem. Can't wait to introduce it to family and friends too! Definitely a must to visit if in the area either for a drink or book a table for the wonderful food! Thank you to the whole team and see you very soon!

Christmas Day can mean different things to different people. In my case it's how can I swerve the stress of cooking a multi-course lunch for family and friends and just relax and enjoy myself on this special day? The perfect answer I have discovered is to book a table at the Green Man. And yes I was lucky enough to get seated and yes it costs more than the usual Sunday lunch but boy was it worth it! Having been a vegetarian for some decades I often find my alternative is pasta or rice, which means I don't get to enjoy the other vegetable trimmings of a "roast lunch". On the day my main of King oyster mushroom steak (with all the trimmings!) was truly manna from heaven! So I and my meat-eating friends revelled in five exquisite courses of beautifully cooked and presented food over many hours, in great company in a beautiful dining room and NO WASHING UP! Who would want it any other way? Can't wait to book for 2024, although we shall be visiting many times between now and then! Give it a try; we're sure you will enjoy it too

What a fantastic job they have done at refurbing this pub, lovely cozy bar with log burner, beautiful dining room and outside seating with new benches. We nipped in for a Sunday dinner, honestly one of the best Sunday dinners we have ever eaten, slow cooked beef brisket fell apart, gravy was really tasty, huge homemade yorky, just couldn’t fault it. The staff and new manager were really friendly, can’t wait to book again with friends.

We went for lunch the other day and OH MY GOD the food was absolutely amazing. The menu is limited but understandable for a lunch time. We could not fault the service, the food or the atmosphere. We will definitely be returning.

Delighted to say our table had yet another wonderful Saturday night at the Green Man Clifton. It was a cold and blustery night, just perfect weather for the special of steak pie and mash. We chose the very definition of comfort food, a pre-prandial of...

From arrival to leaving the pub we felt very welcome. Service was brilliant, food was exceptional as was the choice of drinks. Fire was lit and a lovely cosy pub that has been exceptionally refurbished but kept its character. Highly recommended

We visited the pub with friends lovely ambiance. The manager Jack ensured that we had great service! Lovely prawn cocktail then a perfect steak. Than you for a great night and looking forward to try the Green Man burger

Absolutely beautiful setting, food was very well presented and tasted amazing. Service from Jack, Michelle and other staff were 2nd to none. Will definitely recommend and return

Visited The Green Man for the first time last night and had a wonderful experience. Food was delicious and varied, good choice of wines - Barry our waiter made the evening with his great service. Already booked again for Sunday dinner!

Great atmosphere, amazing service, welcoming traditional village pub with a professional restaurant quality dining experience.

We’ve been without a pub for two years. The re-opening of The Green Man has been highly anticipated by us all. I can safely say we are completely and utterly spoilt in every way possible with our new local! What an absolute treat to have on our doorstep! The food is outstanding (and I consider myself a bit of a foodie, the brisket is as good as Marco Pierre Whites at the cube). The selection of drinks is excellent, there’s a real range to suit everyone, and a fantastic selection of gins and even the mixers have been well thought out, there’s a funky london essence draft tonic as well as the usuals too! The new landlord and landlady are the most lovely people who go out of their way to learn about everyone that comes over the threshold. Their training of the restaurant staff must have also been extensive as the waiters and waitresses are exceptionally polite and knowledgable. I can’t say enough good things about our new pub, the only bad thing I could possibly say is that we will have less money as a family as we go and visit and support our fantastic new local when we can as it’s such a joy to be able to do so after such a long time without! Well done Jack and family!

Fabulous food! We had a wonderful evening with excellent food and delicious wine. Service was excellent and friendly. I really recommend The Green Man.

Welcoming staff and great atmosphere. The food is absolutely lovely. Only opened a week ago and so a few teething problems with speed of service but they’re aware and would definitely return again in future!

We celebrated a friends birthday here, eating in the restaurant on a Friday night. What a difference from the Green Man of old. The new owners have beautifully restored this 16C coaching house to unlock its former glory. Many of the original features are now...

The Green Man has been totally refurbished and now boasts a superb and welcoming country pub experience with a bar warmed with log burner and comfy seating serving great beer and wine, while next door in a comfortable and nicely decorated restaurant serving excellent food. The village and local area has been crying out for this kind of local pub, and the new Green Man has not disappointed.

The pub, which only opened last week, is so wonderfully traditional and brilliantly renovated and decorated, oozes quality and is very comfortable for a meal . The meal was of the same standard - definately an independent restaurant with locally sourced quality food - and...

Incredible service and food. The menu was diverse but refined enough that everything was of high quality. Great wine recommended also!

A great dining experience at the new improved Green Man after a.major renovation and refurbishment. The food was delicious, the wine good and the staff friendly and engaging. What a chanve from when we last were there several years ago. One week open and a...

Went online to book a table for the following night... Received an email saying they would contact us within 48 hours to confirm. (Really) then another email 3 hours later to say as they had not heard from us they were cancelling our booking (really)...phoned the pub and they said it was a generetic email... so basically don't book online... very disappointing

Quintessentially the British pub every village should have! Modernised and updated without losing any of it's character or charm. In the bar, the central focus is the fireplace, keeping everyone warm and not only are you greeted by a smile but the team at the Greenman make sure the customer comes first. Wide selection of pints (photo attached) with additional guest ales on as well as a varied choice of spirits and wines. The restaurant is a lovely secluded spot perfect for a quiet bite to eat or a family get together, this pub is perfect for your sunday afternoon dinner or midweek date night. The rear of the pub also has a nice lounge area with a large TV perfect if you need to catch the football or sports! To say this is just a regular village pub is doing them a disservice and I throughly enjoyed making my way through the pints and it's fast becoming my regular pit stop. I'd recommend calling ahead for food just in case you miss out!

Excellent refurbishment creating a fantastic cosy bar and elegant country pub dining room. Excellent and efficient service, we were really well looked after. Food was spot and we will definitely be returning and bringing the family along next time.
