The Green Man in Cambridge

Lovely Sunday roast as the Green Man. Great service by Lana and Maddox.

Lovely Sunday lunch, thankyou to Lana and Sara for their attentive service

Lovely meal out with friends. Food was delicious and Chloe was really attentive!

Food very good, waitress was great. Place needs a little tlc looking a bit well used in places.

We had an amazing waitress Chloe she was our host. She was really great, very friendly

Lovely staff, great service. Beautiful room. Quality meat, nice specials menu. Really fabulous latte! Car park at rear. Nice garden and dog friendly pub at one end of establishment, restaurant at the other.

Highly recommended, great service, top food and very nice atmosphere

Over priced for not much food... pizza had 2 inch crust and little toppings.. burger was average small amout of chips no side salad... £54 spent.. should of got a take away ...

Nice place Quality of food and drinks

Lovely meal but something in the seabass sauce was a little bitter. Great service and rest of the meal was delicious with good portions

El Domingo de Pascua fue nuestra tercera visita al Hombre Verde y como anteriormente la comida fue excelente. Sara nuestra camarera es muy atenta y amable. Lo que realmente me gusta es que la mesa solo se limpió cuando todos terminaron. Tuve un risotto especial de pulpo que estaba delicioso seguido de Beef Duo asado muy bueno. La mayor parte de nuestra fiesta había asado con salsa ilimitada todo bien. Nuestro nieto se comió todo su pescado con patatas fritas. El ambiente es muy bueno y me gustaría mencionar a Lana una gerente muy servicial. Finalmente volveremos pronto.

Had a great experience here. Food was delicious, the service was friendly and quick. They have parking too which is an added bonus. The decor inside is beautiful, very cozy. It wasn’t that busy either so it was a lovely peaceful atmosphere as I know it can get very busy here. Would definitely come again!

Had a lovely experience. The food was delicious, service was very friendly and quick. The decor inside is beautiful, very relaxing and cosy. Luckily it wasn’t that busy when we were there so it was a very peaceful atmosphere as I know it can get quite busy here. They also have parking available which is an added bonus. We had a great experience and would definitely come again!

Good sea food, but they expect gratuity on top of a bit expensive bill. The drinks and desert are not value for money compared to starters and mains.

Great Sunday lunch. Excellent service by friendly staff.

La misma gente es dueña del molino Brampton al que asistimos regularmente y pensamos que probaríamos el Green Man para variar. La comida es excelente, aunque sirven menos vieiras aquí en el entrante que Brampton Mill, cambié a lo que tengo normalmente y durante toda mi comida disfruté. Solo puedo dar cuatro estrellas ya que el personal no coincide con la comida. Primero fueron encantadores y muy agradables, sin embargo, las pequeñas cosas lo decepcionaron. Tal vez sea mi edad, pero si estoy pagando un buen dinero por mi comida, ¡no quiero que el personal de la casa use jeans! Puede que cuesten más que mi comida pero siguen siendo jeans. En segundo lugar, pediríamos alimentos, solo para que nos dijeran, en dos ocasiones, que ya no tenían los artículos. No hay problema sobre eso, pero cuando nos dan el menú o nos dicen el especial por favor diga lo que no está disponible, el personal de la cocina y frente de la casa necesitan comunicarse. Volveremos y la comida es maravillosa y el personal es encantador, pero necesita ese esmalte extra.

Very nice restaurant, good menu and the food was very good too.

The drinks are good, the staff friendly and the pub feels historic. Nice bar area and the courtyard is good if the weather's nice. Haven't eaten there

Great food and great service. My daughter is quite fussy but she loved everything she ate (including some of my meal!😂). I’ve been a few times and would highly recommend it.

Been here a few times and has always delivered great food and good customer service!

El restaurante era precioso el ambiente era acogedor y cómodo, los miembros del personal eran amables, rápidos y atentos, la comida era fabulosa y a un precio muy razonable sin duda volveré y recomendaría una visita a otros familiares y amigos

The quality of the food was very good but the service was incredibly slow. One of the waitresses was lovely, the other one not so great.

Great service from Sarah. Thank you

Always delightful service with Sarah looking after us ladies who come for dinner after work to put the world to rights. Thanks.

This is a pub, but also a restaurant serving a wide range of nicely presented dishes. We were there for lunch, but I'd happily go back for a dinner on a special occasion.

Always a good experience at the Green man

Another lovely meal at the Green Man! Lovely roasts and Sarah is a great host!

Lovely meal and brilliant service by Sarah

We were served by Sarah and she provided phenomenal service. She was really friendly, helpful, easy going and just had a lovely and natural manner - checking in with us but not feeling overbearing...! The food was very tasty. Everyone enjoyed the food and it was of a very high standard. The mini desserts were not that mini! (This is no complaint!) Thanks!

It’s not a pub. It’s a restaurant with a bar area, housed in what historically was a pub. As a restaurant it’s very good. The food is really excellent. The restaurant area is nice and the staff are lovely. I’d definitely recommend eating here. But as a pub, it’s absolutely rubbish. Terrible atmosphere, with loud music blasting out— the kind you’d expect to hear in a gym and obviously designed to entertain the staff rather than create a homely atmosphere in which people might want to spend an afternoon having a few pints with friends or while reading a book. Crap beer, with evident lack of enthusiasm for keeping ales. Service is hit and miss; sometimes friendly, sometimes youngsters who couldn’t care less. Never any sense of there being a landlord/lady around who is actually accountable or invested in the experience. As I say, it’s not a pub. It’s all very… New Labour. You can imagine some slick managerial type is behind it all, with no passion for running a pub, but raking in deserved profits from people coming to eat here, kitting the place out with posh seating and concentrating on a gastronomic menu. An experience aimed at the Essex Man who’ll drive his family here in their leased Audi on a Sunday and have a lovely day of it, enjoying the food, the gym music, and the European lager as the kids tap away on the iPad. And fair play to all that. It’s a restaurant. If you want to take your family out for a nice meal, have relatives or friends staying and need to provide lunch or dinner, or fancy a Sunday roast, definitely check this place out. But if you’re after a local, traditional English pub to spend a quiet afternoon, or want to go for drinks with friends, this is not it— do yourself a favour and go to the Hudson’s Ale house a short walk along the road.

A wonderful place to spend time with friends and family. My first visit was four months ago for a friend's daughter's christening party, and I was impressed by both the fantastic food and excellent service. This evening, I returned with family and friends for dinner. While the food was just okay this time, the outstanding service made the experience memorable and worth coming back to explore the menu further. Chloe, who assisted us, went above and beyond—helping me choose and reserve our preferred table and providing attentive service throughout the meal. The rest of the staff were equally polite and a pleasure to interact with. Thanks to Chloe’s hospitality, I’ll definitely be returning to find my perfect dish on the menu!

Had a roast dinner here on Sunday. Couldn’t have asked for better quality food and the service was excellent. Thank you much green man team!

Love the Green Man Cambridge, food is great, the staff is very professional and it is reasonably priced. I am a returning customer and will be coming back. Highly recommend this spot!

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.

Great food but slow service. Still would go again

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

"The best Old Fashioned I've ever had" -Anon

Had a lovely evening here for a leaving meal with 21 people they was very helpful and accommodating. Food was really nice and plenty of it :) Staff was really helpful and help with all our needs. QR codes are great for a large group of people to order drinks.

Having been to the bar/pub here before, I knew this place was a great spot however I had never been to the restaurant side of it before. The restaurant was even better than I expected and the staff were so kind and welcoming. We were there for Valentine’s Day set menu and the options were good and the food was really nice. There was an issue with one of our dishes however the staff were very quick to fix this for us and give us a new dish, so hats off to them for their hospitality. I would recommend this place for the pub or the restaurant!

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

The service was fantastic. Thanks Chloe! Yummy food. The steak and merlot pie was delicious. Friend had the lamb shank and it fell off the bone.

Thank you Chloe for a fantastic service. loved the steak and encouraging us to order extras. We would visit again. Wonderful 🥰.

We had a code so we had a free starter or sweet with each main meal. Well it wasn’t until we left hubby said it came to over £100 pounds. I said we’ve only had a main course and one drink each should not be that much. Well looked at receipt and they had changed us for things we hadn’t even had. Check your bill folks everytime.

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.

Great meal Good customer service Inviting interior Definitely recommend

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.

Fantastic food and service. Thank you Chloe for looking after our table

Very good roast dinner. Comfortable place.

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.

Amazing pub Classical Trumpington pub

Really nice place and excellent food. Service was excellent Have the steak and Malbec pie. Honestly it’s a good one

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

Really enjoyed our dinner here. Lively location and feels cosy even though its a good size restaurant.

Lovely pub with a good selection of very tasty dishes! Staff are very friendly and professional, Sarah in particular is great! We keep coming back for a relaxing and enjoyable evening, and especially enjoy the Sunday roasts!

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.

Went for a drink with friends. Lovely atmosphere. Easy parking. Will visit again.

Lovely food but could have been slightly hotter. Did not mention it as it was still good. They were also busy as had a large party in. We decided to have 2 starters each. The beef and horseradish croquettes were amazing. Will definitely be back for more of those.

I went here when I had quite a few hours to wait for my husband to have an operation. When I got there we were made to feel very welcome and my mother and I both enjoyed our meal. While there I realised that my phone only had 15% charge left and was waiting on a call from the hospital. I was leant a charger by a member of the team - that made such a difference to me as I was so worried that my phone would die before I was called.

Always are go to place for good food!

Lovely food and lovely staff. Will definitely be returning!

Had a lovely experience here yesterday, the food was well priced and delivered by friendly staff. Nothing was too much despite how busy it was. Would definitely reccomend and 100% return.

Friendly service paired with delicious food, very happy with our visit this evening

Nice menu, great food and friendly team. We will be back, highly recommend.

Michael, our waiter, was very attentive to all our enquiries and very pleasant, Sarah also. Food was very reasonable and the scallops and prawns were cooked wonderfully.

Place is lovely, good ambience always a pleasure to go to.

Always enjoy visiting the Green Man in Trumpington. It’s a cozy pub with plenty of Parking, good range of food and, of course, drinks! Very friendly service today from Sarah in the Bar. Well done guys keep it up!

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at The Green Man. The menu was wide and the price reasonable. Our waitress, Sarah, was first rate and was a credit to the management. We will definitely eat there again

Lovely experience yesterday, came for our belated wedding anniversary meal. Lovely starters, and main. My drink was delicious too. Would come back for that alone. Service good too, and the room was decorated lovely as well. Will happily return again.

We came here for our boxing day meal, unfortunately the potatoes were rock solid, the pigs in blankets came out extremely burnt and we wasn't able to eat them. The meal it self was very disappointing. The service was very slow, despite the restaurant not being busy.

We are HayLee Acoustic duo and performed at Green Man Cambridge on new year’s eve. It was such a pleasure to perform at this amazing venue - it is truly a n elegant, warm and inviting pub with a lovely restaurant and separate bar area, loads of seating and we have to say, amazing staff. Remmi, Jasper and the team made us feel so welcome and looked after us the whole evening. We enjoyed performing at Green Man and would highly recommend the venue to anyone who is looking for great food and atmosphere in Cambridge. See you soon! Lee and Hayley #HayLee

Good experience and car parking.

The menu all be it the Christmas one read very nice but actually it's not great. unfortunately my paté had virtually no taste at all and the cherry chutney overpowered what flavour there was,as for my burger if I hadn't been so hungry I would of left most of it brioche buns are not a good idea with wet toppings ie. The cheese sauce all over the top the "beef" dripping sauce was virtually cold and had almost no beef flavour at all!! My partner used their Web site to book as it suggested and we got there it was pretty much empty the waitresses all seemed like they didn't want to be there which I get being boxing day but still could of been a bit more interactive shall wait till this establishment changes hands before returning real shame as we live no more than a ten minute drive!

My family and I visited for Christmas dinner. Being 30 mins early for our table we were pleased to be seated but were happy to wait either way - did not anticipate to be on our main courses 3 mins after the original booking time. I mentioned that we felt rushed through our service which was amended by asking if we would like to wait for our last course. I understand there is a lot to do on Christmas Day service but if you cannot pace all tables with well timed services don’t accept all the bookings and force courses through… we sat by the kitchen doors and my family members were being watched from within to be cleared. Main courses delivered before all starters were removed from table. Had to ask for cutlery, remind of drinks on order and we had disused wine glasses, cracker litter and side plates on the table for the duration of the meal - table maintenance lacking. A few of the more youthful staff members could have a reminder of professional attire - very short dress inappropriate for work lovely for a social occasion.

£4.55 for a pint of orange juice and soda, you should be ashamed!

I ordered the fish and chips and they were genuinely the worst I've had. They were overcooked and dry. I tried two desserts and they were also disappointing, someone at my table said the pear dessert tasted like "nothing." The place is nicely decorated and Christmassy although it's a bit loud and we couldn't hear everyone at our table. Our server was upbeat and nice to us, but service was a bit slow, I think because they were understaffed. Our waiter was clearly under a lot of pressure but still very buoyant and friendly.

The mains were poor. In particular the pizzas were like cardboard. And most of the food we were served was tepid. On the bright side, the pub was attractive and cosy and the drinks and desserts were lovely. Would we go back? No honestly. They need to sort out their food.

Lovely decor, cosy log burner, great sevice, and delicious food. What more could you ask for? We sat in the restaurant and had a fab evening.

Busy friendly pub, good value for money food & drinks.

Excellent staff and delicious fot. I have coeliac disease and feel very safe when I eat at the Green Man

Good service food good Xmas decorations pretty,

Just had a staff Xmas do and it was amazing. Staff are friendly and the whole night was just great. The setting was perfect.

Sarah’s service was absolutely brilliant tonight, she couldn’t do enough for us and there wasn’t an empty glass all night. The food was amazing as well, everything came quickly and hot. The waiting staff did well to make sure everyone got what they had ordered. Very enjoyable evening!

Absolutely outstanding,Sunday lunch.Staff couldn't be more attentive.The best I've eaten in 2024.Fresh vegetables,and homemade yorkies.Well done to you all.xx

Nice Environment It's a nice and quiet place for a meal. The menu was similar to Plough of Horningsea. Similar prices too. The burger was a bit dry and hard and slightly burnt. The burger bun was not brioche bun. But still, the pulled beef inside tasted nice. Everything was hot. Glad that the battered fish had basic seasoning. To me it's very important. Imagine battered fish without any basic seasoning, I will think that the chef is lazy and irresponsible. The portions were small in terms of its price generally. The quantity of chips was the smallest among all of the Cambridge pubs. Not a bad idea if you are determined to eat healthier but fail to quit chips. The staff were nice and helpful. No service charge in the bar area.

Excellent menu choice, great atmosphere, staff very friendly and welcoming

Came here for a work Christmas dinner! Both the food and service was fabulous! Sarah, our host, was prompt, professional and friendly. The food was very quick and tasted great.

Waited far too long for our food to be served, when it was over an hour snd 20 mins, waiter said “you will have to wait “luv” we have a party in! We left!

All staff were extremely friendly - especially Sara who went above and beyond. (Saving me from choosing a meal that would be too spicy for me). Even though the restaurant was very busy, the food came relatively quickly. I can’t think of anything negative.. my husband and I both enjoyed our meal and the experience.

Stevie, The Manager was exceptional and 5 stars for his hospitality. We come here always, Gracie has served us as well as Sarah. Always smiling and polite. This place is our go to, whether as a couple or as a family, birthdays (Sarah was magnificent in adding a candle to our Sons Birthday and had everyone joining in the Birthday song. Mother’s Day again Gracie & Sarah served us.. always trying to please and check backs. Stevie is always extremely knowledgeable with the Menu! Happy Chappy and you can see his staff work well for him a fantastic work team Spirit. We’ve been coming here for well over a Year and always mean to write a review. So as I finish my glass of Sauvignon….. Thank you to all the staff at The Green Man at Trumpington….. Fabulous!

Dry very good, Sarah was outstanding

The service was exceptional - the food was of a high standard (compliments to the chef) and well presented - overall the experience was excellent - I hosted a party with a buffet laid on by the staff. Despite being a busy time of day the staff were very attentive and catered well for us all. I will definitely return!

I had £22 burgher and come out wrong from the kitchen. Not full and missing ingredients.I asked 3 times to the waiter if was the right one. After telling them what was missing all I had was a "Sorry about that". Maybe £20 is not much for them. Next time with my mates I go somewhere else. Thank you.

Food was just incredible, had a 3 course meal and did not disappoint, staff were friendly and welcoming, very attentive and helpful with dietary requirements, atmosphere was beautiful very well done all round

The manager who seated us was very polite he asked if we would like to order drinks. The server was very quick to take our order and the food came out in a timely manner.

The service was very good and my gluten free dietary requirements were accommodated. Sarah was fantastic. Very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. I took a star down because since my first visit, I returned but I wasn't able to order anything from the menu because the server said they couldn't guarantee no cross contamination.

Excellent quality food, with great service

Very good service and lovely food
