The Green Owl in East Riding of Yorkshire

Love it here, great for people watching, staff are lovely, the tapas are gorgeous

live music on a Sunday afternoon, lovely food we'll stocked bar, staff lovely

Everything was good till the girl who was cooking started to pick a spot on her arm.

Lovely food and great to people watch

Very rude staff serving at the bar

Really good place for lunch. Good menu, good food.

Great food and drinks. Cocktails were amazing and 4 for 20 quid was an absolute bargain. Had breakfast and steak night here and both meals were superb!

Nipped in for drinks a couple of times. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and could take the dog in. Would definitely visit again if in the area

Friendly and attentive, lovely steak pies and burgers. Better after refurbishment. Also gorgeous prawn Starter & Cheesy chips

Just been to Thursday pie night and it was absolutely amazing the best chicken leak and potato pie I've tasted and the gravy was so tasty.

Excellent breakfast. Brisk, friendly service. Good coffee, too. Recommended.

Great service and a wonderful Atmosphere

Excellent food and coffee. Brilliant

Dropped by for a drink, My partner got avocado and poached egg on brown toast, looked amazing, and she said it was perfect. I got a side dish of Halloumi for £5.95, not haopy with the 2 small pieces served and cut in half. To be fair to the staff, he warned us that the portion size was not the best, still... overpriced, and the owners need to reduce that by at least £2.50 All in all, nice, friendly place on the main street.

Lovely place good food , great staff friendly and helpful, good service & great Atmosphere, reasonable priced would definitely recommend, will definitely use again 👍👍

I was disappointed today. The Green Owl has always been a place where you can eat well and drink good wine. Today they brought us cold pasta and cold couscous with vegetables, which was listed as hummus on the menu. Guys, are you serious? Did you want to surprise? You succeeded. But I didn't like this surprise. To be fair, I want to add that the shrimp in the salad were divine and they replaced the cold pasta with another ingredient at our request. Unfortunately, there was a bigger choice of dishes before. We'll know that next time. Good luck to you.

What a lovely pub to visit with the family. A lovely cosy place with kind and helpful staff who welcomed the whole family, including the dog (who got special treats!) Nothing was too much trouble, the food was delicious. Would not hesitate to return when next in the area. UPDATE: Aug 24. Returned a year later to find the layout has changed. Still a lovely space to visit, bright and airy, dog still welcome. Limited menu but the food was delicious and staff very kind. Lovely to see the chef cleaning down regularly. We look forward to returning again.

This place is probably one of the best places for food, drink & entertainment in Hornsea. Food is amazing, service is fantastic which is a testament to the owners! I would recommend this place all the time!

Bit busy nice food lovely spot overlooking the sea

The Green Owl is right in the centre of Hornsea town. It’s the perfect spot to sit in the sun and watch the world go by. The menu which has something for everyone and if you’re vegan or vegetarian you have a number of options which is wonderful: 5 stars for offering a vegan cheese toastie alongside the regular version. The super salad bowls and smashed potatoes with garlic and chives are really good too. Friendly service, inclusive menu and tasty food. Oh and it’s dog friendly and has board games on offer too. Next time we’re in Hornsea we’ll return here.

Absolutely fab cafe. What a find. Service speedy and friendly. Great food. Stylish interior. Really happy thank you.

Lovely food friendly service now got hand pulled beer great bewsone brewery ! Very good groups on regularly kingsman 5 star

Only had a coffee which was very nice but the food looked lovely. Very friendly staff and loved the new look

Friendly staff. Good location for people watching.

Great food, well made. Recommended

Loved sitting outside in the sun having a cold beer

A lovely friendly atmosphere and great food

lovely food and staff good prices aswell

This place gets just gets better. Great friendly staff always made to feel welcome, good food and excellent choice of drinks, good in poor weather even better when the suns out, just go and chill!

best cocktail in hornsea, a quadruple dream of mixed delight, thank you shariffe, an asset to the town giving us ladies something to look forward to

This is our go to cafe in Hornsea, been several times, food is fab, reasonably priced. I don’t mind waiting for the food as it means it’s freshly cooked, Always busy which we like as it has a good atmosphere. Staff are so friendly, we recently took our family from USA & although scones weren’t on the menu that day they brought some out for free. We’ve asked for other items not on the menu & they have always tried to provide. Love it

Great food and really friendly staff

My favorite place to be when i can 😍

Always a pleasure to visit. Jo and Matt and the team do an amazing job and make you feel very welcome.

Food was delicious. Service was great. Only issue for us was the background noise of lots of people talking very loudly to be heard above the noise of other people talking very loudly! It was a Saturday, the weather was good, the place was packed both inside and outside front, which is great for business but not for a relaxing meal so I think next time, we will visit midweek to see if things are a bit calmer. Apologies If this sounds like a bit of kill joy. (we're getting older is my excuse!) Would definitely go again.

Good music vibes on first Sunday of each month. Great atmosphere.

Excellent breakfast first class ingredients would recommend people to visit. Staff lovely too

A really nice lunch on a cold rainy day. Great portions, lively atmosphere and great service.

Recent visit to East Yorkshire as usual included Hornsea and this time we tried to explore the streets and areas away from the sea front. Arriving early the Green Owl was a great start/find, dog friendly, (two whippets) one of the tastiest breakfasts I've had, from a menu with plenty of choice, friendly staff, and with very clean modern toilets.

We only had coffees but they were the best coffees we've had for a long time.

Love this place, perfect place to stop when out for the day. Great food, portions are good, great for a Sunday stop gor a drink.

Lovely food and great atmosphere! A brilliant place to go for drinks and live music (on almost every weekend on the evenings and some Sunday afternoons). Food is also amazing from breakfast through to evenings - their mince pies and brandy cream were a lovely treat too! Just an update to say what a brilliant time we had at the Carnival fundraiser too!

Popped in for a drink on a sunny Fri afternoon. Good crowd inside and out . Friendly staff. Didnt eat so cant comment . Looked like a singer setting up but we had bus to catch but will return to try again

Had a lovely breakfast here and our 2 dogs were made very welcome

Highly recommend Brilliant service and excellent quality ingredients all locally sourced Very pleasant and friendly staff Dog friendly Reasonable priced Beautiful home cooked breakfast, went back 2 mornings

Lovely place to visit for a bite to eat and a drink. Even better now that it has had a makeover

Steak Night: misleading social media advertising We went to steak night, as was strongly commented on Facebook local groups. Photo posted looks delicious. But when our family night out finally arrived we realised it was nothing like that. They offered regress meat cuts, when we ordered one. Mean: left over one. Also, our it didn’t come with salad, soggy chips and garden peas, not salad at all (as per photo). And everything else in the advert, we have to pay for, sauces and onion rings, as per social medias nothing was mentioned. My stars are going to the staff. They are friendly and helpful.

Love the milkshakes. Tried strawberry.banana.mango. will try Oreo next that looks delicious too . Wonderful friendly staff.

Waited nearly one hour for our breakfast in end got a refund and found another cafe!!

Heard great things, and seen great reviews. But we went for breakfast this morning, but after waiting for nearly an hour and no sign of the food we got a refund and left hungry. Food was coming out but not hours, despite being sat under the server window, they still didnt click we was waiting far too long. No apology and by time the waiter decided to say sorry it wont be long, it was too late! I know what happened as i was watching, when technolgy goes wrong what they should have done was back track what they had done and not done on the tickets, but that would have been too easy! Not enough staff for a start and the chap who was waiting on had a real issue with personal hygiene and shouldnt be anywhere a restuarant in my view. Done catering my self and i know things go wrong due to various factors but when we entered the place there was ony a couple of tables that where occupied so no excuse really, there was at least one other couple who left before us with a refund!Its a shame as we heard some great things and always busy day and night, we wont go back but im sure we wont be missed but there you go.

Great place and a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Amazing cocktails too 🍹🍸🍲🥗

Stopped here by chance on our way to hornsea for breakfast. Friendly service, amazing food and great atmosphere. Just a shame we live 140 miles away otherwise we would be regulars ❤️

Always friendly and good service. Nice to have live music.

Some nice "small plates" of food 3 for 2 with some nice craft beer made for a pleasant hour in the Owl.

I had a steak on steak night it was amazing the dianne sauce was awesome and the staff couldn't do enough for us I would genuinely recommend to all to try the green owl you will not be disappointed

We accidentally came across this after finding lotsa places stop doing food at 3 in Hornsea.... Friendly, bit quirky, down to earth, brilliant menu, great helpful service, not sure wot u'd call it.... Mix of pub/cafe/restaurant... Thoroughly enjoyable experience

Went out of there way to help me with a better chair to sit down with my leg ,very nice and welcoming

Lovely food, big portions lovely chips. Steak and ale pie was crammed with tender meat!

Very welcoming friendly and accommodating

The green owl is great. It's always got a good trade and I have never been to one but they have live music which looks brilliant. From perfect hot drinks to a nice cold beer and they also do or at least did do good food.

We love the décor and atmosphere of the Green Owl. Great addition to Hornsea, especially with the live music. The bar area is a little small and when the band night was on, you find yourself having to push through to get served, but that's not a major issue and I suppose added to the atmosphere. We got a very warm welcome and lovely smile for the small dark haired girl, she never seemed to stop and managed to serve two or three people, compared to another (slightly glum) female member of staff's one! We can't wait to come and try the steak night as the reports we have heard from others is that the food is 5* quality, it certainly looks good. Keep up the great work, we will definitely be back

We have been a few times , it's OK. I just think staff could be a bit more friendly as we have been a few times now. The young girls are lovely behind the bar it's the waitresses..lovely spot in Hornsea for when we visit .

What a gem People visiting the area or locals get here have some lovely food and coffee or a pint.

Fantastic meal. Home made chips and delicious desserts. Wonderful service. Thank you

Great Atmosphere and the staff are helpful and food was nice.

Very nice place especially at 8.45 in the morning when we needed breakfast. Highly recommended 👌

Great music artist and feel good atmosphere. Loved it, and will visit again

I thought it was expensive for the area

Drove down to here to eat on a Monday evening,apparently don’t do food on a Monday I think is what the guy said! Maybe you should put this on the website or google or something!

Awesome little cafe with lovely staff.

Only popped in for a coffee but it was a very nice place to relax with a good coffee.

Only had drinks, but they were lovely. Service was excellent, polite friendly staff. Dog friendly.

Visited on a Friday night, food service had stopped early due to a live band being on later. Lots of tables reserved so meant choice was minimal. Service was polite and efficient and drinks were well presented and tasted good. Venue appears very small and cramped but it wasn’t too busy on our visit so was ok. Will try again for food soon as the menu and other guests photos look amazing!

Pleasent atmosphere..seating outside in Nice weather.. Very friendly..

The food is amazing. Always freshly cooked and everything is sourced locally, plus there’s a good selection of wines, beers & spirits. Band nights have a great party atmosphere and Sunday afternoon music / open mic sessions are fabulous.

Before the refit this was a lovely place to come. Lovely atmosphere. Excellent service and Excellent food. But since the refit, unfortunately now the atmosphere has changed, the space is so small, the food isn't great, and the price of the food is so expensive. Was a lovely place to go but unless changes are made quickly, their rivals are likely to send them under this year. Come on guys, this isn't progress

Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. Reasonably priced. Didn't have food so cannot comment on that.

Popped In New Years day, lovely atmosphere, great service. Certainly will be visiting again. ,

Lovely place, friendly staff. We had been down for the boxing day dip, so we stopped off for a hot drink before heading home. Ordered scone with jam and cream, hot chocolate x 2. Waited a bit longer than anticipated to receive the drinks after ordering. Had eaten our scones by time our drink had come out. Otherwise would havebeen 5 star.

Just had Christmas lunch which was lovely. Coming back next year

First time and everything was great , staff were happy and the food was fresh and delicious 😋, would definitely recommend .

Recently newly refurbished cafe bar and I understand under new management. Always seems busy which has to be a good sign. Good selection of meals. We had the hot BLT panini with relish, coleslaw and salad, and a side order of hand cut chips (amazing chips). Came to around £14 each (drinks not included), which we felt was a little pricey for lunch but not a lot of other cheaper options available on the menu post breakfast period. Would have preferred a cheaper lunchtime snack option similar to the breaksfast options as we didnt want a lot to eat. This could also be a deal breaker for those with families. However, quality was spot on and portion size plentyful and piping hot. Cooked to order and quickly served. Staff very accommodating.

Just had steak and ale pie and chips in the Green Owl for lunch. Delicious, home made proper chips, proper stake and pastry in the pie, amazing. Lovely staff and great space following the refurbishment. What a pleasant place to spend an afternoon. Top marks. 👍👍

Cracking breakfast with my son, and in really nice surroundings. Food was lovely, with “real sausages” and served by friendly and chatty staff. Just too early for today Santas visit, but we’ll be back.

This place is a gem. It’s a great place to get a coffee, or something from the bar. The food is amazing, freshly cooked to order every time. They have vegan meals on the menu and all the food is sourced locally. Speak to the team if you have a food intolerance, because it’s freshly made they will do anything they can to accommodate you. Weekends often have live music Friday night / Saturday night / Sunday afternoon. There’s a different vibe at different times of the day, but whenever it is, is a great one. I can’t recommend it enough.

A bean burger! Great vegetarian offering well done.

Refurbished since last there. Looks good to me.

I visited here on the night our town's Christmas lights were switched on. It was understandable busy and I'm not sure if food was being served. The service was quick considering the amount of people int the establishment. There was a good ambience . I will definitely return.

Really nice food but very slow with drinks order didn't come till after we had received our food

Used it for years and years, we got a bacon sandwich a few weeks ago and it was on floppy bread which just broke up when you tried to eat it. One woman serving two watching!!!!!

Excellent! Great people been going for a few years nothing alters just get a better! Met the owners today and now know why it’s a community place, but more than that it’s a welcoming place for visitors! Try it!

Our friend took us to this place as he'd been before. He had the crispy chicken burger, whilst we had the fish finger sandwich 🥪 - wow, we were struggling to eat the sandwich, it was so filling......so much so we only had a cup a soup at the end of the day as we couldn't manage anything else. Lovely staff, lovely atmosphere. We'll be back

Pizza was tasty, you could actually see the ingredients, i.e. onions and green peppers. They were large sliced. Some may not like it that way, but we found it refreshing. The bar staff was friendly and the price was reasonable. Was somewhat small, but it seems like a lot of locals go there. So as a traveler, it is nice to go where the locals go. if in the area we would stop in again.

Called in for some lunch. We had a sandwich, which came with a small side salad, and we upgraded to add fries. The food was nice and the staff were polite and friendly. The service was quick.

Food was very poor we had a breakfast and was expensive.

After being let down by another local business, our party of 10 gave them a call to check if they had space for us, as well as vegan options. Within 20 minutes they had a table set up and reserved, had alerted the kitchen of the large order, and arranged everything we needed. If that wasn't enough, the food was amazing. I personally had the vegan chilli nachos, and the portion size was insane! Everyone else in our party spoke highly of their food, and couldn't say a bad word about it. Our server, Hayley, was brilliant. There were a couple of kids in the group, and her easy attitude with them helped with keeping them calm until the food arrived. She was also really helpful with the adults in the group answering questions, especially about the specials, and giving prompt service. I highly recommend this place, especially for groups with mixed dietary requirements.

Green Owl saved our day today, after being let down by another local business. We had originally booked a table, elsewhere, as there were 10 of us out to celebrate a family members birthday. Unfortunately arrived and we were told we'd have to find our own place to sit, also told we couldn't remove items from meals on menu (no sauce in a wrap, no coleslaw on the plate etc) and told if we didn't want to have what was on the menu, to go elsewhere. We rang Green Owl, and asked if there was anyway they could squeeze in a table of 10 asap. Which thankfully they could. When we arrived our table was ready, and we were greeted with a smile by Hayley, and told all about the specials, and explained all the vegan options on the menu for us (1 member of the group is vegan) We were offered table service, but as we were paying separately we offered to order at the bar to make it easier. Service was quick, and the drink selection was brilliant, with plenty to offer even our fussiest member of the party. We ordered our food, and it arrived very quickly for a large table. All the food was well presented, tasty and hot. We had a variety of things, from burgers, fish finger club Sandwich, kids meals, toasties and vegan nachos. There's plenty of options to choose from, unfortunately pizzas are currently unavailable, but we've had these in the past and they are superb. All the staff were really friendly, and welcoming. They couldn't do enough to make sure we had a good afternoon, after our earlier disappointment. Would highly recommend this place to anyone. It is definitely one of our favourite places to eat in Hornsea.

Came here as two families. Good food and a great atmosphere. Lasagne and burgers we the highlight but the pies were a close second.

Love this place. Friendly bar staff, great music, always busy so great atmosphere. Only eaten here once but it was 10/10
