NEW LOOK FOR THE GREEN MAN
Exciting things are happening over in Trumpington, where The Green Man pub has undergone an extensive refurb and unveiled a stylish new look. The space inside the building, which dates back to the 17th century, has been completely refreshed, while still paying homage to historic original features. An Instagram-worthy botanical wall is the perfect backdrop for a snap of your cocktail (ours is a candyfloss martini), but the most impressive addition is the stunning new private dining room, which would make a splendid location for a special meal. The food offering has had an overhaul too, and we can vouch for the fact they’ve done a fantastic job with the new menu. Teeming with crowd-pleasers, it features baked camembert, pork belly with seared
scallops, lamb koftas, pies, pizzas, steaks and more, all of which are beautifully presented and generous in size. For dessert, we recommend checking out the House Sharer: a cornucopia of homemade treats that includes a scrumptious chocolate brownie, baked cheesecake, meringue mess and, the crowning glory, a bourbon vanilla ice cream cookie sandwich! At the other end of the scale, for those watching what they eat, there’s also a range of high protein, low calorie dishes, as well as a vegan menu with dishes like lentil falafel and coconut curry. In winter, there are cosy crackling fires to curl up by, but in warmer weather, there’s a lovely outdoor space that begs
to be relaxed in, pint in hand. thegreenmantrumpington.com
