| A traditional looking pub in a small village just outside of Woburn, this looks to have been recently refurbished both inside and out. Whilst it retains it’s traditional appearance, the outside has been enhanced with spherical hanging shrubbery and uplighters on the wall. Inside it has a much more contemporary appearance, so whilst it may perhaps have lost some of it’s more authentic features, it is nonetheless still a pleasant enough pub. There is also a patio area at the rear of the pub for the warmer weather. It was very quiet on a recent Tuesday evening visit with just a couple of locals propping up the bar. The pub consists of two rooms in an L-shape configuration. The smaller bar to the left looked to be more geared up for dining with most of the tables being laid up for food. There was some wood strip on the floor, but other than that it was difficult to discern much in the way of detail as it was in darkness on a recent Tuesday evening visit. The main bar to the right is divided in to two halves with tables and chairs at the rear and a mixture of seating at the front including a brown leather sofa and a few armchairs clustered around the two brick fire-places. Décor wise, there was some attractive, mottled tiles on the floor with green paintwork on the top half of the walls and wooden cladding lower down. The menu offered a good mix of dishes and included pub favourites such as Ham Egg & Chips, Battered Fish & Chips, Burger, Fishcakes, etc., as well as a few more adventurous dishes. There was also a specials board that offered a few other options, so there should be something to suit most tastes. Most of the mains were somewhere around the £10 - £13 mark, so a step up from your usual pub grub. If you only wanted a light snack, there was also cheesy chips, wedges and such like available for £3 or £4. I had a Fisherman’s Pie with a Cheesy Mash, and this was a decent and tasty dish. There was a slight mix up with the accompanying vegetables, but I got the impression that this was a genuine mistake which they were very apologetic about and swiftly rectified. Beers on tap were Old Hooky, Doom Bar and London Pride. The solitary cider was Aspall’s Suffolk. Overall, despite that fact that it may not be quite as traditional as some country inns, I liked this pub and would happily return. Blackthorn - 18 Sep 2013 08:20 |
| Ate and drank here a few weeks ago with a group of friends. We all had lunch, some had proper main meals, other just had sandwiches. I had mussels which were lovely, it came with bread and chips. I think there were about 3 real ales on tap, not particularly exciting selection but kept well. It was a lovely day so we sat in the good beer garden. We were walking, pub only really accessible by foot or car. Would agree with the other comments, not exactly a villagy feel to the pub but it is definitely worth a visit. rwjc22 - 10 Aug 2011 11:58 |
| The Green Man puts some of the more expensive eateries in Woburn to shame. Excellent food, warm and friendly service, good value and that good old country pub feel. Eating the chocolate bread and butter pudding in front of the log fire on a cold winter's night is heaven.... slw532 - 19 Jul 2010 15:41 |
| Visited yesterday. Three cask ales on (for once not GK). So, a good choice. Perhaps, for a free house, a little expensive at �3.00 ++. The lunch was excellent. The service attentive and helpful and good natured. Log fires and a good atmosphere. A bit of a pity that the interior has been over modernised in a sort of "IKEA" type of design. Enthusiastic energetic landlords. All in all, a good pub well worth taking the trouble to visit. BeerEnthusiast - 1 Mar 2010 09:36 |
| Not keen on the design at all. A beautiful location opposite the church and stunning views across the countryside. I really have no idea why the interior has been ruined. However, the beer was superb and the bar staff were friendly so it's a definite thumbs up from me! adamcroft - 20 Oct 2009 13:02 |
