My husband and I came here for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it! The food was delicious and the service outstanding. The staff were very friendly and attentive without being intrusive. A great experience all round, we’ll certainly be back!

We had a mid-week wintery lunch at Green Man recently. Although predominantly a bar, there are several food options available as well as an all day barsnacks menu. I had a main of seafood chowder, which was deliciously thick, full of seafood and served with slightly-burnt ciabatta. It was a huge portion considering it was on the ‘light meal’ menu and much larger than my friend’s Greenman Fun-Guy mushroom dish from the ‘substantial’ menu (although both priced at $18.50). Our service was basic and efficient. The Green Man gets extremely busy on Fridays and some evenings but has a convivial pub atmosphere and a small outdoor area. A good weekday lunch venue.

Came here for an early dinner and loved the steak. The place look a bit cold and sterile from the outside but inside is cool, lots of different spaces. Good beers, good food, good service – no complaints from me other than looking forward to the next visit.

My husband and I popped in to The Green Man for lunch when we were in Wellington a couple of weeks ago.

This pub has a great atmosphere. The staff were very attentive and the service was speedy. Our meals were very tasty, in particular the flavours in the soup were just delicious.

We will be back again for sure.

Just had lunch with workmates at The Green Man and have to say that everything was very good! I had the Steak special for $15 which was a 500g rump steak with fries and mushroom sauce along with garlic bread and hot vegetables and everything was tasty. The steak was huge and cooked to perfection! The staff are friendly and helpful and the variety on the menu makes this a must return to place for me! Good food and good service – will definitely go back….Thank you for a great lunch experience!

Not bad, slightly expensive for the average pub food.

Definitely try the hottest chicken wings though, they are amazing!

I’d brought website voucher deals twice for this pub – and would feel comfortable returning to pay full price!

The first time around I wasn’t expecting all too much so played it safe. I ordered buffalo wings, fries and later on got a steak and a pint. The service was superb! Although there was a wee wait (approx 20-30mins), this could be expected anywhere. The second time around I returned without question to have a quick meal before going to a movie – This confirmed that this is the place to go if you want a decent meal at a great price with good service!!

If you’re into thick cuts of scotch fillet steak at around $40+, this may not be the place to go. However, if you’re after a well priced meal with tasty tenderised marinated rump steaks (or a great selection of other food and hops) – The Greenman has this covered!

I have decided to have another go, I have given 5 stars as the restaurant manager and waiter service was outstanding. Plus the chicken wings and the pork belly were very nice and tender, taste was just right, not salty. I had the lamb rump, taste was very nice, the meat were juicy and have some blood. yum!!!

We are planning to go for a quiz night. and they have 12 wings plus a jug of beer for $30… will go back to do that

For a pub, this is five star. Great pizzas and curry cheese fries are just the ticket. Great beer selection, friendly staff and good pub atmosphere, suitable for suits to drink alongside students. Live band on Fri night makes this place pump.

We were gifted a couple of vouchers for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it!. The service from our waiter from what he told us was his fourth day on the job is a paragon of excellence that many of his peers could learn. I ordered the duck again while she had a generous serving of terakihi with cajun spice. Service was very fast and the food was great. We’ll definitely visit again.

We bought a couple of vouchers from Spreets and must say it was a great deal. The service is the best in Wellington, the food was delicious. The ambiance was very nice, music not loud and annoying, candles on the table all in a very nice room. Definitively we’ll visit again.

Went to the Greenman on a Wednesday night, I had been there before for lunch and it was quite nice. We waited over half an hour to be served, the excuse given was sorry I got talking…..

The meal itself was nice and priced accordingly.

We also ordered 2 beers, a diet coke and 1 cocktail (which we enquired whether it was priced at $5, as per a special that was advertised and were advised it was).

When we went to pay (waited another 15 minutes to pay) and we were billed for our meals as per normal , the beers and 2 expensive cocktails which were not ordered (neither were the one cocktail which was ordered at all). I advised that we also had a diet coke and we queried the cocktails. The young blond bar girl who originally served us was queried by the duty manager (I presume) who had now been called in to deal with our payment. The duty manager, then argued with us telling us the bar girl was right and asking us how she should deal with the situation. I then needed to raise my voice with the “duty manager” which made it a very uncomfortable situation, one I have never been put in before.

It seems this restaurant/bar knows little about customer service, their menu, or how to operate their till for that matter.

I will not be returning to the green man nor recommending it to anyone.
