The Green is a modern British serving British and European dishes made with a love of seasonal quality ingredients.

Situated just off Clerkenwell Green, on a south-west facing corner, the site boasts a ground floor pub and first floor dining room, both of which benefit from maximum sunlight with its ceiling-high windows.

The English Bistro style menu has a selection of British classics and European favourites, all designed to bring people round the table and enjoy the occasion. Working closely with the seasons, our chefs are constantly trying to source great products and show them in the way they can shine best, whilst being sympathetic to their region of origin.

The pub offers a changing selection of cask ales and draft beers from local breweries and a carefully selected list of 35 low-intervention wines. The team selects small producers whose ethos is in line with our own of simple genuine quality and who we are proud to support.

Excellent food and wine. Great service, very friendly atmosphere. Not too formal but food was way above average for a pub! Really nice decor and good vibe in general! Would definitely recommend.

Went for Sunday Lunch, very disappointed. Chicken was not cooked and the beef in the beef wellington was very tough.

Classic Sunday roast; we had beef Wellington and pork belly, and both were perfect. Accompanied by roasted veggies, potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and a decent wine. Fun place, mostly 30-somethings ( our youngest kid's age, so fine for the mature set, too).

Great ambiance and staff were attentive and personable , We went for a Sunday roast - not much choice on the menu . The roast beef wellington was very tasty but not enough ( only one slice per person )

We didn't actually get to take up our reservation. We were called 2 hours before dinner to say the restaurant had no power in the kitchen. Most disappointing and rather late to rebook another restaurant of choice

Best roast I have had in London! So hard to find a place that feels so homely and having such high quality. Couldn’t recommend more

We booked Sunday lunch as it was convenient for something else we were doing in the area. The dining room was spacious, nice and quiet and cosy. The staff were lovely and the location was handy for lots of other things too. Wine list excellent and well-priced. But where was my beef Wellington?? The plate was groaning with great veg, but I was served a single small slice of a scant few millimetres of beef and my partner had a sole meagre slice of roast lamb. I get the ‘more veg less meat’ thing, and the meat was lovely; but my roast cost £20, so it felt really overpriced. And there was only one pud on. I’d like to go again when the full menu is on to see how it compares.
