Green Man's Arms is a great place for good vegetarian food that's cunningly disguised as "fast food". The kitsch decor and cosy nooks make the place feel very comfortable and welcoming. This is heightened by the staff, who are attentive and friendly. The Impossible Burger is absolutely delicious and the Pomme Frittes are sublime.

The food was just ok but the 5 course 'Chef's Suggestions' was way overpriced. Cocktails were the worst I've tasted anywhere and again overpriced. Also we went early on a hot evening and found that the restaurant and bar had no a/c. We won't be back.

Hadn’t been there in a bit, although GMA hit the spot again. A Diverse menu, although not overwhelming, had the dishes nailed down nicely. Had the feed me option, which is a popular choice these days, and quite filling. Favourite dish was the carbonara, and the only draw back, was battling the slippery sweet potato noodles, although the flavours were perfect. Would like the option of a Biang Biang style noodle or dish in the future, and maybe another house made curry. Drink prices are good and the staff absolutely wonderful. Will always be a return customer at GMA.

From the moment we walked in we felt welcome and then were well looked after, by the friendly and efficient staff. As for the food it was delicious, everything we go was yummy. We got the calamari, fried cauliflower, linguine carbonara and the sticky date pudding and shared them. Thanks Green Man's Arms for a great overall experience.
