Medieval Roots in a Modern Gastropub
The Green Man occupies a medieval timbered building on Trumpington's High Street, its exterior evoking centuries of village life just beyond Cambridge's academic buzz. Inside, the space has been thoughtfully transformed into a largely open-plan haven, where original wooden beams peek through contemporary styling. A high-pitched roof caps the rear restaurant area, creating an airy feel ideal for lingering over meals. This blend of heritage and hospitality makes it a natural gathering spot for locals and visitors alike.Contemporary British Fare All Day
The menu emphasizes fresh, seasonal ingredients in dishes that highlight modern British cooking with gastropub flair. Expect hearty Sunday roasts with ample gravy, creative starters, and mains featuring local produce. Special diets are well-catered with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free choices, ensuring broad appeal. Weekend breakfasts kick off the day, transitioning seamlessly into lunch and dinner service. Portions are satisfying, paired with a curated wine list and non-alcoholic options for every palate.Ale Heritage and Bar Essentials
As a proper pub at heart, the Green Man pours two regular cask ales alongside one rotating guest beer, nodding to Camra-approved traditions. The full bar stocks wines, spirits, and craft drinks, with table service enhancing the relaxed vibe. Whether settling in for a pint by the fire or sharing plates outdoors, the setting suits casual meetups or family outings. Highchairs and wheelchair accessibility add practicality without compromising charm.Village Charm Meets Cambridge Convenience
