"The Green Man at Linsell is a charming pub located off the beaten path that almost meets expectations. The pub's decor is lovely and you'll receive a warm welcome from the attentive front-of-house team. It's a step up from your typical pub, with white tablecloths and napkins that elevate the Sunday lunch experience. Getting there may require navigating through narrow single-track roads with the help of a somewhat confusing satnav, but there is ample parking available once you arrive. The drink selection is standard pub fare, though the wine list appears reasonable. For our meal, we both opted for the beef Sunday roast. While everything was cooked well, the dishes lacked seasoning and punch to truly elevate the flavors. One dish that stood out was a broccoli cheese concoction that seemed odd and wasn't to our taste. For dessert, we tried the crumble and brownie bake. The crumble, advertised as apple and blackberry or blackcurrant, felt lacking in the black element, resulting in what appeared to be a purple apple crumble. Despite these drawbacks, we cleaned our plates and left feeling satisfied and ready for a post-meal walk with our dog. The bill came to £30 per person, drinks included, making it a reasonably priced Sunday lunch option. Overall, The Green Man at Linsell is worth a visit for a leisurely lunch in a pleasant setting."

"I have been looking forward to going to this place for a long time as it’s local to me. On entry I did feel like it was an issue to the staff that I am exempt from wearing a facial covering even though I was...wearing a lanyard and a badge stating that I’m exempt. We were seated and showed the menus and ordered a good Sunday roast. When the food came out and the vegetables came out afterwards we asked is this for both of us or is the single portion they said it was for both of us but it was smaller than what one person might eat so complained and they brought out more vegetables for us which was very nice. The beef tasted amazing although the horseradish sauce was not necessary as it ruined the flavour that the beef which was seasoned greatly already. The vegetables seem to be dry like they’ve been cooked earlier but been sitting on a hot plate. My partner had the chicken with salsa Verde which was a little bit strange she did moan about the vegetables; Kale and beetroot are not your regular Sunday roast accoutrement. I went to the men’s toilet and all the urinals were overfilled no signage saying that the toilets are broken also the hand dryer didn’t work. After the meal we complained to our server about the things that we felt were amiss and he said he had to report to his manager also tried to say that they couldn’t get a plumber to fix the toilet. in my opinion they should have at least cordoned off the toilets and made alternative arrangements. When it came to paying the bill we asked to leave specific amounts including a tip after paying the first half and then the second half we were informed we couldn’t leave a tip via card no cash even though we had requested to do so prior to payment. Not rushing back here, have had so much better everywhere else. I do wonder how businesses stay afloat!!"
