  • Our little knitted friends are back!

    Last year, we embarked on some Easter fun - for a good cause!

    The very talented Mary Bower knitted these gorgeous little egg warmers and they have once again taken up residence at Green's, for the Easter period.

    Each knitted egg has a chocolate egg inside and we have suggested a donation of £2 - for the Will Clark Fund.

    It's a cause close to our hearts, so dig deep and catch 'em whilst you can. The little blighters won't stick around forever, you know!

  • Evening handmade chocs

    Did you know that we serve homemade chocolates in the evening's at Greens?  We didn't think so.

    Our homemade chocolate truffles are lovingly created by our very own hands and are now available for evening opening, following dinner and accompanying coffee.

    Don't forget that we are open for dinner from 26th, Sunday through to Wednesday from 6 and you can find the current menu on the website.

    We look forward to seeing you!
