  • We're serving up a feast for dinner!

    If you're looking for somewhere to eat this evening, pop in and try one of our delicious specials.

    On tonight's menu, why not start with a vegetable roulade with crème fraiche and tomato sauce, or garlic mushrooms?

    Our mains specials are fish pie topped with creamy mash and fresh vegetables or spicy thai salmon salad.

    And a triumphant finish: tuck into a marmalade glazed bread and butter pudding with lashings of custard or clotted cream, or our famous lemon posset topped with blueberry coulis.

    Hard to choose?  I know.  We couldn't either..........

  • 'Cousin's allotment salad'

    For a very short time only, we will be serving 'Cousin's salad', fresh from cousin Luke's allotment in West Sussex!

    Freshly picked purple and yellow beans with borlotti and celery, tossed in a light red onion vinaigrette, with either seeds and nuts (vegan) or glazed goats cheese (vegetarian).

    At £7.95, it's perfect for lunch, but do be quick.  We will only be able to serve this for a limited period!

    Thank you cousin Luke - not only do these taste delicious, but they look stunning too!

  • Green's Mediterranean Salad now on the menu

    We don't wish to speak too soon, but summer might just be gracing us with its presence.  And, in celebration, we have created a very special and delicious dish to accompany the balmy weather.

    Our Mediterranean salad comprises dressed mesculum salad leaves topped with crunchy vegetables, marinated in kalamata olives, sunblush tomatoes and served with a choice of warm glazed goats cheese, grilled chicken or our very own homemade garlicky hummus!

    With a crunchy multi grain roll on the side, we think we've got a winner!

    Do pop in, sit on the sunny terrace and join us for lunch.  We'll see you there!

  • Quinoa - Unique and Healthy at Greens

    We couldn't be accused of being 'ordinary' at Greens and our latest dish is certainly testament to that!  Currently on our menu, our 'Warm Roasted Vegetable and Quinoa Salad' is both unique and healthy.

    Comprising quinoa, roasted vegetables, cranberries, apricots, toasted nuts and seeds with a tahini and yoghurt dressing, this unusual recipe is seriously tasty and super-healthy too!

    For those not in the know, quinoa is usually considered to be a wholegrain, but is actually a seed, although it can be prepared like rice or barley.  A staple food in South America for thousands of years, quinoa has the highest protein content of all wholegrains, so it's perfect for vegetarians and vegans.  It also provides all 9 essential amino acids and is both gluten-free and cholesterol-free.

    So, there you are.  Everything we know about quinoa.  Just don't ask us to pronounce it!
