The Village Green

"A good refurbishment a couple of years ago has sadly worn off. This place used to have a good menu, with a refreshed interior and smart upgrade to the garden. Now the pub needs a bit of love - it feels a bit shabby and it appears they've stopped doing food on certain nights (so worth checking). We miss the friendly welcome from the landlady from a couple of years back. Shame, could be great!"

"When the revamped Village Green opened (replacing the John Baird) it had amazing food, great service and was clean. They had amazing roasts. Now I’ve been several times recently to dirty tables, half the menu off, not even crisps one day. The staff are friendly and helpful but it seems the management need to sort it out!"

"Love this place and the girls behind the bar all deserve a raise! Positive energy even in the face of challenges like late deliveries. Delighted that this is our local. Roll on more visits and more fun. Love and laughter!!"

"Nicely done up and great place. But I was a bit shocked about the prices to be honest! The picture is of the £8.50 children's meal we bought for our hungry 8 year old. It's a joke! It basically means I would leave the pub in search for more food to feed my kid because he'd just about got his appetite up by the time he inhaled this tiny little starter, which totally defeats the purpose of a pub dinner. I did complain and they were very nice to give us some more. But whilst we understand there is some reason for the portion size in terms of calories (supposedly to prevent obesity in children), I believe a lower price would then be more suitable. I know its an affluent area, but..."

"A lovely pub in the heart of Muswell hill, on Fortis Green Road. A pub of stripped out " shabby chic" well done. It was not immediately clear what was available on keg, taps are on the back bar. A good selection available and a couple of casks on offer too. Service was happy and friendly as well as speedy, full marks! A word must be said about the garden, a wonderful sheltered patio with loads of seating and an upstairs balcony setting area with more booths and everything, quite brilliant. All in all, a very fine place for a drink or to sample the fine inexpensive, bespoke menu. Certainly worth a visit!!"
