The Galvin Green Man pub is a return home for Michelin starred Essex-born brothers, Chris & Jeff Galvin. Already awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand and 2 AA Rosettes, the building is set in 1.5 acres of riverside meadow amidst the beautiful countryside with the River Chelmer as a companion, near the village of Great Waltham. The Charming Green Man is one of the oldest pubs in Essex, having been built in 1341 even boasts a bus stop at its front door – ideal for indulging in a drink or two in the Essex Pub Of The Year. The award winning pub serves carefully selected beers with a strong emphasis on working with local craft brewers.

As an addition to the pub, The Galvin Brothers have added a stunning restaurant boasting panaromic views delivering a refined menu, concentrating on Modern British cooking, using carefully sourced ingredients.

    First time went there for a dinner with my partner. Lovely place, friendly and welcoming staff but food really let us down. Would like to see improvement in food quality, and overall experience. The price you’re charging got to reflect on food!
