Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It was a Steak Night and the food, service and cost were exemplary. Steak perfectly cooked and the ambience, for a solo patron. was excellent. Big thank you to them.

Had to do a review! First time we’ve visited this pub and have to say the food was fabulous. Went for Fish Friday but didn’t realise it was served in a box ‘to go’ or eat in. So decided to pay extra for China plates!...🤣 Fish was lovely. Then had rhubarb and berry crumble with ice cream. Again wonderful. This is a typical English pub. Nice atmosphere. Shall return when in areaMore

All I can say is AMAZING! The pub is very hidden in Wimborne and is very welcoming to not only humans, but to dogs to. The bar lady offered a treat and water to our cocker spaniel. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was nice...and it was great customer service! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻More

After searching in vain for a Ploughman's lunch, we used the power of FB, & joined Bournemouth Community Board, for recommendations. The Green Man was on the list, so off we went. We were first struck by the lovely atmosphere, & the very warm welcome...from Sadie (I swear she is either magic, or wears invisible roller skates!) I finally got my Ploughman's lunch, after a week of searching! Oh my, it was HUGE. Gorgeous Dorset cheddar wedges, & thick slices of local ham. Sadie very kindly boxed up (quite beautifully) the remainder, when I was beaten. My husband had the Green Man burger... WOW! It should be on a man vs food challenge. The food was outstanding, staff amazing & great prices. We will definitely be back next time we're in the area.More

The Green Man has everything you want from a cosy town pub. I had lunch there with my wife and our dog. There was a nice log fire burning and we were all made very welcome. There’s a good choice of cider, wine and beer...(I loved my two pints of ‘Swordfish’ – but at 5% I was glad my wife was driving!). Although they have quite a comprehensive ‘pub grub’ menu we only wanted a simple meal, so both chose a jacket potato stuffed with cheese and mushrooms. It was served promptly with lots of nice trimmings. At just under a fiver each it represented excellent value (Jan 2023).More

Today we had our Christmas meal at The Green Man. The food was tasty and hot and not too long to wait between courses. The food is sourced using the local Fishmonger, The local Fruit and Veg shop and the local Butchers. I can’t praise...the staff highly enough. They were very friendly, attentive and accommodating. Nothing too much trouble when we needed anything else. I can highly recommend the Green Man. Thank you so much everybody for making it a very enjoyable occasion.More

Our favourite pub. So welcoming, with great beer. Try the Swordfish on tap, a wonderful quality ale that's very well kept. Menu is limited, but this allows them to concentrate on quality, with locally sourced ingredients. Keep up the great work.

Might seem strange to start a review of the Green Man by mentioning the Landlady of a different pub in Wimborne.. However, the Odd Fellows Arms does not do Sunday lunch and she reccomend The Green Man., even showed us the way. The Green Man...is a 5 minute walk from the Minster and well worth it. Obviously we hadn't booked but the charming lady behind the bar found us a table. Good Menu with reasonable prices. We opted for Sunday Roasts with apple crumble for dessert, very nice. Total price for 2 including coffees £29. Add on two really good waitresses and we couldn't fault this experience. Would we reccomend? Definitely. Would we come again ? Definitely.More

We were travelling back home and drove past the Green Man and decided to stop for a drink, but seeing the excellent menu we decided to stay, sit outside in the sunshine and being a Sunday, order a Sunday Lunch - great portion sizes (I...had the smaller meal option), plus a dessert added on for just an extra £2! The Roast was proper 'home cooked' and had a good range of veg, beef and lovely gravy - the desserts were awesome and generous portions - my husband had the lovely apple crumble and custard and I had the Dorset Apple Cake and ice cream, absolutely delicious! We will be back, a reasonably priced treat, thank you!More

Took mum and dad for a roast as they were visiting from Spain, and missing roast dinners. Have visited before with my other half and our dog for a drink sitting outside or a quick baguette, but never Sunday lunch or inside. Safe to say...after todays visit we will be back for Sunday lunch! Great staff, lovely food, nice wine, great price and all local produce. Really just a nice quaint friendly pup where everyone is welcome. Thanks to all the staff!More
