how to find it:

The pub's just off the A113 to Ongar. You will need a car to get there, as it's not near anything in particular . When you reach Stanford Rivers on the A113 toward Ongar, turn left where it's posted to the Toot Hill golf course. Carry on past said course and keep going straight. When you reach Toot Hill itself, you'll need to bear right and the pub's just ahead on the left. If you did fancy trying to get here by public transport, the nearest bus stop is probably the one about 1 and a half miles away, on the Epping Road (A414), near the junction with Blake Hall Road (you'll walk past the closed Blake Hall tube station on the way). Buses run between Epping (or Harlow) and Ongar that way, usually once or twice an hour - but it's not a particularly practical means of reaching the pub.

sorry no picture of this pubThis excellent pub is a hidden gem in the Essex countryside. We don't know how we found this one, but it's worth the trip out of London on a Sunday. It has a normal pub bit with a dining area off it, as well as a separate restaurant. The beer selection is good with well-kept beer on tap and a decent wine list which won't break the bank. If you want to eat here, it's worth booking as it does get busy, particularly for Sunday lunch. It's a fab pub to while away a lunchtime in, and it's worth a visit at other times too. Excellent food and good-sized portions, too. Only downside being that if you want to go here and you don't live in Toot Hill, someone's got to drive to get there.

Eating at the Green Man ... we last ate here on 17/05/2008

The food in the pub and in the separate restaurant is first rate, with the Sunday roasts being top fare. The size of the portions is generous - you get a lot for your buck here. And it's almost always full on a Sunday, so you probably need to book.
