Why it's worth checking out
The Green Man's Arms sits on Lygon Street in Carlton, just north of Melbourne's CBD on the city's famous dining strip. An English-style pub and restaurant, it brings a cosy, characterful gastropub feel to Lygon Street — combining quality pub fare with good drinks and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, the kind of inviting spot that's become a genuine favourite.
The appeal is that combination of quality gastropub-style food, a good drinks offering and a cosy, characterful setting in a prime Carlton location, ideal for a relaxed meal, a drink, a catch-up or settling in for the evening. The welcoming, English-pub character gives it a real point of difference on Lygon Street, and the Green Man's Arms has clearly won over a loyal following.
With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,100 reviews, it's clearly a firm favourite. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and any events vary, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a quality meal or a drink in a cosy, characterful setting, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing why it's so well loved on Lygon Street.
