Cannot answer the question from The_Final_Arbiter , I asked at the bar and they said he wasn’t in on the pre Christmas evening of my visit.
Who was in was an interesting mix of salty builder types, students and suited city types. Some of which may have been intelligent, but quite a few in packs were braying loudly and trying their hardest to prove that the expression used by twineyboy below is an oxymoron.
Yes it’s a very large spoons on two levels, a large and sprawling underground bar area and then a smaller bar at ground level.
It’s housed in the small shopping area underneath the James Stirling designed eyesore at 1 Poultry, a building which was voted the fifth ugliest building in the City by Time Out readers. A stunning fact, when you consider that Time Out readers think there are four uglier buildings than this one.
And as for The Green Man, a typical Spoons décor and a bar with 12 handpumps dispensing the usual house ales and a fair choice of Christmas specials. I’ve been it a lot better Spoons, but then I’ve also been in a lot worse…

Was in here a few days ago and thought it was great.
Nice relaxed atmosphere upstairs and lots of hustle and bustle downstairs.
Good city pub

Cant believe I've never posted this pub before even though it's my office local. Typical city Spoons so ignore the anti-spoons fan club comments. It does what it says on the tin. If it's so bad whys it always packed with intelligent city types enjoying reasonable priced food, decent real ale and reasonable surroundings. I'm not a member of the Spoons fan club and will criticise where criticisms due but I do feel that some BITE folk smell a 99p pint and become a bit paranoid. The GM is safe to visit - honest

Dropped in during the W'spoons beer festival - disappointingly few beers on so didn't stay long. Has novelty value in being subterranean and it's handy for the tube but that's all you can say for it.
