Welcome
to 3Greens. We
are a family operated restaurant dedicated to providing the highest possible quality
at a realistic price. We look beyond the aerodrome to provide a calm and relaxed
environment for all who visit us. We see ourselves as a part of the aerodrome
and the wider community as witnessed by our charity involvements, our quiz
nights and our Jazz brunches - the last two especially supported and enjoyed by
our neighbours from the wider locality. We are an inclusive place - children being
especially welcome, though we do insist that, for their own safety and out of
respect for fellow customers, they remain at their table and do not run around
the restaurant.
Check out our events page where you'll find details of upcoming events - especially
the Sunday Jazz Brunch sets - we've added an 'Add to Favorites' button on the
events page for your convenience. You can download a printable pdf of our upcoming
gigs here.

Kwabena
on TV Some of our Sunday regulars will remember the brilliant young vocalist
Kwabena Adjepong who has performed for us. Kwabs was recently involved in a project
for BBC2 called 'Goldie's Band: by royal appointment' where a group of young musicians
from markedly differing backgrounds were thrown together as a band to perform
a one-off gig at Buckingham Palace for Prince Harry.
Here is Kwabs'
solo spot: I think we can safely say the boy nailed it!
We're
delighted to say that Kwabs will be back with us again soon - check out the events
page for his and all the other performers' gigs. They're all amazing and all for
free!
Gabrielle
Ducomble For those yet to see our latest star vocalist,
here is a video clip of Gabrielle (and her band) recording her latest album, J'ai
Deux Amours.....
Alicia
Hart with Wayne Martin and Jon Russell Here's
another clip which features three more of our Sunday regulars: Alicia Hart, Wayne
Martin (trumpet) and Jon Russell (on bass here but playing 6 string guitar when
at 3G).....
Al
Scott and Henry Gilbert Two more of our favorites, Al Scott (piano)and
Henry Gilbert (bass) seen here with drummer Marco Q.....
A
WWII North American Aviation P51 Mustang completing a low pass at Elstree - what
a glorious noise! (Thanks to Mick in the tower for the 'heads
up').
TV
personality and author Carol Vordeman and Lord Sebastian Coe were
recently at 3Greens twice in one afternoon! They came in prior to and after their
helicopter flight in G-TOPC (belonging to our friend and neighbour, David Goodman)
to view the progress of the construction of the Olympic Village at Stratford.
Lord Coe had pressing matters to deal with but Miss Vordeman stayed to chat with
Caroline and Laura (above).
Helen
Skelton (left), presenter of BBC TV's Blue Peter, visits 3Greens. After
an exhausting day cycling a rickshaw (with a huge tyre attached) up and down the
apron for Sports Relief, Helen and the film crew ended the days filming with a
well earned cup of tea and cake having earlier joined us for lunch.
And
most recently we were twice visited by national treasure, TV presenter, sporting
hero and tireless charity worker (for which he received his Knighthood), Sir
Ian Botham (right; with Laura) together with his wife Kathy (Lady Botham)
and son, Liam - also an ex-professional sportsman and now a TV presenter for Sky
Sports.
