Lively Poblenou gastropub for big burgers, ribs and sports; strong hospitality, fair pricing, but service consistency and occasional billing disputes need attention.
Green Room delivers reliable gastropub comfort with strong food quality in burgers and ribs, backed by genuinely friendly and attentive service that makes match nights feel welcoming. However, inconsistent execution on salads and fish preparation and occasional billing issues prevent a higher grade. The pleasant rambla location and generous portions offer solid neighborhood value, but lack the distinction needed for grade A territory.
On Poblenou’s rambla, Green Room buzzes like a proper match-night hangout: warm and bustling with friendly staff who will hunt down the right channel and keep beers flowing. One diner put it simply: they made us feel like family. Portions lean heroic, so expect XL burgers and a mountain of fish and chips in a space that stays lively during games. The cooking is classic pub comfort—burgers, ribs, fish and chips—aimed at satisfaction over show. Think juicy patties, hearty ribs and straightforward sides rather than cheffy flourishes. When the line is humming, food lands hot and generous; on off nights, a salad or batter can miss. Best results come with burgers and ribs, plus a cold local beer for easy value. Families do well here. Kids can tackle classic burgers and fries, wings, or nachos; desserts like chocolate cake and ice cream seal the deal. There is a vegetarian burger and salads, but strict diets will find limited alternatives. It gets crowded at kickoff, so arrive early if you need a quieter table.
