Lively Irish-style pub in Campo di Marte with a strong beer lineup, simple pub grub, and a buzzy vibe; value is decent though some report service inconsistency and rising prices.
Green Store Pub delivers dependable pub fare and friendly service in a lively neighborhood setting, earning a solid grade B. Consistency challenges with fried items and bread quality prevent higher performance, while respectable beer selection and simple panini anchor its appeal. Best suited for casual meetups and event-night gatherings rather than destination dining.
The scene here leans warm and bustling—think Irish pub energy just off the stadium, with friendly bartenders and a steady flow of pints. One guest summed it up: "Proper pub vibe before the match, staff kept it easy." There is some outdoor seating and a bar-forward room that can get lively on event nights. The cooking sticks to classic pub staples: panini like the roast beef and cheddar combo, fries, mozzarella sticks, nachos, and jacket potatoes. It is solid, unfussy fuel for beer lovers rather than chef-driven fare. Expect a good beer lineup and straightforward snacks; cocktails are sometimes limited or slower when busy. Families fare fine earlier in the evening. Kids can pick from fries and chicken bites, mozzarella sticks, simple toasties, or a mild panino. If your crew needs extensive options or lighter plates, the menu is compact, so plan accordingly.
