This is a great place to come to watch sports games as they have so many TVs inside. They also have espn+ for those wondering. Our server made great recommendations. The mozzarella logs didn't have much a difference from normal mozzarella sticks but great cheese pull. The Cap'n Crunch calamari really surprised me. It's not overwhelmingly sweet or anything, but has a great crunch and flavor. I ordered extra pickles on my buffalo chicken sandwich and oh boy did they do me right! They added such a perfect amount asa pickle lover. Lastly, the margherita pizza was the only underwhelming bit. It was fine, but I wouldn't recommend it when there's other great options. read more

Everything about Green St Local feels "okay" to me. The food isn't bad, but not anything to write home about. The service has never been bad, but leaves room for improvement. They don't serve tap water and instead serve everyone bottled waters which seems like a waste to me. Lots of TVs and sport options if that's what you're looking for. Overall an okay neighborhood hangout. read more

After a Saturday morning run by the lake, my SO and I stopped here for lunch. The first impression was great--clean and spacious, with a large bar and plenty of TVs showing college football. We were greeted right away and seated quickly. I ordered the chicken and broccoli sandwich with feta, provolone, and aioli on a fresh bun, plus fries. The chicken had a nice crisp without being dry, the broccoli added a fresh crunch, and the toppings tied everything together. The fries were also excellent--crispy and well-seasoned. My SO had the chicken avocado club, which our waitress Mariah recommended on garlic bread instead of the standard option. That swap was spot-on. Speaking of Mariah--she was fantastic. Friendly, attentive, and made us feel well taken care of the whole meal. The only downside was the appetizer pricing. Most options I saw hovered around $20, which felt steep. Our sandwiches, in the mid-$20s, were fairly priced given the quality, but I probably would've tried an app if the menu had more budget-friendly choices. Overall: a great spot for watching sports or enjoying a solid meal. With slightly more approachable appetizer prices, this would have been an easy 5-star experience. read more

Few things can ruin the anticipation of a night out quite like a disastrous dining experience. When planning an evening around a major event, choosing a restaurant is supposed to be the relaxing prelude to the main attraction. It is a time to unwind, enjoy good company, and fuel up for the excitement ahead. Unfortunately, a recent visit to Green Street proved to be exactly the opposite, transforming what should have been a celebratory evening into a masterclass in frustration. Due to an unacceptable lack of operational efficiency and a total breakdown in staff communication, what should have been a pleasant dinner turned into a stressful race against the clock. The restaurant failed not just on a culinary level, but on a fundamental logistical level, proving that it cannot handle the basic demands of standard dinner service. The Seventy-Five Minute Void The primary issue during the visit was the egregious, inexcusable wait time for the food to arrive. After placing the order with the server, a staggering one hour and fifteen minutes passed without a single dish hitting the table. While a busy kitchen is understandable during peak hours, a delay of over an hour for standard restaurant service crosses the line from a minor inconvenience to a fundamental failure in hospitality. A wait time of this magnitude suggests a severe bottleneck in the kitchen, a complete breakdown in organization, or a lack of respect for the guests' time. In the fast-paced world of food service, time is the ultimate currency, and Green Street spent theirs with reckless disregard for the patrons sitting in their dining room. Compounding the frustration was the complete lack of communication and proactive service from the staff. Throughout the seventy-five-minute ordeal, no updates were provided, no reassurances were given, and no apologies were offered for the compounding delay. Good service dictates that if a kitchen is backed up, the wait staff should inform the guests ahead of time so they can adjust their expectations or alter their orders. Instead, the table was left completely in the dark, forced to repeatedly track down staff members just to check on the status of the meal. This passive-aggressive avoidance by the service team only heightened the anxiety in the room, turning what should have been a hospitality-driven environment into an adversarial struggle for basic information. Rushed Plates and Missed Cues This severe delay ultimately disrupted the entire itinerary for the evening, rippling outward to ruin plans made months in advance. The dinner was specifically scheduled to serve as a prelude to a major concert, leaving what should have been an ample two-hour window to eat, relax, and travel to the venue. Because Green Street took so long to prepare the food, the actual meal had to be crammed into a chaotic ten-minute window. The party was forced to scarf down a few bites and leave the restaurant incredibly early just to make the opening act of the show. Instead of enjoying a relaxed, upscale dining experience, the evening was defined by high anxiety, indigestion, and a hurried exit toward the exit doors. Ultimately, a restaurant cannot rely solely on its aesthetic, its location, or its menu descriptions if it fails to deliver the core component of hospitality: timely, reliable service. Green Street's inability to serve food within a reasonable timeframe completely overshadowed the evening and jeopardized plans outside of the restaurant walls. It is a stark reminder that the culinary industry relies heavily on synchronization; when one gear fails, the entire experience grinds to a halt. For anyone operating on a strict schedule, or simply hoping for a dependable meal before a major event, Green Street represents a operational risk that is simply not worth taking. read more

Tucked away in the "trendy" West Loop neighborhood, Green Street Local is a college football bar. With an interesting menu of traditional American cuisine with odd twists it's for most people. I went here to try the Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap. It is not on the sandwich menu but it is offered as a "handful" under the salads. Unfortunately I didn't love it, it had cherry tomatoes, said it had a "spicy Caesar dressing", it was not spicy, it was a thinner dressing, more oily than thick, no croutons, and not enough Parmesan cheese. They have a great drink menu and it is kid friendly (crayons, kids cups, other kids). The French fries are mid. Overall the CCSW was not worth getting. My husband got the Chicken Pot Pie and said that the veggies were "water logged". The staff were kind, and efficient. read more

Green street local is great for watching sports, great tv and seating setup. I've never had bad service there either, everyone is always exceptionally welcoming. The thing I'll say is their pricing is insane. It's not logical what one thing costs compared to another (Chicken Wings $22 vs loaded TATER TOTS for $21) and really everything is too expensive, even for West Loop. read more

Came here to watch the bball playoffs, and while I liked the sports bar atmosphere and number of TVs showing games, the seating was such that it wasn't the easiest to see the game from all seats of the booth we were put in. Made for some awkward neck craning. Top it off and the food and drinks were very meh. I had a glass of wine that looked like 1/2 a glass, though it cost $20. We had the veggie nachos which had scant salsa, guac, and cheese. It was mostly a pile of chips. I tried the fries which were soggy and tasteless. I did like the beet salad and I also tried the grain salad which was tasteless. I know I'm being harsh, but it's definitely a below average sports bar. read more

An excellent place to come and watch the game. We watched the opening Saturday football games here and it was a vibe. The bartender and servers were great. The wrap and fries was pretty standard, nothing to rave about but good quality and flavor. The nachos were pretty solid as well. They had plenty of toppings and a good flavor. I'm tough on nachos so it takes A lot to move me. But still they were very flavorful. read more

Took at least 10 minutes to be waited on after being seated at our table. The waitress was slow but friendly. Our order was prepared incorrectly. We ordered one pizza with different toppings on each half. Somehow we got two pizzas with incorrect toppings. When the food was delivered to the table, we informed them of the error. They did nothing to correct it. The waitress said she thought we ordered two pizzas. We were billed for both pizzas. We asked to speak with a manager. He was very young, smug and basically told us it is a common mistake. Never offered to compensate us for anything. He argued that we were rude. He never offered to fix anything. After much discussion he finally removed one pizza from the bill. He needs to figure out the custom service as he was arrogant and very condescending. I strongly encourage you take a pass on this establishment. I have rarely asked for compensation for mistakes when dining out. In this case the extra pizza was over $30 and had the wrong toppings on it. Unfortunately the waitress didn't get tipped as she was slow, unresponsive to our needs and did not help resolve the issue at all. Chicago has many better places to dine! read more

This establishment is truly awful. We were seated and had to wait over 10 minutes for a server, and I eventually had to ask the hostess if someone could come over. The girl who then came over was not friendly and had no personality. Took our order and only ever came back to check on us once. The food was just as terrible as the service. I didn't think it was possible for a pizza to taste so bland...what they charge for the service and food we got should be a crime. Do yourself a favor and do not go here. Plenty of other places nearby. read more

this place has a lot of potential, but not with this current ownership. it has a great set up and food. BUT the service staff is fully unfriendly, inattentive, and honestly unprofessional. I would not recommend coming here outside of ordering a food drinks - you're better off spending your money at another sports bar read more

I had a reservation for 4 to watch Match Madness & it did the job. There menu is quite long, so I'm sure there is something for everyone. I got the Pilsen/veggie burger. It was a typical veggie burger, nothing great nothing horrible- as expected at a sports bar. They had a good spread of beer available; although the first 2 I wanted were out. I think they were busier than normal given the games, so that may be a rare shortage. I was impressed that our server was able to touch our table a good amount, even with them being very busy. Drinks and everything added up quite quickly, more than I'm used to in the Wicker Park area, but understandable given it's in the West Loop area. I would go again if friends invited me to watch sports, but otherwise I'd stick with other bars that have a bit more exciting vegetarian options. read more

Green Street Local came highly recommended to me by a friend, so a colleague and I visited for happy hour during the week. My experience overall was just okay. I am not sure that I will make this a regular stop in my rotation. We came in on a Wednesday evening after work. The place was pretty empty, so we were seated promptly. There are TV screens covering every inch of the walls, but I appreciated that it wasn't super loud, so it wasn't overwhelming or terribly distracting. Despite it being pretty empty, service was just okay. Our server was very friendly, but she didn't come over often, which made refills hard. They have decent happy hour specials, but we had to specifically ask about them as they weren't listed on our menus. We ordered mozzarella sticks and sprouts to start - both of which were pretty good. Our pizza was not great. The happy hour price of $12, was fine, but if I had to pay the menu price of $22, I would not be happy. It was on par with a cafeteria pizza for me. I had a bit of sticker shock when I got my bill. Green Street Local charges $6 for a fountain soda! That is insane to me. I've never paid that much for a fountain drink anywhere else. The prices are cheaper at Disney World! I should have checked the menu before ordering, so that's on me. Overall, I don't think my experience was worth the price. My experience was mediocre, which is disappointing because it's conveniently located in West Loop. With so many other restaurants nearby, I don't think I'll be back. read more

This is a more quiet spot in the west loop that has typical bar food with lots of options. The ambience itself was fun if you like sports because there are TVs all around so everyone can see a game playing. The food overall though was just okay- again, typical bar food but at a high price! I wouldn't return given the prices of the food. read more

This place gets a solid 5 stars for several very important reasons: the service is so good I started wondering if I accidentally walked into a Michelin-starred spa, and the food? Chef's kiss. I haven't eaten my way through the whole menu yet (working on it), but everything I've tried so far has been absolutely delicious. Now, let's talk about the real issue here: my beloved Malört. I love Malört. I order it willingly. Some say that makes me brave; others say unhinged. Either way, $15 for a shot feels like I'm paying rent in Chicago again. Maybe lower the price a tad? Help a Malört-lover out? That said, I'll still be back--probably with friends I'm trying to impress and/or punish. read more

This is a great neighborhood sports bar with so many tvs I love it. Their service is friendly and attentive from bartenders, waitresses, and bus staff. Their jalapeño chicken wings are fire and can't go wrong with a glass of bacon. Check them out for game day. read more

Went in here on a weekend day when it opened. I was in there to watch a specific game that had a tv guide partially obstructing the view, and I politely went up to the owner/GM to ask if he would be able to remove the guide from the screen. Before I could even finish my sentence, the guy barked at me to 'GO SIT DOWN, THANKS.' So loud, that other bar patrons turned around wondering where this was coming from. After walking back to my seat, pretty surprised by the exchange, and only feet from him, I hear him talk s*** about me to a waiter that came up to check on him, even sounding like he used a derogatory term when referring to me. For a management person in the hospitality space to treat a paying customer like that, especially given the simple request I had, is pretty shocking, and could probably benefit from additional customer service training. Will not be racing back. read more

Good spot to watch a game and pretty good food. The buffalo chicken pizza was good and the prices are pretty good for west loop.

Edith took care of us from the moment we walked in to the moment we left to continue our night. Drinks were very tasty and with plenty of TVs you aren't missing a sporting event here. the food we ordered was very good and again the service we got while here was fantastic. all in all a very good experience, will be back again. read more

I recently visited with my family and friends and thought I'd share our experience. While our server was friendly and the food was fine, we were left thoroughly disappointed by the surprisingly unfriendly attitude of one of the employees by the bar toward our children. If you have a family, avoid this place. It is not kid friendly. While I understand our kids were running around, they were simply being kids and were abruptly and rudely told to stop. What followed was a noticeable lack of patience, complete with multiple eye rolls, which made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. The whole interaction felt less like a request for decorum and more like an exercise in condescencation. On a Saturday at 12pm, with an empty restaurant, do better. It's 2025. In the service industry, it's important to remember that kids are, well, kids. Humble yourself and show more grace and a lot less attitude. This will unfortunately be our first and last visit. There are a lot better options in the West Loop that are more kid friendly. You're better off heading to The Vig. read more

We came from out of town and wanted to enjoy a football game. The server did change it to what we wanted but once a group who made reservations came the changed the TV to the channel they wanted and never put our game on another TV after asking two servers. Then they just ignored us the rest of the evening. read more

Nice local spot but a bit overpriced for what you get. We sat outside and service was fine. The food is just okay but they do have a pretty extensive menu. Mozz sticks were cold when they arrived. They have daily happy hour deals so it's a fun spot if you can enjoy those. read more

Listen, any bar that sells a glass filled with maple bacon has my COMPLETE attention! I'll get to that in a minute. My partner really loves sports bars with huge tv's, so a last minute yelp search lead us to check out this establishment. We went on a Monday night and it was pretty empty, I'm sure it being freezing cold and Covid restrictions had a lot to do with that. I actually preferred that it wasn't as busy, the bar was clean and staff were very pleasant. There are tvs all over to watch sports which was great. Shoutout to our server Oliver, he was very nice and kept small talk with us. Ok now onto the food....it was good! The food came out fresh and hot (another perk of it being a slow night) and had excellent flavor. My burger and my partner's chicken sandwich were cooked perfectly. But cmon, you know the star of the show was the glass of bacon! I was hesitant to spend $10 for bacon but they give you 1lb of thick cut bacon, seasoned with maple and pepper. It's such good bacon I cannot stress enough lol. The drinks were good too, as my bio says I am a whiskey girl and was pleased to see a full and well kept bar. I will be back and you know I'm going to order more . read more

Love this local bar! I've been a few times for drinks and light food, and I always come away satisfied. Their outdoor seating is cozy and peaceful on weekday evenings, and on weekends they are fun and lively. Inside they have a ton of TV screens showing lots of different sports. I recommend coming here for the weekday specials. They have great deals on draft beers and food on weekday evenings. The staff have also been very friendly. We had some beers and the chips and salsa. The salsa had a nice kick to it! And we also had the broccolini--highly recommend as a side dish or snack. It's hard to find broccolini anywhere, and they season and roast it so perfectly. It's the right amount of saltiness and has great texture. It actually paired nicely with our beer. read more

Really like this sports bar close to my workplace, great selection of drinks and food on the menu. I snatched up a $7 Moscow mule deal they were having. Drinks are a little on the pricey side (~$17) so I definitely appreciate a little happy hour special. Bartender was quick to take my order and bring the bill. Will definitely be back to explore more deals! read more

If I could give them a zero I definitely would. First, Lexi our server was inattentive. Secondly, our order was wrong. We asked for a pizza with half mushroom, green pepper (which was on the menu) and the other half sausage and green pepper. Instead we got two pizzas with no green pepper at $29 bucks a piece. We told the young man who brought us our pizza and he said he would send over the server. Didn't happen. Finally we asked her if we could talk to her. Told her the problem and she said sorry. No attempt to make things right. So we asked for the manager. He came over with an attitude. Told us that we ate it so we have to pay for it. (Because we were starving and it took some long to get someone to to pay attention) Called us rude and was very very unprofessional. He argued with us until he finally said he was trying to make this right but by we were too rude. I wouldn't spend one penny in this place. The worst of the worst! Not to mention we had to ask for a server after waiting more than 15 minutes when we got there! read more

Nice bar with good wings. Green Street Local has a cool setup with plenty of televisions to enjoy the game. I think they'd be more popular in a better location. They sit just South of the action on Green Street where you'll find Green Street Smoked Meats, High Five Ramen and a host of other great restaurants. Over the years I've been a few times and have tried most of their menu. The kitchen could use a menu refresh. The only standouts are the jalapeño marinated wings. If you're in the area this is a solid option to catch sporting events. Pro Tip: Stick to beer. The cocktails are overpriced and not well crafted. read more

We used to love Green Street Local and go there all the time. It seems that they have kept the prices high and removed all sides. So I just paid $22 for two small tacos - one with three shrimp and one with just two shrimp. No broccoli on the side anymore! It's not worth it! read more

For a sports bar, green street local has some phenomal food! I love that they have vegetable sides like broccolini and Brussels sprouts, which are both affordable and well cooked. Definitely check out their weekly specials on their website -- they have happy hour deal offerings which rotate depending on the day of the week. I went on Thursday so I got the GSL nachos and a Zombie Dust. The nachos are good for 2 people, and has plenty of melted cheese, jalapenos, sour cream, and guacamole. I've never had to make a reservation here, you can just walk in and get seated. When it's nice and sunny out they have tables set up outside to enjoy your food. read more

Yesterday late afternoon my husband & I had dinner at Green Street Local in the West Loop for the first time. We had great service & a great dinner. However as we were sitting at the bar we witnessed a vicious verbal assault from the owner or manager against our waiter. This was right in front of customer. So unprofessional. I was really shock up after witnessing this incident. We will never return if this is how staff is treated! read more

A group of coworkers and I went to this place on a Tuesday night. It was empty when we got there at 6pm. So many TV's! I suppose this would be good if you want to watch something but seemed a little overkill. The food was amazing! I had Da Meatball sandwich and the meatballs were so good. The wings were extra crispy. The tater tot appetizer was a little disappointing because most of the dish was seared to the bottom of the pan. The reason I dropped a star is because the waitress stood at one end of the table to take our drink orders instead of going around. We had a table of 8 so the people at one end had to basically yell out our drink order. It felt like because a 20% tip was already guaranteed, she wasn't putting much effort into providing the best service. She spent more time with the group at the next table that had fewer people. Also, there was a $14 environmental fee added to our bill. I have no idea what this was supposed to cover but that is pretty high! And of course the tip was 20% of food & tax, plus the $14 environmental fee. read more

Green Street local is a great place to catch a game. They have enough TVs where anything you could want to see is guaranteed to be on. The service was fantastic.

I'll definitely return. read more

Huge fan of this place. Can be both a casual date spot or a great place to watch the game with buddies. Food is solid and sold at a fair price.
