Green Spot Pub

Reviews & Tips

  I'm writing this review on behalf of my husband.  The Green Spot is his favorite place in Mount Pleasant to get a bite to eat.  He doesn't even need a menu, he goes straight for the steak hoagie.  I'll admit it's really tasty, it's just too much meat for me.  Some will ask if there is such a thing.  Well their steak hoagie is overflowing with delicious meat, grilled onions and mushrooms, and cheese. It's so big he uses a fork and knife.  I always choose something else on the menu and I'm always pleased.  The servers are VERY friendly.  Ignore all the chain restaurants and check out this local gem!

  This place might turn you off when you first walk in the door.  Mos the tables are plastic, and the menus are plastic.  The place has an abundant amount of beers to chose from.  I got some chili and fried califlower with the fam.  Chili was average, and the califlower was good, but overbreaded.  I ordered the fish n' chips, and the fish was very good.  Not overly breaded, and cooked to perfection.  My fries sucked though.  All the food is smoking hot whenever it comes to your table.  Decent place to grab a quick meal and drink a few beets with some friends

  I've driven past the Green Spot innumerable times in my life...I was always intrigued by the Irish-and-proud exterior and the number of cars that always seem to be crowded into the parking lot...this past week my partner and I finally decided to satisfy our curiosity by checking the place out for lunch.
  
  I have to say -- the interior, while having a certain coziness to it (two fireplaces on either side) , says "drinking bar" more than "eating and drinking bar." And when we stopped in, around noon on a weekday, there were more people who seemed to be there taking the edge off than enjoying lunch.  An interesting clientele, too -- two couples who looked to be professionals at lunch, four pool players, a table of folks who looked like shift workers, a few wayward college students or campus-town hangers-on, two ladies with bouffant hair and abundant makeup who looked like they just walked out of "Hairspray" and a couple elders who looked to be frequent fliers up at the bar.
  
  We ordered off the "menu," a laminated placemat-looking thing -- the shaved prime rib hoagie with sauteed onions and mushrooms, which we split between the two of us (10 ounces of beef makes for a big sammy), onion rings and deep-fried mushrooms. (The menu includes about 8 or so variations of hamburger, numerous sandwiches including two corned-beef customer favorites, chili, soup of the day, and a couple of steak options -- in other words, a basic bar menu.) Our waitress was friendly if a little harried, and told us we were being "so nice" (which made us wonder about the number of not-nice patrons!).
  
  Our sandwich was...good; very good bun, abundant meat, not too dry. The onion rings, which come with that particular sandwich, were beer-battered; nice flavor. The fried mushrooms were tasty but nothing special.
  
  Would we go back for lunch? Probably not. Do we think it would be a fun place to hang out on, say St. Patrick's Day or some other Irish-pride event? Oh, sure.

  There is no better place in MtP than the Green Spot. I spent many a night here with my townie friends and we were treated very well here.
  
  All of my carnivorous friends love their steak hoagies. The bar food in general is good here and they have really well-priced drinks. I really miss being a regular at the Green Spot. The only thing that I don't miss is trying to find a parking spot in the tiny lot!
