Green Man Wines
Rathmines West E, Dublin
Bar in Dublin, Ireland
Why go
Green Man Wines is the right Dublin pick when wine is the reason for going, not an add-on before dinner. Star Wine List recognition gives it a credible edge for bottle-focused drinkers, while the Terenure location makes it especially useful for a southside evening rather than a central bar crawl.
About Green Man Wines
Green Man Wines is a Dublin venue with verified Star Wine List recognition in 2026. The most useful confirmed planning details are its opening hours, casual dress code, city location; beyond that, specific claims about cuisine, dishes, prices, seating, ownership, or service format are not verified here.
Book this for confirmed details, not assumptions
The smart move is to approach Green Man Wines with the verified facts in mind. With no confirmed cuisine type, chef, menu pricing, or signature dishes to lean on, this is not the place to choose if the decision hinges on a full food brief. If you are comparing Dublin options, consider Bar Pez as another named venue to research, or use our full Dublin restaurants guide if dinner is the priority.
For planning, the confirmed schedule matters. Green Man Wines is closed Monday and Sunday; it opens Tuesday from 10:30 AM to 6 PM, Wednesday from 10:30 AM to 7 PM, Thursday through Saturday from 10:30 AM to 10 PM. Choose it when those hours fit your Dublin plans, check directly for any current menu, booking, or service details before building the whole evening around it. If the plan is a different kind of night out, The Bleeding Horse, Whelan's, Frank's, Lobby & Mezzanine, or Bar Pez may be useful comparison points.
The food question: verify the current offer before planning a meal
The safest recommendation is to avoid assuming a specific food format unless a current menu confirms it. That is not a criticism; it is a planning filter. The strongest verified signal is Star Wine List recognition, so the better bet is to treat Green Man Wines as a Dublin venue to research for wine-related interest while confirming any food details directly.
Timing matters more here than hype. The useful later windows are Thursday, Friday, Saturday, when the verified closing time is 10 PM. It is closed Monday and Sunday, so weekend planners should aim for Saturday rather than assuming Sunday availability. No verified booking difficulty, seat count, lunch offer, happy hour, takeaway, delivery, or dietary information is available here.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Green Man Wines presents a calm, quietly sophisticated presence in Terenure. Positioned as a neighbourhood specialist rather than a city-centre footfall chaser, the shop-and-bar trades on careful curation: shelves are foregrounded and conversation about them becomes the main event. Regulars and purposeful visitors create a steady, low-key rhythm; interactions between staff and customers feel informed and reciprocal. Recognition from Star Wine List reinforces the sense of seriousness about wine while the village setting keeps things rooted and unhurried. Overall, the venue reads as an intimate, knowledge-forward wine destination for locals and visitors seeking a considered tasting environment.
Best For
This is a venue best for anyone who comes with a specific interest in wine—whether that's a focused solo visit, a date night with an emphasis on discovery, or a small group outing among friends who appreciate a deep list. The Star Wine List accolade signals a programme meant for exploration and education, so it suits occasions where conversation about bottles and provenance is the point. As a neighbourhood bar and shop, it also works for casual hangouts with a quieter, more attentive service rhythm than larger city wine bars.
Ordering Tips
Treat Green Man Wines as a place to browse and to talk: the shelves are the highlight, and staff knowledge is part of the draw. Arrive with a sense of purpose—whether a style, region, or price point you want to explore—and ask the team for curated recommendations or context about the list that earned Star Wine List recognition. Expect bottle-focused conversation rather than heavy food-led menus, and be prepared to lean on staff expertise to discover under-the-radar producers or thoughtful pairings.

How Green Man Wines compares in Dublin

Lobby & Mezzanine makes more sense for a polished hotel-bar mood, while Green Man Wines is easier to justify for a relaxed, wine-focused meet-up without dressing the night up too much.
For booking difficulty, Green Man Wines is the low-stress choice in this set. Pick it for a southside glass, a bottle with someone who cares about wine, or a calmer alternative to louder Dublin rooms. Pick The Bleeding Horse or Whelan's when atmosphere matters more than the list, Bar Pez when the food side needs to work harder.
