Nowadays, they don't provide you with Cheeseling Biscuits which act as a side dish, when one is consuming alcohol.
Great place to hang out with friends. Quality of food is also good. Fish items are specially very good.Sorry ladies, you are not allowed....
One of the Best punjabi restaurants in Bhawanipur area. Singapore chicken, chicken bharta, egg tadka, green peas chicken are some of their famous dishes. Absolutely love their food. Insanely delicious.
Very tasty Indian dishes
I order egg tadka and rumali rotis and it's taste is awesome
Not so rich and tastes really great
Quality and quantity worth your money
good food at slightly higher cost
Last weekend ordered food from this outlet.I ordered butter chiken,paneer butter masala.
Both were quite tasty .Overall good restaurant.Specially the butter chicken was highly tasty
Ordered mix noodles and chilli chicken. One thing iI have to say they food was the best companion for booze but teste was no doubt good. Got chicken lever in the noodles which is odd. Quantity need to be increased.
We took foods from green palace a number of times. I love their Chicken Bharta specially and other dishes are equally good. Amount of foods are enough and the prices are also affordable.
Food quality is too good. For chinese you can order from Green Palace.
very good . taste is very good .
Spectacular gravy noodles. Very good quantity. Was pleasantly surprised to be honest. Keep up the good work.
very good quality of the dishes.
Good food at reasonable price
it was mouth watering 😋😋 I ordered reshmi kabab, chicken lollipop, n chicken and tandoor 🍖🍗
Well, one of the more difficult ones to review. Being an old styled and old fashioned bar cum restaurant definitely has it's plus points. But again, I have never seen a lady walk into this one for the long time that I have been visiting it. Which isn't a problem for them, because they have placed themselves as a male dominated bar, the old styled way, and there isn't much wrong with it.
Coming back to the original point though, they have amazing Kebabs, prompt service, and good Concentration of the alcohol they serve at very reasonable rates.
Good ambience, great place to hang out with your mates, and again, serious good food would accompany your drinks, to make you give a more tipsy feeling than you would usually have.
Food was good. But delivery was late
I like to visit here..........lots of people...... lot's of shout.....l like to suggest if they add some light music it will be very nice......all the stuff are very nice...... service is good.........
I took home delivery for three items in two days. Chili mushroom, Schezwan fish and Sweet and Sour fish. All are very good to taste. A little less oily would have been better for the last two items. I ordered thru Zomato and delivery was on time.
i could call it my second home in past.. visiting this place for last 20 years...its primarily a bar for peaceful hard drinker but i must say the food of green palace could compete any top notch food joint..specially the fish finger..chicken lollypop..chicken with garlic and cheeze baked and so on..its a nostalgia for me and many more like us.
Open for all? Or it's a men rasturent? I want to know? It's a family rasturent or only men rasturent?on of my friend said me its a men rasturent?
This is a hidden gem of Kolkata! Really in love with the Indian food here from the rotis to the dal, everything was spot on! A must try for every food lover. Don't be judgmental of the place just try the food!
Delivery right on time.. food = It tasted absolutely perfect.. no point of dissatisfaction..
This is a bar! Period! If you are planning to go with family, don't. People go there for alcohol, which is reasonable. Food is decent and is moderately priced. Average place but ok if you are planning to booze party with friends
My friend told me about green palace i was reluctant at first seeing as how it seemed a bit shady but I am happy he talked me into it. A nice new place to go great prices on liquor and decent Chinese food. Great ambience wonderful food. Overall great place to visit
Really a place where you can actually let yourself loose after a hectic work schedule, extremely pocket friendly, awesome food, well behave staff, crowd is quite decent, this has got a old world charm. Many people may dislike the ambience, but true wings will surely like the place.
A cozy place to drop in with friends. Relax. Chill. Adda. Golpo. Great food. Drinks. All at v v reasonable price. The staff are friendly. Honest. One feels at home. Nothing too fancy but you feel you are home.
We had Katla maach bhaja ... wow... and some fish kebabs.
Countless time I have been there in GP......I just love this place......Welcome you all to come at this booze joint......I assure you that you will also like this place.Try any food.....all are just delicious.

Another cheap watering hole of the city. Not a classy joint but good massy location. Try the foods that are tasty and quite a good time pass.
Visited today evening. Awsome place. Ambience is so nice. We oedered tuborg strong beer, royal stag and chicken pakoda. Food quality is good.
Fair prices alchohol & excellent chicken liver. Thats GP for me. Been here 2 times so far and both times the experience was very good. Placed at a very convinient location near Netaji Bhawan metro station, its a favourite place for boozers.
Cheap liquor, good food, and improved ambience; green palace has maintained it's position as one of the most popular booze joints in the city. We say at the AC section which was pretty relaxing, though the tables are a bit cramped for space. The waiters are decent and service is good. The food is pretty good which may come as a surprise even, given that cheap watering holes don't really offer great food. Drinks are decently priced. There is no designated ankling area, which can be improved. Overall, it's good for an evening of drinks with friends/ colleagues.
this isn't a high profile place by the literal meaning. but i just love this. females are prohibited here. i don't know why, but that's it's exclusivity. great food specially tandoor, cheap liquor, chilled ac, lots of space but lots of patrons too. they will never stop coming here. ultimate to hang out with guys.
Located near Netaji Bhavan metro station opposite to Tripty. The booze is the cheapest of all the bar at Ashutosh Mukherjee Road. One of the oldest bar in Bhawanipur area. Starters are really good (fish finger & pepper fish must try). Service is little bit slow, because anytime you go there, you will see crowded all over. Reservation must. Great place to booze & hangout with friends after office. Yes, definitely will visit again.
I would rate this place high simply becoz it serves delicious food....and also crowd is decent ....
No girls r allowed...
A pockt frndly place....servc is also good...n dey hav huge seating capacity....
A great place to relax aftr work....
It was my first time here. Cheap booze. Friendly service. Neat and clean. Pocket friendly. Great place to hangout with friends over drinks and adda.
The cheap AC bar in Kolkata. The Chicken Liver Fry is delicious. Best place for hangout with friends for drink in cheap. All other not so good
This is a bar which I've been going to since college days. The alcohol is very very reasonable to say the least. Though u wont find a pub like atmosphere, still this is a place where people drop in returning from office , have a few drinks. Till date, all the food items I've had here is just outstanding. My all time fav food item is chicken lollipop, white chicken and pepper fish. Another thing to mention is that this is one of the few places I've been til date where u would get your food item at half plates which is very important for people who end up going there alone and don't have to order the full plate knowing well that they won't be able to finish it and pay for it.
A no nonsense kind of place..... The old non AC section on ground floor and the AC sections on the first floor. It is evident that the place has grown organically over time, the scattered sections and the stairs tell it all. I have been there decades back and revisited with a friend. The food is good and some of the side dishes are truly top class. Surprisingly, they don't serve fish finger which is such a pulsar side dish. Nothing to say about the drinks. Service is business like. No women allowed. I like the place and the approach.

There are places in Kolkata, the review of which is incomplete if the history is not mentioned. If you get back to early ninety's then after crossing Park Street while heading towards South Kolkata, there was hardly any bar cum restaurants to locate, only excepting "Green Palace", and its competitor " Tripty", both of which are located at the heart of Bhawanipore, bang opposite to each other.
Tripty's ambience was somehow not liked by many, and that's why "Green Palace" (popularly known as GP) was a very popular and preferred watering hole of the region, which used to attract huge footfall, and since then it has been a place which is catering to its patrons with delicious food, and wide offering of drinks at SHOESTRING price. And today, GP has became one of the heritage destinations of Kolkata, which has won the heart of the stalwarts, they catered in yesteryears, and at the same time became a buzzword to a huge chunk of the new generation. Even, it is heard that the GP that we see today is a renovated one as it was once damaged severely during the riot, after Indira Gandhi assassination.
Today, watering holes and drinking dens are cropped up at every nook and corner of the city, but surprisingly, GP is still shining with all of its pride and its head held high.
The interiors are designed like an old castle and the very dim lights inside creates a semi dark ambience which resembles a vintage touch of an old historic architecture. Even when the place is crowded, the ambience never is so loud as people walking in speaks in gentleman's tone, and the crowd is descent. The service staffs are very polite, well mannered, and very efficient in their duty.
So far the food and drinks are concerned, this is a place where you can treat your taste buds with some mouth watering delights, and off course drink to your soul, and everything on a shoestring budget.
And, an exceptional dish of this place, which is a must try is "Chicken Prosenjit". Not only its finger licking delicious, but also it is prepared as a humble endeavor to honor the legendary superstar PROSENJIT CHATTERJEE(alias BUMBA DA).
A must visit place for all the foodies and booze aficionados out there. Cheers.
This place is located right on the main road couple minutes away from Netaji Bhavan metro station. The atmosphere is a bit sketchy and I am not sure if one would be too comfortable to sit in there for an extended period of time. It's not a place to go chill and enjoy a beer or a drink. However the food is a different story. Kebabs, tadka, chicken dishes are absolutely mind blowing. Great taste and flavour in all of them. When it comes to kebabs the meat is juicy and tender. The flavouring in the rest are immaculate. Not sure about going and chilling In but it's a place to pick up food for sure.
After Xam, yesterday night Me n the Gang came here for the 1st time.... Pocket friendly various drinks can be found here.... Ambianc was OK OK good type... Food was mind blowing. Dried Garlic Chicken was super. Reshmi kabab was outstanding.... Must visit..... Location is outside of Netaji Bhavan Metro station.
Been to this place only once , sat downstairs , small and cozy place with a small TV for the game and news lovers to keep a eye on it , the food they serve is so so .. The delivery experience for mine what I have faced is little delayed ..
Its a bar not that like its competitor tripty which stands exactly opposite to it, it now expands into three part two of them have ac upstairs n one on d groundfloor is non a c , most of d customers r regulars so waiters seldom pay attention to those who bang in suddenly however service is not bad n quality of food is not bad either
Although most patrons of Green Palace are actually looking for a dirt cheap bar, there was a time in my childhood when outside food for me was synonymous with Green Palace. I used to love the aroma of the chilli chicken and fried rice when my dad brought them home. Many a Saturday night has gone by when it became a tradition for us to order from here! Let’s leave the nostalgia here! Coming to the food, its old school north Indian and the Chinese found here has an inherent vintage Calcutta touch to it! Few of my personal favorites that I can recall are Dry Chilli Chicken, Singapore Chicken, Pepper Chicken, Chicken Fried Rice and Chicken Kassa. There is plenty more to cater to the budget minded veggie and seafood lovers too. I urge you guys to come to this place for the food as well, because people generally look down on this joint with an uni-dimensional point of view. Happy Dining guys! Enjoy your food!
I have been here for almost 50 times in last two years. And i must say it surpasses all the bars i have visited till date. This JOINT is an cornucopia of drinks & non-veg side dishes. There is a non-ac section downstairs and two ac section upstairs. The drinks are cheap. The food is excellent. Specially mentionable are Chilly Chicken Dry, Manchurian Chicken, Singapore Chicken, Pepper Chicken, Tangri Kabab and Fish Bangkok. A great attraction is the complementary part along with Drinks!! (A plate of onions, shredded ginger dipped in vinegar and salt) And that's what makes the consumption of drinks even more interesting and food even more palatable.
Its a must for everyone who enjoy a nice drink!!! The staff and management are extremely cooperative and customer centric. For Smoking you do not need to step out of the bar as there are places to smoke!!!!
CONS
1. The place is good for only male members.
2. Wash room on ground floor is ill maintained. However washrooms in ac sections are quite good.
So a great experience and worth every penny spent there.
This old man hasn't changed. The decor / the waiters / the TV on the corner showing sports channels and the price. South Kolkata's only value for money joint. On weekdays you have to wait & strand in queue as this is the favourite watering hole for all office goers returning home South. We had some friends who are settled abroad now coming over & decided to take a trip down memory lane. So the nine of us packed into the metro and came down exploring on a rainy sunday. Not disappointed not at all disappointed. Had some light drinks & snacks. The snacks tasted so awesome that some of us decided for parcel packing also. We had boneless fish in black pepper and the old hit Chicken Lollypop. All in all a great experience.
In the early nineties after you crossed esplanade and park street going towards South Calcutta there were no restaurants with a bar license except Green Palace or GP as popularly known and the Tripty's bang opposite which did not have the ambience of a proper bar.It is unbelievable now,but this fact helped GP attract customers from all parts of South Kolkata,who could not afford the five star hotels or did not have the fancy club memberships.The loyal customer base was also helped by the affable owner Mr Ajeet and his band of loyal and fabulous waiters.
GP was a watering hole.It was not a restaurant which served drinks.It was a Bar which also served food.And very good food it was.And is.....
Chicken Butter Masala
Chicken Bharta
Mutton kasha
Tandoori Chicken
Chilli chicken
Chicken and prawn chowmein
These just about sums my culinary experience in GP.And after a couple of beers or whiskeys with close buddies in the air conditioned upper floor,loud,cosy and packed they did taste much better than what they would have otherwise.Also very reasonably priced and very personalised service made GP the legend it deserves to be.
Now with the proliferation of bars,pubs,drinking dens in every nook and corner of the city,they loyal customer base might have wavered but as in the changing norms of nature,I saw a brand new kind of young customers patronising this place......the legend lives on!!!!!
Located near to Netaji bhavan metro station, this restaurant provides food & alcohol at the best (read cheapest) price on entire south kolkata region. The ambience of the restaurant is a bit above average. The food quality is quite good. The only reason I didn't put a 4.5/5 star to this is because the space of the restaurant is not as much as required for a restaurant where almost all the tables remain full during the peak hours of the day.
a good place.pub like environment in the ground floor.food is very good.but not consistent.ask the waiter for todays special.wll be a better idea.overall must try.pila dal and roti is must try.mutton batter fry,mutton kassa,mutton liver kassa als must try.reshmi kabab and tandoori roti.fried katla/rui fish(not fish fry)....don't try-fish begam bahar,fish finger,prawn(previously it was awesome,the prawn item,maybe due to cost nowadays it is not that good)tetoteller also must try this place for the food,they just started a free home delivery in bhowanipore area
We visited today for a meet-up of 4 friends, and we fairly enjoyed the food and atmosphere of the restaurant.
The area has several different options to sit as a couple, family, team and of course a group of friends.
It has a variety of starters as much as we completed our lunch with a distinguishable set of offerings from the same.
They serve hard and soft drinks both at reasonable prices.
Nice place to hangout with family & friends. Well decorated bar … Professional & friendly staff. Budget friendly drinks. I was there with one of my friends. Fish kabab was just awesome. Highly recommending it with drinks.
Nice ambience. Services was on the slower side given that it was a weekday and less people present.
Quality of food has improved a lot and its really great!
Overall a good place to hang out.
Very cost effective. Value for money. Warm behaviour of service persons.
Taste of the food is undoubtedly great! We had ordered Veg Fried Rice and Chilli Chicken (Gravy) and the taste of both the dishes was just delicious. Also my friends took Tandoori Roti accompanied by Chicken Bharta and that was delicious too. So, my final verdict for this restaurant would be quite positive. In case of downside, I'd say - there's no comfortable parking lot in it; you got to use the side of the road - however if you are familiar with Kolkata and how dense it is, then you will understand that it's a kind of "No Choice" scenario for the restaurant authority. So, do visit this place if you are hungry and looking for good quality food nearby.
My old joint. Love this place for its honest dealings. Friendly too. Not very hi fi. Food is also lovely.
Bit of a quaint surrounding since I doubt you'd get any female or family visiting the place. It's neat, furniture & other get up is apt with washroom quite cleanly maintained. Price of liquor is reasonable and food is really yum, especially the mutton dishes. Service quick and staff courteous. This joint usually visit when my son is here from overseas, every year or so. Overall satisfaction from food, liquor and pocket point of view.
Chana masala,chicken bharta and fish ginger garlic was delicious with roti and rice.
Iconic Resturant of Kolkata... Biryani and Pasinda Kabab must try. Aminia special also a must try.
The splendid experience of drinking here will obviously add some "Ummm" reaction if you order a plate of White Chiken...Affordable price of both food n drink....
Moderate place. Environment is moderate. Not very attractive or eye soothing. But food quality is excellent. Fish items and chicken items are delicious. Specially 'Fish Bangkok' and "Chicken Prasenjit" is very famous. Ask the waiter for these two items sometime the menu exclude these two but these are served as per request. Bar is chip. Not that costly. Costly brands not available like jameson or jim beam. Beer always kingfisher available. Service is good when crowd is less. User friendly place. Cost effective.
Food is delicious. Rest all also fine.
One of most cheapest restaurant and bar in the prime location. Rates of food and drinks are damn cheap.
The location is 1 min walkaway from Netaji Bhaban metro station.
Ac and Non ac seating arrangements are there separately.
For family purpose that is not a suitable pLace as per my opinion.
The best place to chill out.. really loved the vibes...
It used to be our favourite drink place for more than 25 years. In all the years, the waiter Subol da hasn't aged a bit. The food is very good and they are really honest.
