About Green Mill:

A legend has to start somewhere, right? Ours began in St. Paul, MN in 1935. For forty years Green Mill was a neighborhood staple and it’s still the oldest licensed pub in St. Paul. On a trip to Chicago in 1975, Green Mill’s owners fell in love with deep dish pizza and added their version to the menu. What happened next was pizza history. Word spread. Lines formed. Awards were won. A legend was born. Soon pizza lovers throughout the upper Midwest could visit their own local Green Mill for a slice of history. The menu grew too. And our made-from-scratch pasta, sandwiches, and hand-crafted cocktails became fan favorites. At Green Mill, we’re proud of our neighborhood roots. It may have started with deep dish pizza, but it’s our deep commitment to quality food, genuine service, and our guests that keep the Green Mill legend growing.
