GreenRiver was an American restaurant and cocktail bar located in the Streeterville neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. It was a collaborative effort between Danny Meyer's Union Square Hospitality Group and hospitality group Best Bar in the World.[1][2][3][4] The partnership also produced a smaller bar, Annex.[5] The restaurant highlighted the Irish experience in Chicago, with cocktails named for famous Irish citizens, including Mary Harris Jones and Edward O'Hare.[6]

Despite early success and the receipt of a Michelin Star in both 2017 and 2018, the restaurant closed in early 2018.[7]
