The Greene Turtle Sports Bar & Grille® Opens New Delaware Location in Wilmington

The Wilmington location marks the restaurant’s seventh location in Delaware

 

Columbia, MD – The Greene Turtle Sports Bar & Grille® today opens its doors to its seventh Delaware location in Wilmington at 307 Rocky Run Parkway.

 

The first 100 Greene Turtle fans who dine in or order to go will receive a $10 rewards card every month for one year. The restaurant has partnered with The Greene Turtle Lacrosse Club of Delaware, where $1 from every Boardwalk Iced Tea and Boardwalk Lemonade sold during the opening month will be donated to the organization. In addition, the restaurant will hold a silent auction benefitting the A.I. DuPont Pediatric Hospital for the first 30 days after opening where guests can bid on the #1 mug for their Mug Club.

 

The new 6,300 square foot location will seat approximately 230 guests inside the dining room and outside on the patio and will feature 26 beers on tap. The restaurant will create over 85 jobs in the local community.
