The Old Green Tree is a public house on Green Street in Bath, Somerset, England. Grade II listed, the building dates to the 1716, and was extended to the rear in 1926. A beam across the ceiling in the main bar denotes the original back wall of the original building. It was refurbished by local architect W. A. Williams.
In June 1716, milliner John Cornish purchased part of a former bowling green in his construction of Green Street.
The interior doors each bear numbers which were used to identify the rooms for licensing purposes: the lounge is "1", the front bar is "2", the smoke room is "3" and the cellar door is "4".
The pub was a free house until 1928, when Lamb Brewery became the landlord. The pub's Green Tree Bitter is brewed locally by Blindman's Brewery. The leasehold and freehold owner is Wellington.
The pub was named UK City Pub of the Year by The Good Pub Guide in 2005 and 2008. The Daily Telegraph named it Somerset's Pub of the Year for 2024.
Tim Bethune took over the lease in 2014.
