The Green Beetle is a charming restaurant located in the heart of the city, offering a unique dining experience. The menu features a delicious bacon jam burger and a BBQ plate that has received high praise, especially for a bar. There are also vegetarian options available, and the customers appreciate the incredible diversity in the menu, particularly the burgers. The portion sizes are noted to be great, and the building's eclectic design fits its name. The prices are reasonable, creating a cozy atmosphere and a welcoming local environment.
The food is described as amazing, with specific menu items including the catfish, blue burger, fried green BLT, and smokehouse burger. Everything came out hot and did not disappoint. The chicken tenders are noted to be "seasoned to the GODS," and the Beetle burger is a favorite, though some fries are described as "over-fried" and "greasy." The restaurant serves as the best Dive Bar Downtown, and customers recommend catching a Griz game there while grabbing the burger with bacon jam.
The service is friendly and attentive, with the bartenders described as the sweetest. One customer noted that while it looked a lil sketchy coming in, they were pleasantly greeted by the waitress. It is seen as a fun stop where a welcoming local atmosphere creates a place worth visiting.
