This wasn't my first choice for dinner but I'm so glad that I was outvoted! This is part of the American Legion so I'm happy to support them whenever I can. Upon entry, there was a bar and it was very crowded and a little loud. But everyone was super friendly (and respectful) and seemed to be having an awesome time. (Might have stopped in if the entire family hadn't been with me!) A short walk down the hall was Betty Bombers...all real American food. The artwork was awesome, especially since both of my grandfathers were in WWII, and some of it looked familiar. The table ordered everything from salads, to a HUMUNGOUS hotdog for the kid (he originally wanted two and the waitress told him to start with one LOL), cheeseburgers, a pastrami sandwich, and a ration size portion of steak and cheese fries for me. I really liked how they offered smaller portions for a lot of their items, especially since we had a huge lunch. Everyone's food came out but mine. When I pointed it out to the waiter (who didn't take our order), he went to check and said it was his mistake and he would bring it out shortly. It took less than five minutes to come out and he offered me a milkshake for the wait. I had already had Leopold's that day but my cousin hadn't so he got a Mint Chocolate Chip milkshake. He really liked it. All of the food was good. I wanted to point out that my steak and cheese fries said ribeye and queso in the description. Yes, that was probably ribeye (it was tender and delicious) and while it was technically queso, Cheez whiz would have been a more apt description. That's ok, because it was good. Overall, a wonderful experience. I really liked how the waiter took accountability and fixed it. Very much appreciated. I would 100% return. read more

I can't believe I've been to Forsyth Park dozens of times and never even knew this place was here! Fun 1940s ambience and fantastic food! Service was super easy and fast. We will definitely be coming here again, loved the food! We had the small size onion rings, I can't remember what they call it, but definitely a small serving. The sandwiches were big though. I had the beef brisket sandwich with country gravy and I cannot rave over it enough! A very substantial sandwich, I couldn't finish mine. He had the Buffalo chicken sandwich, also wonderful. We both had the coleslaw, a very generous portion! From now on, this will be THE stop for lunch out at Forsyth Park! read more

burger was ok, ac was so hot it was nauseating i think this place also gave me food poisoning bc ever since i ate here i've felt like absolute crap. won't be returning read more

Cool Atmosphere!! Very convenient to Forsyth Park and parking around is free on the street. Food was quaint- flavors nice, but only recommend putting more jam on the burgers (add on is 85cents). Cheese curds were delicious; just very small portions. Overall, glad we visited- just would say increase portions for prices read more

We have come here while on vacation for many years. Last year our experience was less than ideal and we almost didn't come back this year, but we decided to give them another shot. The food was AMAZING. The owner was working his tail off taking orders, cleaning tables, and making sure everyone was satisfied. We will definitely continue to come back every year when we're in town. read more

This place might not be on the list of places to eat when you're in Savannah but it absolutely should be! Been coming here 4 years, multiple times per year. Im sad this is first time. Missed opportunity. Come here for great Americana food with southern hospitality experience like none other. What an amazing place! All American food and vibe, with World War I & II promo posters, plane photos and more. Based in an American Legion hall, its an old fashioned style diner. USA flavors all the way, with specialty burgers, hotdogs & fries. Plus amazing sandwich selection. Theres a bar inside in next room, where you can get a drink and bring here if you want. Betty Bombers is diner/soda shop vibes. The service is southern hospitality at its finest, and the food is great! Split a victory sized steak & cheese fries, which is the best thing i never knew i needed in my life! Hot turkey club sandwich, so generously sized we had leftovers. Milkshakes are absolutely amazing! Highly recommend! We took ours to go, and walked around Forsythe Park with them which is super close by. read more

What a cool place! In the birthplace ok the mighty 8th Air Force. Love this stuff! Cant stop taking pics of the inside. It's small but so cool. Our server was so quick and friendly. Ordered the larvae mint chip shake. Ginormous! Tasted as great as it looked. Also had the pulled pork fries and the Philly steak. Very much enjoyed it. We'll be back. read more

BB aims to elevate traditional bar food (burgers, wings, etc.) and serve you the freshest version possible. We enjoyed the burger, dog, and onion rings. All were served fresh, hot, and well seasoned. We'd ask that BB please consider a more efficient order and delivery system. Solution: hang an "Order here" sign by the front register, have two servers on the floor, and set up a self-serve water/place setting/condiment station. We (along with a few other patrons) were beyond confused as to where/when to sit, where to order, and whom to ask for assistance. One server was working the entire floor and doing her best to keep up with *post-ordering requests. read more

Super fun place with friendly service and great food. Definitely recommend for both locals and if you're visiting Savannah.

We had such a phenomenal accidental lunch here! We absolutely loved the cheese curds! The milkshake was exceptional and my burger with blue cheese was out of this world. The decor is excellent! It makes you feel like you are taking a step back in time. My friend loved their loaded fries! There was an array of seating, from booths to tables. It did appear that only two people were working and they were slammed, but it did not bother us. Highly recommend stopping in here! read more

Savannah is a city filled with diversity, history, great architecture and fabulous food options, and with many options, but you won't find one like this! Located in an old VFW building near Forsyth Park and if you didn't know about it, you'd walk right past. And that would be a shame. as it boasts a truly unique ambiance. Because of it's location inside the VFW, the decor is geared to WW2 military mainly, with old posters, models of vintage airplanes, and other military hardware. You won't find anything on the menu in epicurian magazines or on cooking shows, this is good, well prepared basic items. The wait staff is friendly, and the prices are reasonable, and the place is clean. It's a fun place that you should check out! read more

We came here around 12 pm for lunch and there was only a few people. There was only one girl working and we sat there for I kid you not 40 damn minutes without even being ACKNOWLEDGED. She didn't even come up to take our drink order. I've worked in the restaurant business as a server once before and have had to manage countless tables all at once, it's not that hard so I don't feel bad for her, it was just disrespectful. In our time waiting there I saw two tables walk out because of the same problem, as well as an older couple waiting and walking up to the bar to try and place an order like we did but she will just automatically ignore you. Awful experience, I don't care how good the food might be I am not waiting almost an hour to even get a fucking drink. read more

I love this place. It's like I went through a time warp. It's got that Johnny Rockets vibe but authentic. It's not pretending to be old. There are rifles in the windows and a bayonet I think. You can sit at the counter, order at the cash register or sit down and get table service. It's a great place if you love burgers and fries. I ordered the in house veggie burger. It's made of white beans. It was pretty good. As my side I ordered fries. The fries are amazing!!!!! My lunch mates ordered Philly cheese steak looking sandwiches that are served with what looks like nacho cheese. If you are hungry or like to split dishes this is the best place to go. I could have split my burger and fries with someone. It was definitely enough for at least two people. It's a fun place and I'm excited to Go back and try something else. read more

This place is interesting--it's located in an old VFW building and has a great, unique ambiance. Unfortunately, service was very slow due to limited staff. We waited about 10 minutes for our table to be cleaned and then another 30 minutes just to get drinks. The staff explained they weren't expecting such a large crowd on New Year's Day and had to call in additional help. The burgers and fries, however, were excellent and definitely the highlight of the meal. One person ordered a quesadilla, which was good but not standout. We also ordered buffalo chicken fries as an appetizer, but they arrived with the entrées, were extremely spicy, and ended up being mostly untouched. Overall, if you plan to visit, expect a wait--but be sure to order the burgers. They're hand-pattied and very good, making them worth it. read more

Best milkshakes in Savannah! REAL ice cream (unlike Checkers). Especially the Mexican chocolate one! Definitely worth checking out. read more

While the seating is a bit tight, I really enjoyed the 1940s diner theme--the WWII propaganda posters were a cool touch. Even though they seemed short-staffed, the servers did such a great job tending to our table that we hardly noticed. Also, despite not having an option for a preferred doneness, the burgers turned out amazing. read more

Really fast service, great burger close to Forsyth Park! I really enjoyed the 1940s music playing as well.

Food was typical American burger, hotdog and fries and tasted good, but service was SO SLOW!!!!!!!!!!! There weren't that many in the restaurant and we waited about 35-40 minutes for our food. It doesn't take that long to cook a cheeseburger and a hotdog (both with fries). The waiter excuse was they only had 2 people in the kitchen. Again, there weren't many people eating and two people in the kitchen should be able to get out these simple dishes in less than 30 minutes. Won't be back (whenever we visit Savannah again). read more

Good burger and fries. Server was great. I used to go here because it was relatively inexpensive but they are in line with a lot of burger joints now. read more

Love this place! Burgers are a littleee pricy, but the portions are huge. I just got the classic, and it was super juicy and the bun was perfectly toasted. Not my favorite kind of fry, but was still tasty. Friend said milkshake and cheeses take were great as well. The food came out very quick too. Great for a quick lunch on Forsyth. read more

Step back into time as Betty Bombers, located in the American Legion Hall, has an old 1940s diner vibe with the old standards filling the air waves -Sentimental Journey and Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy - vinyl seating, Formica tables and 1940s pin up girls and WWII posters decorate the walls. My single patty burger was cooked perfectly, my requested pepper Jack cheese honored, the lettuce, tomato and onion were fresh and my order finished with an American Flag tooth pick! The skin on fries were yummy! The drinks are self serve. Counter service was friendly and helpful where you'll receive a table order number and they bring the food to you. In addition to burgers and sodas they have milk shakes, Root Beer floats, nachos, hotdogs, tacos and a variety of sandwiches. read more

What an adorable place!!!! It's family owned and operated, as evidenced by the 9 year-old who expertly rung us up and his sister who helped bring out our food. The decor is WWII pictures and ads. Very interesting!! The food was fabulous! The cheese steaks with provolone hit the spot. The burger with Swiss and mushrooms was delish! We will be back for sure. read more

Decent food, decent prices, good milkshakes! Atmosphere was decent as well and people were friendly. We were looking for something simple and decided to try this place. Daughter got steak and cheese fries. The portion wasn't very big for ~$14. She enjoyed them. The steak was thin, chopped steak you'd find on a philly cheesesteak. Wife got a chicken sub. It was really good. Son got a Beachhead burger. It came with a slice of fried Spam on it. He loved it. If I ever visit again I will get the Thai garlic wings. Those were recommended by multiple people but I wasn't very hungry. We finished it off with some milkshakes. Family enjoyed them. There are a lot of restaurants to visit in Savannah. Not sure if I would run back to this place but I'd visit again. read more

We visited Savannah from the West Coast and this place was recommended to us. I gave 2 stars because they were prompt with our to go order and whoever was working was really nice. When we visited there was one table seated to eat and one more to go order ahead of us. We took our food to our Airbnb 2 blocks away. We ordered a burger and the SOS and we ordered the tater tots. The tots were mediocre and everything else was terrible. There was no flavor and the meat used for the burger and SOS had to be the lowest grade meat available. It was a bummer. read more

I think I need to give this place another chance. It was a bit packed, and young children brought us our food. I personally did not like that, mostly because of OSHA standards with food handling. The Thai garlic wings weren't good, but the hot ones were! The milkshakes were delicious! I think that was my favorite part of our meal. Not pictured was a hot dog. It was huge! The burger was also just all right. Cute little place to eat, but not really my favorite. read more

It's a quick service place where you order at the counter and pay and get a number. The staff will bring the food to your table, even for takeout. Service is great, very helpful and friendly. We got two items to go and one soft drink. It's help yourself fountain machine. We ordered Bbq pulled pork sandwich and Cheesesteak with fries. Food comes out hot in about 10 mins. They are pretty good. My only complaint is I wish there is more cheese on the cheesesteak. Next time i'll ask for extra. The restaurant is in a building sharing the floor with offices and other business. Interior design is world war 2 theme. I thought it looks like a little cute military diner during war time. Overall next time we're back in town we'll be back here trying their burgers. Our tour guide said it was his personal favorite. read more

Oh, Oh, This place is going out of business. I gave this place a bad review two years ago. Since then, i have been occasionally going back. I have a total of 19 check-ins at Betty's, before the review and after. Betty's greatly improve and started serving hot fries after my first review. I was getting ready to give Betty's a good, updated review until this! Last Saturday, I went for lunch and noticed an obvious change. A restaurant in decline! Service and food took a downward turn. I have seen this before in a struggling restaurants. They are SKIMPING! Skimping on service and worst of all on the food. Trying to cut corners! Bad, Bad sign.................... I first noticed this when at the counter ordering my food. I saw a plate leave the kitchen and immediately noticed a smaller plate than in my previous experiences and a substantial amount of less French fries (see attached pictures of my plate). I sat down and found the napkin holders on the tables were GONE! I normally order the Pastrami sandwich which always has a good amount of meat. I received my sandwich and to quote and old Wendy's commercial: "WHERE IS THE BEEF?" There was a meniscal amount of pastrami in the center of the sandwich plumped up high trying to make it look bigger. No meat towards the ends (Picture attached). Glad for the lesser amount of fries! Because they were COLD and not worth eating! I asked the server for napkins because they were none to me found. Upon my leaving, I noticed two things: 1. Most tables were napkin less or just a few overused napkins. 2. Less customers than normal. Hum, go figure...... Well, I really hate to see this place go under. They have a GREAT ambiance and location. Their food has always been just Ok. Cold fries and way over cooked dry hamburgers. But all in all, I hate to see struggling restaurants. But this place has all the warning signs. I just wish that they would understand that cutting back on service and quality of food is not the way to survive! read more

Fun atmosphere, good food!!! We enjoyed it BUT inconsistent! Didn't give me and my daughter the same milkshakes. Mine had caramel on the inside of the glass and whipped cream on top. Hers had neither. Very disappointing, for her. read more

Retro, 50s themed, no-frills diner located inside the American Legion. Quick service, and funny and friendly staff. He made great recommendations as far as burgers.

I loved the war time diner theme. The portions are large except for the wings which were a little small. The food was very good. The fries were crispy perfection. The chicken in the buffalo friends was small bits instead of larger chicken tenders. The service was great, make sure to ask the availability of what you're thinking of order because they did run out of onion rings after we placed our ordered. Overall a nice place to eat especially if you are thinking of budget friendly places to eat near the river. read more

Ordered our food to go as we had our two labs with us. Went for a cheeseburger with lettuce, onion, tomato, a side of fries and the pastrami sandwich. Nothing ticks me off more then when a SANDWICH shop can't handle the simple requirements needed to create a satisfying meal. The pastrami had way too much bread in relation to the other ingredients. If that wasn't bad enough, one half had less meat, cheese and onion than it's partner. How hard is it to equally distribute the fillings? Can't you find bread that is better sized and balanced for your creations? The burger was infinitely better in that department but it didn't blow us away. The fries were so salty we couldn't even decipher that it was a potato we were eating. This establishment might be a big hit with the younger crowd, but sadly our experience here will not warrant a second visit. read more

This is actually a pretty cool place to go if you like world war II memorabilia. The menu is very American and has lots and lots of choices. However, the cheeseburger I ordered really just didn't have a lot of taste to the meat. Granted, it was one of the biggest burgers I've had for the phenomenal price, but it just wasn't there in the way of taste. Also, the fries that we got looked as if they were hours old fries reheated... they just had that shriveled up look to them. read more
