NOT YOUR AVERAGE BAR FOOD

Bar Betsie's menu leans into nostalgic American finger foods with snacks like chipotle queso, Buffalo chicken dip, lil smokies slow-cooked in grape jelly and barbecue sauce, and fried pickle dip made with local Gordy's Pickles and cacio e pepe-style breadcrumbs. Makan alum Justin Chang helped craft the menu, focusing on simple flavor-packed bites like house-marinated olives best paired with a Negroni on tap. Guests can pull together a mix of bites for a laid-back, satisfying spread. Every table gets a glass bowl of neon-orange cheese balls with refills available for $4. Pull up a chair, we've been waiting for you.
