Drive, park, enjoy food Flavorful burgers & shakes 60s vibe drive-in No longer live in Logan but loved coming here with my family. Always got a cheeseburger full of different stuff, and a chocolate shake. When I first had it I was shocked how good it was for a relatively small place kinda out of the way just off of Michigan Ave/ a highway. And it was always consistently delicious, even when they changed ownership. read more

Char-Bett Drive-In is one of my favorite places in Logansport! The hamburger basket was cooked fresh, full of flavor, and served hot with crispy fries. The real highlight, though, is the famous Red Indian ice cream. Its unique cinnamon flavor is absolutely delicious and something you won't find just anywhere. The staff is always friendly, the service is quick, and the old-fashioned drive-in atmosphere makes every visit enjoyable. Whether you're stopping by for lunch or just a sweet treat, Char-Bett never disappoints. Great food, great ice cream, fair prices, and a hometown experience that keeps me coming back. Highly recommended! read more

Food was decent, i wish they had beef hot dog options . I personally think the ice cream is the best feature about Char-bett. It's very nostalgic & cute place . The staff are very quick to come out to your car & very friendly. read more

Best homemade anyware. The owner Eric is top notch Cheeseburgers is always fresh pattied out. Tenderloins are good. They sell tons of ice cream.Top notch car hops. We are regulars read more

Known originally to me growing up for their frozen custard but recently discovered how amazing their food is!!! Absolutely great cheeseburgers and fries. I mean seriously good and probably best in area. Sadly closed through the winter. Makes it that much better in the spring for the anticipation. Oh. And their custard changes daily. Love the chocolate because it isn't overpowering. Great lemon. But it's their non-PC Ref Indian that is the standout. Can't find it anywhere else! Red hot cinnamon hearts meets custard. read more

Best breaded tenderloin in town. Hot fudge sundae also excellent! Be sure to tip the worker at the window!

Nice place seen it for a while. Also forgot take a before I eat photo. Lol sorry I was hungry. Peanut butter shake pretty good, can't go wrong with a root beer. Onions AMAZING, French fries were thin crispy and hot so can't complain. On to the tenderloins. Not horrible. They r not fresh made. They remind me of the blue box tenderloin u get at the store. I ate it. Wasn't bad like I said. I'd just not recommend if ur wanting a real tenderloin. Kinda a bummer. The only reason I'd stop back is maybe for ice cream. Won't stop for food again. Also I must add when u pull up someone will come to ur car to take ur order. Thought that was cool read more

This place is a 10/10! We always get our food made right and no crazy long wait time. The employees there are nice and friendly

Had the double cheeseburger basket with mushrooms. Best burger I've had in a long time. Everything was fresh and hot. Will be back!

Perfect banana split. I couldn't really ask for anything better from an ice cream shop.

Average pork tenderloin. Killer onion rings. Very average Cole slaw. Mr. happy Burger kills this place. Lots of Noise at table. Nice place but not as good as it once was. Did like the onion rings. read more

Good burgers and fries. Spanish dogs were very good and more like a typical coney dog. The coney dogs had relish which is not typical. Many choices of ice cream. They have a red Indian flavor which is cinnamon enhanced. It was too light of cinnamon flavoring. I settled for lemon which was not very lemony. Very nice location with picnic tables. Very clean inside and out. Lots of locals enjoying the products on a beautiful weekend day. Very kept up . Excellent friendly staff. No rest rooms. Cash or check only. Busy place. read more

Charbetts is the best place in town! The owners have spruced up the place and it's so cute. All the food is amazing, but try a burger or the hot tots. Then finish off with homemade ice cream. Ask about the flavor of the month read more

Great food, wonderful ice cream, and the staff has always been friendly! Prices are decent compared to another ice cream place in town!

Service was excellent! Food prepared perfectly. The reason for the four stars instead of five would be the quality of the food. I would like to have healthier options. read more

Good food for the price paid. The fried mushrooms are to be expected amd were hot when server with my french fries and double cheese burger thru the garden. Ice cream was good too. read more

My first time there and they treated me like an idiot for not knowing every detail of the menu. Didn't mention nuts in the chicken salad, didn't tell me they had Pepsi instead of Coke. No bathroom. read more

They have changed, used to have the best cheeseburger in town, the burger I got was burnt and tough, wanted chocolate ice cream , got vanilla, very disappointed, it's just not the same , I don't think I will be returning and have been going there for years....so disappointed read more

Nostalgic little drive-in, ice cream shop that's been around since the 50's. Original owners were CHARlie and BETTy Streu, hence the name of the place Char-Bett. The food is great drive-in food such as burgers, hot dogs, tenderloins, fries, etc. The ice cream is still so delicious. I still love the orange pineapple. If you look at the menu and wonder what is a top hat, that's their name for the chocolate dipped cones. Car hop service starts after 4pm. read more

great service and excellent ice cream. new in town and i enjoy this spot and will definitely be coming back for more during the on season!

Burgers, fish, fries, etc. are very good, nice sized portions. While their breaded Tenderloin sandwiches get good reviews I'm just not as impressed with them. I've had much bigger, better and more satisfying flavor in breaded tenderloins elsewhere. The ice cream treats seem to be the mainstay of their business and those are very good. They offer an ice cream flavor called Red Indian. It's a cinnamon flavor and it is awesome; creamy and delicious - hand dipped. Clean, charming place, friendly staff- mostly high school girls - order ice cream at window if that's all you want. If you're getting food they have car hop service starting at 4 pm. Go there! read more

Seasonal but busy at lunch on a Beautiful sunny Tuesday in July. Go to the window and the fast food comes out to the pick nick benches. Friendly young ladies politely serve. Burger and fries seem HQ and something like those flipped from the Founder movie in the 50's. Great Value for 6bucks. Cheeseburger Fries and Large lemonade. Stop. Worth it. PS my friend had dogs and wasn't over the moon so I guess enjoy the burgers. read more

They are great ice cream place and one of the best ice cream places in this town not too many are much better

Their ice cream is good and their food is so good. Their burgers are juicy and their fries are usually crispy!! Just the way I like.

Great food especially their ice cream... prices are reasonable... I highly recommend this place!

I love this place. They have the best ice cream in town. Their cheeseburgers are outstanding. You won't be disappointed.

Had double cheeseburger, fries and slaw. Burger great. Slaw amazing and fresh. Fries just ok. Soda cups on small side. Cost was decent. My husband and I ate for under $15. Car hop service after 4pm. read more

I go by this little drive-in every 2 weeks taking my sons home to Mishawaka. It must go back to early 60's or possibly 50's with a great road sign. We typically stop for the hard ice cream like the red indian, et. al. no soft serve here. But now and then my son will get a BLT. Well this past weekend we all had sandwiches and it was all delicious. I had a deluxe double cheeseburger and it was excellent! It was real hamburger and cooked just like a homemade hamburger by your mom! I was so impressed that I had to try the grilled tenderloin which was also excellent and one of the best I've had. If you traverse Indiana vertically every other week, like I do, or even horizontally, I recommend this stop. It beats the hell out of stopping for chain fast food in Logansport or continuing to Rochester. Greg read more

My favorite local seasonal eatery! We have a few good ones in town but Charbett is near and dear to my heart. I go for the malts but the food is great too! read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in town. Great ice cream. There they will mix up practically anything for you. I asked if I could have Red Indian ice cream in my chocolate soda. They were a little confused, but they completed my order and it was wonderful. The prices are comparable to other ice cream places. Staff is very nice. read more

Outstanding ice cream stand that has been here as long as I can remember. Good fries-- great prices! I usually just get a Pepsi float for nostalgia's sake but everything is good here. read more

They have the best ice cream in logansport Indiana and they have the best burger's in town

IMHO this has to be one of the best places to go to in Logansport to get some decent grub and sadly its seasonal so get it while the gettin' is good. read more

Char-Bett's is a must, always make multiple stops here when we come from California to visit family. Burgers, fries, onion rings, sundaes, Arctic swirls...never disappoint!!! Tried the other places but just no comparison!!! read more

Never disappointed here. Everything is amazing. Ice cream and food alike. I grew up going to this place because we lived so close, and it has become a favorite in my adulthood too. The slushies with ice cream are a perfect blend of drink and snack. I love the potato wedges with sour cream, that is some tasty stuff right there! I love everyone who works there too, always sweet and patient when I can't decide what to get. They have great suggestions too and laugh at my jokes. I will be back whenever I can! read more

I must have ate here a million times as a kid. Family friends are the owners and I was impressed with the low cost fried fish sammich and fries and I enjoyed the coleslaw. I also had a chocolate malt made with frozen custard and it was so thick and delicious. YUM! And a cute place to stop right when you get into town. Closed for the winter! I used to ice skate on the parking lot when there was a freeze. true story! read more

The food here is awesome. They have the best cheeseburgers in town. I also recommend the breaded loin.

I love getting there fish sandwiches and breaded tenderloins with mustard and pickles and it's a decent price.
