One of the few places that are open on Mondays. The employees were very kind and helpful and neighborly. Being from NY I am particular about pizza and this wasn't my favorite, but it wasn't bad either! The store had a dozen or so tables in the back. The building itself has a ramp to get inside, but the corridor in front of the counter would be tight to fit a wheelchair through. read more

Green Peppers Restaurant - Large extra cheese and pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Middlebury, Vermont

Just tried Green Peppers for first time in 3 years...wow, awesome pizza. Cheese and Pepperoni were so good!

they need to open up restaurant for eat-in! increase your hours! Closing at 7PM is really early. At least increase hrs on Thurs-Sat! Pizza is good but there have been times when we get an overbaked one. but otherwise it's ok. read more

This was one of the places open during our Vermont visit and we were craving pizza, so decided to give it a try. We ordered half pepperoni and half Mexican, and they both were great! The pizzas came out hot and we waited about 20 minutes. I would go again if I was in the area but might try a different pizza topping. read more

Pretty good pizza, super nice people. I miss when you used to be able to sit down and eat there it was always a fun time. It's only curbside since Covid. read more

It's a little odd to me that I look on google maps a lot to find a place nearby to eat and this place looks great, lots of reviews (143) and more stars (4.4). If I had looked at yelp I might not have came! Lots of offerings at a good price. Very nice friendly service, very attentive. The place was quiet for a Saturday, I was very happy to not have to deal with a lot of people. The food came out fast! I got a ham club, hubs tortellini with alfredo and an appetizer of mozzarella sticks (so good)! Everything was good tasting, hot and fresh. we had no complaints. We will surely return this summer. read more

Very good food and prompt, friendly service. The owner is a great guy! The menu is pretty extensive. I have enjoyed a couple of different types of sandwiches and several different kinds of pizza. They do an especially good job with my favorite pie (sausage, onions and mushroom on a thin crust). read more

The most overpriced pizza I've ever had. Two topping pizza came to 32.76 Not worth it at all. It's less expensive to go order surf and turf elsewhere read more

Really enjoyed this place been here many times for lunch food is tasty service is friendly Came back in with wife and kids they loved it. Spaghetti and meatballs very tasty nicely plated great portions Thanks again read more

This place is literally amazing, y'all. The portions are HUGE, and it's fantastic. We got a pepperoni pizza that came within just a few minutes of us ordering (like, less than 10!!), and the cheese gave the best stretch. Very satisfying. The regular salads are def for sharing, but they're super generous with their toppings. Their desserts were wonderful, and even more wonderful was the service. The lady who waited on us was SO NICE and absolutely hilarious and I want to name my next child after her. Paper straws are lit. Awesome options. In conclusion, yes. read more

Green Peppers Restaurant - Buffalo Chicken Salad - Pizza Near Me - Middlebury, Vermont

Green peppers has been a Middlebury staple for as long as I can remember. Recently visited and the pizzas are a step below frozen pizzas. The whole pizza was flavorless. The dough was terrible, the sauce was terrible and without any spices. Toppings were average, but lacking any quantity (pizza was barely topped) They make you wait outside in the parking lot to bring the pizza out. There are much better places in Middlebury for pizza better tasting pizza and service. read more

Super friendly, tasty local spot. Pizzas are very good, made on a light and crispy crust with fresh ingredients. The space is clean, bright and welcoming. Came on a quick pass through Middlebury and would absolutely make a point of returning. read more

service is always great here but the food not so much when it comes to the pizza. Too much cheese on the pizza makes it soggy. I will try it again eventually hoping it was just not a great night for oizza Went for dinner there tonight and picked up some pasta and salad. Pasta and sauce were veey good and salad was fresh and crisp. I will gladly get these again in the future. read more

A great local restaurant near the Shaw's. Basically anything you get here will taste good. read more

Good little classic pizza place. Staff is friendly and the food is good. I got myself a Buffalo Chicken & BBQ chicken mix, the waitress suggested mixing the sauces and doing the combination as they often do that for the staff. Pretty good and hit the spot! read more

In town for work from Philly. 8pm. Needed food. Exactly ZERO places deliver after 8pm. Never heard of such a thing. Not even a Dominoes or Pizza Hut within 30 miles, that's how desperate I was. Almost no places were even open after 8pm (except the McDonald's that didn't know how to serve just a soda without being confused). How do people live in this town??? There's a college for god sakes! Anyway, desperate times, desperate measures. Got dressed and drove to this place (what is this, the stone age???) because a) it was open, b) the menu said they have pizza. Saying this was bad pizza is an insult to bad pizza. This DiGiorno wannabe was the worst thing I have ever ate that calls itself pizza. I threw half of it out and ate a 2-day old salad. THREW. OUT. PIZZA. That's like a capital offense in Philly. OMG I should have driven into the woods, ran over a bear, and ate it. That would have tasted more like pizza. I might die in Vermont from starvation. Get your shit together, Vermont. 13/10. FYI: To the people in the other reviews that loved this pizza... what's wrong with you?? Do you lack tastebuds? Or have you never ventured out of Vermont? Take a trip to NYC, have some pizza. If you like this pizza, you'll die from the taste of the NYC pizza. Or Philly pizza. Or Chicago pizza. Take a trip, eat food at a place that's not reheating frozen DiGiornos. read more

Ordering a pizza for pick up was extremely easy, I decided to get a medium pizza which came with 12 slices and 2 toppings for around $17. It was a great deal and the pizza was delicious I will definitely be ordering takeout from them again! read more

Worst pizza I have ever had. We had the Z special. There was 1 piece of pepperoni on each slice, the peppers were undercooked and huge, i even found an onion peel on my pizza. The crust was so dry and hard it hurt my mouth and tasteless. Dont waste your money or time. read more

After eating there dozens of times, I've yet to be disappointed with any meal I've had at Green Peppers. The price is right and the staff are all attentive, courteous, and friendly. It can get a little crowded before a Friday evening Middlebury HS home football game, but the longest wait I've ever had was about 30-40 minutes. You can make reservations, but only if you place your order at the time you reserve. I typically order an appetizer, so if I change my mind as to what main course I want before I get there, it's no big deal. The pizzas are excellent with ample toppings. I highly recommend the Z Special (apparently named after the original owner), which has a tasty assortment of meats, fresh veggies, and mushrooms. At least for me though, THE reason to go to Green Peppers is the buffalo wings, which are simply the best I've had anywhere in Vermont. While the sauce isn't overpowering heat-wise, it's not a standard buffalo sauce made with Frank's and butter either, although those ingredients are in there. If I had to guess, I'd say they add apple cider vinegar, black pepper, and probably blue cheese. If you can figure it out, let me know. I've asked and they won't tell me :)Anyway, like I said, the wings are outstanding and worth the trip by themselves. Yeah, it's out front of a Shaw's and doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's definitely worth it on the inside. read more

The food was excellent! The service was great! Maybe the people leaving bad reviews about the service should look at how they were as customers! I will be coming back anytime I'm in the area read more

Good food and nice folks waiting on you. Walkin and take out available. Call ahead when your in Rutland or Brandon and it will be waiting for you. read more

I come to this place once a year almost like tradition for a swim meet I attend here. This last time I was not happy w/ the service received & the tables hadn't been cleaned yet either. Although people here are really friendly, there were people who sat down after us who got waited on & served before us. Then once we got our pizzas- which were pretty tasty-they were cold. What is up w/ that? read more

A family-friendly restaurant where the taste of the food lives up to the delicious smells that come out of the kitchen. I enjoy both the pasta dishes and the pizzas. One of my favorites in Middlebury! read more

This restaurant does not look very nice and is not in a great location. But the salad was really good ! Large portion and very well priced. Also so many choices for toppings for the salads. The pizza is okay. Not much more to say. Staff are really friendly and fast. Overall good price good food. read more

Got a salad there today.. soggy veggies and brown iceburg lettuce. i tossed it without even opening it :( Go to Ramunto's if you want an awesome salad read more

We had the tossed and Greek salads, chicken parm with penne, chicken broccoli Alfredo with linguine, garlic bread, cheese and bean nachos, iced tea, and a couple sodas. (Total bill with tax: $41). Everything fresh, delicious, large portions, and economically priced. Service friendly, cheerful, welcoming. Ambience is like a family diner. Our fourth or fifth visit in as many years on our annual trip to Vt, and consistently excellent. read more

Green Peppers has become a favorite stop when we visit Middlebury a couple times each year for youth sporting events. We visited this past weekend with a large group after a hockey game and enjoyed both the food & the service. The decor is kind of grungy, but don't let it deter you from eating here! read more

We've eaten twice this week at Green Peppers, the first time was good, lunch salads were excellent. Our second visit wasn't as good, the french onion soup was terrible, the pasta was cold, the sauce was colder and the service was slow. Not sure why this was such a bad experience but we'll refrain in the near future. read more

When me and my family went in we were kind of skeptical because of the decor. It seemed like your average pizza joint though. We sat ourselves, this was a monday night, and our table was clean. The people were very friendly and our waiter came right away. As an appetizer we got chips and salsa. The chips were a little salty but good and the salsa was fresh. My mom ordered ravioli with their homemade sauce which according to her was amazing. My dad ordered spaghetti and meatballs which he said was pretty good. My sister got fettucini alfredo which she liked and I ordered the chicken parm. They give you a large portion of what you order. HERES A TIP, if they ask if you want bread and butter with your dinner just get one if your with 3-4 people. They give you about half a loaf on your own and 4 pieces of garlic bread if you ask for that instead. The food was good for the value. How can you beat 8 dollars for chicken parm??? I don't know how their pizza is but their entrees are pretty good. read more

Green Peppers was a nice restaurant: it was clean, it was reasonably priced, and the staff were very friendly. The BLT and the Grilled Italian sandwiches were very tasty, and they onion rings were exceptional. All in all, it was a wonderful dining experience! read more

Great locally owned and operated restaurant ! Friendly service. Great food and prices. To go or eat in.

Okay, not great. Good alternative when the Inn didn't have room in the restaurant for hotel guests, as its in walking distance. Door is on the grocery store side, which is confusing for those of us from out of town. (There was a sign that the door was for emergency exit only, but no direction, then, of where the real door was located.). Fairly robust pizza and pasta menu, family-friendly and comfortable. Good food, though the service was fairly slow for having only a handful of tables. read more

Ate there often as a child when we were in Vermont visiting my grandparents, and the chef salad is outstanding. I've planned an overnight trip back there just to get this salad, and when combined with the italian dressing, it brings back great memories, and still tastes just as good! Excellent pizza with lots of toppings and great Vermont cheese, and a price that is not hard on the wallet... recommended to anyone looking for a good meal at a decent price when travelling through Middlebury! read more

We had a birthday party with guests coming over and we ordered pizzas for 2pm, which we placed the order at 11am. When we showed up to get the pizzas they told us 2:30. We had to leave and return 30 minutes later. The pizzas came out great, but having our guests wait was unacceptable with the time we gave them. Next time we will be going to Ninos. read more

Unpretentious. Good food. Love the pizza in spite of the long snarky review by a visitor from Philadelphia who was basically upset because Middlebury isn't Philadelphia. It's where we go when we want good, decently priced food without fuss. read more

Only getting 2 stars because the pizza was good. Very disappointed in the service. Upon arrival it took quite a while for a host to even greet us & once she did, we were treated like an inconvenience because we hadn't called ahead. There was a large table reserved for another group & the other tables were full. We squeezed 6 of us into a booth with a chair at the end. We ordered & received our family salad, which took up any space left at the table. Concerned about where the 2 Medium pizzas were going to go when they were done & seeing 2 other booths open up, I asked if we could split our group & use another table. I was squeezed in between my 12 & 8 year old. This was after they had seated a group at one of the opened booths. We were very rudely told "no", that there was "no way, we are too busy." Minutes after being told no, they determined that the group that had reservations was 30 minutes late, so they separated the tables & proceeded to seat other people. Our waitress was clearly too busy for our table, we had to ask a different waitress to bring us the right salad dressing & to box our pizza up to go. She was apologetic that we didn't have room & that we were told we couldn't use another table, however when our waitress brought the pizza & our bill, she made no effort to apologize. We were very disappointed, my husband was born & raised in Middlebury and was excited to visit when we were in town, possibly for the last time as we are moving his mother home to Oregon with us tomorrow. Very disappointing that in order to enjoy our pizza warm he had to eat it out of the back of our rental car, as we are staying in Hinesburg. read more

Cleverly disguised as a hole-in-the-wall pizza joint. The pick up window would make you think it's a typical college town style pizza place, but once you walk around the corner to the seating area, it changed my opinion. Stopped in on a Monday night about an hour before closing so we were basically the only people in there eating dinner.we decided to throw some curveballs at the waitress and she was awesome ( I think her name was Sarah?)the meat nachos were good and could have been a meal in itself. the pizza was different than anything I've ever had, and was delicious.Came back the next night for dinner and noticed a different crew working, but they did not disappoint. if you order a dessert, get the brownie a la mode, you'll thank yourself. read more

Restaurant is badly in need of renovation, but the food is good, so it depends on what's important to you!

I guess you won't be disappointed if you like $15 salad made with iceberg lettuce and other tasteless vegetables. The pizza was also nothing special. read more

Green Peppers is not only my favorite place to eat in Middlebury, but has become my favorite place to eat period. I've eaten pizza, every pasta on their menu, at least 5 different delicious appetizers, and the yummiest salads there. I eat there at least once or twice every two weeks (aka whenever I can) and I have yet to be dissapointed with a single meal. They are doing a great job renovating, but even if they kept it how it was I'd still love green peppers for the following reasons: *best pizza I've ever had. I don't know what their recipes are but someone needs to give them a med *all their pastas are simple but equally as good. They make pasta better than I probably ever could. *wonderful service *a comfortable environment. No fuss. I'm a huge foodie and like to dress up and go to a fancy restaurant, but on many an occasion I've ended up wanting to just eat at green peppers by the end of all the fuss. *whatever ranch they use/make is the bomb. I wish I could get a tub of it to take home with me. *big portions for such a good price *have you tried the cheese garlic bread? Ugh I die of happiness every time. I've been to a lot of Italian restaurants and green peppers is the only one who actually makes it right. *10% if you come back within ten days!!! If you want a no-fuss dinner that's delicious, cheap, and satisfying go to green peppers. You won't be dissapointed. I work at a store in Middlebury and try to send people over to green peppers whenever I can. They deserve 5 stats and more. read more
