Nowhere near a dive bar, nice place, good food, good service. Short drive from the Walla Walla Sweets game.

We were planning to give Green Lantern Tavern 2 stars, but settled on 3 because the service was friendly. Our biggest disappointment was the turkey, bacon, avocado sandwich. Since the menu didn't indicate it was grilled or served hot, we expected a traditional cold sandwich. Instead, it arrived hot, which quickly wilted the lettuce to the point that we removed it. The ciabatta roll was also underwhelming--it was soft throughout and lacked the crisp, chewy crust that ciabatta is known for. The tater tots were just okay and seemed a bit overcooked or possibly freezer-burned. We were also surprised to see a charge for splitting a meal. We rarely ask to split dishes because my husband typically eats much more than I do, but it's the principle that bothered us. In today's dining environment, charging an extra fee simply to divide a plate feels outdated and unnecessarily nickel-and-diming customers. read more

We visited the Green Lantern Tavern two years ago when we were in town and liked the pizza and onion rings enough to go back! Service was good, beer choices were plentiful and it was cold. Onion rings were delicious and highly recommend getting them with the jalapeño ranch, delicious. My 4 star comes from us ordering a custom pizza and asking for certain ingredients (and confirming with the server) and then our pizza came out a little different. We thought we were getting pepperoni, sausage, onion, green pepper and half of the pizza with artichoke. That turned into: pepperoni, sausage, red bell pepper and green onions (like scallions) and artichoke on one half. When the gal brought it out she said "we don't have bell pepper" so there obviously is a miscommunication with the guy we ordered with. It was edible, I was disappointed but it wouldn't stop me from going back and just knowing not to order that. read more

As a former Walla Walla resident - "The Green" has always been a staple hang out! Good food, good beer, fun atmosphere! I miss the pool tables, but, everything else is still awesome! read more

Cool spot where locals hang out, watch sports, or pre game for other more wild bars. Our servers were super chill and had some pretty fun conversations with us. Locals are friendly too, they are totally down to hang if you approach them with confidence. Decent food and drinks. If you are traveling here and want to do more than just touristy stuff and want to party with the locals, this is a great place to start. read more

Service great. Food very good. Bloody mary great! Ice tea 1 step above water. Almost clear with a slight tea flavor. Only thing I didn't care for was when time to pay, they come to the table with the hand held and give you a total. I prefer to see a breakdown of the charges so I know it's correct. i.e. no idea still what a bloody mary costs. Total was about what I expected though. read more

Went here for a quick dinner tonight, our service was super fast, server was really nice. Accommodated our special request for chicken tacos, I got the fish tacos, everything tasted fresh and got. The drinks were really good too. read more

Great service and good food! Good vibe in this long time establishment! Definitely a place to meet up with friends for a couple of beers!

The pizza was excellent and the drinks were strong. Has a really cool outdoor seating area too! The fried pickle spears are fire!

Love the low key sports pub feel of this place. The service was fantastic and friendly. We loved the pub like the food. And every game we wanted to watch was on the TV. Also, I love the variety of alcoholic beverages, something for everyone. We will be back. read more

Have had lunch there a couple times with my lunch bunch of ladies. It was very good and they were very accommodating for the wheelchair.

Such wonderful ambience. I feel like I'm in a German pub! The food is great and the staff are wonderful. They could advertise their music nights better, but otherwise I love it here. They also have electrical outlets if you work from here etc. And Wi-Fi. Great parking toooooo read more

The service was great and the food was super tasty! We were seated and given menus right away, and our food came out of the kitchen very quickly. We had the Fish and Chips and the Taqueria Fish Tacos (sub'd flour instead of corn tortillas). The platter of fish and chips had three HUGE pieces of battered halibut, very good tartar sauce and crispy "chips". The tacos were made with the same battered halibut, but one piece was cut into thirds to divide among the three tacos - the tacos could have used more fish, but everything else was awesome. Our server was friendly and came back to check on us a few times and refill our water glasses. The weak part of the establishment is that the booths have the most uncomfortable benches I've ever experienced. They are bone straight, with hard shallow seats. Given their condition (LOT's of carved initials, etc.) it appears they are part of the charm of the place, but next time I will sit at a table with chairs. read more

Service needs an upgrade. Not what it used to be. Our waitress forgot us, we had to flag down another. Then, when time to leave had to go to the bar to get anyone's attentions n so we could pay. Very disappointed read more

This place has really good food. So much, we came here twice. The first time I had the Sasquatch burger and my wife had the fish tacos. The second time I had the pork tacos and she again had the fish tacos. The staff was super friendly and the beer was cold. Lots of local draft beers to choose from. I highly recommend trying them out. read more

The Green used to be one of my go-to places, both when I lived in Walla Walla and after I moved away, when I visited. No more. The last few times I've been there, the service was inattentive and lacking. Last visited April 19, mid-afternoon. It was not overly busy. Took forever to get waited on for drink orders and then a long wait to make a food order. We wanted a refill on drinks and there was a long wait before the waitress came back our way. Even though she had waited on the table next to us and never even glanced our way to see if we needed anything. Then, another long wait for the check, which never came. Had to go to the bar to pay. Finally, there was a guy waiting on tables wearing gym shorts. Seriously, gym shorts? Show a little professionalism. This is not the Green Lantern of old. In fairness the food was decent, but not enough to overcome the indifferent service. read more

Holy tacos! I'm writing this as we're waiting to pay. That was one of the best meals ever. I had the taqueria tacos- yum!!! I ate all three which is unusual for me. My hubs had a Sasquatch burger and said it was absolutely delicious. Walla walla is nice but it's upscale and we were recommended Green Lantern at a wine tasting. For this Montana girl this hit the spot. Immediately seated, lovely waitress, delicious food. Drinks and lunch came to $48....highly recommend! read more

Came in with my husband for a drink and a bite. Friendly service, solid food, and the staff seem like they are having fun, while doing their jobs well. Will eat here again for sure. read more

Great little bar. Service was good. Food excellent and reasonably priced. We go there every-time we visit walla walla.

We were looking for something a little less formal and decided to give The Green Lantern a go. So glad we did. The food was really good. We had the halibut and chips and the spicy pork tacos. Both were cooked well and very tasty. The server helping us was very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for and seemed to clearly be a locals favorite. Definitely a must try for anyone looking for an ale destination vs a winery locale. read more

I've been here twice. First time I had a very generously sized salad and shared a side of delicious Walla Walla onion rings. Ordered a burger to-go recently with fresh cut french fries and it was also good. Wish they had the onion rings regularly. Vibe is a little rowdy for my liking but the food is good read more

Really cool bar with great friendly bartenders to know how to serve up drinks and cold beers. We just came in for a couple beers on a Friday afternoon. My friend comes here all the time and he knows what the good bars are to go to here in Walla Walla. I will be back for sure. read more

The Green Lantern Tavern - Cool place on a hot day. Service and beers are good. - Pubs Near Me - Walla Walla, Washington

Best club sandwich in town. Best fries in town. Best beer selection in town. Need I say more?

Met my friends here Friday afternoon around 6:30 PM. I couldn't find them right when I walked in, but eventually I spotted them at a high top near the pool tables. There's 3 sections to this bar/restaurant: outdoor patio, bar area, and the pool area. I ordered: - wings (Frank's Hot sauce flavor) $11.50 - my friend's had ordered a sandwich and fries before I got there - cider and beers I enjoyed my wings, nibbled on some leftover fries, and had a hard cider. The waitress was kind enough to ask if we wanted separate bills, which we did. I think we had a couple of different waitresses serve us, but service was good. My friends said the place was packed when they got there and they couldn't find a seat at first. Seems like a happening place! $11.50 is kinda expensive for wings. read more

Went into this place few days ago, from out of town but in walla walla for a graduation. Heard the Green was a good place to go so we went and our waiter/bartender Andrew was super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, he made us feel like one the regulars. Fish and chips were great! Overall would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone. read more

This is a fun spot with decent food and good atmosphere but the service is hit or miss. The staff seem to share tables and depending on the team this works well. Today I came in on a day I don't usually (Monday evening). I was passed by the same two severs 6 times! without their stopping to greet or acknowledge me, though they would look at me. After 25 min (maybe more) a new server came on and she's always great. I stopped her and asked to order. The other gals have passed me countless more times without any offer of service. if I hadn't asked for my own many and flagged down service Id likely still be sitting here ignored and be giving a one star review. read more

There were five of us for dinner. Ordered drinks, two of the drinks were wrong. We had to take them back and have them remade. We ordered food and one entrée was never put in so never delivered. Second order of drinks there was one wrong ambre bartender argued that it was the right one. When we received the bill we were charged for two different ones terrible service tonight. read more

Food. Fun. Great bar. Nice people. Pizza is GREAT! Burgers are excellent! Fun place. Great sports bar. However remember they are only open certain days. read more

One of the great bars I have ever been to. I live four hours away and have seriously contemplated driving there JUST for the nachos. Don't worry about the comments about it being gross. Has been remodeled and is perfectly nice and clean. You can sit outside, but it's Walla Walla so it will probably be 200 degrees outside until the sun goes down! read more

The service was amazing & I loved the vibe but the wings weren't it for us :( We were was super excited because a waitress from Hallaways recommend them & they came out not crispy, sauce was watery & all at the bottom. :( I love the plum & chipotle concept but it was more sweet than anything. It just needs to be executed better. The pizzas looked good, I wish we would've ordered that instead. We're willing to give them another try, maybe it was just a busy day!! read more

Best nachos in town, that I've had, and their French fries are amazing! Fun, friendly atmosphere and waitstaff. Booths will keep you from napping, as they are a bit uncomfortable, but no complaints otherwise! read more

Hey, Antwon S., is your first time out in public? A recommended tip is pretty standard these days. If you can't tip your server/bartender don't go out to eat. Had a great time here! Love the draft list, fuck the haters. read more

Gotta say that we're local and have come to eat/drink at The Green for 20 years. Today's experience was a severe shift in quality. I ordered The Iron Goat Lager, and notified our server it was flat. I was offered a different drink and told the tap had been on longer than it should have and said they wouldn't charge me for the replacement drink. While I appreciated that, there didn't seem to be any intention of pulling the flat tap. Ordered a Club Sandwhich and the paper used when they portion out the meat was in the sandwhich. We brought this up with our server and they asked how this could be remedied while also mentioning at least it wasn't a fingernail, or some other human-related body part. While we said it was an FYI and didn't take them up on a free drink, we were surprised they didn't comp our food. We received $2.55 off of our bill due to the inconvenience (the Club is $17). After this experience we won't go back for quite awhile. While a server can't control the quality of food, they can choose how to respond to something that's gone sideways. Underwhelmed on all fronts, the place is in a bit of disarray. read more

My wife and I enjoyed an evening there of great draft beer and nachos. We moved here near 2 years ago but covid mitigated our exploration of Walla Walla. We are now exploring the richness of our community. The Green as locals call it, was joyful. The place was full of locals, enjoying good service, food and community. We left smiling and looking forward to our next visit!!! read more

Been coming here as part of our annual "first night in Walla Walla" ritual for a few years now. Anyway, found Green Lantern thru Yelp. Went because one in our party really enjoys beer & trying new selections. The reviews sounded decent enough to all of us so we knew what to expect. I'd say everyone is pretty spot on. My take: We typically go Friday night after the drive up from Oregon. It's usually around 7pm. It's busy. It's loud. But we've never had to wait more than a few minutes to find an open table for four. When I say loud, it's pretty much a dull roar. You don't quite have to shout across the table but almost in order to hear & be heard. You get the picture: this is not a quiet, intimate setting. Most of the patrons appear to be regulars. I'm not a barfly, but if I've ever been to any bar where "everyone knows your name" this would be it. In other words, I get the distinct feeling the locals (regulars) know who you are (tourists / out of towners) and accept who you are but you'd best mind your manners. It's a blue collar joint and I have no doubt there is a need for bouncers besides checking for fake ID's. That's not to say we've ever witnessed a brawl. I'm just saying that if you root for the wrong team or you imbibe a little too much and start popping your mouth off....it would not surprise me in the least that you, yourself might get popped! All that said, it's fun to be the tourist / non local and take in the action & vibe going on around you while quenching your thirst & stuffing your tummy with better than average grub (for a bar). This is Walla Walla...gotta have something ONION. Try the onion rings here. They are pretty decent. Nice blend of seasonings in the batter. We really like their sauce for dipping. It's a sweet concoction. Very tasty. This last trip, I had their lamb burger...which was excellent. My little baa baa tasted delicious washed down with one of their porters on tap. Generally, most of their food has been great. As I and others have said: better than average. I'd be willing to try anything on the menu that tickled my fancy. A word about the service: even though it's always been a busy Friday night when we've gone, we've always had outstanding service. Great bunch of guys & gals on staff there. And let's not forget about the parking. It's a dirt lot out in back. It's usually packed. Not well lit. Dark. You are at a bar. We've never had any issues but between watching your surroundings and watching your step (looking for potholes) just know what to expect. No valet service here! read more

Starts with no signage from the street. Locals bar. Nice full bar, lots of screens to watch sports. Drinks came fairly quick. Ordered four different entrees, the pizzas were awesome. Having a good time. Notice one two of the patrons are drunk. The waitress still brings them another pitcher. One guy looks like he is going to pass out. Told the waitress about the patron and nothing was done. Twenty minutes later he passes out and falls off a tall table stool right in his head. From there very poorly handled. Asked for our check to leave a little while later. It took over twenty five minutes to get our check. Even got up three times talked to the server and the closest employee, the door guy to ask for our check.finally came. We were overcharged for our drinks but at that point just wanted to leave. We may have been there on a bad night. It could have been worse... read more

'The Green' is a no-brainer. Great pub-grub, fun atmosphere, cozy interior, great patio in the summer, decent beer and booze selection and easily a place that ALL Walla Wallans frequent at least occasionally. The latter is an important thing to mention in a town of 35K. This is a place where the locals bump into each other often, and if you are wine or restaurant industry, you know you have a craving for something on the Green's menu at least once a week. This is where your food and bev people go to watch sports, tip a beer back and generally rub elbows with the rest of the community on their rare day off. Look, the Green Lantern's 'Achilles heel' is what is pretty typical for service standards in this town. It's 'on and off'. I think the 'off' times tend to be the weekends, where the place is so sh**-canned PACKED, it's a little finicky to rake them over the coals for it. Sundays is often times the 'B-team', but friendly nonetheless. All-in-all, I feel like the crew at the Green keeps it real. My faves are the usual (and you can ask the locals): - Nachos= UNREAL. By far the best in town and I've been hard-pressed to find better anywhere since I've tried these. - All things Thai Chicken- pizza and salad = BOMB diggy. - Fried Pickles- a Green staple. Dee-lish. Perfect crunch. Usually fun and interesting specials. Immaculate cleanliness. Great local sports bar/pub atmosphere. Good rotation and amount of taps. Best nights IMHO? Monday-Thursday. I think weekend nights can 'throw' your experience, as it can be a madhouse. 5-stars indicates tops in it's category, and there ain't another pub in town I go to more often. Cheers! read more

Fried pickles amazing... Otherwise; Whom ever the chef was at 4:45pm March 6, 2022, could have put a little more passion and effort into the pizza. Crispy crust, but the entire center was greased and soggy so I had to fold the pizza in half or the toppings would "run" off. And also I don't like how there is a recommended tip chart at the bottom of the receipts. No one should expect a tip for doing their job! Otherwise tip your Mail Carrier every time he leaves mail in your box. (: read more

Old tavern, cool people and stiff drinks. What more could you ask for? I'd take this place over wing zone any day!

Food is decent, but seems to go up in price every time I go. The real issue I have with The Green is the lack of good TVs for sports. Cmon man, 2002 called, they want their TV back! read more
