Charlie’s Alpine Bistro offers a nice space with a live musician and a view. The food is good, with highlights such as scotch eggs, burrata crostini, French onion soup, and scrambled eggs that many diners praise. Portions can be small and some menu items may be unavailable when the delivery truck arrives late. Prices are good, though some guests note that the restaurant is cash only and that a $15 cocktail was charged after the bill was paid. Service varies: some servers are attentive and responsive, while others are slow or lack interaction. The kitchen staff sometimes help clear tables, and a team effort is seen on busy nights. Overall, the atmosphere is nice and the building feels brand new. Customers appreciate the food but a few report disappointment with service, delays, and billing errors, which may discourage repeat visits.
