“good food and a very cozy friendly atmosphere.“

“A historic tavern turned into a grungy dive bar - and it works!

The food is amazing. The Poe burger is easily one of the best I've had in my life. Didn't get around to try the drinks, but they do have a decent collection of beers on tap.

The vibes are chill. They have both bar and table seating, service at the former is splendid. There's some historical curiosities here and there - perhaps most famously the belt fans above, but also some tidbits behind the bar. Ask your server!

All in all, worth writing home about.“

“I’ve been coming here for years and it’s time to share. Casual bar with great comfort food. They have specials during the week and activities like trivia Monday nights. Bar tenders always a pleasure. Everything I’ve had has tasted great. I’ve had a lot more as I come here a few times a month. Pizza, subs, wings, fried dough, tacos and more. A must try when you’re in the area. Some nights can get busy so be aware of the crowd.“

“First, I'd like to say I tried contacting Charlie's before I went this route. I didn't get a response. I've been to Charlie's with a group of 8 for lunch. It was very good. We got what we ordered and everything was delivered together. On Friday, 4 of us went there for food and drinks before the Folk Festival. Okay, Corona, I asked for lime. Didn’t get it. No biggie. Two of us ordered hamburgers, one ordered a tuna sandwich, the 4th haddock. Nope, no haddock. Okay, sirloin tips. Nope. Country chicken. Nope and don't know what it is. Okay....I'll have a hamburger. 15 minutes after (mind you 25 minutes have already passed), sorry. no buns. How about white bread! 40 minutes after initial order, hamburger on white bread and something resembling a tuna sandwich (?) arrives. We felt sorry for the waitress. But definitely poor service. I'm sorry I have to post this, I like helping local businesses, but lack of listed items was horrible.“
