“The Charlton Tavern has a rustic pub charm vibe throughout. The French Onion Soup is outstanding!! We went on a Tuesday (not super busy) night for dinner, we had reservations (which I highly recommend). Three of us orders burgers, which were cooked to perfection, fries and onion rings. The other two in our party ordered fried haddock, perfect crispy outside with a great crunch. Chocolate Mousse (smoothie, rich and creamy) and Chocolate lava cake (decadent chocolate lovers treat) for dessert rounded out our meal. Definitely plan to go back to experience more of their menu.”

I also got the house salad, which was fresh and crisp, and easily enough for two people. The garlic bread was tasty and plentiful as well. Everything arrived hot, all the way to Saratoga Springs at 10 PM. Great food, generous portions, and excellent service. I’ll definitely be ordering again!””
