Every time I come here, I’m never disappointed! Me and my husband are vegetarian, and we always can find the most wonderful food. It’s vegetarian. My husband gets the eggs Benedict and I get the vegetarian omelette, even got biscuits and gravy with no meat in the gravy. If you haven’t tried this place, come try it!
We loved this place. The food was delicious and our server was very nice. One of our meal we ordered was the vegetarian omelet which I enjoyed. Everything was cooked well and not salty like other places! We will definitely come back and try other things.
Talk about a real old school home style plate. This Cafe gives me vibes of the 90s with its service and plate size. The Benny options are awesome & the food is delicious. I love that they open so early & are so kind and the price is right.
My Dad took me to breakfast there recently. I was quite surprised when we entered the cafe..it had a warm, welcoming atmosphere and felt very comfortable. I had a huge meat omelet, hashbrowns were great and I definitely will be going back sometime soon!
The lady that I presume was the owner, comes across as the type of person to make assumptions based on how someone looks or is dressed. My 12-year-old daughter and I went in for breakfast for the first time based on their 4.5 star rating. Dressed in pajamas (it was a Saturday morning and early) we put our names on the list and sat in the corner waiting to be called. My daughter needed to use the restroom so I told her to go up and ask where it was. The lady who responded to her (the owner/boss) told my daughter the restroom was only for paying customers and then walked away from her without further inquiry. My daughter, being a child, did not realize her response should have been that we are in line to eat and I need to use the restroom. Instead, my daughter walked back to where we were sitting with a concerned look on her face because she needed to use the restroom.
Seeing this, I walked up and stated that we were there to eat and my daughter needed to use the restroom, please tell her where it is. It is unfortunate that in this day and age people still judge a book by the cover instead of asking questions to get to the truth. Once my daughter came back from the bathroom, we were seated and received our menus. I ordered coffee, orange juice, and water to drink, and my daughter ordered a hot cocoa and water. The water was tasty and clean, the coffee was well flavored and not burnt, and the orange juice was delicious and most likely fresh squeezed. That is where the good news stopped.
I ordered a kitchen omelette, which is a four egg omelet with a multitude of vegetables, extra crispy hash browns, and biscuits and gravy on the side. My daughter ordered the french toast with fruit. What I received was by far the blandest food I may have ever tasted at a restaurant. There was absolutely no flavor to the food. Putting salt on it finally gave it some sort of flavor, which was the flavor of salt alone. My daughter's food was covered in a strawberry jam instead of strawberries, it did have tasty banana slices, but there was enough whipped cream to choke a grown adult! There may have been more whipped cream than actual French toast. Her food was also essentially flavorless too.
The customer service while at the table was ok as they came back once to refill my coffee. Beyond that, this was not a good experience and even worse food. They did not even have what prices I paid on the bill. It was just a total. And our bill was almost $40 to boot! We will not be going back to Charlie's and I have no idea how this place has a 4.5 star rating.
Deliciousness in a strip mall--Charlie's fits the bill. This is a large, open, clean Western-themed cafe serving delicious lunch, and breakfast fare. Friendly servers work hard to give you a pleasant dining experience. Be sure Charlie's is on your list of cafés to try.
