This is literally my favorite breakfast spots for the last 15 years! Try it out. Grab a charlies burrito. This place is Old School Country style. Service is amazing. Professionalism is on point. Coffee is always good. There is a certain charm that reside here that can't be found anymore. Trust me ... If you have not been here, give it a chance to be your favorite too!

Been coming here for years and realized I’ve never dropped a review but hands down my #1 breakfast go to spot. Best place around, the staff are incredible, some of the best people you’ll ever meet. The food is delicious and the coffee is perfect. I’d give more stars if I could.

The food is amazing! I wish they had more smaller plate options for senior citizens. I had to order a plate that had three eggs. I can only eat one. It was $24.00 I couldn't order a la carte either. I asked for only one egg but they still charge me the $24.00 .

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.

Charlie's offers a variety of different options on their menu. Wonderful customer service. I would go just for the cookies and cream, fudge.

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!

Laid back cowboy breakfast joint. Cool spot. Gave me some cool hand Luke kind of vibes. I eat a lot of spicy food, and if you like real spice, ask for the omelet with the habenero sauce. It was hot but also delicious. Hard to find something that's hot with great flavor but this was amazing.

My son and I recently visited for an enjoyable breakfast 🍳before departing for a visit to Grandma's house.✈️ We enjoyed an invigorating wall through the local neighborhoods before sitting down for our meal. My son had previously visited with his recently departed Pop-pop, so this was a great trip down memory lane. 🚶‍♂️ The restaurant is clean, plenty of parking, spacious dining area, smells like yummy food cooking. My son had pancakes 🥞 and bacon. 🥓 I had biscuits and heavy with chicken🐔 fried steak.🥩 Our waitress was overly kind and attentive. She even knew Pop-pop! Our experience was so tremendous. Highly recommended‼️ Also, be sure to get the fudge!

Homie vibe, amazing service, and amazing food. You can tell they care. You don't just have your server check on you, its anyone who's working there. Your water cup is never empty, and the food is out quick. Its served hot, fresh, and delicious. Its the first time in a long time that I have been somewhere that had both amazing service and amazing food that surpassed my expectations. ALL THE STARS FOR CHARLIE'S CAFE!
