Charlie’s Eatery And Pub

I kind of like this place. I have been there a few times during my long stay in Rochester. One reason I like Charlie’s is because there’s usually not that many people there lol! Seriously though I like it not crowded and it feels kind of private. I first had chicken strips but they were more like chicken sticks and I didn’t really like them. Decided to give the place another shot and I got the patty melt and I thought it was very good. I also have tried the taco salad and it was good. Service is good– again probably because they don’t have a large amount of customers.

Unfortunately, I do not recommend Charlie’s Eatery and Pub. Although the food is «decent», the service very much lacks. I ordered a salad over the phone, since we were visiting a family member in the hospital, and it was close. I made the walk over to the restaurant, and I picked up the salad myself. At the time I had ordered extra ranch (don’t judge), but didn’t realize until I got back to the hospital room that I had absolutely no ranch. When I called to let them know, they were absolutely rude beyond belief. Apparently, it was my fault, because I did not double check. Regardless, I asked them if they wouldn’t mind delivering the dressing less than half a block to the hospital. I said I would meet them at the door. They delivered after more than 15 minutes. The delivery boy had a cigarette in hand, zero respect, and a chip on his shoulder. Although, the food was «decent» the service was the worst.

Very good. We split a ½ lb California melt and fry special for 8.99. They were very nice about splitting it. Even cut it in ½ and served it on 2 plates. We were greeted by the owner when we walked in which was super nice as was he.
Also a bar behind restaurant with happy hour specials from. 3−6pm.

Harty chicken sandwich –very tangy and very fresh brocolli cheddar soup. nice selection of bottled teas, juices and fizzie soda pop.
Quaint seating area indoors and very close to St. Mary’s hospital (Mayo)
