I expected it to taste just like candy but it was surprisingly light. For dinner I ordered the chicken parmesan . It came with large pieces of breaded chicken. It also had a very large portion of spaghetti. Everything was cooked well and the marinara sauce had wonderful flavor. I am always impressed by the large portions. I also think the prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. This is definitely my favorite restaurant to visit when I am in Terre Haute.

I had the Tweet Loaf melt which was perfect! The only complaint was that some of the guys didn't really taste the deluxe sauce on their burgers but everything else was great! I was very impressed with the menu variety, as well as service and would love to come back again if I'm in the area!

It's dated in the best possible way: dim lighting, worn-in character, familiar faces, and that unmistakable local hangout atmosphere where regulars clearly outnumber first-timers. The highlight here is the Tweety Burger, and honestly, that's the reason to come. It reminded me immediately of the classic Midwest style you'd find at places like Minor-Dunn in Highland, Indiana. The patty is smashed thin and cooked flat on the grill, giving it those crispy edges and deep, savory flavor you only get from a well-seasoned griddle that's seen years of use. It tastes homemade--not engineered, not trendy, just a straightforward burger done right. You can tell they take their time with the food. Nothing feels rushed or mass-produced. The burger comes out hot, flavorful, and satisfying without trying to be gourmet or overcomplicated. No towering Instagram presentation--just a solid, honest burger that delivers exactly what you want from a local pub. Service matched the vibe perfectly. The staff were personable, welcoming, and genuinely friendly in that small-town way that makes you feel less like a customer and more like a guest stopping by a neighborhood spot. Charlie's isn't flashy. It's not modern. And if you're looking for upscale dining or trendy décor, this isn't the place. But if you want an authentic mom-and-pop tavern experience with a burger that locals clearly treat as a tradition, it's worth the stop. Best advice: stick with the Tweety Burger. Don't overthink the menu. Order it, enjoy the atmosphere, and experience a piece of local Terre Haute character. Not a destination restaurant--but absolutely a solid local classic you should try at least once.

This is the second time I've ordered this Honey BBQ Chicken Salad, and it's just as good as the…read morefirst time... Disclaimer: this is for a delivery order so I can't comment on the restaurant. They provided plenty of wipes, napkins and utensils in the delivery bag. I travel frequently to the area so I do a lot of ordering out. I have eaten this salad before, and it's a large filling meal. The greens are fresh and crisp, and there is always a generous portion of well-seasoned chicken. I order with the lite balsamic vinaigrette which makes for a flavorful low carb/high protein meal. I have tried different flavors of their chicken wings, but I keep going back to these parmesan garlic wings. Took a star off as they were a little on the drier side this time, but still very yummy. You wouldn't think BWW would be great with salads, but this is a good one that I will continue to order over and over.

The wings were dried out and had an almost chemical taste to them like they were soaked in some weird solution. The tater tots were far from fresh, weirdly dark colored, and you could tell without a doubt they needed to change the oil in their fryer. We used to order from here fairly often but won't be anymore. We have better, local wings available. They only get 2 stars because my order was technically correct, just gross.
