Still a great overall place. Really disappointed in their take out service though because the quality is just not the same. My calamari came excessively dry. Will probably only eat in person now. read more

I love this place! The staff is always so welcoming and friendly--it really feels like a neighborhood place. The food is fantastic, and I especially love their weekend brunch menu. Daniel is always great and adds to the experience every time we visit. Since we moved into the Urby building, this has become a regular hangout for us. As a musician, I also appreciate their music selection--classic tunes that fit perfectly with the cozy, timeless vibe of the space. The design is beautiful, and it's one of those places that just makes you feel good when you're there. If you're looking for a spot to relax and enjoy good food in a great atmosphere, I'd definitely recommend Charley Bistro. read more

Quaint atmosphere minutes walk from the Element Hotel. Ate here before the Red Bulls game. The chicken schnitzel and burger were delicious. Also got the truffle Mac and cheese side and the portion was generous. Service was very attentive as well. read more

Absolutely excellent dining experience. As a retired C.F.O. of a fortune 100, I spent a lot of time in Austria/Germany. This new local gem will save you the flight time & jet lag... I had the Wiener Schnitzel which immediately flashed my tastebuds back to Vienna. My wife had the Short Rib Goulash which was perfectly tender and bursting with flavor. Looking forward to tasting the rest of the menu. Chef Gutenbrunner does not disappoint. read more

I have been here 4 weeks in a row. Consistently delicious. The chicken schnitzel is top tier - I dream about it. I would drink the kale and artichoke dip - the bread is a perfect pairing for it. Next level special. The wings are crispy and flavorful. The sliders are a great snack and perfect for my 4 1/2 year old. Love the fries. Burger is great. Drinks - definitely the fleur de lychee, espresso martini, golden hour tea and their spritzes. The decor is comforting but hip. The outdoor seating is great and dog friendly. Staff is wonderful. The way they turn over a table is magical. I will be sad when my boyfriend moves to New York with me and we can't come here every week for happy hour. Don't trust Rohit N. and Kathy W (both on google reviews). They clearly don't know what they are talking about. Definitely come here. read more

Absolutely loved my experience at Charley's From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The staff was incredibly attentive and kind. read more

My wife and I entered a fairly empty restaurant we were told by the man behind the bar that we could sit anywhere. My wife and I took a seat with a clear view of the door and the bar. We sat and waited for a server for over 10 mins and no one came to address us although there were to servers walking in and out of the dining are .We got up to leave the man at the bar asked if we were helped. We told him no and he allowed us to leave. My wife went back inside to ask for a manager and she was told there was no manager on duty. He did not make an attempt to encourage us to stay. read more

First time getting to stop into Charley and I will be back! The atmosphere is a TOTAL vibe - cute, cozy, and trendy. Nice, dim lighting and candlelit throughout makes it a great evening spot for happy hour or dinner. Chris was our server and had great recommendations for the drinks. Got the salmon as my entree and it was cooked perfectly. Great spot! read more

We went last night, Friday, April 25, 2025, we arrived 8:50pm, we ordered 1 beer and 1 drink, the beer arrived after 40 minutes because I had already complained 2 times about the delay, we stayed 1h40 in the place and my drink never arrived, the ugly carbonara cold and dry. The place is beautiful, the service in general was good, but the 40-minute delay for 1 beer was absurd! There was only 1 bartender to serve everyone, surreal! read more

Love it here! Cozy chic dining room and a simple yet sophisticated menu. Everything we have tried thus far has been delicious. We've tried brunch and dinner with friends, great service and food. read more

Nice vibe, we came here for Sunday dinner. Got flatbread and salad. Both are good. Samuel is wonderful and attentive

Came here before heading to the Red Bulls Arena, we ordered the spicy margarita, the ceaser salad and the Charley Burger. The burger and fries felt like they were missing some flavor both average. The bun was rather dry. The margarita was delicious and not too spicy once the ice started melting. The vibe was interesting with the old school posters wrapped around the wall where we ate. Service was efficient and our server was very attentive read more

Great food, drinks and company for a quick dinner at our nearby venue, The Charley! Also fun Friday vibes / ambiance! Thanks to our server Chris for the attentive services and keeping the drinks in the way read more

Food was delicious we enjoyed the tuna tartare, crab cakes, lobster roll and salmon! Really enjoyed the live music awesome bluegrass guitar and mandolin! Also, waiter Daniel was friendly and efficient. read more

Cool vibe and great drinks! Friendly staff and convenient parking in front. Their outdoor seating area is a plus!

Nice ambiance and setting, though tight quarters in terms of space for a group event. Bar was nice and inviting. Group had a fixed menu, but my selected items were bland. Caesar salad, salmon on brocollini, and raspberry cheesecake. Nothing stellar in flavor, or even presentation. The other dishes looked no better. Food was okay, setting nice. Would visit again for lunch. read more

Cozy atmosphere, great playlist. We ordered the salmon and the shnitzeo, both weee good. Will definitely come back for brunch!

Portion size was small for Charley's breakfast. I left hungry after a $20 meal. The rest of the party got French toast and said it was good. I wouldn't come back but if I did, I'd try that. read more

Charley's is a whole vibe! Good time and great food and drinks. Service was a 10/10. The staff were very friendly and quick with their service. read more

This restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere and the food and drinks are 5 stars. It is a hidden gem in the area. There is parking located in the apartment complex and once you go in this chic and beautiful dining space has the best drinks and food! I got a bunch of apps and dessert and everything was so so good. The service is also fab. I have not been here yet for brunch but it is on my places - I will be back and highly recommend you check this place out as well! read more

First time visiting Charley's. The ambiance was quiet and chill, very relaxing. The food and service were good. Our server Angelica was amazing, very engaging! read more

Great service, great happy hour deals for food and drinks, great cocktails, always a great time.

Love Charley!! Having the restaurant right in the neighborhood is fantastic! pigs in a blanket and an espresso martin are my go to's! Chris was a great server and was juggling the entire restaurant alone on a Tuesday night! Great service! read more

Great vibe, and delicious drinks and food! I've been here for a happy hour and had to come back for dinner, such a great spot.

While the space is cute, the vibe is very much not. Walked in with a party of five and was looked at by the bartender, and two other waiters and not a single person greeted us or said anything - I can bet a lot of money why, but I digress. We ordered bottomless mimosas which comes with a 90 minute time limit and damn near had to hound the staff to refill our carafes only to be met with attitude as if we were asking for too much, which is crazy because it' wasn't busy at all. $35 bottomless mimosas means my glass shouldn't be dry or at least not longer than 5 minutes, period. Anyway, this place is a skip. read more

Charley - espresso martini and old fashioned - Bars Near Me - Harrison, New Jersey

Great food and great community place but horrible management! The new manager is rude, disrespectful and raises to people who are not living in URBY. She Stuff is nice, food is good! Very pretty area! She does not know how to run the business and be in service industry! The staff is disoriented and the manager is rude mean and disrespectful !!! Instead of resolving the issue she made it clear that she is the BOSS and if I would feel comfortable sitting here after that ! My friends and I are locals and we used to spend all summer in this place. But after new manager came in town - I don't want to go back to this place at all!! Same as my friends who were joining me for that horrible served dinner.. read more

This place is a hidden gem! It's located in a nice area of Harrison with a lot of modern and new apartment buildings. As soon as you walk through the doors, you're greeted by a super cute/retro restaurant ambiance. We wanted to grab a quick drink at the bar before being seated and we were greeted by a very nice bartender. 5/5 because those were well made drinks. I happened to get an espresso martini! Throughout the night we ordered appetizers prior to ordering dinner. The food here is light, flavorful and authentic. I highly recommend giving this place some love! read more

First time here today. We went for an 11:30am brunch. We ordered 2 bloody mary (1 regular, 1 spicy), 1 mimosa, french toast, eggs benedict with smoked salmon, rainbow salad with salmon and breakfast bowl. Everything was delicious and tasted fresh. The restaurant itself has a great vibe. There is both indoor and outdoor seating, although we sat inside. The highlight of our visit was Sam. I had read so many reviews raving about his service, so as soon as we walked in, I asked for Sam. And none of the reviews were lying! Sam is the BEST!!! He made great food recommendations since we were torn about a couple of things. We never had to ask for anything since he stopped by to check on us at just the right time. I hope we get Sam again the next time we come. This place is a 5/5 for me and I'm very hard to please. I highly suggest making reservations. Although we arrived a little before our 11:30am reservation time and were the 1st ones there, the place got packed very quickly, both inside and out. read more

Nice vibe, great food, and great staff. Daniel was fantastic! Can't wait to come back~

The service and the food are great! We got the burger and chicken salad, both very good. Love the pretzel bun! Will definitely come back again read more

If you're looking for a "best kept secret" in the Harrison area...this is it. Not too crowded, the patio set up is a whole viiiibe...I felt like I was in the Caribbean. Parking is horrendous in this area so if you can opt for walking or Uber. The drinks *chefs kiss* I had a Manhattan (best I've had in Jersey) and I also had a cocktail from their menu which was great. If you get their fries opt for the aioli dip. The salmon and spinach was cooked to perfection...my only issue was a small piece of Saran Wrap was atop of my dish. They quickly rectified this. The dessert was meh...I wish the whipped cream was ice cream instead but honestly I'm not a sweets/dessert type of person so you may love it! I'm definitely going back to chill on their patio and have several drinks in the near future ^_^ read more

Cute place. Cozy. Food was solid. The lemon vinaigrette on salad was so good. It's the trendy kind of place with small tables and basically on top of each other. Drives me nuts as that's fine for Manhattan. Bathroom was modern, clean. Music is insanely loud. That was a huge turn off as people are on dates, meeting up with old friends. Website says parking is complimentary and there's a lot on the behind the restaurant. Banner says "Charley " but I missed it. And not sure how it's paid for. Like if Charley validates a ticket. Maybe another had it and I haven't read reviews. read more

This is one of the most beautiful and aesthetically pleasing restaurants. Definitely one of more upscale restaurants in northern NJ. The food and drinks aren't that expensive either. Both the food and drinks taste great. Also everyone servicing is so nice and kind. 10/10 recommend this place! read more

The place is super cute for lunch, they have seating both inside and outside the staff is super nice. As far as the food it's nothing out of the ordinary. Chicken sandwich lacked flavor and the margerita flatbread needed more garlic. read more
