Another relaxing time on the patio at Charlie's. Our server was excellent. She was professional and friendly. She was timely with the refills and checking on us. The cinnamon roll is outstanding. Made fresh that day. We had this as a dessert. It was slightly warm and packed with delicious cinnamon! The roll was soft on the inside and a bit firmer on the outside. There was plenty of sugary icing - but not over the top sweet. We also had a Cobb salad and avocado toast entree. Both were very fresh and tasty. The grilled chicken on the Cobb salad was a bit dry. It was nicely grilled and slightly seasoned with a southwestern flavor. read more

A time was had! What a charming, quaint, spacious spot this is. The decor was minimal, but totally fit the aesthetic. I sat in the expansive patio area. There was ample seating and space between tables. The service was excellent. Our waitress was attentive and detailed with explanations. She was honest regarding menu items she has yet to try, everyone's food and drink was exactly as ordered . The food was good. I ordered the shrimp tacos, which were excellent and the mango salsa was a bright addition with a crisp sweet flavor. My sons had the brisket grilled cheese with fries, I had a taste and it too was packed with flavor, my other son had the buffalo chicken loaded tator tots, you can never go wrong there. I love that I ended the month of May at such a nice location with good food, service, and company. read more

I've visited Charlie's Place on a numerous occasions. The breakfast/ brunch is great, the dinner not so much. The avocado toast during brunch is amazing! The salmon with the broccoli and Spanish rice is mediocre. The salmon is overcooked and the Spanish rice and broccoli lacks flavor. They have a great selection of drinks which was a plus. The most recent time I came, the service was very slow. The inside wasn't packed, maybe 3-4 tables, the outside was pretty steady but the service was slow. Our waitress was okay - she could have been more attentive in my personal opinion. Overall, I'd still come back for the avocado toast alone! read more

What a fantastic place! Not only is there a classy indoor dining room that feels like an upscale lounge, there's a tropical feeling patio and a covered patio with a bar halfway between both. The food and drink are delicious, the staff is kind and thoughtful (someone even went and turned on the Champions League Final on the tv we were closest to) AND dogs are permitted on the patio. We are from out of town and boy did we luck into the best experience. Brunch menu is delicious. Portion sizes are huge. Everything was great. read more

My in-laws were visiting town, and we were excited to bring them to your establishment, as we have been regular patrons. We arrived early on Friday evening, expecting it to be busy, and were first in line to be seated. The host initially asked us to wait to the other side so guests with reservations could be seated first, which we completely understood. However, when the host returned, she completely ignored us and proceeded to seat parties who arrived after us who don't have reservations as well without any explanation or acknowledgment. This was extremely disappointing, especially since we were looking forward to a pleasant dining experience with our family. read more

I was there for a musical performance of one of my favorite bands. As always they were great! My food was amazing and so was my friend's choice. The service was great although not enough for the extra event. We had to wait over half an hour to get a drink. Other people sitting at our table were ordering 2 at a time in order to not wait as long. We were not allowed to go order our own drinks. My other comment is that there a few empty tables closer the stage that would have allowed us and others to have more space. Most likely they were reserved but the people didn't confirm or show up? If that was the case, I would think the tables would have been open for others by 1/2 an hour after the band started playing. Charlie's Place is always a fun and favorite spot in the summer on the patio and when they have live music. Service is always great and the best clean restrooms are a plus. read more

Made a reservation days in advance and confirmed it the night before, but still waited about 10 minutes to be seated - despite many open tables. Once seated, the experience didn't improve. Multiple parties around us were greeted, served, and had drinks before our server ever acknowledged us. In fact, he seemed to forget we had already been waiting and hadn't received our drinks and started to introduce himself again before realizing the mistake. After about 30 minutes, we were ready to order, but our server was stretched thin across the restaurant with no visible support from other staff. At that point, it felt like ordering food or even getting another round of drinks would take just as long. We paid and left. Not the experience we expected, and not one we'll be returning for. read more

We love Charlie's Place. There are great drinks, both alcoholic and non alcoholic, the food is tasty, and the vibes are on. Its a great place for brunch, date night, or a night out with friends. The servers were very nice and attentive. read more

Looking for a good Happy Hour spot while in Ft. Wayne Indiana working for a few days. I decided on Charlie's Place on a Thursday (while they pour all their cocktails for Half Price) after seeing on Yelp! I had already eaten and was staying in the area so I stopped in around 6:00 p.m. and sat at the nearly empty (large) bar. The bar was empty because the outdoor patio seating, large tables and seating for larger groups was filling up fast, a very popular place it seems. The bartender (Anna?) was very attentive even considering she was pouring and shaking drinks non stop for the nearly two hours while I was there. I chose the Toasted Pecan Old Fashioned and at $7.00, this was one of the better versions of the classic that I have tasted, every detail was nailed down to the large clear cube of ice, orange zest and luxardo cherry. Once I had time to take in that Old Fashioned, I tried the Moscow Mule and this was a very refreshing finish to the long day, so much so that I ordered a second Mule before leaving. I did not eat while on this visit as I had eaten just before stopping to try Charlie's. I did see very good looking dishes being served, I look forward to enjoying dinner AND drinks on my next visit, this was a very enjoyable experience regardless! read more

Went here for the first time for dinner and was very impressed! The food was really good. This place was very big, plenty card games and board games you can grab and play with. A perfect spot to get together with friends! In the summer, the whole restaurant is all opened so it might get a little muggy fyi. read more

Great food and drinks in a chill and fun atmosphere! Always have a good time when I go here!

We don't live anywhere near Fort Wayne. We're 2 1/2 hours away in Frankfort Illinois but we go there once in a great while to exchange grandkids with my son who lives in Hudson, Ohio a suburb of Cleveland so he picked this place Charlie's to meet us for a lunch repass and it was very good. They have a very short suite menu, but what I had was terrific I had a a salad with salmon on it and a lot of other veggies. It was terrific. The salmon was jerk, salmon, and the whole thing was a delicious repast. We had a appetizer of a couple bowls of their homemade chips. Unlike many places that don't salt them. These were salted just the right amount not too salty and I can't say anything bad about it. Our server was terrific and his name was Alex and the place is shaping up. I guess they just took it over from someplace else. The walls are a little bit bare needs a little more decoration and the ceiling is bare, but the chairs are very comfortable so it's an easy five star. read more

I had a great time here for their 90s Brunch. I ordered the breakfast tacos and they were delicious. The jalapeno sour cream was not too spicy, it was just right. I also tried the guava punch and it tasted great. The staff did not seem very enthusiastic, but the service itself was good. I will definitely be back with others. read more

Such a fun stop, We came by during a birthday bar crawl with a limo and had a blast. Charlie's has a great vibe and even a few tasty mocktail options that some of our group loved. They also run a daily Old Fashioned special, which was a big hit several of us went back for seconds! Definitely a spot we'd return to. read more

I set up a sorority Christmas party here and when I got there they didn't have the room warmed up that we were going to have the party in. They said it would probably be too cold so we could set up in the main restaurant. That was not what I reserved. Very disappointed!!!! Very cold in the main restaurant most of the night then at the end they turned up the heat. The room was not heated prior to our arrival. When I got there I was told it was going to be too cold. I would have liked it pre heated so we could make a decision. I was given a choice of a freezing room or a cold in the restaurant table. We had 18 people that showed up and I was told when I arrived if 20 didn't attend we would be charged $20 to heat the room. We normally have 25-30. Needless to say we won't be back. Only positive of the night was our server Drew!!!! He was great!!!!! read more

This weekend we got to try brunch at Charlie's place. It's surprisingly tucked away and we've driven by it multiple times without realizing that there was a restaurant here. We had showed up at about 12 expecting that there would be a wait for a table which there was, however, it was not because there was a long line. This was due to the host needing to clear and clean the table for us which took 10 minutes. It took another 35 minutes for someone to come and take our order. Meanwhile, as we looked around the dining room people were leaving after being finished with lunch and many of the tables were not cleaned. Took another 15 to 20 minutes for our food to arrive. I had the chicken and waffles. Thechicken was moist and perfectly fried. The waffles were OK. I got to try a few of the other items as well, but they did run out of cinnamon rolls. The breakfast tacos have too much potatoes in them which overpowers the other ingredients/also not a fan of the crumbled sausage. The prime rib sandwich was meaty however, it would've been easier to eat if the prime rib was sliced thinner. Last but not least was the big chocolate pancakes, which were delicious and fluffy. Overall, the experience was OK, but I would prefer not having to wait an hour + for brunch. They also ran out of utensils while we were there and it took a while for them to bring that to the table. On the plus side if you like self serve coffee they have a coffee bar with many different pump flavors. read more

Had a late Sunday brunch here. The restaurant didn't seem very busy but our service was kind of slow. The food was good, most of the dishes we ordered could've had a bit more seasoning. The loaded tots were the best thing we had. So good. Chicken tenders had a nice, light and crispy breading but needed some seasoning. Chicken and waffles were not bad but the waffles needed some butter. Salmon salad, again not bad but needed some more seasoning. The place has a fun vibe, the patio looks amazing. And we enjoyed the variety of different sports on tv. read more

The food was great but it's pricey. We carried out Mac and cheese with pulled pork (for my 2 yo.... It was hard to not eat it, it was so good). 2 burgers, a salad and the Korean beef wrap. When I called to place the order the staff was very nice but kind of inexperienced. You could tell because when I asked if I could pay over the phone, they put me on hold to check. Spoiler; you can't. Which was embarrassing and inconvenient as I had out of town guests picking dinner up to bring in. Everything tasted amazing though so 4 stars for just the food. We don't have babysitters so it's unlikely I'll ever know what the actual restaurant looks like but I heard the vibe is really nice as our friends picked up at the bar. read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about the staff, food, and atmosphere at Charlie's Place. They were wonderful in accommodating our large group on their beautiful patio. Even with a higher than expected attendance, they handled everything with great attitudes and exceptional hospitality. They had the food beautifully displayed and ready for our guests upon arrival. Choosing a menu and paying for catering was easy, and they were quick to respond when we needed to increase our order. Cristy went above and beyond to help make our event a success and made it a highlight moment for our group. read more
