    During a visit to town for Father's Day, my husband and I placed a large order to share with…read morefamily. We had a 16-piece meal that came with 8 biscuits, and 3 large sides (cole slaw, mac and cheese and mashed potatoes and gravy). This was my first time eating here and I was rather impressed with the clean store, fast and efficient service and the accuracy of our order. Our wait was rather entertaining as well. You can tell that this is a popular spot with the locals. There were lots of "hi there" and "hellos" as well as some additional shenanigans. The place felt familiar in a very welcoming way. As previously stated, it was Father's Day, so many folks were dressed in their Sunday's best, but others were very casual. This is a pick-up only restaurant and there isn't a place to eat inside, but there was a small bench available for those waiting on their orders. It was busy, with a diverse clientele, but the staff worked diligently to get everyone in and out quickly. The food was delicious. The chicken was crispy and flavorful. The mac and cheese was creamy and the coleslaw had a nice bite to it. I wonder if the recipe includes horseradish. Everything felt reminiscent of KFC, but better...fresher. We'll definitely be back in the future.

    feels like stepping into a true old-school neighborhood tavern--the kind of place that hasn't tried…read moreto reinvent itself because it doesn't need to. 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.

The motif is a mix of outdoor and motorcycles. Service either inside or out has always been good. They do have bands on some days. My only complaint is that during our most recent visit, Father's Day, there was no tap beer available outside. Something in my opinion that should never be the case.

    Not what I remember. Been a while since I've been there, and apparently, it's changed hands…read more Saturday evening, there's a band, it's busy. All good signs. Good crowd, dinners on tables looked great as we were seated. And waited. Short-staffed, it seemed. The three of us asked for a bit of time to decide. We certainly got that! When server returned in the nick of time, I was ready to leave. Ordered 2 starters and dinners. Prompt service, but very small proportions. I guess if the prices aren't printed on the menu and something like "subject to market pricing" is, that should be a sign. Friend 1 ordered a burger and fries. Good proportions. For him. Friend 2 ordered the cod sandwich and fries. Looked like something one would find on a school cafeteria tray. Me and friend 2 had literally half as many fries as Friend 1. I had ordered the "fish basket". Long John's is a larger meal, at a better price! It was literally a kid's meal. Slaw came out earlier than the meal. Not cold, but cool enough and was OK. Fries were undercooked and warm. NOT hot. The meal literally would not have satisfied an 8 year old. Fish with no smell, other than cooking oil, which smelled OK, but no fish smell? Meanwhile, the guy at the next table had a tenderloin big enough for 2 people, and enough onion rings, too! Server returned, and I sent the meal back. By then, friends were nearly done eating. Server asked why. I explained it calmly. Instead of trying to compensate, I got an argument. I left. I won't be going back. Why 1 of 3 in a party would get a good sized dinner, while the other 2 gets kids' meals is beyond me. And no offer other than "Would you like to order something else?" If we had another hour to kill and someone else to dine with, maybe... but... no. $24 for 2 drinks, a sandwich and fries for a child (maybe...a small child) and 1 small appetizer, to me, is ridiculous. It's a shame, because it was a long drive for us, and it's been a while since I've been well enough to go out and enjoy an evening with friends. I was really looking forward to it, and ended up sorely disappointed. Can't recommend this place any more.

Buffalo Chicken: 6/10 -- my sister got this and rated it a 6 (because there are no 7s on my scale). for $15+ and no side of fries this was kind of a scam sandwich lol #recessionindicator Sweet Lou's: 6/10 -- heavy on the sweet i was a fool i looooove bbq but their special "q sauce" was a bit like molasses rather than classic bbq. the patty, onion ring, and bacon were perfect but i literally could not taste them without scraping off the sticky sauce. again, $15+ and no side i feel like the flavor wasn't enough for me to recommend this to anyone. Tender & Fries: 6/10 -- what in the walmart brand frozen curly fries without salt nonsense on a plate was this... they got us LOOOOL... great value??? YEAH hard pass!!!! I was visiting my sister and she recommended this place because she had heard about it from fellow IU students. My thoughts: come for the IU memorabilia, and ambience, eat an order of onion rings (maybe sip a beer) while you watch a game and leave! The food was mediocre at best and wayyy overpriced.

Not only are dogs allowed to dine inside, but they offer water bowls AND a good doggie dining menu! This is especially great when the weather is cold (or too warm!) There were no complaints from my pup as she downed her 'Lucky' meal. Our waiter, John, mentioned that all of the doggie dining menu options were actually named after the owners current dogs! Cute touch! Service was warm and attentive (thanks John!) and they were incredibly accommodating on our food substitutions since I don't eat meat. I was also excited to see that they had a good sized menu with a variety of options-- sandwiches, burgers, salads, appetizers, hot dogs, and desserts. I wouldn't say it's a full 'dinner' restaurant, but great tasting, fresh, AND flavorful meatless options which are great for vegans/vegetarians. They had dedicated parking, patio area, an upstairs (I'm sure is amazing in the summer!) and clean restrooms. I even noticed signage in the women's restroom that encouraged safety for 'Angel shots' in case anyone felt unsafe and needed to communicate safely with the bartender for a ride home or the police! They also have live events, music, and great drink specials. It's right on Indiana State University campus so it could be missed, but don't overlook this gem! -- 5/5 from this Pup Mom
