Charlie's Restaurant Lounge

I can honestly say that this is one of the few restaurants where we can state that every menu item that we ordered was delicious. My wife ordered fried catfish with two sides of hush puppies and baked macaroni my order consisted of fried chicken livers wrapped in bacon with fried onion rings and squash as my two sides. We both sampled everything we ordered and gave it a big thumbs up. The only downside that we can state was that it took over 1/2 hour to get our order, despite a low number of patrons who where dining, and the waitress only checked in on us once. Most of the patrons were either playing Billiards and or drinking. Despite the long time to get our food we will be coming back again to make sure that this was just an anomaly.

It would be nice if the ladies working the bar had a system to actually know how long you played. I thought tables were $7.00 per hour. Last Tuesday (11-11-25) we played for two hours and was charged $7.00. Two weeks ago we played for an hour and a half and I was charged $17.50. When I questioned it I was told "according to the bar clock" I played 2 1/2 hours on table 14. I'm pretty sure there are only 11 tables. Basically I never know what it's going to cost me to play especially early in the day right after opening.

Took my date for dinner, drinks, & pool. We had a great time. Server suggested BBQ tater, meat is smoked in house! As a fellow server, I appreciate her suggestions and great demeanor

Went there today for the first time and it was a good visit. We were looking for a smoke free place to shoot pool.

Charlie’s has been around as long as I can remember. Soddy-Daisy has two long-standing bars, Charlie’s is one of them. It’s fun, the drinks are great, and the food is good.If you like pool you will love it. Sometimes there is live music.

DISGUSTING!! I Have eaten there off and on for years but the bbq plate & bbq potato I ordered were ridiculous for $35!! The potato was tiny but still $13!?!? The pork was burned & old & dry!! Smelled awful as soon as I opened it, & looked like dog food!! Even the hush puppies were old & stale & the fried okra old & soggy!! The entire 2 meals were so DISGUSTING I didn’t even eat!! I am literally throwing the entire thing in the garbage!!

Two Barcardi and coke and two Jose Cuervo 1800 silver tequila sunrises price 100. 00 barmaid couldn't remember our drinks didn't stay for any food . Did have nice billiards tables for 7.00 per hour.

What a great local place for great drinks and food. We had so much fun playing pool and listening to music.

This is a place I go to all the time. But tonight I ordered a pork chop with two sides. Not only did I pay $17.85 for the pork chop, but also $3.50 for my baked potato and $1.50 for my side salad. I will never eat there again. I may even never go back.

I have been here once or twice before. It is a typical local bar and biker type bar. They have pool tables, big bar and lots of seating. It has typical low cost seats and tables and is really just a local hangout. They have live music on weekends I think but not sure. Food is OK. I was there for a Motorcycle Toy run a couple weeks ago. There is plenty of parking and I think there is outside seating. While I appreciated, them "hosting" the start of the run at their facility, I was disappointed they did not have free coffee at least for everyone. Normally when you go on a run like this, the host location provides nonalcoholic drinks and snacks while everyone gets ready to go. They allow smoking if I remember but not quite sure. It is a nice place to go with friends but nothing fancy. I guess I can give it a 3.

Do you like dive bars with good food and great service? Me too! Charlie's Lounge is definitely the place for you. They have about ten pool tables that have been recently resurfaced. They DO allow smoking, except on Thursday and on Tuesday, anyone can come in and dine on the 10 dollar buffet, even kids. When I call Charlies a dive bar, it is meant as a COMPLIMENT. Its nice, has REALLY good food. Beer is decent priced (I got a pitcher of Budweiser for about 11-12 bucks). They have a big selection of food and I've never had a bad thing here. Our serve was Mandy. The place was very busy, but she took damn good care of my mother and me. The service here is usually good, but Mandy was great at her job. She has raised the bar for what I expect from Charlies going forward. Looking forward to my next meal and beer here soon.

What's up with Charlie's bar, we went there last night on my buddy's birthday and just wanted to get him a drink so I went up to the bar and the bartender cocked a attitude with me and told me to go sit in the back and my waitress would come back, so we sit back there for a hour and she never come back and so my buddy finally went up and got a drink at the bar and then they shut him off and said he was cut off, and then they told him they thought he was another table. I'm don't with that place. We have spent a lot of money at that place and never had any problems but after last night, I will never be back. We went to big Als bar in Dunlap in Dunlap after we got fed up and had great service and a very good time. I would recommend it 100 times more then Charlie's. No wonder they are always dead when we go over there.

Great small town bar. They make a really delicious burger. Smoke their own chicken, ribs, and pork. They also have a big chef salad with generous toppings. There is a buffet on Tuesday night only. $10 per person, which includes a personal size dessert. Tonight was choice of coconut cake, chocolate cake, or banana pudding. The buffet runs from 5:30-8:30 and includes salad bar, handmade chicken tenders, pulled pork, some very delicious Mac n cheese, and ribs. Get there early for the popular items though. We arrived at 7 and they were already out of ribs and ran out of Mac n cheese shortly after. The two best items apparently. But when they're out, they're out. Lots of pool tables, but Tuesday looks like league night. Music on Saturdays. Unfortunately, there's a $7 cover. Totally not worth it for the bands they get. Smoking is allowed so be prepared if you don't smoke. This isn't a fancy place at all, very laid back. Good food, good portions, good prices, and mostly friendly service. The regular bartender isn't very nice, but the waitresses have all been great. It's a great version of how a local dive bar should be.
