Very Relaxing

Charlies is friendly and a great place to meet people. Wide age span, so there is something for everyone.

Saturdays Are Best

A great place to meet and hang with friends. Country music until 2am then a mix-in with after-hours. Place can get pretty crowded and its best to start showing up around 10pm, and a total of three bars complete your drinking desires.

I had a great time!

I went for the dancing. I found that like any other bar of this type there were the die hard country boys bent on 2 steppin. Good for me. I was, however, charged 3 different prices for the same beer. Who ever designed the "remodel" should be fired. This is a difficult place to traverse when it's full of people. Nice bathroom. What makes this place OK for me is that all the negatives were well compensated by the quality of the patrons. A nice bunch of guys.

Pour On The Cologne!

Dont light a match. The Hispanic kids here wear way too much perfume here. Nice remodel of the old building but the staff has not evolved from the fifth grade. Drink specials suck and you have to wait way to long to get a watered down drink. Cant see any reason to ever go back. Miss this one if your in town for a short time.

has changed

I went into this bar crossdressed 5 years ago and loved it. Staff is friendly. The crowd however, is younger, rowdy and not as open-minded - I no longer feel as safe here after hours.
