Charlie's Cafe

LOVE home cooked food and this is great, home cooking! If you want a small, hometown diner where you listen to the local farmers chatting and watch Andy Griffith while you eat come to Charlie's. We've been several times and will definitely return!

When walking into this restaurant, it looked very dirty. It looked like an old gas station. It was so crowded that you could not even walk through the aisles. They were not very friendly. No one said welcome or even acknowledged you coming in. They came and asked what we wanted to drink, we said water with lemon, they only had lemon packets. The salads my daughter and husband ordered looked old and a lot more cheese than anything else. Then our regular food came out...OMG...my husband ordered the 21 PC shrimp, he only got 11, his pinto beans had to have a lot of ketchup to be eaten. My daughters cashew chicken was nothing more than brown gravy with cashews on top and the chicken was hard. My tenderloin was the best part of my meal, but everything was cold...my biscuits and gravy had to be sawed to get through it the biscuits were very hard. My hashbrowns were old and cold, I never season my food, but I had to put a lot of salt and pepper on my food to even be able to eat it. It was horrible. I should have stopped, but I have wanted a homemade slice of chocolate pie forever and she promised they made it themselves...this was the worst pie I had ever eaten. It tasted so old...could not even eat the crust...it tasted old and freezer burnt. When my husband went up to pay he told them about the pie...she was so rude and said I will let them know! This is the worse place I have eaten at in a long time. If I could, I would give it no stars. If you eat here, I hope you have a better experience. Oh...forgot to tell you about our waitress, just rude, never came back to check on us or anything we had to ask for more water. HORRIBLE!

Amazing food, great service, fantastic quality! Some of the best food I've had in ages!

Food was great, hot and fresh plus the prices were very reasonable for the amount of food we got! Tenderloin Sandwich and fries..delicious!

This is the classic family diner with your favorite dishes!

Awesome service and good food. One of those small places where everyone talks to you like you've been best friends forever, and most may even remember your name.

We tried Charlie's Cafe on Memorial Day. Not only were they open, but it was fun, local flavor. Onion rings were great and everything else was really good too.

The meal was super good. The wait staff was great. Did not care at all for the pie crust but the inside of the pies were good.

The food here is pretty good. It is where the locals eat, being a small town that is not saying much, however, the place was fairly busy. We drove frome Branson (a 15 minute drive) and we were not disappointed!

Food is AWESOME and the People are Very Friendly, we WILL be going back again. It's Clean and Quiet. Prices are VERY REASONABLE. Must go there
