    This is a vintage family restaurant with great breakfasts, The menu is varied and the prices are very good for this area. The average age of the diners is between 75 and deceased, but that is a positive in a lot of ways. The decor is nothing fancy, but that is not why you come here. The servers are generally very experienced and good at their jobs.

    A 5 STARS I was extremely satisfied with Charlie's Eatery!! The food was outstanding. I had a group of 11 for Easter .. some in our group ordered off the menu and others enjoyed the Buffet. All food on the Buffet was excellent... and I will say better than any buffet I've ever been to. Our waitress was so pleasant and efficient. Overall experience, top notch!

    Seems like a place locals go was nice seeing server greet people by name and still giving me a stranger from out of town attention as well.
