    Found this place by chance. It was packed with people for breakfast so went in. Sat the counter since we didn't want to wait 15-20 min for a table. Servers were very friendly and efficient, filling our coffee and water. Breakfast was just as delicious with lots of options. We ordered the Charlies special omelet, breakfast platter and pancakes. Love the pancakes and sausage. I'm very picky about pancakes and this was spot on. Fluffy and flavorful. We all enjoyed our meal.

    Everything you need is at your table.

    I eat here often enough but have never posted. You know when a local spot is consistent, reviews are an after thought. Not today! I arrived on a Sunday at about 8:30 with open seating. I was quickly offered a beverage upon being sat with menu in hand. My order was promptly taken and food prepared. I ordered the Grandpa John's scramble (half size because whoa their full size portions here are massive). What I really love is that they don't season your food... meaning I control the salt. This is major for me!! The other thing is they let me be...coming by the table at just the right intervals. Today, Maribel is my server (& has been in the past) so she remembers preferences. That's huge!! If you want a solid breakfast with excellent customer service, I highly recommend Charlie's.

    I finally made it to Charlie's!

    If you're looking for an adorable diner in Enumclaw, look no further than three generation, family run, and family owned Charlie's Café. The interior is kitschy cute and the service staff is wonderful. The menu has tons of options, and the food is quite good. Now that I found in Charlie's and I know they're only open until 2 PM, I know I'll make plans to be back. If I lived locally, I would be a regular. Be sure to check them out.

    Coffee always topped up.

    I'd give this place 10 stars if I could. Seriously the BEST customer service I've ever had!! Our waitress came by several times to make sure that our coffee cups were always topped off. Our water was topped off and she was super friendly. Just for that alone I'd recommend this place. The food was great as well! I had two 4" waffles with strawberries and whip cream. The menu said they were crispy and they sure were. So many times Belgian waffles get soggy when you put the toppings on them but these were crispy until the very last bite. I will be back very very soon.

    Pancakes with Vampire face :)

    Saturday mornings are quite busy at Charlie's Cafe. We were quoted a 15 minute wait for three people, however we were seated in about 5 minutes. Service was quick and friendly but the food was just mediocre. I would say it's comparative to a Denny's but with larger portions. I love the puzzle decorations they have on the walls.

    3/5/23. I need to stop taking a bite from the entree!!

    Charlie's is a favorites for sure. It's such a cool 1950's, Cola themed restaurant that offers the best of both of worlds of Breakfast and Lunch. Today I ordered the spicy burger without pepper-jack. I really appreciate that they give you the option to "build" your burger the way you want to. The jalapeños offered a nice spice to the burger and the pickles only made it better. The onion rings here are also good but a little too greasy. I have had many other lunch foods here such as the chicken wrap (fried), popcorn shrimp, chicken strips and more. Their bacon, cinnamon rolls and waffles are the best that I have ever tasted and their waitresses are so sweet and very attentive to your foodie needs. 4.8/5

    biscuit's and gravy french toast eggs sausage  horrible food and service will not return.

    Disappointed. The waffle is actually fried. Very greasy and tastes like the funnel cake batter. Bacon is OK.

If you have had Spanish Patatas Bravas, then you'll know that dish is primarily potatoes, and that's the experience you would expect. However, this is an American breakfast joint that probably is not trying to make Patatas Bravas. When the food came, it was cold. When my wife confronted the lead waitress about it, she said, "wow, you must be pissed. We've never had a complaint before." To credit the staff, they grudgingly refunded the amount of our meal, and were testy about our complaints. They seemed to not care because they said "if you ever decide to come back again" which shouldn't ever be said to any customer. We make the choice to come, and we felt like the restaurant is trying to cut costs through using cheaper ingredients. In this case, a lot of poorly cooked and soggy potatoes. We were not impressed. Maybe the other items on the menu are much better? Scrambles had their own box on the menu, and seemed to be their signature dishes. A lot less potatoes would be a major improvement. Better yet, hearing feedback from customers and acting on it, even better. Most of the fixes are simple. Adjust the ingredients. Everything needs to be served much hotter! The blueberry muffin arrived barely warmed, too dry and without any butter. I felt the whole dining experience could have been much better.

Proper Patty ($11) - This burger comes with two smash patties, both of which are heavily salted and somewhat crisped up - the pictures from other people make it seem like they cook long enough to get lacy caramelized edges, but it's not quite to that point. Instead, the burgers, while not moist and fatty, aren't dried out either, and give a great beefy flavor. The burger sauce adds some tangy sweetness, and some pickles on top adds even more sweetness, but a very fresh crunch. It's otherwise pretty standard with the lettuce and tomato. A solid smashburger. (4/5) Fries ($5) - These are fried enough to give a crust on the potatoes, but not enough for the fries to be come crisp. Still, they aren't floppy, so while not entirely crisp, these are still good for eating especially since the insides are nice and fluffy. They are salted a lot, which combined with the salty dip (we went with the Bud's Sauce), equals a parched mouth after eating. I think they actually use a lime salt or something as I can detect a bit of citrus flavor. The Bud's Sauce is a nice mayochup mixture with I think a bit of smokiness from paprika and some chopped onion. It's sweet, tangy, and salty. (4/5) Overall Burger Buds serves some nice classic smashburgers! It's great for a visit while in town for a quick and easy meal.
