    I'd give Gary's 5 stars on the food, but 3 stars on the atmosphere. We've been here a few times, had the buffet (fried chicken, corn, salad, the usual choices), and also ordered off the menu (catfish, fish and chips, burger). The food is very good, always hot and served promptly. However, I doubt if we'll patronize the restaurant again because of one particular waitress. Last time we ate there, she was very loud, and rudely commented the entire time on politics. I assume that every other customer was well known to her and local, but I still think it's a bad idea to make your strong opinions loudly known to the clientele. I don't think it matters if you agree or not, it was a turn off. And frankly, it makes me nervous if I were to disagree-how safe would my food be?!

    This restaurant will always feel like home to me. I love the grilled cheese and the small town country feel!

    Food is pretty good. Hard to get waited on because the waitresses are always gabbing with the regulars.

    Decent food at a decent price. Nothing too crazy but I'd eat there again (and I usually do) ha!

    Husband, myself, and one of the kids joined me for dinner here. I was excited to try this place out…read moresince it reopened. ( I never had the chance to try when it was originally open) They were busy! Which I did expect as downtown belleville had a few things going on. They were so busy that sadly they were out of meatloaf and limited on some hoagie type Sandwich. I ordered the pub burger with the garlic mashed potatoes. The burger itself wasn't bad a little too salty than I'm use to. I swore I asked the waitress for the garnishes to be put on the side but they had it all on the burger. ( no big deal) the garlic mashed potatoes was a staple according to a guest that was talking to us as they left. They were good. Mine came out a little on the almost past the Luke warm stage ( I was a little bummed on that). Our oldest ordered the bone in wings buffalo flavor as a meal ( it's an appetizer) she said those were good. We also shared their French onion dip with chips. Husband had the same pub burger but he got his with steak fries. He wast thrilled that he couldn't order the burger in rare form. He too thought the burger itself was a little on the saltier aside. The prices seemed a little steep on some of the menu. ( expected on steaks and fish) I had to give them a bit of grace with all the chaos going on. Our server was kind and attentive. They didn't have much options for the festive drinks. I ordered their thin mint martini. I'd love to give them another shot in the future when it's less chaotic and they have food we want available. I will say th bar itself is cute. Reminds me of cheers. They had their front area setup with fire pits/heat lamps and tables to enjoy some hot chocolate that was only $3 for reg but if you wanted to "boozie" it up it would depend on the alcohol. They had cookies out from The cookie stroll that they offered for free. Then had a nice set up for those interested in making s'mores! Charlie's is located within historic downtown Belleville on the corner of Abend. There is only street side parking available. Keep in mind they do have breakfast or brunch too on weekends.

    Typical bar food with a little bit of what feels like an upscale twist. Parking was difficult - if…read morenot in the small lot behind the building, only a couple of on street spots, otherwise limited parking across the street in the grass. Service was not bad. Food was mid - maybe 5/10 but we were hungry. Check your food - as there was hair on our bun. Sandwich was replaced but then new bun was burnt. We did not complain because pick your battles. Due to us having a party of 11, split by 3 families, they charged us 18% gratuity, which is fine, but buyer beware - they charge 3% for using a card, which was not listed on the ticket or told to us prior to giving our server the card with ticket. Didn't find out until they ran our card and gave it back for us to sign. Otherwise we would have used cash. Overall, would likely not eat here again.
