4 Stars: Inexpensive even for a diner (by Amber K.)

If you're looking for a little diner food, Charlie's is the place. Diners are somewhat hard to find in the Boston area and this is one of the best. The prices are incredible - $11 for 2 large lobster rolls! The atmosphere is fun as well and it is conveniently located near Harvard Square.

Yeah, so the service often isn't great and for the most part Charlie's isn't overwhelmingly special. But the lobster roll deal is about the best around. You can get a double and it's still affordable. Not the best quality lobster roll - a little heavy on the mayo - but certainly the best deal. Throw in a side of waffle fries, among others, and you're good to go.

4 Stars: fun night out (by Jennifer F.)

I went to Charlie's on a karaoke night just before Thanksgiving and while it was a fun night, it gets really crowded really quickly. The bartenders were serving up the drinks as fast as you can make your way to the bar but if you're not a fan of crowded bars, pick your night carefully!

A two level diner fare weekend hipster joint with cheap, tasty food and the best jukebox in town (upstairs). Downstairs is more of a diner while upstairs feels more like a bar.

Lots of weekly goings on upstairs including trivia (Sunday) live music (Monday) and karaoke (Tuesday).

Gets pretty crowded on the weekends.
