What Fred P likes about Charley's Tavern:
I absolutely love this place! I didn't try the food, so I can't comment on that, but the atmosphere is fantastic and the live entertainment was perfect. I saw the band Duckface perform, and everyone was singing, dancing, and having a great time. View all feedback. What gab c doesn't like about Charley's Tavern:
I had a great time here last month, but my experience took a turn for the worse tonight. The bouncers were quite rude and insisted that they couldn't accept out-of-state IDs. One even told me I was “lucky” they were returning mine. They didn't have a scanner to verify anything and made a big deal out of what should have been a non-issue. If you don’t have a New Jersey license, I suggest you think twice before coming... View all feedback.

What a cute please to grab a drink and some food while listening to a band... if you're not in a rush... they need to hire more help or better help.

Great atmosphere with local taste and a real fun outdoor oasis with a good band! I didn't eat this time, but last time the food was very good.
