Just returned from the Phoenix area for a mini-getaway and went to check out Charlie's. Even though we went on a Monday night we had a blast watching people and it was underwear night. haha.
Anyways, the place is huge, no cover, lots of parking, and also a huge patio that even has a volleyball court.
The drinks were cheap and it was my first time Phoenix so if you use a credit card they don't run a "tab" per se. Instead they charge your card $20 minus a $1 "fee" then you basically get $19 dollars back to use for drinks. I know it sounds weird but I guess it's how they do things in Arizona.
FYI - If you're looking for a trendy place, this is not it. Also I did'nt hear any country music even though I guess it's supposed to be country? Last, the crowd was mixed which is great since we did'nt know how to dress for this place but t-shirt and jeans are perfect.
In short, we had fun even for a Monday night, the place is big, and drinks were cheap. Can't ask for me than that.
