Cheap Charlies

The food was amazing. We are visiting from illinois and this place hit the spot for our hunger. The staff are extremely nice and the service was amazing and fast. We had a wonderful conversation with the woman who i assume runs the place or is a waiter. The cook was amazing at what they did, 10/10 Recommend!

Recently moved to Rochester and kept seeing the pig on the building. Finally came for breakfast and so glad. Super friendly server. Both my daughter and I enjoyed our breakfast. Pancake super fluffy and yummy. Will be back soon

Old school diner type of spotI had fast hot homemade meatloaf plate for lunch. Breakfast menu looks good! Waitress was friendly. Parking under large pig on roof. Lol

Our favorite breakfast spot in Rochester! I've been going since I was a kid, over 20 years! The pancakes are massive and the country fried steak is soooo delicious! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great breakfast spot around town that istn too expensive or boujee.

The food was amazing I ordered the one pancake with two eggs (sunny side up)and I got it in like only 8-9 min grandmas and Hollandberry Pannekoeken can not catch up

Though I got recommended cheap Charlie's as a great breakfast spot in town, I was disappointed after actually receiving my food. The pancake I ordered had little areas that were discolored(black specks) and the sausage and gravy that I ordered was extremely bland and didn't seem to contain any sausage. Though it was definitely affordable, I don't plan on going there again.

This shit is so ass I thought I saw a 8 legged parasite floating in my water as it was from a sink that seemed like it was cut out of a bathroom.

I'm just confused. We ordered 2 of the combo plates. One including pancakes, eggs and sausage. The other included eggs and pancakes. We got two sides of hash browns. We asked if they had fruit to put on the pancakes. They said no. The server offered chocolate chips, so we accepted. When we were ready to pay, our server calculated the total to be $41, and we both agreed that that was not correct. Way too high. So she grabbed the coworker who just so happened to the owner. When the owner took over and tried to calculate the total, she told us our total would be $49. No. No way. She told us that because we got chocolate chip pancakes we got a different special. She tried to explain how she settled on the $50 total, but it made no sense. After looking on at the menu it should have been $22.96 (7.99 for pancake & egg combo plate, $8.99 for the pancake, egg and sausage combo plate, and 2.99x2 for two sides of hash browns) I took a picture of the menu and the bill slip to do the math yet again when I got home, and I am correct. The owner was trying to charge us an extra $30 to add chocolate chips to our pancakes. She was trying to charge 11.75 for EACH pancake. Just... what??? We were charged a total of $29 after conversing with the owner for quite a few minutes. So we were still overcharged, but we just wanted to leave at that point. Also, sometimes a greasy diner is just what you want. This wasn't just greasy, this was dirty. The salt and pepper shakers were filthy. There were yellow clumps in the sugar shaker, which was also filthy. I didn't realize these were inside the shaker until one of the clumps fell into my coffee! Ew.TLDR: Don't make any substitutions unless you'd like to pay a $30 up charge for chocolate chips, and maybe just say away...

MI am a local Muslim from here in Rochester, I have to say that this has to be one of the worst restaurant experiences I have been through at a breakfast spot. The server lady was insanely disrespectful and took a used coffee cup from a table she cleaned and put it BACK INTO THE POT! Not only that but I am Muslim and found a piece of bacon in my pancakes which is against my religion to eat maybe let's pay more

Me and my basketball team came in for breakfast after our morning practice. The waitress was really rude and gave us a side eye or smacked her lips whenever we asked for something, even simple things. Also we saw her grab the coffee off of a table that had left and put it back in the pitcher and on the stove to heat up. Disgusting. DO NOT RECOMMEND
