Whenever I feel like I am in one of my jazzy-funky-soulish moods I know I need to get me a fix of Char's. I only discovered them last year or so, but I was instantly hooked. I never knew a place like...

This place is awesome! The band ruled, the bartenders were friendly, the drinks were cheap, and the crowd was so fun. I will definitely go back to Chars.

I've been a Char's patron since before we were legal to be in there (many years ago, previous owners). It has always been a lively place with a diverse crowd of aging black hep-cats, college students,...

As much as I love this place, I really think I'm twenty years too young to be here. I really love the genres played here and I consider myself pretty well versed in the music. I can't figure out if...

"Nobody leaves this place without singin' the Blues." I felt nothing like Chris Parker when I set foot in Char's. Let's just say I did not have the 'Babysitting Blues'. The way pimped-out...
