Charlie's Cafe - Breakfast restaurant in Grass Valley - 145 S Auburn St #6516, USA

This is one of my favorite breakfast places! We had family in from out of town and met for breakfast/lunch - a party of 8. We were seated right away and served quickly. Half the group all ordered the fried chicken sandwich. Holy cow! They looked amazing! Huge! Everyone was very happy! Can’t wait to go back and try it myself. I ordered Eggs Benedict and wasn’t disappointed. Everything is so good and the kitschy decor is fun to look at while waiting for your food.

Great spot often overlooked. We had no wait though it was fairly crowded. My chilquiles were fabulous, and my sweetie's biscuits & gravy were too big for him to finish. I had two bloody marys and they were good & spicy, served with a delicious piece of crispy bacon and sweet pickle slices - good to the last drop! Great little place for breakfast & lunch.

We waited 30 min for A table, 90 minutes for food. Our waitresses were mostly all rude, neglectful, didn't check in with us about our food. didn't thank us when the check was delivered. Waffles were undercooked. Chilequiles were NOT, they were basic corn chips with eggs and basic green salsa on top, veggie scramble was tiny. So sad. Trying to have a sweet Lil family brunch. Bummer. At least we had good company.

I've been eating at this place a little after I moved up here and it's my favorite breakfast place. The corned beef hash is excellent and you can tell that they actually make the corned beef themselves. As a vegetarian, my Wife loves this place as well for breakfast. Her favorites are the pecan waffle or oatmeal pancakes. Prices are very fair as well with great service.

Waited about 10 minutes for a table. They were not very busy. Then it was over 30 minutes for the food to show up after we ordered. Food is good but not a 30 minute kinda good. The recent reviews seem to be most relevant. Disappointing.

Portions are too small. I do leave hungry. But beautiful people. I will say the food is the boom. I just wish a little bigger. And the sausage patties, share the love (grease) just half size bigger. Love the place, worthy of the wait.

I've eaten here three times now. The last time wast planned but the sushi place next door wasnt open for lunch. We arrived close to closing time but never felt rushed or put off. I ordered the pepper jack burger with sweet potato fries and every bite was spectacular. I was sad when my plate empty! My daughter had their fish and chips. It looked perfect! A golden fried outside, perfectly flakey fish. She did comment that the batter could've used some flavor to it. We will definitely remember to return more often!

Great restaurant. I came for breakfast. Friendly staff, roomy, quick service, relaxed atmosphere with a solid menu. And frequent coffee refills. The fella in the corner makes sure we all behave - without saying a word.
