Cheap food here! They do noodle specials and it gets even better value. The food is average but its cheap and the bar has drink specials for $10.
Encountered an unpleasant experience with a male bartender who was Asian, looked quite young, with shorter appearance (worked on Saturday night around 11PM). He was extremely unprofessional and arrogant as he intentionally questioned my ID – asking personal questions like why I am not on my full licence etc and making a judgement like that. First time it happened and I felt offended and discriminated against as it was due to medical conditions. Also witnessed him requesting sexual favours from a female customer who was buying a drink from him. These kind of people should not be employable – issues like these need to be handled within a workplace.
It seems that they also serve meals.But we only come here for shot.Flaming Charlie is a shot with flame,so we all take a video for it,haha.The shots have different flavor,sweet or strong,just depend on your choice.A little bit crowded during midnight.
Very surprised that the food here is quite good! It just has this seedy feel from the outside BUT don’t let that stop you! A sports bar feel, there is plenty of room to chill for pre drinks and grab a decent feed.
To find out how lousy pubs along south end of George Street can get, we entered Charlie Chan. The small bar almost resembles a home bar with small collection of bottles sit on mirrored shelf. A handful beer taps open up to a small L shape drinking area. The miniature sized drink options and sitting area bring second guess if you are really in a commercial establishment. The back of the pub (if you can call it a pub) joins a Thai restaurant. The decor is something like out of a 80s Hongkong movie. My husband tried to order one fifty lashes on tap but the Asian bartender simply couldn’t understand him. We resolved to use finger pointing to overcome the language barrier. We came to find out how shit pubs on this part of George street can be and have a laugh, we succeeded! thernbdiary.com
Price of food was higher than that of, say, Newtown but quality was no worse. The service was efficient, provided you had your order ready, and polite; however, service could be rather slow. Ambience was understated, being that it is a tiny open-air dining area at the back of the pub/bar. If you are looking for a quick meal, we recommend Mrs. Chan’s Kitchen.
Wow what a little hidden gem, although no food were tasted here but their bar was phenomenal. The bartender definitely knew her drinks inside-out and served us well throughout the night. The prices were very reasonable too and great ambient atmosphere while chilling out.
