We have been here several times and always enjoy our experience. We like to sit upstairs because it is more quiet than the main level where the bar is. You can walk on an outside deck which has beautiful views. Nice place to take a picture. Our serve
Over priced and overrated.
Cocktails were average, fish dinner(cod) priced at. $42? Not sure what's going on with the astroturf on the ground level... our experience was really very average.

I am giving this 5 stars because it is an excellent place to eat for tiny shore town. Charlie's is a bit loud for me and I have seen celebrities here which is reason for me not to go. The food is very good, drinks are very good, service is always goo

Lovely evening with 3 friends.
Decor was tasteful, noise level was reasonable, service was a bit slow, wait staff was friendly & knowledgeable. I had two appetizers, the Asian salad was excellent and elevated, however the lolly-pop lamb chops were very over cooked. No pink

Resting on Their Laurels
Charlie's of Bay Head enjoys a beautiful location, vibrant bar scene, and a better than average menu. It's really the only game in town from Point Pleasant to Seaside on the Jersey Shore, and, therein, lies the problem. They really don't have to tr

Long-time customer. They seem to losing their focus on the fundamentals. Major disappointment tonight. Food great; service sucked. Defiantly in the penalty box.

Horrible customer service by General Manager Cory
We have been going to Charlieโs of Bay Head since the third night it opened back in 2017. We usually go on average once a week and sometimes twice a week during the summer and make special trips down the shore in the winter just to go to Charlieโ

We made reservations about 6 weeks in advance and we were excited to try this place. We are locals so Charle's has a reputation for being a fine dining restaurant in the area. As soon as we walked in we were scowled at by 3 young hostesses. They voca

Fantastic views great food drinks all around great experience would recommend for anyone
I went here for dinner about a year ago and it was amazing.
I went back a few months later and again a day ago and both times I was so disappointed in the food. I always heard such good things before going and I love the location and feel of the place. However, it's not consistent enough in my own experience.
Delicious! The ambience is the best part! So pretty!

I am writing this from a different perspective. Usually, write-ups are from customers who have eaten at Charlieโs of Bayhead. I am a server coming from a different direction. Customers usually have the input on a restaurant, but do you ever thin
High end new beautiful inside of the place. The food is lagging behind a bit.
This place is a stand alone structure and a perfect one at that. Itโs a fully high end renovated restaurant with very expensive and high end everything. So that part is perfect! When it comes to food, well, not so fast, captain. It took a very
Connect with users posting reservations for Charlies of Bay Head
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Charlies of Bay Head. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Charlies of Bay Head at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Charlies of Bay Head page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Charlies of Bay Head to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Charlies of Bay Head!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
