Charlie Chan's Bar and Bottle Shop reviews

4 Star Review by Cambo Ford

You can get great Thai food here but try to get in early to get a seat. During busy times you can always find somewhere out back where the food is prepared. Good prices and they have happy hours which you should check online. Ok selection of beers and next to the tram stop.

2 Star Review by AJ C

I had the pork bbq with rice for dinner but I only had like a quarter of the meal. It doesn't taste freshly cooked. The colour doesn't appeal me too as I am not a fan of raw food tbh especially meat.

2 Star Review by Thiptida Jesus

The food and atmosphere were good. However, the fact that the waitress took the glasses away while we were drinking ruined the experience. Please improve your service.

4 Star Review by Rebecca Farr

Probably the best bar within a short walk to the Capitol Theatre. Great prices for drinks. Fantastic happy hour. Thai food that you acquire from the back takeaway is pretty delicious too. Loved the salt and pepper squid. Great bar snack

1 Star Review by Amanda Harmour

After attempting to navigate the rather large step from the lightrail platform with my disabled leg to cross the line to come to your establishment at 8.30 this evening I was refused entry with my husband and parents for being apparently "intoxicated" because of the way he witnessed me navigating the large step. When I explained to the doorman and showed him my leg . He was extremely rude. Left embarrassed and upset. Thanks you've lost our business this evening .

5 Star Review by Declan Nigel Pritchard

Great bar and restaurant, predominantly Thai, right on the Chinatown tram stop.

Not sure about the bar but the thai food here is LIT!! So authentic, delicious, reasonable price and served relatively quickly. I go to thai restaurants for their authenticity so I dont mind the street food vibe. Their papaya salad is a must! Have visited weekly for past 2 months.
