Charlie's Sandwich Shoppe
Open since 1927, Charlie’s Sandwich Shoppe has been serving as a hot breakfast spot and neighborhood coffe shop. It’s known for serving African-American jazz musicians during the era of segregated hotels.
It’s a small place but has seen many people. Famous people like Sammy Davis, Jr. and Vice President Al Gore have been known to eat there. I personally enjoy going there for the history of the place. If you do decide to eat at Charlie’s, remember there are no bathrooms!
