They refuse to serve randomly it seems. Or depending on how the server feels about how you look

For about six months, I'd been going Tuesday nights for the karaoke. The surly bartender, Brandi, short-changed me three times, which I diplomatically ignored. Then, one Tuesday night, as I was politely and quietly asking a very rude, very obviously intoxicated woman who had taken my clearly-marked seat at the crowded bar to please give me my seat back (I'm 68), Brandi almost instantly had me thrown out, with no explanation whatsoever, other than something like, 'too bad, you lost your seat'.At least six times previously, other regulars had taken my clearly-marked seat, or otherwise made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome; I felt hurt but said nothing. Finally, I chose to speak up.Read the one-star reviews (click on 'lowest'); other newer, non-regulars have also been thrown out for no good reason. That's illegal. I'm seriously considering suing.The arrogant owner seems to take delight in blaming their patrons for the disgusting, repulsive, prejudicial, and illegal behavior of their own rude, arrogant 'help'.Apparently, the arrogant owner wants the profit, but without any responsibility to conduct his business in a civil, non-prejudicial, legal way.We'll see about that.

Like many posts here, this bar is not welcoming to non-locals. Response posts to negative reviews from the business typically blame the patrons as having too much to drink. I’m sure this happens, but the simple truth is this is a deflection tactic where Charlie O’s only places blame on patrons rather than taking any accountability of their own. I’ve been to Charlie O’s many times and it’s obvious their service is sub-par to say the least. It’s unfortunate this is only one of two late night options in Montpelier. My hope is that the business improves its service to all, not just the regulars who dominate the bar and the pool table.

Not to be deterred by electrical, floor, and other interior post-flood renovations, The Veranda is up and running at Charlie Os. Sign states "takeout food welcome" so I brought my styro-packed snack in from up the street and had outdoor food and beer in the midst of an otherwise downtown recovery zone.

This pub is really cool. Very diverse crowd. Cash only. Live music, punk rock bands.

Cool little place. Been around for a very long time. Like the decor. Got the feeling they really don't like 'outsiders'

Dope dive bar with pool table and live music. It's definitely a vibe.

Best bar, ever. Maybe I'm biased but I also don't suffer fools gladly. I've been there 20 years and there's a good reason. It's not for everyone but it is for the most genuine and kind folks I've ever known. If you don't like it, perhaps you're why

Catering to only a certain type people .. a lot of discrimination going on just because you are older , not the right color , or religion . They will not serve you if you look different , and you can not stay if they will not serve you . Go figure , you are not a threat and not being rude or disrespectful.
