| Equal parts old-school diner and neighborhood coffee shop, Charlie's Sandwich Shoppe embodies what the South End was before the moneymakers moved into their brownstones. Cops, cabbies and old-timers mingle with hipsters at the timeless counter stools and communal tables. Omelets and pancakes that outsize their plates are legendary, as is the turkey hash; the sandwiches are unwieldy, wallet-friendly wonders. Come see how the other half of the South End lives---every bit as good as if not better than the swanky half. Since 1927, no less. |
