Charlie's Place, Harrogate

Tried to call in on Saturday, but sadly it doesn't open until 5. Maybe next time.

A two room pub with a small, dark and intimate bar to one side and a larger brighter room with tables and chairs to the other, there are keg founts and a T-Bar only in the left hand room and no hand pumps, the other room has just a counter. Motorbikes and Hollywood seem to be the theme in the lefthand room and the bench seats have light pipes across the back, I suppose idiosyncratic sums up the place best. The atmosphere is a little bit like what I would have expected in a sixties jazz club the music playing on my visit being from the late fifties/early sixties. It appears popular with a wide range of ages and is very different to the much more traditional New Inn next door. There is also a popular smoking /drinking area at the front.
