We were looking for a quick dinner and ended up here at Charlie's BBQ. It's a small, seemingly family owned bbq place. Smelled good. My husband and I ordered bbq plates, while scooping bbq onto the bun provided I came across a long hair in the meat. My husband took the plate back up to the counter and they made a new plate. I did notice the girl preparing the BBQ had her hair down and when my husband walked back to the table with the new plate the 2 young girls got together and the cashier tied the girls hair up.
