Since
1927
Charlie's Sandwich Shoppe is a landmark restaurant in Boston's South End.
​
"The 32-seat diner became an institution as it shunned the accepted norms of segregation after it opened in 1927, embracing an inclusive, predominantly African American clientele. Throughout its history, it served jazz musicians, cops, athletes, mafioso, entertainers, politicians—even sitting presidents—and some of Boston’s most notable chefs." -The Boston Globe

In 2005, it won a James Beard Award, a distinction given for excellence in cuisine.
