Sorry! Restaurant closed. Chicken Charlie's was a restaurant in Kalamazoo, Michigan, that
was popular with families in the 1950s. It was located on the corner of Whites Road and South
Westnedge Avenue.
Chicken Charlie's had memorable cole slaw-- sweet, tangy, and very finely shredded.
The restaurant decor featured "picture windows" that were actually huge blow-up photos of exotic locales such as Cypress Gardens. They were set into the wood-paneled wall complete with recessed lighting. Click on the card to enlarge it and you will see one of these windows.

In case you are waxing nostalgic about some favorite spots in Kalamazoo that are no longer around...
