The Scene – Mountain Charley's serves up a hillbilly atmosphere for music-loving locals in their mid-30's who come to relax with a beer and take in a healthy dose of rock or blues. Once you find the stairs around back, grab a seat under the festive, orange party lights adorning countless hunts of the past, or saddle up to the dimly lit bar area. A creaky wooden stage provides the perfect backdrop for vintage tweed amplifiers and the guitarists that make them sing. – – The Draw – Once you've had a glimpse of namesake Charlie McKiernan's John Wayne-esque oil painting on…

Best Little Bar in the area!!!
by cblueyes329
Mountain Charley's is a small western style bar in downtown Los Gatos. It's got a wonderful atmosphere and is a very relaxing bar with great music! The bartenders and other staff are very talkative and friendly. Drink prices are a lot lower than most other places. Beers are average at $4.50... Mixed drinks range around $5-$6. unless there is a drink special and they drop the price. Tuesday nights is Country Karaoke and there are a lot of very talented people that show for that night. It's a lot of fun. The place is under new owners and they are doing a great job with the place. There was no cover charge. It's got a nice dance floor too. Overall a great place to chill with friends!! Frequently promoted by the local KRTY country radio station.
- Pros: Great atmosphere, music, people...not too fast paced.
- Cons: could use a bigger dance floor...but it works.

NEW OWNERSHIP
by chriss78
Ever since the recent change of ownership Mt. Charlies is not the same. The drinks prices are now overpriced and the service is not the same it feels like they have begun to change the atmosphere. As a longtime regular I think I am going to find a new place to grab a drink. See for yourself but I highly recommend not wasting your time in a crowded place with over priced alcohol and bad service to boot. Just my opinion!!!
