"The place is great, the menu top, prices fair. On the other hand, the service was lousy. When people order trays and they PAY, the least they can do is give napkins and cutlery and not blow when asked, this message is especially aimed at the short black-haired English-speaking miss. We're here to have a good time, not teach you your job. It's good to hire pretty little girls, it would be even better if they know how to serve... of course this doesn't concern all the waitresses, some are adorable and professional."

Came here for lunch. A little hard to find as you have to go up from the open area near the museum. Food was good, service was at best okay and that might be generous.

The music is good, the atmosphere is good, the coffee is good, the staff are very friendly and I saw young people enjoying hamburgers which looked very good. In addition to this there is a beautiful terrace.

beautiful atmosphere and excellent burger. cozy place from the beaten tracks with a beautiful terrace opposite riponne market. only negative point, there are many more smokers on the terrace. burgers are excellent with fresh juicy meat and self-made kartoffeln scheibenfries instead of the usual hair...Fries they find students meeting families with high net worth single persons and rare tourist.

"Il y a autant de variétés de pizza et de type locaux qu'il y a diversités culturelles en Italie.Ici elles sont fines, moyennes, au fond biscuité, probablement du type des Pouilles, je ne suis pas expert, demandez au patron. La pizza que j'ai mangé était bonne, le salami dessus délicieux. Personnellement je préfère les pizza très fine non huilée ou plus épaisse avec...., mais ça c'est qu'une question de goût.... ma che c.. vuoi?!!L'entrée au Gambas et avocat citron (ou lime?), coriandre.... est vraiment magnifique (attention toutefois à votre porte-monnaie!) et le tiramisu également.C'est une pizzeria du quartier, qui a gardé l'authenticité des pizzerie d'Italie très présentes dans les années 80 à Lausanne, ceci malgré la crise et aujourd'hui la concurrence d'une surpopulation de nouveaux restaurants qui se greffent à 10 mètres de vous et ne durent pas longtemps, juste l'histoire de bousculer ceux qui sont déjà en place,sans que la police du commerce ne daigne intervenir! La multiplicité entraîne la baisse de qualité!Revenons au CharbonEn résumé, la cuisine est bonne voir excellente, le personnel est très sympathique, le service rapide et très bien coordonné, le patron a de l'humour. Des restaurants authentique et vintage de ce style sont de plus en plus rares. Ah j'oubliais! La terrasse, au soleil jusqu'à 6h30 depuis début avril pour le café et le soir quand la circulation diminue est un vrai régal avec vue sur la quartier."
