THE BEST! Stumbled upon this place when it was raining really bad and it was 100% WORTH it! The chicken philly is to die for and I will be back!

My LAWD TODAY! First time here. Had the Hot Garlic Lemon Pepper Wings with Cajun Ranch Cheese Fries. Food was SUPER FRESH, FLAVORFUL, and DELICIOUS. Had the Watermelon drink. It’s good but put you a few ice cubes in there cause it’s addictive. I’ll definitely be back and the lady brought my food to me being that I’m in a wheelchair. They can get my money anytime

Bruh,I got the Garlic Parmesan Wings,Philly Fries,Lemon Pepper wings,Philly Steak & Okra on my time there. Everything was good & the wife & hubby were very nice & courteous,can't wait to come back again. And they took a brothers Pic,Thanks for a great experience....

Not only are they are hard working power couple. The atmosphere when you walk in is welcoming, full of laughter and joy. By now I've been to Charlie P's several times to enjoy a fresh, flavor packed meal. The first time I ordered a double cheese burger meal with loaded fries. I also back difficult when I ask for a customized order. They put me first cooked my food exactly how I asked, I wasn't ready though. Like I said,I had two orders and one was for someone else. They asked me to try a bite and it was sooo good, I ate of somebody else food too. I had too. And bought them another plate cause I decided I wanted both. They had customized homemade juices to pop you mouth to. They so good (juices). The Price vs. Food Quality is well worth your visit. I would recommend Charlie P's Fish &Wings to anybody. You don't have to wait long, did i mention that. They cater also. I'm carving now!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Catfish in Alabama! I stopped by Charlie P’s Fish & Wings and let me tell you — their catfish is unmatched! Perfectly seasoned, fried golden, and crispy on the outside while staying tender and flavorful inside. You can tell it’s cooked fresh with love every time. The flavor takes you right back to that good old Southern home-cooked taste. The portions are generous, the service is friendly, and the atmosphere feels like family. If you’re anywhere near Lipscomb or Birmingham, do yourself a favor and grab a catfish plate from Charlie P’s — you’ll be hooked from the first bite!

Really enjoyed my food. I believe they fried the best piece of catfish I've had in a very long time.
