Good time charlies 0.5 rating By Billy ( Dec 14, 2016) Want a good time-Don't go here! Worst owner's i have ever met.Escalated a simple request into a down and out shouting match!Looks like an unmade bed-nasty and not smart!His wife just as a bad-Told an 80 year old woman waiting to enter that she could not have a menu to look at-we ...Read More open at three and slammed the door.My credentials-30 + years in the hospitality industry-managed the finest restaurant in my home town.Sales rep in the NY and Boston market(one years sales of 2.2 million dollars).

Safe warm beaches! 2.5 rating By facebookgamer1234 ( Jun 08, 2012) Englewood is a very small town located on amazing warm beaches. The town itself is quite small with a couple banks, grocery stores and a little "downtown" strip that has a good restaurant, coffee shop, gifts and antique stores. Its not a hopping place as the average age of the ...Read More town is 68. But it does offer classic car shows, a farmers market, and a VERY safe environment! The nice thing is if you get bored its right along the border of Venice FL which has a couple more things: Peir 1 Imports, Super WalMart, Target, Staples, ect. It also is only 20-40 minutes away from Port Charlotte, North Port, and Sarasota. Bigger areas where you can get a bit more action: shopping, theaters, art ect. Seems as though most places here are "chains", not too much in the way of culture unless you're used to that kind of thing. Its quite a slow relaxed place, beach bums with no makeup, shorts and flip flops. The warm beach and ocean is amazing. its a wonderful place to retire. If you're thinking about having a family here, it is VERY safe, but you better consider joining a church or something to meet some other younger people! :) Read Less
