Located in the historic Charles Street neighborhood, Charlie's Pub was first introduced in 2017. When Julian Jerome sells Derek Wells Media, he uses the severance money to purchase the pub. The original owner was revealed to be a man named Charlie Delaney.
A few weeks into Julian's ownership, Sonny Corinthos forces Julian to serve his product Corinthos Coffee. Julian eventually grew tired of Sonny's threats and refused to serve his coffee anymore. The Pub has also become well known for its famous avocado toast, a molten chocolate cake called Chocolate Volcano (which Oscar enjoyed up to his death), and pizza oven.
In 2018, it was revealed that Charlie Delaney, was a gambling friend of Mike Corbin. In 1985, when Sonny was working for Joe Scully, Mike witnessed him burying a body in Croton, New York. Wanting to protect his son, Mike enlisted Charlie to have the body moved and buried under the foundation of the Pub. He then tossed the gun that Sonny buried with the body into a lake.
In October 2018, Julian reluctantly hired Kristina Corinthos-Davis as a bartender. Oscar Nero-Quartermaine also volunteered as a busboy for the pub until his death the following year. Daisy Kwan waited tables while recruiting members to the "DoD."
In August 2019, Julian and his long-term girlfriend Kim decided to move to Manhattan to have a fresh start away from her son Oscar's death. Julian bought a restaurant there and sold Charlie's to his son Leo's mom Olivia Quartermaine. When they broke up and Kim left town, the sale was cancelled, and Julian kept his pub.
After Julian's death in December 2020, Ava finds out Julian left the pub to her - and she told Alexis that Kristina would always have a job there. Ava and Nikolas are later surprised by Julian's ex-wife Alexis, at the pub. Still drinking, Alexis opens up about her addiction to Julian and their toxic relationship, telling her nephew and his wife that she hopes it's not a cautionary tale for them.
In September 2021, as Ava decided to leave town for a while, she put the bar up for sale, and gave the keys to Kristina, making her the new manager. That same month, Sonny Corinthos and Nina Reeves jointly buy the pub and give it to their close friend, the newly widowed Phyllis Caulfield. Eventually, Sonny hands over the deed to Phyllis. She mostly works behind the scenes, while Kristina essentially runs the pub.
The pub begins to hold karaoke nights, and on February 22, 2024, Spinelli, Maxie Jones, Cody Bell, and Sasha Corbin enjoy an evening singing, with Spinelli and Maxie sharing a kiss.
