it definitely is in Britslang, but with an added 'r' - although it had it's origins in the working classes and is now fairly outdated: 'do ya fancy a cuppa char?
This also got extended to refer to the daily help who was sometimes called the 'char-lady'. P'raps that was 'cause they were notorious for drinking tea all day instead of working ;-)
